Former Air Force broadcast journalist. Got a piece of paper that says I know how communications work. That was something. We won’t agree on everything but that’s ok. Every block is a win in my book.

Our plan is very simple: if you storm a church or assault a federal officer, we're going to do everything we can to put you in prison.

Just because you pretend a law doesn’t exist doesn’t mean they won’t arrest you for it. These protesters could give sovereign citizens a run for their money in a saying stupid shit contest.

Another vertical format small watercolour. This one shows All Saints' Passage in Cambridge (1999). On the right you can see the sign for Ray's Barber Shop. Cambridge has always had wonky old lamps (some of them used then to still be gas lit)

People are tired of voting for candidates promising vague value based promises. Those positions look nice but do nothing to address systemic problems. Cool, you like everybody. Now how are you going to build the trains? How are you going to fix education. Come forward with a plan or you lose.

The main issue I don’t understand in the Trans locker argument. Why does one persons comfort come above multiple peps discomfort? I get feeling like you’re in the wrong body. Body dysmorphia has been documented for over 100 years. I just don’t get the entitlement. Changing at home is not that hard.

I've seen a lot of dishonest coverage from the media during my time in politics, but the last 24 hours may have set a new low.

This story was completely fabricated but because they want it to be true they blame Trump and post away. People talk about due diligence and authenticity while being completely blind to their own prejudices. But if the lie works right? That’s the modern way.
In Trump's America this is considered justice...

Really wishing for the best in Iran. Those men, and women especially, have been hurting for far too long. They deserve to be free.

I want every ICE officer to know that their president, vice president, and the entire administration stands behind them.
To the radicals assaulting them, doxxing them, and threatening them: congratulations, we're going to work even harder to enforce the law.

Every time I log on here I have to laugh at how orchestrated opinions are here. It’s like watching the birds from Finding Nemo. When one bird says MINE you all do. 😂
