Serving in Congress should be a temporary honor, not a permanent career. We need to turn politicians back into public servants who answer to the people. 🗳️🇺🇸 Agree? Like and Share this post! #TermLimits #DemandChange #PublicService

@RapSheet Because it is less effective, suddenly all the injury concerns go away.

One note out of the NFL conference call before the Annual League Meeting: There is no proposal to ban the Tush Push and overall the percentages of use and success are down. "There is less talk about it in the football community," Competition Committee chair Rich McKay said.

@thehill Pay TSA! Stop paying Congress!

$6 trillion in assets. $47 trillion in liabilities. $88 trillion more in off-balance-sheet obligations. By any standard accounting definition, the U.S. Treasury is insolvent, and we are headed toward a Nightmare on Main Street. @DavidMWalker7 and @steve_hanke on what it'll take to get out of this: fortune.com/2026/03/23/us-…

Toxic partisanship isn't just frustrating for voters. It's also frustrating members of Congress who want to get things done. It's why so many members are heading for the exits. Former Sen. @JeffFlake shares how ranked choice voting can make Congress work better for all of us.⬇️

I don’t think people realize how much healthcare costs are driving big companies to fire and not hire. It costs them $30k per family, per year for premiums and care. Most of that goes to the massive, vertically integrated insurance companies that send weekly bills that no one reviews in details. And it doesn’t include the company overhead to deal with it all. It’s usually the 2nd largest expense after payroll. Which is insane It’s far easier to blame AI than it is to blame Healthcare costs. Want to increase jobs, wages and improve affordability for every American ? Break up the biggest insurance companies. Make divest non insurance companies. They don’t need thousands of subsidiaries. That’s how they game and abuse the system and increase costs for all of us. Call your senator and tell them to support the BreakUp Big Medicine Bill by @HawleyMO and @SenWarren.

@smerconish Skepticism is okay, but hopefully a deal gets done (so long as it ends Iran’s nuclear ambitions),

Yesterday’s poll showed an overwhelming belief that the new U.S.–Iran talks will NOT be successful, with a large majority of voters expressing skepticism. Do you agree with this result? Vote on today’s poll 🗳️ at smerconish.com

@smerconish With Americans increasingly doubting election integrity, maybe mail in ballots should have an earlier due date so all ballots can be counted on Election Day. The longer we wait for results the more time for seeds of doubt to be planted.

Should mail-in ballots have to be received by Election Day to be counted? Listen to Michael's thoughts on The Smerconish Podcast 💭 link.podtrac.com/smerconishpod Then cast your vote 🗳️ at smerconish.com

@RepTimMooreNC Why was it off track for the 1st 13 months of the Trump admin?

Glad to see our new U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin confirmed by the Senate tonight! I look forward to working with him to get Western North Carolina recovery back on track and reform FEMA.

@thehill Make Congress work the TSA lines during their recess without pay.

More than 400 TSA employees quit since shutdown began thehill.com/policy/transpo…

@EdKrassen @Scaramucci Trump and any Congressman voting against paying TSA should be required to work at the airport without pay.

BREAKING: Republican Senator Kennedy just blamed Trump the government shutdown! "The Democrats have offered to open up everything but ICE. Ted Cruz and I said, ‘OK let’s accept their offer…’ Senator Thune submitted that to President Trump. As is his right, [Trump] said ‘No! No deals with the Democrats.’ It would have worked. We could have had TSA paid by the end of the week but the President said ‘no deal.’” This is the DONALD TRUMP SHUTDOWN! Even Republicans are acknowledging it.

Alabama is considering a major change to its elections—and it should concern anyone who cares about voter power. al.com/news/2026/03/a…

@Jamesjonesik8 The lost pay should also not be retroactive. Congressional staff should also not get paid.

🚨BREAKING: Sen. Kennedy’s bill just moved forward, and it hits Congress where it hurts: NO paycheck for senators during a shutdown. If they can’t keep the government open, why should taxpayers keep paying them? Do you firmly support this?
