@patriottakes Widening and intensifying (“ramping up”) are two completely different words. Thanks for making his point.

Hegseth, just minutes apart

@TheDemocrats Last night, nearly every Democrat voted against America, its allies in the Middle East, and the oppressed people of Iran yearning for freedom from its barbaric and ruthless unelected regime.

Last night, nearly every Senate Republican voted against reining in Trump and his reckless war with Iran.

How on earth would your health insurance cost $8k/month. I live in NY, have a family of 7 , and chose an excellent high-deductible healthcare plan offered through my employe. The total cost is only ~$3,200/mo, of which my employer pays about $2,100. Even if I add in the full cost of my max out of pocket of $10,000 annually, it’s only $4,000/month. NFW yours would cost $8,000/month

My statement on the spending legislation and Republican healthcare crisis.

Thank you @SecKennedy ! The WHI’s 2002 misinterpretation terrified millions of menopausal women with faulty warnings that didn’t apply to most. For women <60 or <10 yrs post-menopause, HRT is safe & effective—relieves suffering & doesn’t cause harm. Today the fear ends and hope is restored!

For more than two decades, the American medical establishment turned its back on women. Millions of women were told to fear the very therapy that could have given them strength, peace, and dignity through one of life’s most difficult transitions—menopause. That ends today. The @US_FDA is initiating the removal of broad “black box” warnings from hormone replacement therapy products for menopause.

Yeah, it seems “over blown” — give me a break. With over 52,000 Christians killed since 2009 according to advocacy groups like International Christian Concern (ICC). In 2025 alone, reports indicate at least 7,000 Christian deaths—an average of about 35 per day—making Nigeria the deadliest place globally for Christians. 90%+ of Fulani attacks hit Christian villages, per ICC data. Verified reports from Open Doors and the Catholic Bishops’ Conference confirm disproportionate Christian victims.

Trump is threatening military action in Nigeria because he says its government has failed to protect Christians. Analysts & officials who've studied Nigeria for years say this growing fervor in the U.S. about Christian persecution in Nigeria is out of line with reality...

@AOC What a shitty thing to post.

Maybe if you channeled all this anger into swimming faster you wouldn’t have come in fifth.

@OccupyDemocrats Enough of this nonsense already. Charlie and other right-leaning people face the same threats. The left’s rhetoric seeks to inflame emotion, and villainize and dehumanize those that they can’t compete with on ideas.

BREAKING: Journalist and college professor Stacey Patton goes viral by penning a stunningly powerful statement about how she was on Charlie Kirk’s “digital hit list” and recounting the horror that he inflicted on her. We cannot allow this tragic assassination to whitewash Kirk’s legacy… “I am on Charlie Kirk’s hit list,” Patton wrote to her 215,000 followers on Facebook. “His so-called ‘Professor Watchlist,’ run under the umbrella of Turning Point USA, is nothing more than a digital hit list for academics who dare to speak truth to power. I landed there in 2024 after writing commentary that inflamed the MAGA faithful. And once my name went up, the harassment machine roared to life.” “For weeks my inbox and voicemail were deluged. Mostly white men spat venom through the phone: ‘bitch,’ ‘c*nt,’ ‘n****r.’ They threatened all manner of violence,” she continued. “They overwhelmed the university’s PR lines and the president’s office with calls demanding that I be fired,” Patton wrote. “The flood was so relentless that the head of campus security reached out to offer me an escort, because they feared one of these keyboard soldiers might step out of his basement and come do me harm.” “And I am not unique,” she added. “Kirk’s Watchlist has terrorized legions of professors across this country. Women, Black faculty, queer scholars, basically anyone who challenged white supremacy, gun culture, or Christian nationalism suddenly found themselves targets of coordinated abuse,” Patton wrote. “Some received death threats. Some had their jobs threatened. Some left academia entirely. Kirk sent the loud message to us: speak the truth and we will unleash the mob!” she continued. “That is the culture of violence Charlie Kirk built. He normalized violence. He curated it, monetized it, and sicced it on anyone who dared to puncture his movement’s lies,” she wrote. “And now, in the wake of his shooting, there’s all this national outpouring of mourning, moments of silence, yellow prayer hands, and tributes painting him as a civil debater,” Patton continued. “But the truth is that Kirk and his foot soldiers spent years terrorizing educators, trying to silence us with harassment and fear!” “And now the same violence he unleashed on others has come full circle.” “But what i find especially jarring is the dissonance in public mourning for a smug white man whose life work was actively hostile to certain groups,” she continued. “Kirk spent years demonizing LGBTQ people, mocking gun survivors, spewing racism about Black folks, and pushing policies that literally shorten lives.” “It is so revolting to watch a bipartisan wave of grief sweep over this hateful racist as if he was a neutral community servant,” she concluded. This is pure unvarnished truth from Patton. Charlie Kirk did not deserve what happened to him, but nor did his victims deserve the hell that he unleashed on them. If Americans are going to build a more peaceful future for ourselves we must condemn political violence while also condemning the hateful, bigoted rhetoric that made Kirk a multimillionaire. Please retweet and ❤️ if Patton’s message struck a chord with you!

