WOW — Senate Armed Services Committee Chair Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) takes a major whack at Trump’s Iran MOU
Wicker says the $300B fund “would make Iran’s payoff under President Obama’s 2015 deal look like a pittance by comparison”
The next time you hear JD Vance casually accuse his critics of unpatriotically spreading misinformation, remember that he described the *accurate* descriptions of the MOU as Iranian propaganda. He says what he needs to say in the moment without regard for the truth — or decency.
I've traveled the world, and I'll say it plainly that there's no place like the United States. We're not perfect, far from it, but we are blessed to call this country home.
Right now, that's playing out in real time. The 2026 World Cup has brought over a million international visitors to our shores, and the internet is full of foreign fans falling in love with the everyday things we take for granted.
A German fan has gone viral documenting his American road trip, from Waffle House to Buc-ee's to college football and Southern hospitality. Fans from Sweden, the UK, and beyond can't get enough of things like 7-Eleven Big Gulps and ranch dressing ...stuff most of us never think twice about.
One tourist put it perfectly, people are amused watching her experience America and seeing how big she thinks little things are, because if you live here, you get used to it but for someone visiting, it's genuinely special.
And that's the point, isn't it? Sometimes it takes an outsider's eyes to remind us what we have such as wide-open highways, small-town hospitality, the sheer scale and variety of this country, the freedom to come from anywhere and build a life. It's become trendy to dismiss America as lacking culture, but there's beauty in every direction here.
We've got our problems. Every country does. But watching the world show up on our doorstep and fall in love with the ordinary parts of American life is a good reminder that we're blessed to live here, faults and all. 🦅
Football is genuinely the closest thing we have to a universal language. Expanding the World Cup to 48 teams was a top tier decision man. More countries, more cultures, more stories.
I know it feels like we’re having a big sleepover with the entire world and will come to an end one day soon, but watching Americans dancing with the Algerians and the Scottish at our bbqs and so forth and so on….. this is the world and the America I wanna live in all the time.
