@MAGAMAHACindy Oil is a worldwide market. There is no oil just for America. That is a myth. The oil companies export our oil. Our refineries actually need the heavier crude from Venezuela, Canada and the Middle East. We export a huge amount of natural gas gas.

I voted for President Trump three times, and I’d gladly do so again. That said, I have a sincere, question about something I’m genuinely trying to understand. If the U.S. is energy independent, why are gas prices spiking again? They are getting close to the highs we saw under Biden? I know tensions with Iran are playing a role right now, but I thought energy independence was supposed to shield us from these kinds of swings. Can someone explain what’s driving this? I’m not here to criticize Trump, just looking for a clear explanation. Thanks.

@MAGAMAHACindy @kevinscotthall I have an electric car. I don’t know about gas prices. Have they changed in the last year?

@kevinscotthall You actually want “green energy”? It’s mostly a bunch of baloney money laundering scheme.

@RepLaLota Go read the Presidential Easter and Christmas messages. Then talk about civility.

Political satire has a long and important place in American democracy — Presidents have been roasted by late-night hosts since the days of Carson, and a healthy republic can take a joke. So can the President. So can the First Lady. But there is a clear and undeniable line between political satire and rhetoric that suggests or alludes to deadly harm against a sitting President. Even after multiple attempts on President Trump's life, Jimmy Kimmel chose to cross it.  Telling the country the First Lady has "the glow of an expectant widow" isn't comedy. After Steve Scalise was shot on a baseball field, after Gabby Giffords was nearly killed meeting her constituents, after gunfire forced the evacuation of the WHCD just days ago — we should all know better. This isn't a Republican issue or a Democrat issue. It's an American issue. If we only call out dangerous rhetoric when it's aimed at our side, we're feeding the very climate that puts every public servant and their family at risk. We can disagree without wishing each other dead. That used to be the floor in this country.  It's time we got back to it.

@SidneyPowell1 @sandraPRcolon It’s almost like one side, demonizes, mail and voting, and the other side encourages it.

The VA election should not be allowed to stand‼️

@Partisan_12 Yes. You enjoyed that. You do know the Nazis were in control, right? Is that what you really liked?

A frame from the Indiana Jones film that hit the screens in 1981. Palestine is on the map, Israel is not, It never was, and it never will be!

@nicklalota This has not aged well. Congressman Lalota made the mistake of taking Trump literally.

Peace through strength works. Thanks to the bravery and sacrifice of our troops, a strategic blockade, and sustained resolve, President Trump helped reopen the Strait of Hormuz and move closer to stopping Iran from getting a nuclear weapon and keeping Americans safe. 🇺🇸💪🫡

@sentdefender Farmers we’ve increased your costs. We’ve destroyed your markets through tariffs. We raised fuel prices. But dont worry. We’ve got your backs.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump highlighted the effect that the conflict in the Middle East has on fertilizer prices, as significant portion of the world’s fertilizer supply passes through the Strait of Hormuz.

@redeemmerica @sweatystartup @shawngorham If it was fake , the Russians would’ve gotten there first.

@sweatystartup @shawngorham If it was faked, the Russians would be the first to point that out. This is idiotic

Wait... did we really land on the moon? My siblings were going down a conspiracy theory rabbit hole at brunch... must say they were making compelling arguments we never landed on the moon. So... did we really land on the moon?

@nicklalota Was it Lee Zeldin who voted to remove it?

Hey Long Island, get a little SALTY when filing your 2025 federal taxes. Thanks to the SALT cap raise I fought for, middle class families can finally keep more of their hard earned money, between $2K and $7K for many filers.

@EthanCole00 @sentdefender Spoken like the Stalinist you must be. Purges are done by dictators. Too bad you hate the U.S. Constitution. Feel bad for you.

personnel is policy. installing a j6 agent to "fully expose" the doj from within was the plan, but bureaucratic friction always wins in the short term. wise resigning doesn't mean the purge is over, it just means the battle is moving to a different front. institutional decay is real.

Jared Wise, a Former FBI Agent who was prosecuted for his role in the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol in 2021, with him filmed telling other rioters to kill police officers protecting the Capitol, and who was later pardoned and given a position in the Trump Administration’s Justice Department, today announced his resignation as counselor to Pardon Attorney Ed Martin at the U.S. Department of Justice.

@BoCarter_US @sentdefender But their kids can. Immigration has always been about the next generation.

