41 years ago today: the iconic Air Jordan 1s went on sale to the public. Retail price in 1985: $65

FREEEEEEEBIRDDDDD YEAHHHH 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 🌕🌗🌘

American optimism hasn't been this high in decades. Godspeed patriots. We are so back.

Can’t believe I am here to witness and film this major historical achievement for America in person! Artemis II’s launch was a MAJOR success thanks to the incredible leadership of President Trump’s @NASA administrator Jared Isaacman @NASAAdmin @rookisaacman! I’m speechless!🇺🇸

"Tonight at 6:24 P.M. EST, for the first time in over 50 YEARS, America is going back to the Moon! Artemis II, among the most powerful rockets ever built, is launching our Brave Astronauts farther into Deep Space than any human has EVER gone. We are WINNING, in Space, on Earth, and everywhere in between — Economically, Militarily, and now, BEYOND THE STARS." - President Donald J. Trump 🇺🇸

History is being rewritten, the Redskins are back.

TODAY. 🚀 ARTEMIS II. AROUND THE MOON FOR ALL HUMANITY.

Trump 'strongly considering' pulling US out of NATO over Iran, alliance a 'paper tiger': report trib.al/JqIaifo

NATO is dead. There's no use in prolonging the inevitable. Europe has shown us their true colors this month. They are not our ally, then they cannot be trusted or relied on when we need them. It's time to cut the umbilical cord.

Can we please stop all NATO funding and support for every nation refusing to allow the U.S. to use bases and airspace for Epic Fury? Better yet, get us out of NATO altogether.

The US is considering cutting all defense deals with the UK and France.

Fucking Finally. The Lion of Mar-a-Lago has roared with that signature, unfiltered lethality, and the message slices through the European delusion like a Tomahawk through a command bunker: the age of American subsidy for your parasitic cowardice is fucking over. To the sniveling, jet-fuel-starved cock-suckers of the United Kingdom and its spineless continental cohorts...listen the fuck up. For eighty years we have bled treasure, blood, and industrial supremacy to underwrite your decadent existence. From the Marshall Plan’s reconstruction of your war-ravaged empires to the carrier battle groups that have patrolled the Persian Gulf since the Tanker War of the 1980s, America has been your unpaid mercenary, your nuclear umbrella, your global logistics backbone. NATO? Nothing more than the North American Tribute Organization...where the United States shoulders over sixty-five percent of the alliance’s actual spending while your militaries have atrophied into hollow parade-ground husks, underfunded, undermanned, and equipped with yesterday’s gear because you chose cradle-to-grave welfare states and green virtue-signaling over steel and resolve. Geopolitically, the Strait of Hormuz is no academic footnote: it is the jugular vein of the world economy, funneling twenty-one percent of global petroleum liquids...nineteen million barrels a day...through a narrow chokepoint that asymmetric Iranian tactics...mines, anti-ship missiles, speedboat swarms...were designed to threaten precisely because they knew direct confrontation with American naval power was suicide. We and our Israeli partners have done the hard kinetic work...the precision decapitation of their leadership structure. The heavy lifting is finished. Now these same European freeloaders, who lacked the spine to commit forces when it mattered, dare complain about disrupted sea lanes? Decades of Pax Americana have bred in you a terminal strategic infantilism: a learned helplessness wrapped in smug moral superiority. You lecture the world on the “rules-based order” while outsourcing your survival to American sons and daughters. History is merciless on this point...from the Suez Crisis of 1956, when your imperial twilight exposed the limits of European power projection without U.S. backing, to the present. Your elites are psychologically castrated by comfort; your populations softened by entitlement. You forgot that freedom of navigation is not a birthright...it is enforced by gun, steel, and the will to use them. President Trump’s directive is surgical in its venomous precision: Number One, buy the fucking fuel from us...we have plenty. Number Two, grow some long-overdue balls, reconstitute what remains of your navies, sail into the Strait, and TAKE IT. No more American taxpayers dying to keep your fighters in the sky and your economies from freezing in the dark while you backstab and virtue-signal. The parasite has fed on the host long enough. The era of the United States as Europe’s security guard, banker, and scapegoat is closed. Fight for your own oil or learn to live without it. Adapt or wither. The choice is yours, but the protection racket is finished. Grow a fucking spine or don't. We don't give a fuck anymore. 💀🗡️⚖️

1776: We declared freedom. 250 years later, no nation comes close. 🇺🇸🦅

NCAA tournament basketball is so much better of a product than NBA basketball is, it’s not even close.

God Bless our military heroes! 🇺🇸

The samurai & the cowboy are natural allies. And I'm tired of pretending like we're not.
