@DarkSoulz449AD Every picture of Burn and Haaland is incredible

The only thing Big Anglo Burn is going to give plastic Viking Haaland tonight is, "Seven feet of English ground, or as much more as he may be taller than other men." 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚡️

U.S. men’s team: bitchy, backbiting, pointing fingers England men’s team:

@TheeDrGroyper Morocco is the whitest team left in this thing

Wow. They would put the all white teams on one side of the bracket.

Novak Djokovic is 39 years old and just won a 5 hour and 15 minute match at Wimbledon 😮

@mattvanswol Whites are so starved for community with baseline levels of social trust that getting a ride home is a monumental event

🚨#BREAKING: A German soccer fan who flew to the USA but was fearful about coming because of news about criminals and people being mean... ...breaks down into TEARS, live on air saying he has FALLEN IN LOVE with America after a random man named "Bob" in Boston gave him a ride home after he was stuck at a game with no way back to his hotel The German soccer fan's name is Sebastian, he said after meeting Bob, he extended his entire trip. He said leaving America will hurt worse than watching Germany get knocked out of the World Cup. "I fall in love with America. I'm sorry, it's just so emotional. Americans are not rude... if we are together, we can achieve great things." THIS IS THE AMERICA I KNOW!!!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

People are finally noticing alternatives to originalism/textualism. Good. But they still can't conceive that engaging natural law and the classical tradition isn't "legislating from the bench" -- it's identifying and applying law.

To paraphrase my late professor Leo Strauss, the majority of the Court may be fiddling while Rome is burning, though they may not realize that they are fiddling, or that Rome is burning. 14/fin

One of the most incredible things I have ever worked on: Recently discovered documents, written by John Dickinson in 1775, that reveal his secret and previously unknown efforts to prevent the American Revolution. Now featured in the New York Times. nytimes.com/2026/06/30/us/…

Red-State conservatives are the only people who still sincerely believe in liberalism, just like Blue-State Hick-Libs are the only people who still sincerely believe in progressivism.

“Liberal Catholicism is an exhausted project. Essentially a critique, even a necessary critique at one point in our history, it is now parasitical on a substance that no longer exists. It has shown itself unable to pass on the faith in its integrity and inadequate, therefore, in fostering the joyful self-surrender called for in Christian marriage, in consecrated life, in ordained priesthood. It no longer gives life.” —Cardinal Francis E. George, O.M.I.

@EWErickson Too bad they aren't like you Protestants, who don't believe in anything

Catholics fundamentally, by faith, believe that when they take communion, the elements physically become the body and blood of Christ. Even most Christian branches reject that belief. Catholics fundamentally believe it. The Iranian regime fundamentally believes the 12th Mahdi has disappeared into a fold in space and will come back at the right time. Iran’s leaders believe their reason for being is to remove the barriers to the Mahdi’s return. Israel is one of those barriers. Even most branches of Islam reject that belief. The Iranian leaders fundamentally believe it. People have by-faith beliefs you may not take seriously. But those of the faith take them seriously and we should not dismiss the sincerity of their beliefs. The fundamental problem with Western secular government dealing with Iran is that the West rejects the miracles. Even many Western leaders who claim faith do not truly believe in what they profess. So they struggle to relate to those who truly believe in deeply held by-faith convictions. The Catholic belief in transubstantiation does not affect you, though it incentivizes haters of the Faith to steal and corrupt the sacraments. Th Iranian belief in setting the stage for the Mahdi’s return affects the whole world and we should act accordingly, not have them sign a paper they will, by faith, work to undermine.

After taking this photo of burned out houses in East Belfast, two local lads scrolled through my phone photo library to ensure I hadn’t captured any faces, telling me “with no animosity, like” to “fuck away off before you get kneecapped”

BREAKING: Rioters are breaking into migrant HMOs (Houses in Multiple Occupation, a form of taxpayer-funded housing for asylum seekers) in Belfast and setting them ablaze. It’s a difficult night for firefighters in Belfast with fires reported in several parts of the city.

Men, immediately after intimacy there are three hygiene routines you should always do to keep yourself safe: 1. Go and urinate immediately.

@BasedMikeLee @ryanswalters73 my eternal soul?

@ryanswalters73 Why not read it anyway? What do you have to lose?

Read the Book of Mormon. Cover to cover. Pray about it, asking sincerely to know whether it’s true (the final chapter provides specific guidance on this point). Then tell me whether Latter-day Saints believe in Jesus Christ. Will you accept that challenge?

@BasedMikeLee “My church’s logo”

If only we, as Latter-day Saints, belonged to a church that had “Jesus Christ” in its name and His image in its logo … Oh wait

@ShabanaMahmood You aren’t British

The scenes this evening in Portswood are completely unacceptable. The Nowak family made a powerful call to us all yesterday to not let Henry’s death be used to create further division, hatred or tension. There can be no justification for hijacking this tragedy to stir up violence and disorder. Those responsible can expect to face the full force of the law. I thank the police who have tonight shown great bravery and calm in the face of disgraceful violence directed at them.
