I think it is time we start our own party. The Republicans are just as rotten as the Democrats. Actually worse since they work in darkness while the Democrats let their evil shine. Maga will be the base but we need a new name. Start fresh all the way around.
He spoke pure truth and made me ready to campaign for him immediately. I was not a fan until tonight. Keep it up @GovRonDeSantis
🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Gov. Ron DeSantis just BLEW UP and went on an America first RAMPAGE on national TV
"I saw NO INDICATION that Republican senators were interested in doing conservative change! WHY haven't we done immigration, SHUT OFF H1B visas?! WHY haven't we CODIFIED Trump's immigration executive orders?! Why haven't we STRIPPED jurisdiction from the federal courts over deportation cases?! There's SO MANY THINGS we COULD HAVE DONE."
"THEY DIDN'T EVEN ATTEMPT IT."
"They say, 'oh, if only we needed 50 votes we would've done it!' YOU DON'T HAVE 50 VOTES. You NEVER SHOWED you'd do conservative things, even with 50 votes! [RE: filibuster]...I NEVER saw an indication that they'd do it."
"This midterm was a rebuke of the president and Congress...BUT, a LOT of our voters stayed home because they were FRUSTRATED with the LACK of productivity from Republicans in the House and Senate."
A fire was just lit under this man.
Honestly have not seen him get that fired up in a LONG time
We definitely deserved better from our Senate. Now, we need to repair and win in 2028, or Democrats are destroying America!
Been full! Already been changed. Too much traffic, no one can afford a home. Voting was too close last night. We're the next Texas if we don't hold the line.
I'm sad we have let our forefathers down. We will find out just how much here in a few hours. Complete insanity on the ballots these days.
I don't think I have ever been proud of a Democrat before but you did the right thing. Just wish you would have done it sooner but better late than never and I hope it gives others the courage to do the same. The survival of our country is at stake.

Do you know who to vote for in the midterms? Let me give you some help, but you decide. The Democratic Party wants open borders, while the Republican Party wants secure borders. The Democratic Party wants noncitizens to be able to vote; the Republican Party supports requiring voter ID. The Democratic Party wants to give taxpayer-funded benefits like healthcare to noncitizens; the Republican Party says No to that. And there are a hundred more issues. The choice is yours—but look prayerfully at what both parties stand for.
You finally did a good interview Sean. You were quiet and just let her sink herself. I think you were on a mission. She has got to go. What a horrible pick she was.
Press Secretary Katie Zacharia reveals she had less than 24 hours to prepare for her first White House press briefing, saying she stepped up to highlight President Trump’s accomplishments for the American people:
“I was given the offer last Wednesday, or I got a phone call last Wednesday. I flew out to D.C. on Thursday. I had a meeting on Friday, was offered the job, flew home to California on Saturday, flew back to Washington on Sunday, and was asked to start on Monday, Sean, which was Columbus Day, so it was a federal holiday. And I was asked to have a press briefing at 9:30 in the morning on Tuesday. So what I feel is that I really stepped up to the plate to do the press conference, Sean, with very little prep time. I received briefing materials on Tuesday morning, and I went to deliver all of the great results that President Trump is delivering for the American people that are not often spread in the national media. So I took it as an opportunity for people to know what he’s doing for Americans and how hard he’s working.”
My first year overseas I got to call home once. Once. Military life is hard people, not easy. Thank goodness our forefathers were tough. I worry about the future of the U.S.

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Marine Joey Jones, who deployed to Afghanistan and lost his legs there, just ERUPTED after the fake news amplified complaints about "food" and "conditions" on the Abraham Lincoln
"To SIT THERE and say that it was terrible because you had a 'corn dog and a hot dog,' I would have traded a BLOCK OF C4 to the TALIBAN for a hot dog about July 2010!"
"To that little kid and whoever raised him, Lord HELP YOU if you ever go into a hot war on the ground like MILLIONS of Americans! That I can only THINK what a World War II veteran sitting there who's lucid enough today to see that and think about the six-month journey home from fighting the toughest war we've EVER fought after being there for four years was thinking, listening to him COMPLAIN like that."
"You know what I ate in Afghanistan for 6 months on a burner with using a little burner? I ate ramen noodles. I had to pull the seasoning packet out because that's too much sodium in it and I put tuna packets in it. That's what I ate!"
"How WEAK are you on TV complaining about tuna and noodles? I'm sorry! YOU volunteered to serve your country."
"You can come back and get out of the military and do what all of these Democrat veterans and COMPLAIN about it and make commercials and be a SELLOUT if you want to and come up with a new way of doing things!"
"The last Democrat president that I remember that was deploying troops, Barack Obama had me going to Iraq on patrol bases for 15 months at a time, eating MREs!"
"I'm sorry, but you're a sitting DUCK on a patrol base in Iraq, in Afghanistan, a heck of a lot more than you are on a fortified Navy ship sitting in the water!"
"it makes me fume. If he sat there and said we didn't have any clean water to drink, we couldn't take a shower. I mean, well, I didn't get to take a shower for about six months, but still, you know, something that has something to do with hygiene?!"
"You know, like getting sick, there was a scurvy outbreak and, the guys that were missing legs were only giving wooden pegs instead of metal ones? Then maybe I might have some sympathy!"
The fake news is COMPLICIT!

