This is one of the reasons why border security is national security, is if you let a bunch of crazy people into your country, those crazy people can eventually take action.

Hello Bluesky, I've been told this app has become the place to go for common sense political discussion and analysis. So I'm thrilled to be here to engage with all of you.

I spent half my career being criticized for being the youngest person in politics. Now I'm the oldest. This guy is three years younger and a lot less competent.

We are seeing a foreign policy doctrine develop that will change the country (and the world) for the better: 1) clearly define an American interest; 2) negotiate aggressively to achieve that interest; 3) use overwhelming force if necessary.

To that end, I found Justice Thomas's concurrence on medical care for transgender youth quite illuminating. He argues that many of our so-called 'experts' have used bad arguments and substandard science to push experimental therapies on our youth.

I went to the WWI cemetery he refused to go to. He was standing with his four-star general and he told me 'I don't want to go in there because they're a bunch of losers and suckers.' My son was not a loser, he was not a sucker, you're the sucker, you're the loser.

I have yet to see a single good argument for why Iran needed to enrich uranium well above the threshold for civilian use.

We are not at war with Iran, but with Tehran’s nuclear weapons program.

Our hope is that the lesson that the Iranians have learned here is, 'Look, we can fly a bunker-buster bomb from Missouri to Iran, completely undetected without landing once on the ground, and we can destroy whatever nuclear capacity you build up.'

Iran’s uranium stockpile... will need to be dealt with in the coming weeks.

We’re not at war with Iran. We’re at war with Iran’s nuclear program.

We’re going to be able to beat this.

I played a role in changing names of all those military camps with names tied to slavery.

We need to be honest about our history.

We have work to do. We need to keep pushing America forward.

I was hoping José Padilla would be here to ask a question. But, unfortunately, I guess he decided not to show up because there wasn’t the theater, and that’s all it is.

Juneteenth is a day of liberation, a day of remembrance and a day of celebration.

There’s nothing, nothing beyond our capacity when we act together.
