Thank you, Mr. President! We are so honored & grateful for the love you have shown Valentina. 90% of babies w/Down Syndrome are aborted. You told America’s children: “God made you perfectly”. Thank you for recognizing the humanity of these beautiful children & defending LIFE.

Well, darlings… The curtain falls, the spotlight dims, and the rhinestones are packed. From the halls of Congress to the chaos of cable news what a ride it’s been! Was it messy? Always. Glamorous? Occasionally. Honest? I tried… most days. To my supporters: You made this wild

Nearly 9pm on a Tuesday, after returning from a day trip to the Middle East at nearly 3am this morning, long after the press and staff are gone, President Trump is still in the Oval Office tonight working.

This sentence was substantively unreasonable. An assassination plot against a Supreme Court Justice strikes at the heart of our Republic. As @AGPamBondi stated, we will appeal to correct this miscarriage of justice and defend the rule of law.
The attempted assassination of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh was a disgusting attack against our entire judicial system by a profoundly disturbed individual. @TheJusticeDept will be appealing the woefully insufficient sentence imposed by the district court, which does not

I like Bistro Cacao and don't mean to insult them, but @Jack_Blanchard_ calling their $45 filet swanky fine dining is basically a confession to never having been there! As I've said before, Playbook has become unreadable. Slanted and long winded.
How much might the shutdown impact the midterms next year? The answer from most strategists so far seems to be … not at all. Both sides know the economy and cost of living will still be the biggest game in town in 2026. More in Playbook:

For those who don't remember (I do because I was there), Chuck Schumer shut the government down for 3 days after DACA and then caved in exchange for ... further negotiations and then a vote that, as far as I recall, never happened. Schumer floor speech:

As represented in this analysis, many journalists continue to memoryhole the Democrat shutdown in January 2018 over DACA. No mention or comparison to today's situation, despite its obviously greater relevance!

Proud to join my great friend Judge Emil Bove at his swearing-in ceremony for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Judge Bove has defended America’s values as an AUSA, in private practice, and as PADAG at DOJ. Now he’ll serve our nation with the same honor on the

If we are playing Bowie in the Rose Garden, I would humbly suggest that Golden Years would be the most appropriate.

.@VP: "If you are a politician or you're a media commentator and two beautiful babies just got murdered while praying, and your politics force you to condemn prayer in response to it, you ought to get new politics because something very wrong has gone on inside your soul."

It is shocking to me that so many left wing politicians attack the idea of prayer in response to a tragedy. Literally no one thinks prayer is a substitute for action. We pray because our hearts are broken and we believe that God is listening.