@EndWokeness Factor in female, and it is more like 0.0085% of the world’s population.

0.017% of the world population has blue eyes & blonde hair. Doesn't the left like minorities in advertising?

@GovKathyHochul @GovKathyHochul it seems that you are condoning interfering with federal law enforcement officers engaging in legal arrest procedures? Are you hellbent on turning NYC into another chaotic LA crapshow of violent and destructive rioting? Very bad message for you to be sending….

This is bullshit.

@SenSchumer Yup, those “rich” people getting “richer” on tips and getting deductions for the interest they pay on car loans for their ultra luxury Chevy Silverado, Ford F-Series, Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV rides definitely don’t need this bill. lol 🤣

In the dead of night, House Republicans rammed their so-called 'Big Beautiful Bill' through the House. There is nothing beautiful about stealing from hungry kids, and stealing from low-income families, to give trillions in tax giveaways to the wealthy.

Since 1980, the manufacturing economy in New York State has experienced massive contraction, with employment declining by 55.3% from 1990 to 2019, and exacerbated by Democrat policies of high taxes and regulations. NY residents, especially in manufacturing-dependent areas, have been failed by Democrat leaders like YOU, who have not done enough to retain manufacturers. NY used to account for ~27% of the northeast manufacturing output in 1990. Today it’s only 23%. YOU have failed is ABSOLUTELY, as well as RELATIVELY.

@SenSchumer With 210 wide bodies ordered by Qatar Airways, Boeing and GE seem to be benefiting pretty nicely. Add to that the deals for Parsons, McDermott, Quantinium,and Raytheon and it seems we have benefited to the tune of ~$243.5bn. What have you and your cohorts done for NY? Nada!

Since Trump became president, nobody seems to have benefited more from Middle East deals than him: Golf courses by the beach Hotels in Dubai And now a $400M private jet from Qatar This is exactly why I issued a hold on all political DOJ nominees until we get answers.

@factpostnews @TheDemocrats The Constitution’s due process clauses (5th & 14th Amendments) ensure *fair procedures*, but don’t always *guarantee a hearing*. Fairness depends on the situation—sometimes notice and a chance to respond suffice.

Kristi Noem: Due process does not guarantee a hearing (It's in the Constitution to guarantee people access to fair hearings)

@cremieuxrecueil The rate of diagnosis in children under 8 is currently estimated as 1 in 31, or 322% more frequently then your 1%.

Most of the healthcare resources dedicated to finding people with autism are used the young. As a result, older people are relatively underdiagnosed. But if you go out of your way to look for autism in the whole population, you find similar rates in youth and adults:

@charliekirk11 What does that make the running total now; $3.13T?

BREAKING: The United Arab Emirates will invest $1.4 TRILLION in the United States after meeting with President Trump. The 10-year framework will target investments in AI infrastructure, semiconductors, energy, and American manufacturing. Another day, another massive investment in America. 🇺🇸

@EndWokeness The levels of schadenfreude on the left are eerily reflecting 1938 Nazi Germany—you might want to check yourself.

"Wow, you guys like domestic terror" The Daily Show's audience applauds the domestic terror incidents against Tesla, disturbing even the liberal host…

@Tim_Walz The levels of schadenfreude on the left are eerily reflecting 1938 Nazi Germany—you might want to check yourself.

If you need a little boost during the day, check out Tesla stock 📉

@BasedMikeLee @tedcruz The levels of schadenfreude on the left are approaching 1938 Nazi Germany levels.

@tedcruz He’s celebrating evil

Small, petty, vindictive, evil bastard. Represents today’s Democrats well.

@SenSchumer This is pathetic, Chuck. We now have Grok3 that can ‘deep search’ your accusation, and there is ZERO verifiable accounts of deserving recipients having their social security benefits “taken away” by DOGE.

The acting head of Social Security admits it: DOGE is calling the shots and taking away Social Security benefits. Firing Social Security staff and closing offices means people lose benefits. We'll keep fighting to protect Social Security. washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/…

@GovKathyHochul Pathetic! NY farm exports to China are insignificant, at best. However, Chinese retaliatory tariffs on American food products in general will create more supply for America, lowering costs for all Americans—NYers included—as we’ve seen play out before.

Trump’s tariffs are a tax on New Yorkers – and especially our hardworking farmers. I’m going to do everything in my power to fight them. Join me live in Albany: governor.ny.gov
