The World Cup ends today. One game left. By tomorrow most of you visitors will be packing up, heading to the airport, going home.
So before you go, let me say the thing I actually want to say.
A few weeks ago I wrote a silly post about all the things you were discovering here. Free refills. Free water. Ice like civilized people. Chips and salsa before you even order. Air conditioning that is a fact and not a moral debate. Drive-throughs. Ranch by the gallon. The Germans standing in the HEB meat aisle in reverent silence, finally understanding why we do not have trains. Buc-ee’s, for which there are still no words.
It blew up, because it was true, and because you were so delightfully stunned by all of it.
Even the Wall Street Journal caught on. Their headline this week: how the US lost the World Cup and won over the world. We did not lift the trophy. But apparently we lifted something else.
We even learned a few things about ourselves along the way. Like the fact that Elon Musk, the single richest man on the planet, shops at HEB. Just rolls in and queues up for fresh tortillas with everybody else. The man could buy the tortilla company, the state it is in, and the moon it sits under, and instead he is standing in line at the hot-tortilla counter like the rest of us, because that is where the good ones are. Only in America is the wealthiest human alive elbow to elbow with a mom of four at the salsa bar. That is the whole country in one aisle.
And here is the part I want every one of you to hear on your way out the door.
None of it was a show.
We did not roll all this out because you were coming. The ice was always there. The refills were always free. The grocery stores were always the size of aircraft hangars at ten on a Tuesday. The stranger who adopted your whole section, the guy who gave you a ride, the waitress who remembered your order, the family that invited you to the cookout, that is not World Cup America. That is just America. That is Tuesday.
We are exactly like this when nobody is visiting. Loud, generous, ridiculous, overfed, and genuinely thrilled you came. We will still be exactly like this tomorrow when the stands are empty and the flags come down.
So thank you. To everyone who came, who sang in our streets, who cleaned our stadiums, who turned our cities orange and filled our bars and taught us your chants. You were wonderful guests, and you made a country that just turned 250 feel young and seen and loved.
And to everyone who could not make it this time, the door does not close today. We meant all of it. Come whenever. The porch light stays on, the fridge stays full, and there is always room for one more at the table.
You found out who we are these last few weeks.
Good news. We are like this all the time.
Safe travels home.
Y’all come back now, you hear. 🦋
"It now appears there actually was meaningful voter fraud in Fulton County, Georgia last November."
"That is not a conspiracy theory. It's true."

In the 1970s everybody agreed do your own thing just don’t stick it in your neighbors face, it was great
until anti-American Alt Left communist born of Russian parents (rules for radicals) Saul Alinsky pushed his philosophy of ultimate American destruction on Brain dead students.
There’s a reason Trump was over an hour late to give his speech. There’s a reason Trump was JUST ENDING his speech over 2 miles away WHILE the Capitol was being “breached”. There’s a reason why the media ONLY focuses on THAT part of the building.
Trump supporters were there to see TRUMP in hopes he’d break some incredible news. I was one of them.
What happened at the West Plaza was NOT the Trump supporters who came to DC for President Trump. Sure, some left early for the Capitol. But they were instigated by abusive cops who incited violence on a peaceful crowd through tear gas, pepper balls, tasers, and concussion grenades.
The video drops from Tucker are WAY more than what meets the eye.
RELEASE ALL THE FOOTAGE. TO THE PUBLIC!!!
