    Since January 2025, personal spending grew at 1.6x the rate of personal income growth (7.4% vs. just 4.5%). Families are depleting their savings in order to make up the growing gap between spending and income. The personal savings rate plunged by more than half, to just 2.6%.

    Almost refreshing to see a petty tyrant speak so candidly about the desire to restrict speech.

    Sen. @RandPaul on the #OmnibusBill: "Republicans are emasculated and have no power...This is a nightmare way to run the government. I won't participate in it. And I will tell them that it's a rotten, no good way to run a country." He's 100% correct.

    The conservative movement stands with Israel. We have no common cause with antisemites. @AmericanFreedom

    Trump’s Liberation Day speech is filled with misinformation. The USA has higher tariff & non-tariff trade barriers than 68 other nations according to @Heritage.

    “The @Heritage Foundation is facing a staff rebellion over its president, @KevinRobertsTX, expressing support of @TuckerCarlson following his softball interview with neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes.”

    What's "disturbing" is that somehow Rumeysa Ozturk remained in the USA so long. @canarymission compiled a dossier with more than sufficient evidence to remove her permanently from the USA. Deport her now.canarymission.org/individual/Rum…

    It’s a shame that @TPUSA continues to provide a platform and credibility for the anti-Israel rhetoric of @TuckerCarlson and @ComicDaveSmith. Kudos to @josh_hammer for deftly countering the sickening propaganda.

    A 30% tariff on Chinese goods is far less destructive than 145%. But this is still an unconstitutionally imposed, $2 trillion+ tax hike over ten years that may add more than $2,500 annually to the cost of living for typical American families.

    31 U.S. Code 5112(n)(2)(E): “No coin issued [to honor a President of the United States] may bear the image of a living former or current President.” 31 U.S. Code 5112(y)(1)(C) clearly limits minting of U.S. dollar coins celebrating the nation’s 250th birthday to those

    Multiple sources: Backlash so strong against @KevinRobertsTX’ continued alliance with @TuckerCarlson that @Heritage was forced to cancel their planned signing event at @FedSoc of their new Constitution handbook after esteemed conservative judges decided to boycott the signing.
