"I’m just happy that somebody finally is stepping up and trying to get this out-of-control spending situation under control. Thank goodness, because most of the time people are just too scared, politicians and others, to do the things that absolutely have to be done, and that…
Biden: 'We're Sending a Message' to Putin-from Oct 2016. Someone-maybe @DNIGabbard - should ask “what message” nbcnews.com/meet-the-press…
Just for context, this was the guy for which #NoKings was created. And the #USArmy250 was created out of necessity. This portrait is displayed in a government building- in Canada.
So very sad.
Our dear friend Grace-Marie Turner passed away this morning from brain cancer. A brilliant health care expert, she was kind, wise, and gifted at uniting people for reform. Her legacy of unselfish leadership will endure. Please keep her family and friends in your prayers.…
So thankful everyone is well. Congratulations.
We are incredibly blessed to welcome to the world our second child, Winston Joseph Gill! My wife Danielle and baby are happy and healthy!
Thank you for telling Chris’s story. He was my guest to the SOTU in Trump’s first term. His tragic case was met with astonishing indifference for over a decade.
#EXCLUSIVE: A veteran and single father who lost his wife to breast cancer says he made a promise he would always protect their daughter. In 2014, his 13-year-old, Chrishia Odette, was killed crossing the street by an illegal migrant who already had a warrant out for driving…
Tucker, my deepest condolences on your family’s loss. So disorienting to lose your Dad. He sounds like an exemplary role model. May he be in eternal rest. “May the peace of God, that knows no understanding, guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus”
Obituary for my father. Richard Warner Carlson died at 84 on March 24, 2025 at home in Boca Grande, Florida after six weeks of illness. He refused all painkillers to the end and left this world with dignity and clarity, holding the hands of his children with his dogs at his…
Having been there for previous fights, this was truly a great accomplishment Mr. Speaker. True unity to save the country. I am so proud to have served with you.
Thank you Mr. President. We are united in our mission to deliver the America first agenda.
In 1993 Clinton made tax increases retroactive to prior to his presidency. How great that @realDonaldTrump is proposing retroactive tax relief. One of the most significant moments in #SOTU2025. wsj.com/livecoverage/t…
I am so sorry to hear this. I served a few terms with Lincoln. He was a true leader and I always valued his counsel. Prayers for him and your family.
It is ironic with all the @doge related anxiety over access to beneficiary data, there was no hesitation in giving health, social security, PBM,and Treasury Dept data to a private company in 2013. latimes.com/nation/politic…

I led a letter to @USCBO requesting them to outline the effect of gene therapy treatment on the federal budget. Pleased to see this report from them as we continue to bring awareness to sickle cell disease research. cbo.gov/system/files/2…
Happy New Year’s Eve, #TX26. This year, I have worked hard to ensure Texans in the 26th congressional district are prioritized. During my final year in Congress, I delivered on the Republican commitment to America. See my end of the year report ⬇️ drive.google.com/file/d/1nDzBeu…
A man of faith, President Jimmy Carter lived a life of service. Service to his community, state, and country. Upon his death, President Carter certainly heard the words, ‘well done, good and faithful servant.’ My thoughts are with his beloved family and the Peach state.
