There’s no better time than NOW for filibuster reform The clock’s ticking Let’s get it done

Borders matter When they fail, countries fall

@KatTimpf I’m so sorry to hear that. I’m a big fan of yours and am so saddened by this news. I lost my dad 30 years ago (he was only 61), and know how difficult this can be. I wish I had better words—capable of bringing comfort. I don’t. I will follow your advice by trying to serve others.

My seemingly healthy, strong father Daniel “Dad Timpf” Timpf died very unexpectedly on the evening of May 7 at just 69 years old.   It does not seem like enough to simply call him my father, because he was so much more than that. He was my rock, my hero and my best friend. He was loyal, funny, kind, selfless, hard-working, and so devoted to his children that it was impossible to be near him and not find yourself inspired. He was a writer, a painter, a sailor, and somehow knowledgeable on every subject from world history to literature to accounting. He was the most dependable person anyone has ever met. I always felt like, as long as I had his phone number, there was not a problem I could not solve. I needed him here with me; I am not okay, and I am far from the only person who feels this.   The birth of my son in February 2025, his first grandchild, was supposed to be a happy new beginning for our family. A family that had been already once devastated by an untimely loss: the loss of my mother Anne Marie to a rare disease in 2014 just a matter of weeks after her diagnosis.   The joy of my son’s birth was, of course, complicated by my also very unexpected breast cancer diagnosis just a matter of hours before going into labor with him. During this time, my dad did what he did best, which was to save the day. As soon as he heard about my diagnosis, he simply got into the car and started driving to New York -- making it through the tunnel just as my  son was born…on the day that happened to be his own birthday, as well.   In the tumultuous time of a simultaneous new cancer diagnosis and new baby, my dad was the sole reason for our stability, rushing in to help care for our son, and returning to do so again for my double mastectomy, reconstructive surgery, and any time that we ever needed him. It was an awful, awful year… but I found so much joy and hope throughout it by watching the beauty of a very special relationship form between my son and my father. This horrible thing that was happening was creating such a very special bond between the two of them -- almost making the terrible thing worth it -- and I was so excited to see how that bond would grow.   The bond was of top priority for my father, who visited from Michigan often. I saw him last on the Monday before he died, and my son was so proud to help his grandfather push his suitcase down to the car as he left. The goodbyes were quick. Why wouldn’t they be? We would all see each other again at the beginning of June, when we would all head to Texas for my shows and to see my grandpa. We wanted to make sure that my son could spend as much time as he could with his great-grandfather. He is, after all, 93.   I was certainly not over the trauma of my cancer or having to amputate the breasts I so badly wanted to feed my son with, but the one thing I could always count on to get me through my worst moments was seeing my son’s and my father’s faces light up when they saw each other, be it during the visits or our routine morning and bedtime FaceTime calls.   That is, at least, until I had to hear over the phone from a doctor I had never met in an emergency room in the same town up north that I’d previously announced to my father that I was pregnant that my dad was dead; I would never see him again, and neither would my son. It would turn out that last year was not the hard one, after all. Rather, it was the one I would now do anything to relive. I would amputate my breasts every year just to be able to speak with him one more time, even for five minutes.   I am currently living an unimaginable horror. For many people, this is a tragic story. For me, it’s my life. I do not know how I will recover from it. I only know that I have to for the sake of what is left of my family.

This list is incomplete and unfair

Rather than lawlessly condemning SCOTUS, Dems should listen to Ari Fleischer: “For decades, Republicans lived with Supreme Court rulings they didn’t like. [With] Roe v. Wade, [they] didn’t say ‘we need to rig the Supreme Court.’ They worked within the system to change the way things worked.”

@Jdkoa @RepDonBacon @RepAdrianSmith Freedom matters!

@BasedMikeLee Yes, even as a Nebraska citizen, I abhor these mandates. @RepDonBacon @RepAdrianSmith

Ethanol mandates suck. American consumers should be free to decide whether to put corn in their gas tanks. Would you prefer to make that decision yourself—rather than having it made for you by Congress?

ALIEN SPACESHIPS & DEAD SCIENTISTS Dead scientists, UFO files, and growing questions the government can’t ignore. This week I investigate what’s really going on. I'm also joined by political scientist Carol Swain, who wrote the classic study of race-based gerrymandering, to discuss the partisan battle over voting districts.

U.S. Supreme Court ≠ Virginia Supreme Court

@JasonMiyaresVA Hmm

Good News: Dems managed to spell Virginia correctly. Bad News: They sent their emergency application to SCOTUS to the wrong court. Baby steps.

How and why did OpenAI suppress security measures, leading to the death of Sam Nelson?

This is how the U.S. government hides the true cost of government from you: By gradually making every dollar you earn less valuable, with a huge assist from the Federal Reserve Balance the budget End the Fed Time for a constitutional reset

Medicaid = fertile ground for fraud Endless federal funding managed by state officials makes accountability elusive Time for a constitutional reboot

@elonmusk @dezelan_james Thank you for saving free speech

🇺🇸🇺🇸

All dead voters supported Biden? What a coincidence!

How long before leftists try taking over trade schools?

“Trust me bro” DMV voter registration + open borders = disaster for election integrity Pass SAVE America now!

Me reading Wickard v. Filburn

Here’s a more accurate headline: “Supreme Court allows Alabama to comply with the Constitution, which prohibits racial gerrymandering.”

This would be the end of our independent federal judiciary

Don’t believe the lies SAVE America imposes no poll tax and would disenfranchise no American But it would stop noncitizens from voting
