Leavitt begins the press briefing: "Could you hear our 'amen' in there? We just had a little loud prayer as a team. In this holy week, President Trump and the First Lady are joining in prayer with Christians celebrating the resurrection of our lord and savior, Jesus Christ."

@steelers1288 @evan7257 This feels similar to that thing about 100 monkeys with 100 typewriters clanking away for 100 will eventually produce Shakespeare's greatest works.

Dwight D. Eisenhowser was born in Denison, Texas on October 14, 1890. The Eye of Hurricane Ike 🌀, September 1-15, 2008, passed directly over Denison, Texas. Two 2️⃣ U.S. Presidents were born in Texas: •Dwight D. Eisenhower: Born in Denison, Texas, in 1890, though raised in Kansas. •Lyndon B. Johnson: Born in Stonewall, Texas, in 1908.

"I’ll be honest, the fact that the “Ike Dike” is still mainly a plan on paper nearly 20 years after Ike is a little troubling. Metaphorically, my concern for hurricanes is what keeps me up at night. I take this stuff seriously." spacecityweather.com/matt-will-be-l…

@SpaceCityWX @mattlanza Super sad to see Matt go. But also what a red flag that the weather guy everyone knows, says to effect "hey Houston, the weather sucks, I'm out."

So, @mattlanza has some news to share. After almost 15 years in Houston, his family will be relocating to the Northeast this summer. It's a bittersweet move, he explains what's up and why *nothing is changing* with SCW or The Eyewall: spacecityweather.com/matt-will-be-l…

It's absolute crazy to see @GregAbbott_TX speak out against semi-credible accusations of sexual assault against minors (Cesar Chavez) all while trying to get an endorsement from one (Donald Trump.)

@hunterhhedge @TOG_NATION @sentdefender Almost clever, but very clearly a “what about…” lame. Americans should be upset to see their service members a d tax dollars blown up for a war congress gave no approval for.

I’m literally taking in his info and stating that in the overall context - the massive damage and thousands killed from the regime - Iran is getting clobbered and I am aware with the reality of the fight. Nobody said they wouldn’t land a few. It’s a war. But they’re complete dogshit and it shows. I’m not a “neocon”, not that you even know what that means.

Satellite imagery appears to confirm a U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker has been destroyed and several others possibly damaged, as a result of an Iranian attack earlier today, utilizing ballistic missiles and drones, against Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. Image credit: @tom_bike

@Thesagemann @Acyn Trump spends like 50 hours a week golfing and fucking around. He could’ve gone and voted in person further. It’s poor leadership to expect others to do differently than you yourself are willing to do. Lead by example.

Trump's point is straightforward: as sitting President with demanding duties, he requested a mail ballot for the Florida special election to fulfill his civic responsibility without disrupting official schedule perfectly legal and traceable in Palm Beach County. His broader critique targets mass unsolicited mail-in systems lacking safeguards, not every absentee request. Nuance matters: secure, requested ballots differ from expansive no-excuse expansions vulnerable to abuse. Consistency in standards, not gotchas.

Trump: I used a mail in ballot. You know why? Because I'm President of the United States, I did a mail in ballot for Florida because I felt I should be here. Reporter: But you were in Palm Beach

@MilesTaylorUSA @independant1492 Different things. Whoever is doing this knows the difference between the SEC and CFTC. CFTC regulates futures markets and has way looser insider trading rules. Likely intentional this is happening where it is.

@danriversitv @mattlanza I don’t think options/futures are regulated by the SEC. CTFC has much looser rules insider trading. That’s part of the problem and likely whoever is doing this knows that.

No one bets $1.5 billion unless they are sure and have insider information. This isn’t the first time either. There should be an outcry in the USA about this. Also unnoticed by many, SEC Enforcement Division Director Margaret Ryan resigned last Monday after just over six months on the job, after clashing with her bosses over investigating Trump family trades.
Chris Murphy 🟧@ChrisMurphyCT

$1.5 BILLION. Let me say it again - a $1.5 BILLION BET. Bigger than any futures purchases made at the time. 5 minutes before Trump's post. Who was it? Trump? A family member? A White House staffer? This is corruption. Mind blowing corruption.

@dennisrumet @prestonstew_ He is not. Nato is a defensive pact and the US attacked Iran over a hypothetical threat and did not inform anyone. All while putting our allies at economic risk. I don’t blane NATO at all especially in the context of Trump being weak in supporting Ukraine (non nato, but europe.)

@prestonstew_ He is right. Never thought I'd say this, but it's time for the U.S. to rethink its alliance with NATO. I'm sure they'll do nothing if China attacks Taiwan too.

@pooterpoopoopie @LongTimeHistory ICE isn't giving lawful orders. Further, because they have little to no training, especially in law enforcement and the US constitution, they're instigating and ramping up conflicts.

@LongTimeHistory It’s a rather easy concept. Obey lawful orders from law enforcement and excess force isn’t necessary. You can thank liberal/Marxists for creating an environment and mentality that drives these incidents

ICE detain mother at airport—traveling with young daughter. First reported kidnapping at airport since Trump ordered ICE agents to report—refuse to show ID. "I don't know who you are!" witness yells. "You could be someone kidnapping her!" Agent continue to refuse to show ID until bystanders agree they should call police to report a kidnapping. Incident occurred at the San Francisco International Airport Gate E2 on March 22, 2026, at 10pm. #DemsUnited

@WATT499663 @Acyn While true, it's a dumb statistic being purposely used to be misleading. It's like saying the average person has less than two legs. Technically true, but completely irrelevant. Energy prices are way up, even in the US compared to three weeks ago.
