This week will be one of the coolest things I've ever been a part of. NASCAR on Prime will broadcast the @NASCARSanDiego race from an aircraft carrier. Join us for a special day of racing on Sunday as @SportsonPrime will be live from the flight deck of the USS Carl Vinson.

For all you "But it's for the CHILDREN" folks.
No, no it's not. It's for the oversight, the data tracking, the top-down control, the stifling of speech, and the money. That's what it's for.
I've written to Governor Spanberger demanding answers on her removal of John Rocovich from the Virginia Tech Board of Visitors, and demanding she follow the law.
Virginia Code is clear: a board member can only be removed for malfeasance, misfeasance, incompetence, or gross neglect of duty. Specific written reasons are required.
None were provided here.
This isn't just about one appointment. If a governor can remove a board member at any public university without meeting the legal standard, then every board member in Virginia serves at the pleasure of whoever holds the executive office. That is not what the law intends, and it cannot be allowed to stand as settled practice.
Unless Governor Spanberger can justify this removal, she should immediately return Mr. Rocovich to the Board.

The biggest myth still taught in education programs and professional development is learning styles. Research has debunked the idea that students learn best through a specific style, yet schools keep pushing it.
Australia banned X for children but not BlueSky.
Britain is banning X for children but not BlueSky.
This proves one thing.
It's not about protecting children.
It's about censorship and controlling the narrative.
In most industries, we expect competition to keep things fresh and accountable. With a 13% approval rating and over a 90% re-election rate, Congress has had neither for a long time. Regularly opening seats restores voter choice and allows more people to run with a real change at being elected, adding to voters choice. Term limits don't replace your vote, they make sure it counts again. What do you think a little more competition would do for Congress?
Please, please, please for the whoever makes decisions… more 1 PM ET start times. Inspection is complete, and we have an evening to eat dinner still… I could get used to this. #NASCAR
If college students can't read/do math/etc., then professors need to fail them. Stop coddling this.
Stop devaluing standards and skills. Make the degrees mean something.
The first auto brand to make a pickup with ZERO TECH will sell out so fast it'll make their head spin. No brain, no GPS...just engine, transmission, rear end, and get the hell outta my way:)
Everyone should be against FISA.
With or without Bill Pulte or the SAVE America Act.
FISA 702 is unconstitutional.
It lets the government search Americans’ communications without a warrant.
Add a warrant requirement as the Fourth Amendment demands—or leave it expired forever.
@bonchieredstate History is riddled with morally flawed men who did great things. The guys who are presented as brilliant and morally superior? (I'm thinking Barack Obama, Bill Gates) usually turn out to be frauds. I'd rather take my visionary genius straight, with all the crazy up front.
On June 13, 1777, a 19-year-old French teenager landed on a beach in South Carolina, uninvited, to fight in someone else's war. He would become one of the most important men in American history.
The Marquis de Lafayette was one of the richest young aristocrats in France. He had a beautiful wife, a fortune, and zero reason to risk any of it. But he believed in the American cause so fiercely that when the French king forbade him from going, Lafayette bought his own ship and sailed anyway. He literally went AWOL from a life of luxury to bleed for a country that didn't exist yet.
Congress was annoyed at first. Another foreign officer looking for a paycheck? Then Lafayette offered to serve for free and pay his own way. That got their attention.
He met Washington and the two formed one of the great father-son bonds in American history. Washington had no biological children. Lafayette named his only son George Washington Lafayette.
He took a bullet in the leg at Brandywine and kept rallying the retreat. He was instrumental at Yorktown, the battle that won the war. He went home a hero on two continents.
A foreign teenager believed in America before America did. 249 years ago today.
