You can find me watching college football. King of Wisconsin Badgers athletics. Gunslinger at @Outkick.
These attack on Nick Adams are such bullshit. “Nick Adams (Alpha Male)” was a character that did what more people on social media should do: have fun. If you are you going to write about the real Nick Adams, @RollingStone, maybe write about his foundation, his political work back…
Donald Trump has made a lot of unconventional appointments since winning a second term in the White House. But he may have outdone himself by tapping Nick Adams to serve as the United States ambassador to Malaysia. Story: rollingstone.com/politics/polit…
The Bryan Kohberger sentencing hearing is one of the WILDEST court scenes I've ever seen. It's absolutely nuts. He's getting roasted by family member after family member.
Kristi Goncalves (Kaylee’s mom): “your fellow inmates will be awaiting your arrival.” Reading her younger daughter’s mssg: “you may have received As in school but in prison you’ll be getting Big Ds.”
Big Ten Media Days being held in Las Vegas makes perfect sense. When I think of gritty cold weather Midwest football, Vegas is definitely the first location that comes to mind.
It's the time of year where I start convincing myself Wisconsin will be good at football this season......and deep down, I know I'm just setting myself up for heartbreak. Why do we do this to our mental health every year?
You do this in a gunfight against anyone with basic skills and you’ll be dead before your hand touches the slide.
In Israel, they don't carry a round in the chamber. This is their quick-draw technique.
Senior White House official tells me this is completely false.
President Trump will reportedly sign an executive order to limit NIL money for players sbnation.com/college-footba…
UPDATE: Army now tells me they will not issue any further statement on Tim Kennedy allegedly k*lling women and children and shooting people not actively fighting. They will also not discuss the claim he did 20 combat deployments. They've gone completely radio silent. Very odd.
Everyone with a brain saw what's happening right now in Syria coming. Turns out letting a terrorist run a fractured country is a recipe for disaster and mass death. But at least Assad is gone! Will any of the people who cheered this on admit they were wrong?
Would @Safeway like to explain to me why armed security stopped me from exiting and demanded to search my stuff? 1) Nobody with a gun should ever walk up on me and issue demands unless they're a uniformed cop. 2) What exactly about me fits the D.C. crime profile?
Smart tweet from @burackbobby_ about the Epstein saga.
I know the upside is in taking a side. However, per usual, multiple statements seem true at once pertaining to the Epstein situation. -- The idea that there's incriminating evidence against Donald Trump doesn't check out. Merrick Garland had access to the same info as Bondi. You…
One year ago today, the world witnessed a miracle when President Donald Trump was shot in the ear. A quarter of a fraction inward and we'd be living in a different country. Politics aside, his reaction was epic.
Tucker Carlson calls for SEAL Team 6 and Delta Force to hit the cartels and wipe them out. I've been saying it since Trump returned to office. We have the greatest military on the planet. We need to use it to protect our people.
Watching Sinners again. Outstanding movie. Hollywood needs more original ideas. No more superhero trash.
I emphatically support @NickAdamsinUSA as the next ambassador to Malaysia. It’s awesome to see a guy who loves America crushing it, and nobody is better to bring a love of steak and cold domestics to the great Malaysian people than Nick.
Full disclosure, I deleted all clips of my interviews with Tim Kennedy. If someone is going to share lies then I won’t allow those clips to stay up. I regret interviewing him, and I should have pushed back on claims that in hindsight are ridiculous. Let the truth come out.
Agree. @dhookstead is one of the best journalists I’ve worked with, covering stories no one else wants to touch. Big week for him. 👊
Well done @dhookstead for making this man somewhat admit to the awful things he lied about, repeatedly. This doesn’t feel like an apology to me but it’s a start and it wouldn’t have happened if you hadn’t leaned in.
With Tim Kennedy back in the news getting crushed for more insane and almost always fake stories, please understand that most veterans aren't like him. There are incredible men who you will never hear about who did exceptional things for this country. They deserve respect.
America is the greatest country on the planet. Everyone else is fighting for second place. Happy 4th of July. Have a great day with whatever you're getting up to.
It’s officially past midnight and the 4th of July. I love this country and will never apologize for it. We are a country of rebels who dare to dream to conquer the unknown. I was born here and I will die. God bless the USA and all the patriots.
