I opened my NYTimes app today. They’re trying, but they can’t keep up. News that broke just hours ago is already off the homepage. THIS IS CRUCIAL The entire liberal deep state command and control system is broken. Let me explain 🧵

Look, I get it, Dems. You think nuking USAID is dumb. You think handing government computers to Big Balls is dumb. You think blaming the plane crash on DEI is dumb. You think JD’s speech in Europe is dumb. Fine. Maybe you’re right. Maybe you’re wrong. Whatever. But that’s not

I can’t share the details on how @michaelgwaltz & @SecRubio have, in just a few days, organized the greatest opposition to UN policy since the Cold War and blocked this UN Carbon Tax. I can say it was a knife fight to the end. “I’ve been in this industry for 30 years and I’ve

Yesterday, for the first time, I turned my back on a liberal neighbor and walked away. For Charlie. I get asked daily by conservatives how I can possibly live in the most liberal town of the most liberal state. Truth is, I’ve always been fascinated by how they think. I usually

Once in Paris I decided I was going to blow every frequent flier mile I had to take the Concorde home Ticket agent said “this is crazy, you’re going to regret this someday” so I decided against it. 20 years later I can say walking away was the wrong choice

“EVERYONE In EVERY MOS… including in the air and AT SEA… must have basic proficiency in basic combat skills” WE DID IT. We got massive pushback from Naval officers who do not want to carry a sidearm or visit the range. Now the Secretary of War has ruled in our favor 🤩🤩👇

Incredible clip. Biden’s #2 at the Pentagon, Kathleen Hicks, explains why the DoD can’t pass an audit. But now we know the real reason. If you thought USAID was bad, buckle up—@DOGE is coming to the five sided Death Star
