[Emanuel Quiñones @EQuinones6310]

The World Cup has turned America into a discovery channel for the rest of the world.

And they are not handling it well.
In the best possible way.

Here is what they are discovering:

Free public restrooms. Europeans pay every time.
Free water at every restaurant. Just appears.
Free refills. Coffee. Sodas. Iced tea. Unlimited.
Free chips and salsa before you even order.
Free warm bread with dinner.
Ice in drinks like civilized people.
Air conditioning everywhere. Not a moral debate. A fact.
Parking lots attached to the actual place you are going.
Drive throughs where the food comes to the car while you sit in it.
Ranch dressing by the gallon.
Tex-Mex that cannot be explained only experienced.
Dental care that actually works.
Buccee’s. There are no words for Buccee’s.

Then they found the grocery stores.

Five of them within one mile.
Each one the size of an aircraft hangar.
Burgers. Steaks. Brisket. Ribs. Pulled pork. Lamb. Veal. Every cut of every animal ever domesticated by human civilization available in one refrigerated aisle at ten in the morning on a Tuesday.

The Germans stood in the meat section for forty five minutes.
In silence.
Processing.

They finally understand why we do not have trains.

We have roads wide enough for the cars we actually drive.
Parking lots the size of small European countries.
Airports in every city worth visiting.

Why would we need trains.

The Germans are taking ranch home by the bottle.
The Dutch found queso and briefly lost the ability to speak.
The Japanese are photographing HEB like it is the Louvre.
The Czechs are weeping in West, Texas.

Welcome to America!
The greatest country on earth.

Today Obama praised people for attempting to stop ICE from doing its job.

When he was running for President in 2008 Obama slammed Bush for not doing more to stop illegal immigration.

The Divider In Chief is such a fraud.

“The media isn’t silent on child sex trafficking because of the children, it’s because of who the customers are.”

That’s the absolute truth.

[I Meme Therefore I Am 🇺🇸 @ImMeme0]

Zevenor Gordon, a sexual predator, has been jailed for 16 months for sexually assaulting 6 schoolgirls and women in London.

Paul Powlesland, an environmental lawyer, is facing 2 years in prison for cleaning and removing garbage from the London river without a license.

British justice system is broken.

[SANTA CATARINA in FURY 😡 @BCemFuria]

A mídia brasileira nos contou que os EUA 🇺🇸 era um país em decadência, que maltratava e deportava seus turistas e que a copa do mundo seria um FRACASSO.

Resultado: Melhor copa do mundo da história.

"There's no way 250,000 girls were raped in the UK. That number must be exaggerated."

Okay, let's pretend it's exaggerated, just for the sake of argument.

How many children need to be raped for you to be upset about it?

[Gunther Eagleman™ @GuntherEagleman]

CNN could be reporting on the rape gangs in the UK but they chose to report on algae growth in the Lincoln Memorial.

[Ricky Vaughn @dvigilrpg]

Nobody is being gang raped.

Ok, so little girls are being gang raped but it's not that many.

Well, little girls are getting gang raped, and it's a lot, but its not 250,000, its only 50,000.

That's where we are now with the liberals.

A South Carolina native. A warrior. A legend.

Retired United States Marine Corps Major James Capers, Jr. received the Medal of Honor last night, the highest military decoration.

In 1967, severely wounded and under heavy fire in Vietnam, Major Capers led his entire team to safety and refused to board the helicopter until every single one of his men was on it first. He was the first African American to lead a Marine Reconnaissance company and receive a battlefield commission.

This is what courage looks like.

We fought alongside the SC delegation to help make this happen for Major Capers because he earned it, plain and simple.

Congratulations, Major Capers.

South Carolina STRONG.

250,000 British girls raped by Pakistani grooming gangs.

Where are the feminists now?

Where is Emma Watson?
Where is Natalie Portman?
Where is Angelina Jolie?
Where is Greta Thunberg?
Why are they silent?!
