Now that the US is knocked out, I am formally extending an invitation to the American people to support Norway.

Why?

1: The Vikings discovered America before Columbus.

2: There are more ethnic Norwegians in the US than in Norway.

3: Next weekend we can pillage the English peasants together.

The National Anthem hits different on America’s 250th birthday 🇺🇸

I can't stop listening to this song. Best thing that came out of the World cup being in the United States this year. 🇺🇸

Watching this compilation of fans from all over the world at the 2026 World Cup in America is so heartwarming.

@FreddyLA7 Southern hospitality. It’s the best!

@kathleenmadigan I got a DoubleTree cookie in Europe last summer that was horrible! They have no idea.

As I frequently tell my own students @uaustinorg, the job market is about to be saturated with people like this: people who have been cheated out of their own minds for the stupidest possible reasons. People whose teachers didn’t want to be a burden or a bad guy or worst of all, an elitist, so they just gave up in advance on literature the old fashioned way.

Sure, they made up a cock-and-bull story about how obsolete the classics were, how outmoded the old ways of teaching were, how impractical it was to sit with a pen and paper and run through verb conjugations or just puzzle over words. But the truth is they were scared of being that most valuable of beings, the kindly but stern authority figure. And then when the machines came for the books, they had not a leg to stand on.

The result is that maybe no other skill will be more valuable in years to come, or more rare, than the ability to sit alone in a room and follow a train of thought from beginning to end. All those drills and disciplines they told you were “useless”? Reading, rhetoric, contemplation? Poetry, philosophy, fine art? Turns out they’re the only training that can mold you into the scarcest resource on earth, which is a functional adult human being.

And to beat it all, that’s now just about the one kind of training that can make you proof against the disruptions of the AI economy. Forget who said it but it’s true: “learn to code” was crap advice. Learn to ode.

@ick_real My husbands grandmother was Prella.

@newstart_2024 If she is a teacher she can have her loan forgiven. I did a few years ago.

@greta Mine did last year at 25. He saved for a down payment and bought a house. He drives an old car, doesn’t eat out, and does waste money.

Nigeria: Her Christian husband and two children, aged 3 years and 10 months, were slaughtered by Islamists right in front of her.

She and her only surviving child, aged 7, were left for dead, and her hand was chopped off.

The Persecuted Church in Nigeria needs all of us.

@CdogDawg @NewsHour Europe. Heard a segment about it last week somewhere. A doctor was talking about it.

@CBSNews I love and raised kids in a city without fluoride in the water. None of them has had cavities. 🦷

@DefiyantlyFree You did not have a house that big on a normal middle class job. Both of my grandparents had pretty small houses by today’s standards.

[Anna Lulis @annamlulis]

Vance is incredibly relatable to Americans with families.

He just got off a long flight with his kids, clearly exhausted and in pajamas.

Elon Musk and Vance are among the most powerful people on earth, yet are single-handedly normalizing children in public.

Incredible.

@farhip So the same ages as the founding fathers. That’s great!

WATCH: Speaker Mike Johnson just shared a personal & heartfelt story at the March for Life

"I was the product of an unplanned teen pregnancy, and I am so eternally grateful that my mom and dad ignored all the people who told them to just take care of that problem."

"They chose to embrace life and to have me."

Wow, I had no idea about this. Imagine the satisfaction his mother felt watching him thrive in life, knowing she made the right decision.

@imbrettcooper We saw him when we were there in Quebec. He was going into a hotel. You never know. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@imbrettcooper Listen to you daily and love your content. I’ll be listening when you get going again.

@NoVAGurl703 Just sit a hand mixer into the chicken and turn it in. Shredded chicken quickly. Works every time.
