@HuskersMN He actually might be our guy, Jim. Trey is the one that makes it real. But Colandrea might be the one we remember.

@HuskerPod I don’t know if this is gonna help, we got way better wr guys now. Way. Better. That was a bad day. But it’s over.

[Eric Sandage @esandage]

@HuskGuys I laughed. They didn’t put us where we are. They just ALL sucked at putting us somewhere else.

These people are ridiculous.
They have lost all tethers to a sense of self. Their entire identity now relies on this treasonous hate of America. They make up fantasies of how horrible America never was to justify their need to "fight tyranny." They have no identity but this. And they cling to it with a death grip, because they have nothing else.
None of it is true. Not the fantasy about America about which she is shrieking, not her identity of believing herself to be some "hero" in a movie about an oppressive government, and not the resulting congress-free, senate-free, President-free, childish (and completely chaotic) future she sees for this country.
She is an infant.
She and others like her will not get their way. Not even close. If you have a modicum of common sense, it's time to let your line in the sand about tolerance be made known.
Myself, I have a limit to tolerance.
I have a limit to patience.
I know there is a limit to free speech.
If your plan is to tear down the United States of America, if your plan is treason, I will not tolerate you, I will have zero patience for you, and I will not defend your right to free speech.

Je suis Français.

Ma boîte est américaine.

Et aujourd'hui, 4 juillet, jour où l'Amérique fête ses 250 ans, je veux dire les choses simplement : j'aime les États-Unis.

Pas par posture. Par lucidité.

Parce que vous avez gardé ce que l'Occident a produit de meilleur, et que trop d'Européens ont oublié.
Vous respectez la création de valeur. Chez vous, réussir n'est pas un péché à expier mais une preuve qu'on a rendu service au monde. Votre rapport à l'argent est sain : ce n'est pas une honte, c'est de l'énergie qu'on remet en mouvement.

Vous êtes des joueurs, pas des victimes. Quand quelque chose casse, vous demandez « comment on répare » pas « qui est le coupable ». L'Europe, elle, a fait de la plainte un sport national et de la victimisation une identité. C'est notre vraie maladie.

Vous incarnez encore les valeurs de l'Occident. Le dépassement de soi. La liberté individuelle. Et qu'on l'oublie jamais le fun. Un peuple qui ne sait plus jouer, rêver grand et rire de lui-même est un peuple qui a déjà commencé à mourir.

Vous avez bâti les meilleures technologies des 40 dernières années. Internet, le mobile, le cloud, le spatial, l'IA. Pendant que d'autres écrivaient des rapports sur l'innovation, vous la livriez.
Maintenant, deux conseils. De quelqu'un qui vous aime.

Méfiez-vous du poison communiste qui s'infiltre chez vous. Il ne porte plus l'uniforme rouge. Il a muté. Décroissance, wokisme, globalisme : mille visages, une seule logique culpabiliser le fort, punir le créateur, dissoudre l'individu dans la masse. Ne le laissez pas entrer par la porte de derrière au nom de la vertu.

Continuez d'accélérer.

Vous n'êtes pas qu'un pays, vous êtes le dernier grand accélérateur de la civilisation. Créez les conditions pour que l'Occident finisse par se réunir autour de trois piliers : la propriété, la liberté individuelle, le capitalisme. Vous en êtes le moteur. Mais n'oubliez jamais que l'Europe reste votre socle culturel vos racines sont ici.

Alors joyeux anniversaire, l'Amérique. Restez joueurs. Restez libres. Restez debout.

Au travail. 🇺🇸

[Jim Craig @JimCraigUSA]

I'm forever grateful to have worn the USA across my chest and to represent a country built on courage, sacrifice, and opportunity.
Today, we honor those who made our freedom possible and celebrate what unites us.
Happy Fourth of July. 🇺🇸

We’ve been doing the “edgy antihero” thing for decades.

The hunger in culture right now isn’t for more of that.

It’s for this kind of wholesome sincerity— the kind we were brainwashed to believe was “cringe.”

We’re ready for heroes to actually be heroes again.

From Martin Iles, reposted:

Having lived in the USA for nearly two years, I've realised something.

The USA and the remainder of the Western world are no longer aligned.

We all laugh and mock when the Americans say, "Freedom!" because we truly think we're as free as they are.

Wrong. We're not. Not even close. The laws, the mindset, and the behaviour, is totally different in this regard.

Most of all, the governments are totally different. The USA's convictions around core freedoms are on a scale we do not share.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump wins the popular vote, the electoral college, the House, and the Senate... a man who, in every other Western country, is held in open derision, if not contempt.

For these and other reasons, we are not the same.

Yet the West, including Australia, fully expect to rely on the USA for our very survival.

If the world turns bad (which will happen - only a question of time), then the whole West, without America, is toast.

So, you may ask - if we're not very aligned ideologically, then it must be that we bring something to the party militarily?

Well, no... actually... we don't matter that much militarily.

The USA has about 470 ships in its navy, including 11 aircraft carriers, 69 submarines, 75 destroyers... plus 110 new ships in the pipeline.

Australia has about 30, including 3 destroyers, 7 frigates and 7 outdated submarines. The UK does a little better, with about 60.

Meanwhile, the US has over 14,000 military aircraft. A staggering number.

Australia has 252 military aircraft. The UK has 556.

