Penn State's latest 2028 commit has already been working on other recruits.

I caught up with @Armstrong_Qb to discuss a variety of topics surrounding his recruitment and today's decision.

Penn State fans are gonna love what he's all about.

DHS cut this quote off one sentence early. Here’s how Roosevelt actually finished the thought, same speech, 1915:

“But if he is heartily and singly loyal to this Republic, then no matter where he was born, he is just as good an American as any one else.”

He also said he wasn’t talking about naturalized citizens (“some of the very best Americans I have ever known”) and that “any discrimination against aliens is a wrong.”

Teddy Roosevelt’s descendants asked Congress to protect his legacy. Trump’s admin answered by perverting TR’s words to push their anti-immigrant agenda.

so if watching two men kiss will turn your child gay, just show them a man and a woman kissing and change them back.

11 stars for the Confederate states instead of 13 stars for the original colonies is a detail most Americans won’t notice because of our public school system.

MAGA: Illegals are coming to take American jobs
Also MAGA: Illegals are coming to lounge around and live off welfare
MAGA: Black people don't value education enough
Also MAGA: Black people are taking white kids' slots at the best colleges

Racists need to pick a lane...

1. You didn’t respond to my tweet? Do you want to start by deporting your immigrant in laws? Your immigrant father-in-law, after all, was a convicted criminal.
2. Washington actually had people called Muhammad fighting in his Continental Army. Have you ever read US history?

Quote: "This is how USAID spent your tax dollars"

I think people have lost the will to try fact-check this guy due to the volume of lies he spreads.

Also it's actually pretty difficult with this image and quite time consuming.

It just happens I had nothing better to do. /1

Here’s what makes this so bleak:

In 1976, people flocked to DC for the Bicentennial. A whole week of celebration. It was proud, it was joyous, and it was packed.

Our generation never got that. And most of us will be pushing 90 by the next one.

This was our turn. There was a bipartisan commission, America250, built to give it to us — a celebration that belonged to everyone.

Instead, the administration stood up its own group, Freedom 250, to push the real one aside. They fired the original organizer. They routed tens of millions in taxpayer dollars to the president’s version while the bipartisan one went unfunded. States pulled out because it had become too partisan. The musicians quit, so he turned the concert into a campaign rally about deportations and grievance.

They didn’t celebrate the country. They celebrated themselves.

And you can see the result on the grass. A 250th birthday that should have belonged to all of us, turned into one man’s vanity project.

Empty. And sad.

🤨

Jesus cooked breakfast for his disciples on a beachside campire. Jacob and Esau each prepared a meal for their father. The first deacons in Acts 6 were tasked with waiting on tables and feeding the hungry.

Also I'm just a better cook than my wife is. 😆

Shut up, Joel.

They’re going to call you a socialist regardless.

So be a socialist.

The Republicans hate slavery so much that they just named nine military bases after Confederate generals.