@sentdefender Trump is 100% right! You can't just walk in and get citizenship....

President Donald J. Trump’s executive order on the denial of birthright citizenship to the children of people here illegally or on work visas, and whether or not it’s consistent with the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment is the question before the court today.

@BPL3524 @sentdefender This comment right here is why the Trump admin will lose. It’s a slippery slope. First children of illegal immigrants. Then you say children of Legal immigrants/Greencard holders. Next anyone holding a dual passport. The exceptions will keep going.

@sentdefender If the parents can’t legally sit on a jury, they don’t meet the definition for citizenship.

Robert Mueller died last night. He was 81 years old. He had a wife who loved him for sixty years. He had two daughters, one of whom he met for the first time in Hawaii, in 1969, on a few hours of military leave, before he got back on the plane and returned to Vietnam. He had grandchildren. He had a faith he practiced quietly, without performance. He had, in the way of men who have seen real things and survived them, a quality that is increasingly rare and increasingly mocked in the country he spent his life serving. He had integrity. And tonight the President of the United States said good! I have been sitting with that word for hours now. Good. One syllable. The thing you say when the coffee is hot or the traffic is moving. The thing a man who has never had to bury anyone, never had to sit in the specific silence of a room where someone is newly absent, reaches for when he wants the world to know he is satisfied. Good. The daughters are crying and the wife is alone in the house and good. I want to speak directly to the Americans reading this. Not the political Americans. Just the human ones. The ones who have lost a father. The ones who know what it is to be in that first hour, when you keep forgetting and then remembering again, when ordinary objects become unbearable, when the world outside the window seems obscene in its indifference. I want to ask you, simply, to hold that feeling for a moment, and then to understand that the man you elected looked at it and typed a single word. Good. This is not a country having a bad day. I need you to understand that. Countries have bad days. Elections go wrong. Leaders disappoint. Institutions bend. But there is a different thing, a rarer and more terrible thing, that happens when the moral center of a place simply gives way. Not dramatically. Not with a single catastrophic event. But quietly, in increments, until one evening a president celebrates the death of an old man whose family is still warm with grief, and enough people find it acceptable that it becomes the weather. Just the weather. That is what is happening. That is what has happened. The world knows. From Tokyo to Oslo, from London to Buenos Aires, people are not angry at America tonight. Anger would mean there was still something to fight for, some remaining faith to be betrayed. What I see, in the reactions from everywhere that is not here, is something older and sadder than anger. It is the look people get when they have waited a long time for someone they love to find their way back, and have finally understood that they are not coming. America is being grieved. Past tense, almost. The idea of it. The thing it represented to people who had nothing else to believe in, who came here with everything they owned in a single bag because they had heard, somehow, across an ocean, that this was the place where decency was written into the walls. That idea is not resting. It is not suspended. It is being buried, in real time, with 7,450 likes before dinner. And the church said nothing. Seventy million people have decided that this man, this specific man who has cheated everyone he has ever made a promise to, who has mocked the disabled and the dead and the grieving, who celebrated tonight while a family wept, is an instrument of God. The pastors who made that bargain did not just trade away their credibility. They traded away the thing that made them worth listening to in the first place. The cross they carry now is a costume. The faith they preach is a loyalty oath with scripture attached. When the history of American Christianity is written, this will be the chapter they skip at seminary. Now I want to talk about the men who stand next to him. Because this is the part that actually breaks my heart. JD Vance is not a bad man. I have to say that, because it is true, and because the truth matters even now, especially now. Marco Rubio is not a bad man. Lindsey Graham is not a bad man. They are idiots, but not bad, as in BAD! These are men with mothers who raised them and children who love them and friends who remember who they were before all of this. They are not monsters. Monsters are simple. Monsters do not cost you anything emotionally because there is nothing in them to mourn. These men are something more painful than monsters. They are men who knew better, and know better still, and will get up tomorrow and do it again. Every small compromise they made had a reason. Every moment they looked the other way had a justification that sounded, at the time, almost reasonable. And now they have arrived here, at a place where a president celebrates the death of an old man and they will find a way, on television, to say nothing that means anything, and they will go home to houses where children who carry their name are waiting, and they will say goodnight, and they will say nothing. Their oldest friends are watching. The ones who knew Rubio when he still believed in something. Who knew Graham when he said, out loud, on the record, that this exact man would destroy the Republican Party and deserve it. Who sat next to Vance and thought here is someone worth knowing. Those friends are not angry tonight. They moved through anger a long time ago. What they feel now is the quiet, irrecoverable sadness of watching someone disappear while still being present. Of watching a person they loved choose, again and again, to become less. That is what cowardice costs. Not the coward. The people who loved him. And in the comments tonight, the followers celebrate. People who ten years ago brought casseroles to grieving neighbours. Who stood in the rain at gravesides and meant the words they said. Who told their children that we do not speak ill of the dead because the dead were someone's beloved. Those people are tonight typing gleeful things about a man whose daughters are not yet done crying. And they feel clean doing it. Righteous. Because somewhere along the way the thing they were given in exchange for their decency was the feeling of belonging to something, and that feeling is very hard to give up even when you can no longer remember what you gave for it. When Trump is gone, they will still be here. Standing in the silence where the noise used to be. Without the permission the crowd gave them. Without the pastor who told them their cruelty was holy. They will be alone with what they said and what they cheered and what they chose to become, and there will be no one left to tell them it was righteous. That morning is coming. Robert Mueller flew across the Pacific on military leave to hold his newborn daughter for a few hours before returning to the war. He came home. He buried his dead with honour. He served presidents of both parties because he understood that the institution was larger than any one man. He told his grandchildren that a lie is the worst thing a person can do, that a reputation once lost cannot be recovered, and he lived that, every day, in the quiet and unglamorous way of people who actually believe what they say. He was the kind of American the world used to point to when it needed to believe the story was true. He died last night. His wife is alone in their house in Georgetown. His daughters are learning what the world is without him in it. And somewhere in the particular hush that falls over a family in the first hours of loss, the most powerful man and the biggest loser on earth sent a message to say he was glad. The world that loved what America was supposed to be is grieving tonight. Not for Robert Mueller only. For the country that produced him and then became this. For the distance between what was promised and what was delivered. For the suspicion, growing quieter and more certain with each passing month, that the America people believed in was always partly a story, and the story is over now, and there is nothing yet to replace it. That is all it needed to be. A man died. His family is broken open with grief. That is all it needed to be. Instead the President said good. And the country that once stood for something looked away 🇺🇸 Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

