This week, the Senate is advancing @POTUS' judicial and national security nominations, working on housing affordability, and more. We're also pushing back on efforts from Democrats to undermine the President's goal of ending Iran's nuclear threat. And congratulations to

Few Americans embodied faith and freedom like John Peter Muhlenberg. A pastor, soldier, and politician, he didn't leave his faith at the pulpit. He carried it into battle. As we celebrate America's 250th birthday, his story is worth remembering.

If we want a stronger nation, we need dads loving their kids and spending time with them, helping them know how to walk with God, teaching them to live a patriotic life, and showing them how to serve their family and community.

From stopping an ISIS election-day plot in Oklahoma to foiling an attack on a Taylor Swift concert overseas, and countless other threats most Americans never hear about, FISA authorities have saved lives. We should be using every tool available to monitor terrorists abroad who

Every year my Federal Fumbles book exposes waste and fraud like a daycare that doesn’t exist getting millions in funding, or a company billing for prosthetic limbs mailed to no one. I challenge all 99 of my Senate colleagues to do the same, because none of it helps our economy.

It was great meeting with Jay Clayton today. As US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Jay has prosecuted terrorists and international cartels, and that will be helpful national security experience for this next role. I look forward to his swift confirmation to be our

MLB needs to fix the contradiction: a pride flag is fine, but a Bible verse gets a warning? Faith isn't a violation. Treat it that way.

Iran isn't stronger. Its inflation is roughly 70%, its GDP per capita is on par with Haiti's, its economy is collapsing all around it, and its military is decimated. That's not a 'stronger' nation. President Trump made America safer by making Iran weaker.

For 47 years, Iran has attacked the United States, our allies, and every American they could find in the region. The people of Iran live under the oppression of the regime, and the United States has spent billions of dollars each year defending ourselves from the threat. For over

Obama's nuclear deal with Iran was so bad even Biden didn't reinstitute it. @POTUS was right to tear it up.

The Biden administration failed our country with their open border policies. For years, I have highlighted the hundreds of thousands of children that were lost and trafficked under his administration. @SecMullinDHS's work to find these children has been extraordinary. The work is

The Trump Administration has located 146,000 unaccompanied migrant children who crossed the open border — many of whom were being trafficked, abused, and exploited. Democrats allowed this tragedy to happen.
