    I went to sign up for @ClaremontInst's event on Woke Capital feat. @JDVance1, @RepJimBanks, @christopherrufo, and @ToryAnarchist, and the landing page was blocked for "Hate and Racism," by our cybersecurity company. This is baseless! @Webroot, please #unblockClaremont

    My favorite @TuckerCarlson and @amconmag memory. A thread: I'll never forget the week in Jan. 2020 when America was on the brink of war with Iran, and Tucker singlehandedly made the case for peace and restraint night after night and convinced Trump to change course.

    Thanks to @calebecarma for profiling @amconmag in @VanityFair! “If you can call it the Tucker Carlson wing of the GOP, I think that’s the future, and the Paul Ryan wing of the GOP is the past.”

    Watch me on @TuckerCarlson defending a new conservative agenda that puts American families first! "With 15 months left in @realDonaldTrump's first term, it's time to put paid family leave front and center on the agenda for the @GOP." @amconmag @GOPChairwoman @IvankaTrump

    Check out the second half of my interview last night with @TuckerCarlson. If we want a more just and equitable society, we cannot cancel America. Instead, we must learn from our best traditions.

    I'm also grateful for the fact that Tucker thought outside the box and allowed me and so many other young writers to come on his show and talk family policy, economic patriotism, conservation, new urbanism, and much more.

    1) Nearly every major think tank in DC, “right” or “left,” is by default in favor of military or humanitarian interventionism. For those who believe in checks and balances, doesn’t it make sense to have at least one think tank in Washington urge caution at the prospect of war?
