Well said @SteveDeaceShow While the wanting world and the talking heads choose to focus on clicks, it’s best for all to focus on transparency and timeless Truth.

This last election proved X is indeed real life. We don't win the last election without @elonmusk and his purchase of this space. He is the Gutenberg to Trump's Luther of our time. However, too much of what takes place here we have now learned is not real. Thanks to Elon's

Agree. This is ⁦@tedcruz⁩ finest hour. His voice and courageous leadership serve as a clarion call for the foundation of the Christian Faith as well as America’s strategic ally in a very hostile region. This is a time for choosing…#ChooseWell

Listened to @mtgreenee tonight on #CNN with @kaitlancollins She articulated clearly the feelings of Americans I’m talking to in my travels. Why isn’t Congress working? Why is Congress being paid in “their” shutdown? Why is the antiquated filibuster still a thing? #Why

Time to recognize the times in which we live. We have two very different visions for America. One is freedom and prosperity. The other is Big Government, control and Socialism. Thus, time to end the filibuster, end the shutdown and let… @realDonaldTrump lead!

Last night’s election serves as a wake-up call. The #GOP can not win with politics as usual, especially without @realDonaldTrump on the ballot. This is a worldview battle where only bold and courageous candidates will succeed. #BoldColors #NoPalePastels

While I’m not surprised that @SteveDeaceShow endorsed in the crucial Iowa Governor race… I am surprised that he has gone “all in” on @adamsteen this early. Steve provides real traction for Adam in his first run. Congrats to Adam for securing! #ChooseWell #midterms2026

Yes sir. The killing of innocent Christians in Nigeria — and anywhere — must end immediately. The Department of War is preparing for action. Either the Nigerian Government protects Christians, or we will kill the Islamic Terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities.

This is how we lose America first. @TuckerCarlson who is rightfully credited with his advocacy for @JDVance to be @VP has given platform, legitimacy and exposure to…this. #KeepAmericaFirst #StandWithIsrael #ChooseWell2026 #ChooseWell2028

Good grief! Would some adult step in and take control? Embarrassing for the vibrant city of Des Moines and the great state of Iowa. Negligent for the children.

As I travel and talk to be people around the country, this has become a national embarrassment for Iowa. Really believe the Governor and Legislature should take over the Des Moines Public School District ASAP. Clean it up. Bring back integrity.

The district has sued the search firm that vetted Roberts. But School Board members won't say what they knew about false degree claim before the hire.

Two years ago while in the Atlanta airport, I was alerted to the horrific massacre carried out against Israel and her people. This is a battle of Good versus Evil. May we never forget as we pledge to uproot and rid every fiber of this evil as we pray for the #PeaceofJerusalem

Evil is no longer hiding. It once whispered in the shadows—now it boasts in the streets. The forces of darkness have taken off the sheep’s clothing and walk in full display. But those who belong to Christ must not panic. We were born for this battle #WinningTheInvisibleWar