The US army has just shy of 1,000,000 uniformed personnel in its military. Australia has about 45,000.
The USA spends 3.4% ($968 billion) of its GDP on defence. Australia spends 2% ($36.4 billion). The US spends as much as the next 15 largest military-spending countries (including China) combined.

The USA has a fighting culture. The men shoot things (a lot) and hunt things, the veterans get favoured in everything from parking spots to boarding planes. A uniformed young man is thanked in the street a dozen times a day.

"Oh, the Americans and their guns!" we say, in our smug way. Yes, they have a warrior culture. We do not. We don't have to, because we're a leech on theirs.

How many young British men are willing to fight for their country? Now ask the same regarding young American men. The difference is about as wide as it could be.

Militarily, we don't offer squat.

Meanwhile, look at the way Australia works against America's interests by loving on China. China made us rich and we stay close. This is a Marxist regime with expansionist aims.

Again, you have to spend time in the USA to realise just how vast a gulf there is between us on China.

Europe, too. They let China have their way everywhere from Germany to Greenland, all the while importing Islam and sending their own people to court for saying hurty words.

Somehow, we have landed the deal of a lifetime with the USA that says, "when the baddies come, you'll save us ok?" Because we can't save ourselves.

And we live in peace. But we keep gnawing away at freedoms, keep enabling China, and get flabby and disinterested about our military because Uncle Sam's got it.

And, let's be honest, Americans are widely looked down on. To add insult to injury, we don't think that highly of our protectors.

So, the USA is finally saying "enough." I am here, I can tell you what the vibe is, and that's it. Trump is doing what people want in this regard. They're over it.

And we come across all shocked and hard done by. We behave like people with no self-insight at all.

Yes, the global alliance system is all over the place now. From America's perspective, it's about time.

And I must say, though I be a proud Australian, I am forced to agree. Something has to change.

[The Critical Drinker @TheCriticalDri2]

Lol, that's interesting since he was VERY excited to work with me and claimed to be a big fan when it benefitted him. Now that he's trying to break into TV, suddenly he's filled with "regret". Good luck sucking all that Hollywood dick, buddy. Hope it's worth it.

[Mr. Star Spangled MAGA @4thOfJuly365]

I’m sick and tired of it all.

I’m sick and tired of traitors wearing suits and smiles while they sell us out.

Sick and tired of Candace Owens turning every headline into her personal drama tour.

Sick and tired of hearing about Joe Kent, somebody I’d never heard of three days ago.

I’m tired of MTG's Botox sunburnt face and that cheap boxed bleach job she runs through her hair every six weeks.

Tired of Thomas Massie’s Jerry curls looking like he just rolled out of a 70s porn set.

Tired of Tucker Carlson and that weird thousand-yard stare he does like he’s reading your soul.

And this ain’t just a Republican problem.

I’m calling balls and strikes on everybody.

I’m sick and tired of the Krassensteins flooding my feed with their cry-baby rage-bait, racking up hundreds of thousands of impressions while the rest of us grind.

Tired of seeing JoJoFromJerz's face caked in enough makeup to spackle a house.

Tired of seeing that thing on Ilhan Omar’s head.

Tired of Jasmine Crockett’s non-stop loud mouth and AOC’s horse face lecturing me about “systemic” everything while she flies first class.

I’m sick and tired of people who break the actual law never seeing the inside of a jail cell.

Fraudsters, corrupt politicians, pedophiles on the Epstein list.

I’m sick and tired of hearing “no one is above the law” when it’s crystal clear that everyone is above the law except you and me.

I’m tired of good things happening to bad people.

Tired of the worst accounts on X blowing up while honest voices and talent gets buried.

Tired of Hollywood elites and late-night “comedians” telling me how to live while they snort coke in mansions.

Tired of corporate suits pushing DEI quotas that punish hard work and reward skin color.

Tired of teachers in schools sneaking in agendas instead of teaching real history.

I’m sick and tired of people telling me to live my life a certain way so I don’t “offend” folks with mental illness.

Biology isn’t bigotry, and I’m not rewriting reality to make anyone feel special.

But what I’m sick and tired of the MOST…are the people who hate America.

The ones who burn the flag, kneel for the anthem, and scream that this country was founded on “stolen land” and “oppression.”

The ones who flood across our border, take our benefits, wave their own flags, and then trash the greatest nation God ever gave man.

The ones in Congress who call America “racist” while cashing taxpayer checks.

The so-called journalists who apologize for every American achievement like it’s a crime to be exceptional.

These America-haters don’t love freedom, they fear it.

They don’t want opportunity, they want equality of misery.

They push socialism in our schools, woke nonsense in our military, and shame in our hearts because a strong, proud America stands in the way of their globalist wet dream.

Well I’m here to tell you...

I love this country with every fiber of my being.

I love the dirt in my backyard, the fireworks on the Fourth, the smell of barbecue on a summer night, and the fact that my three kids can still dream bigger than anywhere else on Earth.

I love the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the flag that flies over my house, and the men and women in uniform who’ve kept us free.

I love that we’re the only nation on the planet dumb enough and brave enough to say “give me liberty or give me death” and actually mean it.

I’m done being polite about it all.

I’ll keep writing, keep voting, keep raising my kids right, and keep standing for the greatest experiment in human freedom the world has ever known.

Because if loving America makes me the bad guy…then lock me up with the rest of the patriots.

I’m sick and tired of the haters.

But I’ll never be tired of this country.

MAGA forever.
