On day 1 of my high school history class, our professor got up and said You are 15 or 16 years old. 200 years ago people your age were married, planted crops, had children, and built a cabin by winter. You can do your homework. The bar set for you historically is embarrassingly low. You are not dealing with regional famine or plague. You do not have to save your family from marauders or go into battle to destroy your enemies. You have to sit down and learn from someone who cares about you in a safe, air-conditioned room. You have no excuses.

"Hockey's our game. It's the United States of America's game. It's the greatest country in the world." I caught up with Matthew and Brady Tkachuk right after they won gold with #TeamUSA. On the moment they've dreamed about forever, and their appreciation for St. Louis:

So awesome.

NOW — Jack Hughes, who scored the winning goal in today’s Team USA win: “This is all about our country right now. I love the USA ... We're so proud to be Americans.” 🇺🇸

The family—rooted in marriage—is civilization’s foundation. Rebuilding it is essential to America’s future. Our new report contains some of the policies that would help make that happen: heritage.org/family/saving-…

The portal is absolutely killing high school recruiting. During the season, we had a handful of coaches come by or come to games. That's not atypical from the past. This week, we've had 3 Ivy League schools and 1 in state school come by to visit. This used to be a very busy time.
