Two NJ teens, Maria Niotis and Isabella Salas, were killed in a hit-and-run. The 17-year-old suspect, a Charlie Kirk fan, allegedly stalked Maria. His post-attack livestream raised alarms about radicalization.

I live in Oklahoma. My family owns a very large ranch. Do you want to know how many Dems made an attempt to reach out during the election? How many Dems I saw campaigning to the farmers in Oklahoma or Kansas?

None.

If there's no conversations happening, then expect the worst.

Here we are in another Republican government shutdown and my Rep is home doing photo ops instead of in D.C. trying to help working Americans. I didn't think I'd have to run to the trumpets again but I am. I'm running for Congress because I'm not done yet and neither are we. youtu.be/OSOAPMl_BSc?...

I kid you not.

Americans are now subsidizing Argentinian soybean exports to China.

At the same time. American farmers are selling none to China.

The news media *in particular* needs to remember this and report on them accordingly instead of like some royal edict that becomes objective reality before the ink dries.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.
