When police are admitting this out loud, it's time to admit the cage isn’t coming, we're already inside it.
I’m incredibly privileged and honored to serve under who I believe to be the greatest man in American politics since the days of our Founders, @RepThomasMassie@MassieforKY.
In less than a year, and in spite of the whole of the Washington establishment opposing us, we’ve achieved what any political consultant would have deemed impossible.
We threw a sucker punch to the globalist elites and caused a real upset in international affairs through the Epstein Files Transparency Act. We bypassed corrupt leadership in the House of Representatives and the White House. We exposed decades of deep seated corruption in our Department of Justice, spanning 5 presidential administrations. We caused the arrests and resignations of billionaires, CEOs, and even royalty. And through our law, we left an anvil over the necks of all DOJ/FBI participants in the Epstein coverup - who one day may face due punishment when we finally get an attorney general who serves the people, not the cronies.
We embarrassed the establishment, got blackballed, yet still managed to pass more legislation through the House floor - some of which will soon become law. Not to mention, we killed several damning legislative items that would otherwise be law today - such as liability immunities to pesticides and data center manufacturers.
Most importantly, as a consequence of the special interests and foreign lobbyists who attacked us with vitriol and slander due to our rejection of their dollars and schemes in favor of the American PEOPLE, we awakened millions of Americans.
By wasting 35 million dollars in what has become the most expensive Congressional election in the history of the United States, they turned Thomas Massie into a national symbol.
Those who saw through the propaganda learned of a man who votes by conscience, not intimidation. A true defender of the Constitution, and he became their last hope in government.
Of course, last night we lost. But I have a sneaking suspicion what they really did was turn Massie into a movement. This election caused waves that I believe will one day turn the tides.
We will have a return of America First in government. In the meantime, we carry on the fight.

@FiredUpCoug Some states/cities have derelict property laws that allow neighbors to file a lien against the neighbor's property if they are driving their own home values down.
We don’t have a revenue problem, we have a spending problem.
My Penny Plan would cut just 6% a year and balance the budget in five years. That’s it.
Show markets we’re serious about fiscal discipline, and the economy will respond.
Time to hold the line on spending.
He is risen! And because Christ rose again, we will too. Thanks to Him, no pain, fear, failure, or unfairness is permanent. This is greater love. This is Easter.

Why was Lot's wife turned into a pillar of salt? Elder Holland explains:
“Apparently, what was wrong with Lot’s wife was that she wasn’t just looking back; in her heart she wanted to go back. It would appear that even before she was past the city limits, she was already missing what Sodom and Gomorrah had offered her. …
“It is possible that Lot’s wife looked back with resentment toward the Lord for what He was asking her to leave behind. … So it isn’t just that she looked back; she looked back longingly. In short, her attachment to the past outweighed her confidence in the future. That, apparently, was at least part of her sin.
“… I plead with you not to dwell on days now gone nor to yearn vainly for yesterdays, however good those yesterdays may have been. The past is to be learned from but not lived in. We look back to claim the embers from glowing experiences but not the ashes. And when we have learned what we need to learn and have brought with us the best that we have experienced, then we look ahead and remember that faith is always pointed toward the future. …
“… Dwelling on past lives, including past mistakes, is just not right! It is not the gospel of Jesus Christ. …
“To all [people] of every generation, I call out, ‘Remember Lot’s wife’ [Luke 17:32]. Faith is for the future. Faith builds on the past but never longs to stay there. Faith trusts that God has great things in store for each of us and that Christ truly is the ‘high priest of good things to come’ (Hebrews 9:11).”

@donniccolo@connorpardoe_pb@AndreiDaescuPkl@PPAtour I hope so. We sat right by his family during the bronze medal match. During the mixed match we offered Julie Johnson our seats because she had to sit far from her kids bench. There should be saved seats for sure. We felt like we messed up by sitting there.
@AshAshPB Need round of 32 on @Pickleballtv in the style of NFL RedZone where the feed can jump from compelling match to compelling match. Would require more cameras on side courts but would be amazing.
@azetice@alixtruong Picklepod is looking for hot takes and clipable content.
You bring facts and information and analysis for fans.
A solo daily podcast could combine the two.
@azetice@alixtruong I wish there was a different format to get all your announcements and bits of knowledge and opinions on MLP. Like, say, a podcast maybe?
Of all people, you might best be suited to do a 'locked on network' style of daily pickleball podcasting.
During the winter, days can feel heavy and gray.
As a regular part of their work before flights, pilots do outside checks of their aircraft. During cold and rainy days, this is not their favorite part of the job.
But one of my favorite experiences as a pilot on a day like that came after taking off and climbing through dark clouds when, suddenly, the aircraft climbed into the clear, brilliant, and beautiful sunlight—leaving behind dark clouds, rain, and slush.
That instant contrast taught me that when we focus our eyes on heaven, we can emerge into light—even during the seemingly darkest of days.
However thick the clouds, the sun is always there, waiting to shine on us as we rise toward heaven.
If you feel weighed down and troubled, please don’t lose heart. Keep moving forward and upward with faith, prayer, and trust in the Lord. His light is always there to lead and comfort us.
The numbers confirm what we already felt…
2025 was one of the most impactful seasons in @BYUfootball history.
