Best Birthday Present Ever
For the last few weeks now, many, many people who have never seen America before have arrived to attend the World Cup — and their reaction has been nothing less than a national love fest. Told by their government media that The USA was a violent, soulless, bland corporate wasteland, they have discovered our natural beauty, our incredible food, and best of all the American natural character of open friendliness, great generosity and fierce national pride.
For Steve Green, Scott Ott and Bill Whittle, seeing the hundreds of awe-struck reactions to this incredible country of ours has been a transformational experience, not to mention a pure and deep joy. Here’s a new edition of The Right Angle.
The Great American Sleepover
World Cup fans came to America expecting the worst and left obsessed with free refills, ranch dressing, and Buc-ee’s.
Bridget Phetasy breaks down the Great American Sleepover, how we’re basically thirsty thots on Instagram excited that everyone thinks we’re pretty, why Europeans are treating gas stations like religious pilgrimages, and why America now deserves Greenland.
Here’s a new edition of Phetasy’s twice-weekly series The Dumpster Fire.
Europeans Can’t Comprehend
The World Cup is in America and Europeans are losing their minds — in the best possible way. A German named Freddy went tubing down the Chattahoochee, discovered Buc-ee’s, watched an eagle fly around a stadium, and declared it the most “European mind can’t comprehend” moment of his life.
A Swedish woman tried ranch dressing and said it was like crack. Bridget Phetasy breaks down why watching foreigners fall in love with Real America is the 250th birthday celebration we actually needed — and why we take all of it completely for granted.
Also: Tom Brady launched a coconut water brand called Good Nut and the slogan is “It’s a Delicious Mouthful.” Here’s Bridget with her latest edition of The Dumpster Fire.
World Cup Tourists Go Viral
I – like most of the Internet now – am obsessed with Freddy the German soccer fan. He is road tripping across America and documenting his experiences on X.
This might be more genuinely unifying and patriotic than anything coming out of America250.
It’s a great rebuttal to people who look down their noses at our country and claim we have no culture. Here’s more from Brett Cooper.
New Plague Or Nothing Burger?
A deadly virus is spreading around the globe. Health officials are scrambling to keep it contained. We’ve seen this movie before and we did not enjoy it.
But this time it’s a virus with a 40% mortality rate. Bridget Phetasy walks us through the hantavirus outbreak, how people are reacting to a potential Pandemic: The Sequel when our trust in our institutions is already shattered, and why the World Cup could be the accelerator event to a catastrophe.
Are any of us actually ready to do this again? Definitely not. Here’s more in a new episode of The Dumpster Fire.
Bankman-Fried Denied Bail
Sam Bankman-Fried, former CEO of the FTX cryptocurrency firm, was denied bail Wednesday when he appeared before a judge in the Bahamas. He cited his vegan diet and reliance on several medications as reasons justifying his release.
Meanwhile, the charges against Bankman-Fried reveal how he diverted his customers’ money, using those funds to make massive donations to political campaigns, mostly supporting Democratic candidates. More from Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti on Breaking Points.
