America's First Stand Against Religious Piracy: The Barbary Wars
In 1786, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams met Tripoli's ambassador in London to ask why North African states were attacking American ships, kidnapping sailors, and enslaving them—despite no prior conflict with the young U.S.
The ambassador's blunt answer: It was founded on the Laws of their Prophet, written in their Koran—that all nations not acknowledging their authority were sinners, it was their right and duty to make war on them, enslave captives, and that every Muslim slain in battle went straight to paradise.
Jefferson refused to pay endless tribute as blackmail. When Tripoli declared war in 1801, he sent the U.S. Navy and Marines to fight back—blockading ports, torching the captured USS Philadelphia in a legendary raid by Stephen Decatur, and marching to victory at Derna (inspiring "to the shores of Tripoli" in the Marine Corps Hymn).
America ended the piracy, freed its people, and proved we'd never submit to extortion masked as religious duty. Proud of our founders drawing the line from the start.

@SRCC @LeaderJohnThune Do not invoke cloture until we have 60 votes for the SAVE America Act.
I mean this respectfully, but we are not going to let this issue go.
The American people gave you the majority & we demand results.
We demand election integrity.
Pass the SAVE America Act!

Victor Davis Hanson: Iran Reached Its Peak Under Biden
Iran terrified the Arab world with its threats of a “ring of fire,” yet Joe Biden did nothing except try to push them back into the Iran deal.
The admin agreed to lift sanctions, and Iran walked away with roughly a hundred billion dollars in oil revenue.
“They reached their apex of influence and power during the Biden years. They basically ran the Red Sea. They flew in transport planes and supplied the Houthis with thousands of missiles and drones. And under Biden, the Houthis controlled the Red Sea. He didn’t do anything.”
Victor Davis Hanson asked in the newest episode of "Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words."

Financial markets do not want Jay Powell forever, and Powell is being an egotistical fool for staying on the board. As Oliver Cromwell once said, "In the name of God, go" and #FreeKevinWarsh

🚨 BOOM! Katie Britt just said what everyone’s thinking during the SAVE America Act fight
Democrats demand ID for everything, from basic work to entering their own rallies… but suddenly not when it comes to elections?
Even she called it out, stand with the American people and pass this already
Send it to President Trump 🇺🇸
By any means necessary.

Senate Majority Leader Thune,
I’m cognizant that I’ve been respectfully posting to you for 78 days. I’ve kept my language peaceful, cerebral, & focused on policy.
First, I wanted to thank you for bringing the SAVE America Act to the Senate floor for debate.
Second, please continue debate on the bill & do NOT invoke cloture on the SAVE America Act unless we have 60 votes.
Third, please consider continuing to work through the weekend &/or not recessing from March 30 - April 10.
If you made that decision & focused on reopening the Department of Homeland Security, you & your Republican caucus would be heroes to millions of Americans, as well as the unpaid TSA agents.
Furthermore, please know that we can be your greatest allies. We can be your bullhorn. We can be your peaceful ammunition. We can give you the support of millions of voices that desperately want election security.
The single most important piece of legislation we care about is the SAVE America Act — proof of citizenship & voter ID.
By the way, I’ll be in Rapid City & Sioux Falls this weekend — peacefully.
Look forward to hearing from you.

It’s safe to say Americans are taking their IDs out regularly and having a pretty easy go of it.
Yet when it comes to voting, Democrats talk like requiring a photo ID is some insurmountable burden.
If that were true, why would Democrats be requiring a photo ID for their voters to get into their campaign events?

Today, we unveiled our completed Critical Test Reactor facility.
We will be turning this reactor on (a “zero power criticality”) well before July 4th!
This is a commercial-scale system with enough fuel to produce 10 MW of electricity, and will someday soon power a co-located data center from one of our partners.
Here’s what people saw today at our ribbon cutting:
✅ Reactor vessel
✅ Graphite as moderator
✅ Instrumentation and control
✅ Concrete shielding
✅ Building with crane
✅ Control room
All designed and built by Aalo.
And the nuclear fuel will be arriving any day now.
One last step remains: the final DOE approval to turn the reactor on, which we expect to receive soon. DOE has been an incredible partner in this 2.5 year journey, working hard to support a number of companies pushing to advance US nuclear energy.
Follow us to be the first to know when we turn this reactor on!

Thanks to @POTUS, the United States is the world’s top oil and natural gas producer. We are also the largest natural gas exporter and a top oil exporter. To be clear, the Trump administration has no plan to implement restrictions on oil and gas exports.

Congratulations to @federalreserve, @USOCC, and @FDICgov, on today’s Basel Capital Proposal.
Today’s outdated capital requirements are needlessly complex and misaligned with their actual objective. Rather than solving for safety and soundness, they are pushing lending out of the regulated banking system while simultaneously impeding economic growth.
The last Administration aimed to hijack the Basel modernization effort to reverse-engineer ever-higher capital requirements without rhyme or reason. Under President Trump’s leadership, we have taken a principled and calibrated approach that simplifies capital requirements and fosters a level playing field for banks of all sizes.
If finalized, this proposal would advance those goals, fostering economic growth through our regulatory regime.
Today is an important step in the regulatory reset our Administration is working towards, marking meaningful progress toward a financial system that builds Parallel Prosperity for Main Street and Wall Street.

.@POTUS on Japan's support in the Iran operation: "We've had tremendous support and relationship with Japan on everything, and I believe that based on statements that were given to us yesterday...having to do with Japan, they are really stepping up to the plate, yes."

Victor Davis Hanson: European schizophrenia? They want to be an ally, but they don't want to be an ally
What is it with the fickle Europeans? I know that they have different interests than ours, but we're both Western entities. You'd think that we'd be more collaborative on Iran.
Don't they have a fear of Iran? I mean, there was a joint missile defense project. Obama canceled it in that infamous quid pro quo hot mic conversation where he'd made a deal with the Russians to give him space so he could get reelected.
They're scared to death of a nuclear Iran, but they don't want to do anything about it.

Chief Justice John Roberts just got TORCHED for dodging the real crisis!
“You complain about temperature while ignoring the fire. One judge in Hawaii can block a presidential order impacting 330M Americans, that's re-writing law, NOT interpreting it.”
One judge shouldn't control the whole country. Am i right?

This is exactly the problem.
When voter rolls contain millions of outdated or ineligible registrations—including non-citizens—it creates serious vulnerabilities in our elections. Ignoring those weaknesses only erodes public trust.
Strong voter ID laws, accurate voter rolls, and real accountability are not “controversial.” They are the bare minimum for election integrity.
Every legal vote deserves to be protected—and every ineligible vote must be prevented. That’s how you safeguard our constitutional republic.
AAGHarmeetDhillon@AAGDhillon
The review of 50–60 million voter records has revealed there are thousands of ineligible and outdated registrations—including non-citizens. Some of them voted. More to come! That is what happens when strong voter ID safeguards are absent—and @TheJusticeDept will not tolerate it.

@freep I hope the Feds come to Michigan and oversee the voting. If there is no fraud as democrats claim, why would anyone be worried? What do democrats have to hide?
