Like @realDonaldTrump or not, you must admit he has superhuman stamina. At age 78 woke up early in DC, flew to N Carolina, had entire tour & press event, flew cross COUNTRY to CA and at 1am ET still working, talking to press, not even done yet! WOW!

Incredible news: President @realDonaldTrump planning to tax excessively large private university endowments (which have benefited greatly from taxpayer $) to establish American Academy, a free online university for all. Purely academic. Now please make a med school. I’ll help!

🚨 GAVIN NEWSOM: YOU HAVE BEEN SERVED 🚨 This week, @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom was formally served with a notice of intent to recall. It had far more than the legally required number of signatures. There are several legal steps required before recall petitions can be circulated.

I fled Iran as a child, carrying in my heart the memories of women beaten in the streets for daring to wear makeup, of girls whose only crime was letting a strand of hair escape their scarves, and of neighbors dragged off to prison for refusing to bend to the regime’s cruelty.

🔥🤬🔥🤬🔥🤬🔥🤬🔥🤬🔥🤬 OMG IT GETS WORSE! Here’s the smoking gun! In his veto letter, @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom ADMITS that he vetoed the California Fireproofing Bill not because we don’t need it but because it would ruin his plan to force people into cities! He actually says

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 @GavinNewsom YOU ARE BUSTED @hamill_law accurately pointed out that in 2020 you inexplicably VETOED SB 182 that would have mandated FIRE PROOFING California! For this ALONE you deserve to be removed from office! What’s WRONG with you?!

I’m hearing very credible reports that @GavinNewsom & developers are collaborating to change the zoning in Pacific Palisades from R1 (single family) to R1 and R3 (adding apartments). Was told “it’s developers’ dream to pack that place with apartments.” There you go.

Replying to @yashar
This happens to us because of my frequent flier status. But guess what: I give the upgraded first class seat to my wife, and I sit in back with the kids. If we get 2 upgrades, my wife will get it with one kid. I'm always in the back. What's this guy's problem? Is it a joke?

🇺🇸 Having attended the parade, and the Army 250th festival on the National Mall before it, I agree with Senator @JohnFetterman. This had nothing to do with @realDonaldTrump & his birthday & any political party and everything to do with showing respect & gratitude for the Army.

This parade is comprised of our sons, daughters, mothers and fathers—the very best of us. Regardless of your politics, it’s appropriate to celebrate the 250 years of sacrifice, dedication and service. 🇺🇸

In 2007, as San Francisco Mayor, while married to Kimberly Guilfoyle, @GavinNewsom admitted to sleeping with the wife of his best friend & campaign manager. @CAgovernor YOU of ALL people should seriously sit down when it comes to criticizing others for such behavior. Wow.

The guy who paid $50,000 to silence his alleged sexual assault claims just renamed a Navy ship to erase a civil rights leader, dedicated public servant and decorated veteran. Pete Hegseth’s priorities are as rotten as his record.

🔥🔥 I just got this mass text from @GavinNewsom begging for donations to help firefighters. WHAT? We all already “donate” (by force) the HIGHEST taxes in the nation. Now you want more because you wasted OUR billions on your woke pet projects?! No thanks. I support them but

🔥🔥🔥 THIS SHOULD FRIGHTEN YOU: @GavinNewsom said re: his “Marshall Plan”: “We already have a team reimagining LA 2.0.” WHAT? He’s ALREADY had that team. Pre-fire. This means no single family zoning, public transit for ALL, equity/climate/DEI agenda. We need new leaders,

Gavin Newsom’s arrogance and outright hubris caused him to fall into the most obvious trap in modern political history. Sean Hannity played the long game, convinced Newsom they’re buddies, lured him into this debate, and then presented objective facts and figures on his failed

🔥 🤥 Last night, @MayorOfLA @KarenBassLA overtly LIED to President Trump & her own citizens when she said “And if individuals want to clear out their property that can.” Just returned from touring Palisades. Military checkpoints at EVERY street. Impossible to clear anything!
