After 7 seasons, American Ninja Warrior finally has an American winner to claim the million-dollar prize.
In these times of constitutional crisis, when a reality-TV gameshow host/president is slowly delegitimizing the rule of law, it can be hard to find hope. But the sun is shining, and we live to fight again. Leading the charge: This chicken playing "My Country 'Tis of Thee" on a keyboard.
Refill the cup of patriotism and wave your miniture American flag with pride. Old glory, she's still got a few tricks up her sleeve..

Mmmm… 'Murica!
Competitive eater Molly Schuyler broke a new record this weekend, eating 3 72-oz steaks in less than 20 minutes.
At this year's 72oz Showdown at the Big Texan Steak Ranch in Amarillo, Texas, Schuyler was matched up against four teams of two, and she singlehandedly destroyed her competition while besting herself in the process.
The other teams included professional wrestlers and football players and they each had one hour to throw down as much as they could.
In total, Schuyler, who weighs just 124 pounds, ate 3 steaks, 3 backed potatoes, 3 shrimp cocktails, 3 side salads and 3 rolls.
Basically, as The Big Texan describes it, she consumed more than 13.5 pounds of food which is "the equivalent of a bowling ball or averaged sized three-month-old baby."
Schuyler not only got the 3 free meals, but also a $5,000 prize… and apparently an extended trip to the bathroom.
