@RepLuna As soon as Trump does

It is unacceptable for Swalwell to end his campaign for Governor yet remain in Congress. Eric, either resign now or I will call a vote for expulsion. This type of behavior has no place in the U.S. Capitol.

@Franklin_Graham You just described the GOP House and Senate

@JasonJournoDC Also, we would have no tariffs, inflation, Iran War, high gas prices, etc

💥NEW VDH on TRUMP: "I have criticism of him ... But that PALES in my mind to the alternative — living in California and seeing what Newsom has done and what the Left will do if they get in power. If Harris was president right now, you would have another 10 MILLION people here."

@jakeshieldsajj No President ever forced Iran to close it

If Trump is able to open the Strait of Hormuz he will be the greatest president in American history No president before him even attempted to negotiate to open it You are playing chess while the president is playing 5D chess MAGA for life

@MichaelARothman He also said that about their Nuclear program when they were bombed in October. Yet, here we are

Vance, Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner. Iran’s 10-point peace proposal — which Trump called “𝘢 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘩 𝘵𝘰 𝘯𝘦𝘨𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦” — is on the table. Trump’s assessment of Iran’s position: “𝘈𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘱𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘰𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘶𝘴. 𝘗𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘩.” On the Strait of Hormuz — the global chokepoint Iran mined in desperation — Trump announced the U.S. is now 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 “𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐫” 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝: “𝘞𝘦’𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘏𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘶𝘻 𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘧𝘢𝘷𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥, 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘭𝘶𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘢, 𝘑𝘢𝘱𝘢𝘯, 𝘚𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘩 𝘒𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘢.

Iran reportedly doesn’t even have a proper map of where its own mines are — and some have drifted (per 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘕𝘦𝘸 𝘠𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘛𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴).

@cecegkh How much has he collection from the secret service?

Just a reminder that from January 20, 2025, President Trump has been paid exactly $0.00 for everything he has to for our country! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@BoLoudon How much has Trump made off the secret service

Here's the total amount of taxpayer $ the past 10 Presidents took as salary: Trump: $0.00 Biden: $1.6 Million Obama: $3.2 Million W Bush: $3.2 Million Clinton: $1.6 million HW Bush: $800K Reagan: $1.6 Million Carter: $800K Ford: $500K Nixon: $1.1 Million

@FernandoAmandi Can you believe we have a Pope who follows the Bible?

𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑 𝐃𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐒 𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐒𝐎𝐍: 𝐓𝐇𝐄 "𝐖𝐀𝐑 𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐒" 𝐋𝐈𝐄 (𝟑/𝟔) 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐊𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐅𝐥𝐞𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐇𝐞'𝐬 𝐍𝐨𝐰 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐖𝐚𝐫 𝐂𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬 19:56 VDH drops the hammer on Mark Kelly and Ro Khanna — and this one left a mark. Senator Kelly has been calling Trump a war criminal. But Kelly was an A-6E Intruder pilot in the first Gulf War — 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐲-𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐛𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 over Kuwait and Iraq, two Distinguished Flying Crosses (U.S. Navy). VDH explains what those A-6E tactical missions actually were: "𝘛𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘯𝘢𝘷𝘢𝘭 𝘱𝘪𝘭𝘰𝘵𝘴 𝘧𝘭𝘦𝘸 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘭𝘶𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘩𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴, 𝘩𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘛𝘝 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴, 𝘩𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘴, 𝘩𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘨𝘦𝘴." The exact same dual-use targets he now wants Trump charged for threatening. Kelly faithfully carried out orders to hit a power plant, a TV station, a bridge, a rail line — "𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘩𝘦 𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘳𝘴 𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘱𝘦𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘳." Then there's Ro Khanna, who is equating bridge strikes and military-industrial targets to 𝐍𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐠. VDH, the classicist, asks the question Khanna never bothered to research: "𝘋𝘰 𝘸𝘦 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘰𝘧 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘺 𝘢𝘵 𝘕𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘮𝘣𝘦𝘳𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘣𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘶𝘱 𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘨𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘺?" What was actually tried at Nuremberg? The Soviets — who sat on the judging panel — had starved 𝐬𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 people under German control. They had the two largest encirclements in history, trapping two million people. 𝐓𝐞𝐧 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐝. They deliberately starved them. And the Russians still sat in judgment. The American position at Nuremberg was morally defensible and consistent: "𝘞𝘦 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘣𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘺. 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘵. 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘣𝘰𝘮𝘣𝘦𝘥 𝘗𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘭 𝘏𝘢𝘳𝘣𝘰𝘳. 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘬!𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘢𝘵𝘢𝘢𝘯 𝘋𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩. 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘶𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘦 — 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘬!𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 16 𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮." The Allies k!lled 𝐬𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐝 French civilians in the liberation bombing — more than the Germans did. That came up at Nuremberg. And that generation didn't flinch. Ro Khanna compares Trump's one bridge to that. VDH's assessment: "𝘏𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯'𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘩𝘦'𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘢 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯." Two days ago he wanted Trump charged with war crimes and impeached. Today he called the ceasefire effort "pathetic." As VDH puts it: "𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘵, 𝘙𝘰? 𝘋𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘩𝘪𝘮 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘰 𝘣𝘰𝘮𝘣 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘳𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘳 𝘥𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘩𝘪𝘮 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘥𝘯'𝘵 𝘣𝘰𝘮𝘣 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘳𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦?" 𝐊𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬. 𝐊𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐚 𝐜𝐚𝐧'𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐚 𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤.

@SenTuberville Slavery and genocide are Christian values?

I don’t give a RIP about being politically correct. Here’s the truth: America was founded on CHRISTIAN values. If you refuse to assimilate and follow our laws, love our country, and be a proud AMERICAN… then LEAVE. We don’t want you here. foxnews.com/media/washingt…

@highbrow_nobrow @Acyn Uh, does this mean you are going after your boss?

@newtgingrich What if Iran bombed and straifed our ship, killing american sailors? Oh wait, that was the USS Liberty

What if in the next decade or two Iranian missiles armed with nuclear warheads destroy several American cities? If we were to lose Chicago, Seattle, or New York, the scapegoating would begin. gingrich360.net/p/if-we-lose-c…

@newtgingrich But Trump declared he obliterated their nuclear program in October

@VDHanson @jackfowler The straits were closed because of Trump. No he has gotten them back open and he is a genius?

Victor Davis Hanson and host @jackfowler discuss President Trump’s profane Easter warning to Iran and frame it as a “Nixon madman” bad-cop/good-cop strategy involving JD Vance, while contrasting Trump’s decisive military rescue efforts with past administrations’ failures. They also examine the California high-speed rail project as a costly “train to nowhere,” citing billions spent without laying track, eminent domain damage to farmland, and doubts about long-term profitability, alongside broader claims of massive fraud in California programs. youtu.be/UM00LxVCOQY?si…

@VDHanson @jackfowler amazing the lengths the good Dr will go to make Trump look smart.

@MichaelARothman As usual, Dr Hanson doesn't tell the whole story.

Hanson’s conclusion is the one Washington refuses to say: the alliance is 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝. Europe can’t fight, won’t pay, and won’t even get out of the way. The question isn’t whether NATO survives — it’s whether it deserves to. 𝐀𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚 𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐎 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚 𝐫𝐮𝐧𝐰𝐚𝐲. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐧𝐨. 𝐕𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐃𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐬 𝐇𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲.
