Trump could reinstate the lax Obama-Trump abortion pill rules if he wanted to. His administration has so far chosen to keep the even more liberal Biden abortion pill rules in place.
The FDA's abortion pill approval shatter's Trump's and Vance's pro-life facade 🧵 https://t.co/YCLRKb6IQG

We have biiig problems with the school boards in Fairfax County. This used to be the top public school system in the nation.

Utah GOP governor Spencer Cox: “There should be a divide between … daily law enforcement versus military. That’s an important distinction that we’ve made in our country for a long, long time.”
Kevin Stitt, the GOP gov of Oklahoma and the chair of the National Govs Association, on Texas sending its National Guard to Illinois: “Oklahomans would lose their mind if Pritzker in Illinois sent troops down to Oklahoma during the Biden administration.” https://t.co/bPld6QkisU

@marcorubio And yes, even if the boats were carrying drugs and were heading (after many stops) toward the U.S., there is a strong argument there is no good legal or moral justification for what amount to summary executions. But wouldn’t it be nice to know, before having that ethical and

If the “intelligence, without a doubt, confirmed that this vessel was trafficking narcotics,” why can’t you show that intelligence to Congress?
Earlier this morning, on President Trump's orders, I directed a lethal, kinetic strike on a narco-trafficking vessel affiliated with Designated Terrorist Organizations in the USSOUTHCOM area of responsibility. Four male narco-terrorists aboard the vessel were killed in the

You'll notice that almost all of Tucker’s (((villains))) have something in common. Dan Crenshaw is just a puppet of Cliff Asness. Trump bombed Iran because of Mark Levin. Who’s pulling strings on the imaginary Epstein Mossad cover up? Bill Ackman -- who's only successful because
Tucker Carlson who doesn’t know me from Adam says offhand that I’m “one of the sleazier people in American business.” Zero facts because there are none and never will be any. I’m boringly clean professionally and personally. Sorry Tucker. He does this likely, because he doesn’t

Important context about this potential threat is that the annual Catholic Red Mass at St Matthew Cathedral is held before the start of the Supreme Court term and is always attended by senior members of the administration and judiciary.
A man who had vials of liquid and possible fireworks was arrested outside of the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle Sunday morning before Red Mass started, police say. https://t.co/RJQXggTqib