@WallStreetApes @sandraPRcolon Trump lost the GDP vote.

Kamala Harris won every single state that didn’t require Voter ID Any normal rational person would look at this map and results and know fraud is happening So why won’t Senate Leader John Thune enforce a talking filibuster and pass the Save America Act to mandate Voter ID?

@TheCameronTeich @sweatystartup Yeah because nobody has ever been wrongfully convicted.

@sweatystartup Nope. We need way more executions in this country. Gen Z men are radical restorationists and will usher in the return to swift justice. Definitely would short the prison business.

The next business I go after: Prison business. I think the demand for prison rooms will skyrocket when they finally start arresting criminals for doing crimes. And I think people are getting tired of it and the pendulum is about to swing hard the other way.

@HodlFlorida @aubreystrobel I’ve been yelling about this for years.

@aubreystrobel Aubrey, you own a media company. Why are you stealing tweets?

why are we giving seniors discounts? they have all the money.

@aubreystrobel Yes. This. They also get property tax reductions in most states. They created the problems and high costs. They are the wealthiest group. Their healthcare is essentially subsidized. And they get special discounts.

@mehdirhasan @JoJoFromJerz Israel has never threatened to destroy another country with a nuclear weapon. Israel went into Lebanon only after Hezbollah fired missiles. Israel has not attacked a country that signed a peace treaty.

Israel is bombarding, literally bombarding, two Middle East capitals, Beirut and Tehran, killing 100s of civilians, and yet the US and UK media continue to portray Iran as the threat to the region. Israel has nukes, but Iran is the nuclear threat. We live in Orwellian times.

@aubreystrobel Worried about China declaring Taiwan a rogue terrorists ,territory and going in. We have no aircraft carriers nearby.

so I guess it turns out you can just bodybag dictators. you can just kill your enemies if they express genocidal nuclear intentions. you actually don’t have to send them pallets of cash and hope they behave. you can just delete them.

@DavidD_Chapman @sandraPRcolon There were votes. Especially Iraq. Remember Kerry voting for it before he voted against it.

Do you know the last time Congress formally declared War? June 1942. Wars since 1942 Korea Vietnam Gulf War Iraq Afghanistan Syria ISIS War on Terror The US President can absolutely carry out military action without congressional approval. Stop pretending otherwise.
