America 250
In the summer of '76, the parchment caught flame,
not from men alone but from a higher name.
“Endowed by their Creator,” the quill declared,
rights no parliament, no crown, no mob could tear.
Life, liberty, the pursuit that belongs to the free—
self-evident truths written for you and for me.
They did not beg permission from the powerful few;
they rose with muskets when the old order was through.
A Constitution was forged with deliberate chains,
to bind ambition and protect what remains.
Limited government, states sovereign and strong,
the people the source, where real power belongs.
Two hundred fifty years the inheritance stands,
carried by builders with calloused hands.
Pioneers who asked little and gave all they could,
families who prayed, neighborhoods that stood.
The promise was never a check from the state,
but the chance to rise by your own honest weight.
Tradition and law, faith and frontier fire,
the soil from which every true American aspires.
Now at 250, the choice is laid plain:
guard what was given or watch it be changed.
The spirit of ’76 still answers the call
to restrain the ambitious and answer for all.
Not to invent new rights from the fashions of men,
but to keep the old covenant whole once again.
A republic, if we can keep it, still waits on our will—
to live as the founders intended, not as we feel.
So raise the flag where the founders once stood,
and remember the price paid in liberty’s blood.
America at 250 still carries the flame:
self-government, ordered liberty, and the Creator’s claim.
God really blessed us on America 250 with President Donald J. Trump.
We could have been stuck with America-hating traitors Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.
Thank you, @realDonaldTrump, for this beautiful celebration of the greatest country in the world!
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Muslim nurse who appears to work at @utmbhealth in Houston, Texas, posted a video appearing to show that she wouldn’t treat a patient if they watch Fox News.
Any comment on a nurse discriminating against patients for political views @utmbhealth?
Congratulations to my friend @NateSchatzline on this well-deserved opportunity! Closing our primaries is a foundational priority of the Republican Party of Texas, and Nate has been a tireless fighter for this cause. I have no doubt he'll do an outstanding job leading this effort.
I have officially resigned my seat as the Representative for House District 93. I am tremendously proud of the work we’ve been able to accomplish over the last two sessions.
Serving the people of Ft. Worth has been the honor of a lifetime and my family and I will cherish the memories and friends we have made throughout my time in office.
I am grateful for Governor @GregAbbott_TX’s trust and look forward to helping him carry out his agenda of making Texas the blueprint for election integrity!
