Pat McAfee is the best thing that has happened to ESPN in decades.
He can't be told to follow the woke, liberal agenda. He's far more valuable to ESPN, than ESPN is to him.
He's refreshingly original and unapologetically patriotic.
God bless, Pat McAfee 🫡
@Cernovich@legitbrittFLA It's all well and good to legitimately complain about or criticize Trump for mistakes he has made an/or promises he hasn't kept. But to act as if things wouldn't be horribly worse had Harris won, is INSANE.
The Communists in media, sports, politics and corporate America will never quit.
They'll go scorched Earth on beloved brands, leagues, and political parties before they ever concede any ground on their insane marxist agenda.
There is no middle with radicals.
Act accordingly.
I don't need AI to come up with a massive list of lies that your father has told. Here's a few off of the top of my head. I'm doing yard work now. Maybe I'll actually put some effort into this list later.
“You won’t get Covid if you get the vaccine.”
2024. “Inflation was at 9% when I took office.” (It was actually at 1.4%
“I’ve lowered the national debt.”
“I won’t pardon my son.”
“My son died in Iraq.”
“I’ve never received any foreign money. Nobody in my family has made money from China.”
“I opposed minimum sentencing and building more prisons.” Biden told Charlemagne this in 2020. Both massive lies.
“Trump called nazis very fine people and never condemned white supremacy.” These lies were the basis of Biden’s entire campaign.
“I decided to run because of Charlottesville.” Charlottesville happened in 2017. Biden denied he was running all the way up until 2019.
The “Uncle received Purple Heart” story.
“If I’m elected President, I’m going to shut down the virus.” More people died in 2021 than in 2020.
Biden said that the Afghanistan withdrawal could not have gone any better. This was after he said that the Taliban would not take over the control.
“I never told people to come.” (Regarding migrants surging the border in 2021. Of course he did tell them to come many times in 2019 and 2020.”
2018 “My net worth is 50 to 150 thousand dollars.” Laughable. He made $11 million just the year before.
“I grew up in the Black church.”
“I marched for civil rights.”
“I never discussed business with my son.”
“I used to drive a big rig.”
“I was a full time professor at University of PA.”
“I’m a hard coal miner.” Also “My grandfather was a coal miner.” Biden admitted both were lies.
1988 Joe Biden lies about his grades and quits after getting caught plagiarizing.
Biden said he received a full academic scholarship to law school.
Biden has repeatedly claimed his house burned down.
“I never mishandled classified documents.”
“Graduated top of my class and with 3 degrees.”
Lies about Xi Jinping and the number of times they met.
Drunk driver killed his wife and daughter.
Lies about visiting Tree of Life synagouge.
“I was arrested trying to visit Nelson Mandela.”
“I pinned the silver star” story that never happened. Biden always finishes that story with “My word as a Biden.”
Amtrak conductor story that never happened. Guy retired before Biden was even VP.
Biden claims George Bush tricked him into supporting the Iraq War and that he stopped supporting it immediately after the war began.” Both huge lies. Biden was one of the biggest reasons the Iraq War started and he kept supporting it for years after it started.
“I have 5 grandchildren.” “I have 6 grandchildren.” He actually has 7.
“I’m going to send out $2,000 checks to everyone if I win.”
“I won’t issue vaccine or mask mandates.”
Biden denied opposing the bin Laden raid. Lie.
2012 VP debate. Biden claimed they never requested more security in Benghazi. Flat out lie.
“I never opposed busing.” Lie.
“I knew nothing about the moves to investigate Michael Flynn.” Biden was the one who suggested the Logan Act.
“Hunter’s laptop is a Russian plant.”
A woman in a hot-air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below.
She shouted to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.
"She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican."
"I am," replied the man. "How did you know?"
"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct. But I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me."
The man smiled and responded, "You must be a Democrat."
"I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?"
"Well," said the man, "you don't know where you are or where you are going.. You've risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but somehow, now it's my fault."
@LaserEyedMaxi@Zevia Dr. Zevia doesn't even taste like Dr. Pepper any more. They should change the name to Mr. Zevia. Cola tastes weird now. Strawberry is gone. The cans all look the same. The new CEO doesn't understand product loyalty. If they screw up Mountain Zevia I'm gone.

