This article almost perfectly exemplifies my thoughts of the last 3 years. Please consider reading this. It's worth your time. https://t.co/7dFTMNyp2K

Michigan Football is the single most corrupt college football program in the history of the sport!!
It’s leader Jim Harbaugh is the biggest coward in college coaching history

🚨 WOW: Billionaire Chamath Palihapitiya says the media lied to millions about President Trump, admits he was “totally wrong,” and says the media fabricated narratives to assassinate Trump’s character.

Here is what the left expected to happen during the World Cup: Europeans were supposed to smirk at us. They were supposed to mock our religion and our guns. They were supposed to turn away in righteous disgust at our abundance and free refills and buffet lines and big trucks and big houses. They were supposed to shake their heads at our supposed lack of culture. They were supposed to see a racist behind every tree and under every rock. They were supposed to catch a glimpse of discord and poverty and hate and perpetual ignorance. And they were supposed to leave here hating this country even more so than when they arrived.
But they didn’t.
They fell in love with us. And by “us,” I mean the real, everyday America. They didn’t go to the Met Gala; they went to Walmart. They didn’t dine at the French Laundry; they ate at Waffle House. They didn’t scoff at bigger portions; they consumed them with glee. They weren’t impressed by Priuses; they were impressed by Ford F-150s. They didn’t sniffily order some 25-syllabled cup of pretention from the local fair trade cafe; they drank American beer, listened to American country music, and ate American bar food. They don’t marvel at inner-city legal drug zones; they marvel at the wide open expanses of American beauty.
They love ranch dressing. They love the military flyovers. They love the gas stations. They love the 24/7 business hours. They love the huge American flags.
In short, everything our visitors love about America is everything the left hates about America. The leftists watch this in paralyzing horror. This wasn’t supposed to happen. Foreigners were supposed to return to their homelands and report that America is exactly what Barack Obama, Michael Moore, and Sasha Baron Cohen told them it was.
But that’s not going to happen now. Because our foreign guests realize that everything their "elites" told them about us has been a disgusting lie. Just like everything our "elites" tell us about ourselves is a disgusting lie.
But the most important lesson I hope the Europeans take home with them is this. Patriotism is a moral virtue. It’s good to be proud of your country. And despite what the government, the public schools, the universities, Hollywood, social media, the elite globalists, and both the domestic and foreign media tell us, Americans are proud of their country. And if visiting Europeans can see through the lie they’ve been sold about America, I hope they can see the lie they’ve been told about themselves.

Just so we are all on the same page:

Illegals are voting.
Illegals are getting free food.
Illegals are getting free childcare.
Illegals are getting free education.
Illegals are getting free tax credits.
Illegals are getting free healthcare.
Illegals are getting free housing assistance.
Illegals are getting free legal representation.
Illegals are getting free mental health services.
Illegals are getting free college tuition in over a dozen states.

It is the most insane scam ever perpetrated on the American people.

I now understand the American dream.

I came to the World Cup because I was offered a last minute ticket to watch England play Croatia in Dallas and I started documenting my journey.

The content went viral on social media. So much so, the President of the United States saw it himself.

I was invited to attend the grand opening of the great American state fair for freedom 250 and halfway through Donald Trumps speech, I was told to come and wait back stage for a photograph.

This sort of thing could only happen in America.
As an Englishman I never really understood what America has to make it “the land of opportunity”

But results speak for themselves.

They're not freezing your rent, they're freezing your housing providers' income, while their expenses keep increasing.

The point isn't to make your housing affordable, it's to make providing housing financially inviable, so government(s) can seize the unmanageable properties.

Our lack of financial literacy is going to destroy us.

Poll on voters who say they’re extremely or very proud to be an American:

I knew we were the greatest country in the world, but it’s something we all definitely take for granted sometimes.

Seeing all these foreigners visiting for the World Cup and talking about how great America is has been a good reminder of how blessed we are to live here.

It must suck to have to pretend to be mad at this

[Allie Beth Stuckey @conservmillen]

I really wanted to believe the group defending Karmelo was a limited fringe of radicals. But the show of mainstream support and utter delusion from many black politicians, celebrities & activists quickly dashed that hope. It’s one thing when we’re talking about a black person who was killed - you can at least understand sympathy for George Floyd or Michael Brown, even if the facts are disputed. But we are talking about an undisputed murderer. To defend him, one has to be so far outside of reality and the realm of moral truth that they can no longer tell up from down. It’s so extremely dangerous for people who think this way to have any say whatsoever in matters of law and justice.

A Somali Soccer Referee was denied entry to the US to officiate in the World Cup. The left screams "racism" and blames America.

Let's examine the facts over the fiction and emotion:

As reported, the referee attempted to enter on a Diplomatic passport. He's not a diplomat. 1/

[Bill Melugin @BillMelugin_]

BREAKING: The Somali FIFA World Cup referee who was denied entry into the U.S. by CBP was flagged with “derogatory” information, including “association with suspected members of terror organizations”, making him inadmissible for entry into the U.S., a Trump admin official tells @FoxNews.

Statement to FOX:

"This individual was seeking admission to the United States. Upon further inspection by CBP, derogatory information, including association with suspected members of terror organizations, was discovered making the traveler ineligible for admission to the United States under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). The traveler was refused admission and given immigration forms that provide the section of law used to complete an expedited removal under 8235 of the INA. President Trump's administration will not allow any security threat to enter our country - full stop.”

If you have to create a shared podium for the boy competing in the girls’ event, you’ve already admitted you know he isn’t a girl and that his participation is unfair.

At that point, you're just seeking a public humiliation ritual for the girls.

People who overcome their circumstances and win with money are not different because they won. They're different because they made a decision to change their life and they took the actions required to make that change a reality.