Friendly reminder: Robert Gilman, a former U.S. Marine, spent FOUR YEARS in a Russian prison while Biden traded the “Merchant of Death” for Brittney Griner.
President Trump brought Gilman HOME, and didn’t trade a damn soul to do it.
That’s America First.
This is some top level care ole Mitch is getting. He looks 20 years younger and apparently only has one shirt. They think we're idiots and we are because they are getting away with it.
We all knew rain was coming so why didn't they start this race earlier than 7pm? They are cheating us. @NASCAR @NASCARNation @TeamHendrick @DaleJr
AI and BS here. He hasn't looked this alive in at least five years. They really do think we are totally stupid and maybe we are because they get away with it.
Statement From Senator Mitch McConnell
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) released the following note to constituents regarding his hospitalization and recovery:
“To my fellow Kentuckians –
“When you elected me to a seventh term and made me our Commonwealth’s longest serving Senator, you did so trusting that I’d keep showing up to fight for you every day. And over the past several weeks, Elaine and I have appreciated both your well wishes and your honest questions about what was keeping me away from the Senate.
“You all know how folks of my generation often hesitate to share the vulnerability that comes with growing older. Even in the public eye, I feel that same instinct – I can’t help it.
“But at the same time, I’ve had more than my share of experience with physical vulnerabilities. Surviving childhood polio meant spending my entire life with mobility challenges. They haven’t exactly gotten easier to manage with age. And last month, I took a fall which landed me in the hospital.
“My doctors have confirmed that I didn’t break any bones or suffer a concussion. I didn’t have a heart attack or a stroke. I don’t have any tumors or hemorrhages. But I was briefly unconscious and was taken to the hospital. While receiving excellent care over the past several weeks, I’ve also had to deal with a mild case of pneumonia.
“I can assure you that I’ve been a good patient. At my age, I tend to do what my doctors tell me to do. I’ve submitted to every test they can think of to help figure out what caused this incident. And I’m continuing to do everything they ask to speed my recovery. In fact, with signs of continued progress, I’ve been able to move from hospital care to a rehabilitation center where I’ll keep regaining my strength.
“As much as it frustrates me, this process takes time. And on the advice of my doctors, I won’t be able to return to the Senate floor to vote quite yet. But rest assured that, in the meantime, I’m not taking a break from the Senate business that matters to you. I’ve been working closely with my legislative staff on current issues, and with my Kentucky team who help me provide timely constituent services across our Commonwealth. I’ve also been keeping in touch with my Senate colleagues on the appropriations process, midterm politics, and everything in between.
“You’re right to expect your representatives to work hard for you. And part of my decision to retire at the end of my term this coming January was being honest about the demands of Senate work. But I still have unfinished business to complete on your behalf, and I have every intention of finishing the job you elected me to do.
“I’ll keep working hard to get back on the Senate floor as soon as possible. And I’ll keep you posted on the progress of my recovery. Until then, I’m so grateful for your prayers and well wishes.”

From the Office of the Attending Physician:
“Senator McConnell has experienced several falls throughout the year that have been attributed to his post-polio condition. He was admitted to the hospital four weeks ago after falling at home and sustaining minor injuries.
“A comprehensive evaluation by a multidisciplinary team determined that he had no fractures, cardiac abnormalities, stroke, tumor, or hemorrhage. Early in his hospitalization, he developed pneumonia, which responded rapidly to antibiotic treatment.
“The remainder of his hospital stay focused on physical therapy and strategies to reduce his risk of future falls. He has been medically cleared to continue fully participating in his intensive physical therapy program.”