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.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz: "Trump often applies pressure through a very forceful approach.
"The last American presidents politely asked us, "Please, finally do a little more for your own defense," but across Europe those requests largely fell on deaf ears.
"Now there is an American president who says, rather bluntly, "Enough is enough."
"And I cannot blame him. Just look at the numbers: the United States spends around 80 percent of NATO's defense resources, while Europe accounts for only about 20 percent.
"That is unacceptable. It has always been unacceptable."
Yes. It always has been.
I never cease to marvel at how Europe's (and Canada's) leaders act as though they believe that they are somehow the side "indulging" the President of the United States.
The sheer arrogance.
I'm a lifelong Atlanticist, but if Europe doesn't step up and soon, even I'm for pulling out of NATO.
Explain to me the downside to the U.S. Now, explain to me the downside to a bunch of freeloading European "powers" that use our defense budget to subsidize their welfare programs. And this is particularly galling coming from a country (the UK) that has nearly twice as many admirals as warships. It's a joke.
They keep threatening to "go it alone" on defense. What, with a Boy Scout troop? Puh-lease. And if they did, in what possible respect would that hurt us?
It is no different from a small child threatening to hold his breath until he turns blue.
Our European friends would do well to take stock of who they have actually become and how far they've actually fallen. Their richest country is poorer per capita than our poorest state. And after that impossible feat, perhaps they will actually begin to understand why Presidents since Bush have been telling them these exact same things. They're just at the end of the 25-year-long line now, and Trump is saying the quiet parts out loud.
It's the Pacific Century, folks. NATO can partners, or not. But they no longer get to be dependents. And we no longer care about their pathetic, unearned condescension.
It's good to see that Chancellor Merz -- leader of a country that sometimes shows up to NATO exercises with broomsticks because it doesn't have enough rifles, despite having the world's third largest economy -- has finally realized that.
May others follow. Quickly.
I hope everyone will read Dave Ramsey’s comments about going cashless. It’s a two minute read. No one has explained it better. He brings up several situations I'd never considered.
I took this picture of my receipt in my beautiful town Kerrville Texas. I support this and I can see how this could affect our kids by having gaps in work ethic, financial literacy, and community connection.
Dave Ramsey repost:
HERE'S WHAT NO CASH ACTUALLY MEANS:
A cashless society means no cash. Zero. It doesn’t mean mostly cashless and you can still use a ‘wee bit of cash here & there’. Cashless means fully digital, fully traceable, fully controlled. I think those who support a cashless society aren’t fully aware of what they are asking for. A cashless society means:
* If you are struggling with your mortgage on a particular month, you can’t do an odd job to get you through.
* Your child can’t go & help the local farmer to earn a bit of summer cash.
* No more cash slipped into the hands of a child as a good luck charm or from their grandparent when going on holidays.
* No more money in birthday cards.
* No more piggy banks for your child to collect pocket money & to learn about the value of earning.
* No more cash for a rainy day fund or for that something special you have been putting $20 a week away for.
* No more little jobs on the side because your wages barely cover the bills or put food on the table.
* No more charity collections.
* No more selling bits & pieces from your home that you no longer want/need for a bit of cash in return.
* No more cash gifts from relatives or loved ones.
What a cashless society does guarantee:
* Banks have full control of every single penny you own.
* Every transaction you make is recorded.
* All your movements & actions are traceable.
* Access to your money can be blocked at the click of a button when/if banks need ‘clarification’ from you which will take about 3 weeks, a thousand questions answered & five thousand passwords.
* You will have no choice but to declare & be taxed on every dollar in your possession.
* The government WILL decide what you can & cannot purchase.
* If your transactions are deemed in any way questionable, by those who create the questions, your money will be frozen, ‘for your own good’.
Forget about cash being dirty. Stop being so easily led. Cash has been around for a very, very, very long time & it gives you control over how you trade with the world. It gives you independence.
If you are a customer, pay with cash. If you are a shop owner, remove those ridiculous signs that ask people to pay by card. Cash is a legal tender, it is our right to pay with cash. Banks are making it increasingly difficult to lodge cash.
Please open your eyes. Please stop believing everything you are being told. Almost every single topic in today’s world is tainted with corruption & hidden agendas.
Pay with cash & please say no to a cashless society while you still have the choice.
