Thank you, European soccer fans, for reminding us of how great our country is.
With all the political bickering I’m afraid we too often take it for granted.
Your timing was impeccable, on this our 250th birthday, and we are forever in your debt for bringing the beer.
I encourage every American who hasn’t been to Europe to do so. I’ve been many times and it’s an amazing continent with amazing history and even more amazing people.
But make sure you post pics, as something tells me they may need to be reminded occasionally, too.
The most surreal thing of our trip so far. Currently driving towards Louisiana and the radio station we were listening to started talking about our trip and played Ella Langley especially for us😭😭😭
SpaceX just landed a Falcon 9 booster, and Elon Musk's live reaction was more human than anyone expected.
"It's standing up. It's coming in. It sounded like an explosion. Look at this. Look at this. It's just sitting there. Holy smokes, man."
Watching Europeans come to American for the first time and absolutely love it makes me love my country so much more. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
American is the greatest country in the world.

My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us!
I'm sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to "fix" the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around.
I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook's, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we've become completely blind to it.
Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose.These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don't give them a second thought.
We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!!
Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ??
Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, "An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity."
Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in.
When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I've ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided.
My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let's just say I didn't have the popular opinion, but I digress.
Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country.
People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they've never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism.
Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn't live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn't see the rise and fall of socialism and communism.
We don't know what it's like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don't have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it's spreading like a plague."

You look at the money given to Illegal immigrants, where it's like ($2.5-to $3B) they could've used that money to keep the Bears in town, not for people who's not supposed to be in our Country
Illegals first.. Chicagoans last
HOLY SHT.. Rep. Brandon Gill just absolutely COOKED Democrats..
“160 years ago Democrats were asking us: ‘if it weren’t for slavery, who would pick our cotton?’”
“And today they’re asking a similar question, which is: ‘if it weren’t for mass migration, who would pick our avocados?’
Everyone told me Americans were unfriendly but they hold doors open, stop when you’re crossing the road, say hello in the street etc
Why do people assume Americans aren’t like this
Milton Friedman on how ‘social justice’ destroys a society:
“If I have a philosophy that everything belongs to society—if something happens to me, that’s not my fault, that’s because society did it to me—then the whole concept of property loses its role.”
“Why shouldn’t I steal? Why shouldn’t I destroy property? After all, it’s nobody’s. It belongs to everybody, so it belongs to nobody.”
“Moreover, if I happened to be in a lower-income group, or a deprived social group, or a discriminated-against racial group, that’s the malevolence of other people. It’s not my fault, and I have every right to get back at them.”
Marc Andreessen: "We had meetings with the Biden admin where they told us — don't even start AI companies. There's no way we'll let you succeed."
Joe Rogan: "What do you do after a meeting like that?"
Marc Andreessen: "You go endorse Donald Trump."
