Apparently, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez's call to round up the "criminals" in Washington includes the conservative justices: "I mean, of course, this Supreme Court as well has also kind of legalized a lot of his criminality." The Democrats are fast becoming a party of berserkers...

Not only did Pete acknowledge his party’s lack of decorum, he medaled the sentry. This is how you do it! Leadership!
.@SecWar recognizes Spc. Iglesias for a job well done yesterday at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier 👏👏👏

Where else but America can a soldier yell at @SecWar at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and instead of getting punished, the Secretary pins a commendation medal on his chest?
I applaud Specialist Iglesias for doing the right thing. That took guts.
And the response took real humility from Pete Hegseth.
Legacy media outlets were all over him yesterday, trying to smear him as disrespectful. I wouldn’t be surprised if they ignore today’s update because it’s the exact opposite of how they want to portray Hegseth.
Good on you, Pete. Thank you for exemplifying what it means to be an American leader.

Saw a man I arrested years ago. Pulled up next to me today while I was driving off duty. He yells out the window “Is that you Joseph?” I looked to the right and recognized him immediately. I said “Yup”. Now here I am thinking this was going to go bad, so I got ready.
When I arrested him he made a few threats. But I also remember telling him I would pray that God would show him another path. I then put a note in his property bag with hopes when his anger subsided, he would read it when he was released. What I wrote on it came from the heart. I saw something in him that he didn’t at the time.
Before the light changed, he said “I remember that note Joseph. It was right on time. God bless you king!.” He drove off. As I made a right turn, I took my hand off my gun and smiled. A seed I planted years ago, had taken root.
It just another reminder that my work was not in vain , and that praying for your enemies, though unnatural, is not about you at times. It’s about God using you as an instrument to change others.

Eric Swalwell slept with a Chinese spy. Democrats didn't kick him out of Congress. They put him on the House Intelligence Committee.
Swalwell would most likely be Governor-elect of California right now had he not continually sexually preyed on interns.
STFU Schumer. You people are such hypocrites.
Despite Jensen Huang’s resignation, Congress must demand answers from Mr. Huang and others at Nvidia about how they may have put U.S. national security at risk.
The Trump administration must also answer for what it did once it learned about Mr. Huang’s relationship with a suspected Chinese intelligence asset. Were government officials told not to investigate because of Trump’s relationship with Mr. Huang? What did Trump know when he personally invited Mr. Huang aboard Air Force One?
Americans deserve to know that those at the highest levels of power are putting America first, not their bottom line or their personal friendships.

Hegseth gives medal to soldier who reprimanded him and his aides at Arlington National Cemetary justthenews.com/node/195137?…

A US Army Specialist admonished a group with the Secretary of War at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier for not maintaining appropriate silence and respect, and Hegseth, like a true leader, accepted the reprimand and then gave the soldier a medal for doing what was expected of him despite the potential for reprisal from the highest ranking official in the Pentagon.
This is what honorable leadership looks like.
I’ve seen multiple Democrats hypothesize that Hegseth would use his position to punish the young soldier, and they could not have been more wrong.
Scoundrels always try to tear down men of honor because they know they can never measure up.
I can’t tell you how proud this makes me as a veteran.
God Bless Secretary Hegseth.
DOL, Sir! 🫡🇺🇸

Rep Tim Burchett says he’s willing to lose his job to tell us the REAL REASON government officials are opposing Elon Musk and DOGE
“They’re gonna push back because you’ve got Congressmen on both sides of the aisle. If they follow that paper trail, it's going to come back to them. You've got their wife and or girlfriend that works for some agency, quasi-agency or some business. This towns as crooked as a dogs leg”
“I’ll get primaried for saying that but that’s the truth and we all know it”
“Somebody’s gonna straight it out, it looks like it’s gonna be Elon Musk”

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez just promised "many, many investigations" to round up the huge number of "criminals" that Democrats see in their political opponents. None of this bodes well for the Republic as we restart the type of J6 show trials that marked the prior Democratic House.

Aww yes, you worked a total of what 5 years at most as an adult, much of that time killing dogs, but your contributions to this country are indeed something to celebrate

I’m an older dude. We’ve NEVER had a better leader in the Pentagon. Ever.
We must protect him at all costs! Our troops deserve it!
💪🇺🇸🔥
.@SECWAR “I’ll let the President speak for himself, and I’m grateful for his support.
We’ve never had a better Commander in Chief—full stop... He lives and breathes America First, and it’s the honor of a lifetime to be his Secretary of War...
@StephenM is an incredible American patriot and a GREAT FRIEND OF THIS DEPARTMENT.”

Superb salvo back from White House Counsel Will Scharf. The lesson learned from Bill Clinton’s ear is to battle everything from day one. Scharf has set up potential rejections of Congressional subpoenas with this letter.
Letter from WH counsel Will Scharf to incoming House Oversight chair Robert Garcia on future Democratic investigations:
"Beyond being inconsistent with the clear, well-recognized constitutional limitations on your
investigative functions, threats to executive branch officials designed to deter them from public
service, or process designed merely to abuse or instill fear in the recipient may cross the line into
blatant criminality. And issuing unlawful subpoenas with the intention of depriving citizens of their
constitutional rights and privileges may warrant further investigation."
