Retired as an analyst from the Florida Legislature, plays the Blues harp, loves to read, and I am a curious man. Also, I play the uke.


The US has canceled hundreds of millions in science grants and driven thousands of Ph.D.s out of the federal workforce. China, meanwhile, has poured evermore resources into its research efforts. If they pass us as a scientific superpower, we shouldn't act surprised. theatlantic.com/science/2026/0…



175 civilians – mostly little girls – at a school in Iran had nothing to do with this awful war. It looks like the U.S. was responsible for their deaths, and if so, this Admin must take accountability. I’m proud to lead 121 House Dems in demanding answers. nbcnews.com/politics/natio…


Thank you @POTUS Trump for appointing me as the Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas. @SecRubio and @SecWar are incredible leaders and I look forward to working with them closely to dismantle cartels that have poured drugs into our nation and killed our children and grandchildren. The Western Hemisphere is absolutely critical for U.S. security. In this new role, I will be able to build on the partnerships and national security expertise, I forged over the last 13 months as Secretary of Homeland Security. We have made historic accomplishments at the Department of Homeland Security to make America safe again: we delivered the MOST secure border in American history, 3 million illegal aliens have left the U.S., we have located 145,000 children, FEMA delivered disaster relief at a 100% faster rate, we ushered in the golden age of travel, saved the American taxpayer $13 billion and revitalized the U.S. Coast Guard.

Ladies and gentlemen… the FBI Director.

For the very concerned media - yes, I love America and was extremely humbled when my friends, the newly minted Gold Medal winners on Team USA, invited me into the locker room to celebrate this historic moment with the boys- Greatest country on earth and greatest sport on earth. 👊🏼🏒🇺🇸



"Our company was selling shelves for $200. Our competition was selling for $90 and we were getting killed. Thanks to your tariffs, now everybody's shelves are $200. Game changer for us, thank you Mr. President" isn't the flex Trump thinks it is. Also, I'll bet a shiny nickel that by the time you read this post, the SC will have ruled AGAINST the tariffs (little birdie). They'll probably chicken out on ruling on whether companies can get the money back that he illegally stole, however. Sorry to all of you who are now only going to have to pay $90 for shelves again. I know how much you liked paying $200 in the Golden Age.
