@RobSchneider I can’t get past the inconsistent capitalization.

“Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.” - John F. Kennedy We must once again recommit ourselves to one Nation under God, indivisible. Therefore, we must restore the military draft for our Nation’s young people. Each and every American, at eighteen years of age, must serve two years of military service. They could also choose to serve part of that time overseas or in country in a volunteer capacity. Being a citizen of the United States gives us unparalleled Freedoms and opportunities that are the envy of the world. However, these Freedoms that we cherish do not come without a cost. By protecting and preserving these Freedoms, young people, regardless of race, creed or religion will be united in service to their country and just as importantly, to each other. Many Nations around the world require their young citizens to serve their country. Until recently, our Nation did as well. This would serve many purposes in our society; We would have all of our young men and women put into a rigorous physical training course that they could use for the rest of their lives, we would always have a standing army ready at all times including for domestic problems like natural disasters. Unlike in today’s Universities, our young people will learn how truly great their country is and how unique and incredible are the Freedoms that this Nation bestows upon them. Service is a solemn reminder of the men and women before them who “paid the last full measure of devotion” so that we may enjoy these Freedoms. Also, very importantly, we would have in service every segment of our society represented so that our elected officials would be more hesitant and not cavalier about sending their own sons and daughters off to a faraway war unless it was truly in our Nation’s interests. This discussion and implementation must begin. To the young people of America, this is your country and your future. We will leave this great and Free Nation in your good hands for your children and for your children’s children. God Bless the United States of America! Love, Rob Schneider

@austinahlman @THEBOYLOVEHIVE They’re living in a dreamland.

Love this version of woke liberalism where you can’t admit that Clinton and Harris were fatally flawed candidates for reasons that had nothing to do with their gender, so now we can never have a woman president.

Israel has now seized a larger percentage of Lebanon's total landmass than Russia has taken from Ukraine since its 2022 invasion. The latter was immediately met with international uproar and unprecedented multi-sectoral sanctions while the former is barely even mentioned.

No Democrat should support this policy: nytimes.com/2026/03/26/wor…

@RyanMcbeth Doesn’t sound like a very nice job.

You want me to fuck you up Dave? Just say the word. I ruin lives for a living.

The US has canceled hundreds of millions in science grants and driven thousands of Ph.D.s out of the federal workforce. China, meanwhile, has poured evermore resources into its research efforts. If they pass us as a scientific superpower, we shouldn't act surprised. theatlantic.com/science/2026/0…

@keepgoingnegro @Varca_Owner Soccer is by far the biggest youth sport in America. Has been for years. The development system in America, however, is dreadfully insufficient.

@Varca_Owner Because all our athletes go to more popular sports legit no teenage boy in America, who is the fastest strongest highest IQ is thinking about playing soccer or as the world cause a football

America’s population is 349 million people and they can't even produce 11 good footballers to compete in football. Absolutely pathetic

@elikowaz The U.S. began this adventure by incinerating 160 schoolchildren. Yesterday we saw the foot of a dead child hanging out of a destroyed apartment building in Iran. Countless innocent children and medical workers dead in Lebanon. Iran’s actions are abhorrent, but be serious…

Almost all of Iran’s ballistic missile fire is directed at population centers—often using cluster munitions that are inherently indiscriminate. US and Israeli strikes are aimed at military and strategic targets. You wouldn’t know that from much of the international media.

@agraybee And yet… people can’t stop talking about him. Why do you think that is?

He averages 30,000 viewers in his stream, he's basically a public access host, we actually don't have to treat him as the party kingmaker.

When they taped the bird’s head back on and gave it to the blind kid

This is absolutely infuriating and completely idiotic. An estimated 95,000 scientists and researchers have left federal agencies since Trump returned to the White House. These are the people tracking hurricanes, studying pediatric cancer, and modeling the climate tipping points that determine whether we can still prevent catastrophe. We lost them because this administration defunded their work, shuttered their offices, and made clear that finding out the truth is no longer a government priority. NASA’s own administrator just said studying climate change isn’t part of NASA’s mission. The agency that first warned Congress about global warming in 1988 now treats that work as a distraction. Meanwhile, China and Europe are recruiting our scientists, funding their labs, and making long-term bets on the industries of the future while we gut the research infrastructure that took generations to build. We are surrendering global scientific leadership voluntarily, deliberately, and one resignation letter at a time. nytimes.com/2026/03/25/cli…

@krystalball this is a very relevant point. the dem establishment has spent so many years driving away working people, anti-war voters, human rights advocates, and social democrats... and then is shocked/outraged when those voters are welcomed in by "extreme" voices. this. is. their. fault.

Correct. And the current astroturfed Hasan freakout is precisely because Dem elites know that they can no longer control the base.

@DLoesch @ChadwikoTWW it's actually just over your head, karen

@ChadwikoTWW This is one of the dumbest replies I’ve ever read. You’re Australian. Stay out of my nation’s policies, dummy.

Do I have to be a US citizen to have opinions?

@Timothy11734032 @knotacasualfan @USMNT Disagree. Youth soccer is by far the biggest sport in the country. But the system is run by private equity firms buying up clubs and parents who care more about winning than player development.

@knotacasualfan @USMNT Until our best athletes play soccer, we will never be world class. Sorry. Our best athletes don't play soccer.

68' - Belgium add another. 🇺🇸 1 - 4 🇧🇪

@knotacasualfan @USMNT Always a generation away from being a generation away.

@USMNT Us is still at least a generation away from being competitive. We'll never be a factor until they eliminate the pay for place system that ruins development across the entire united states

@USMNT Let’s put more mls players on against Kevin De Bruyne lol

Targeting journalists is despicable. Immoral *and* stupid. RIP Fatima Ftouni, killed in her car in southern Lebanon this morning.

No foreign enemy has done more material harm to the US in this century than our own hawkish policymakers and think tankers.

@CynicalPublius So unserious and dumb.

Barack Obama deliberately sought to make Iran a nuclear power. Consider what his intentions were in doing so.
