As efforts unfold to enact key features of the SAVE America Act using budget reconciliation, you may hear arguments from the Parliamentarian Infallibility Club™️, insisting on slavish devotion to the Senate parliamentarian.
Don’t fall for any of it.
Let’s freaking go!
🔥 MIKE LINDELL IS SURGING IN MINNESOTA!
MyPillow legend just hit 40% and is dominating the GOP Governor Primary race after Trump’s endorsement!
The America First movement ain’t stopping and lets do this Minnesota! 🇺🇸
@MattH_4America Note*** Kids who've been taught the value of a good life and how to obtain it will be fine. Fighting through the hard times, savoring the good times.
Stop speaking death over America. God's got this and it will end the way it's supposed to.
@jeffreytucker@reason This is deeply disappointing. I read "Listening to Prozac" when it came out and was skeptical. Over the years, I watched nearly every woman I know take SSRIs by the fistful. Ultimately, I felt like Kramer's book did almost as much damage as the Food Pyramid.
What's the penalty for lying under oath?
"Lying under oath to Congress constitutes perjury under 18 U.S.C. § 1621, a federal felony punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine."
January, 2026. Jamie Raskin gives an opening statement during a hearing with Jack Smith and lets everyone know that Smith never obtained any content from the phone records subpoenaed.
Under oath, Jack Smith confirms what Raskin had said.
Neither was telling the truth.
🚨 REPUBLICAN SEAT IN JEOPARDY: Meet career Democrat Belinda Keiser.
She is trying to sneak into the GOP primary for FL-22.
This lefty has a long history, former Dem candidate, big donor to Hillary Clinton and DWS, also accused of lying on Senate filings.
We don’t need recycled Democrats wearing an R. (We already have John Thune in the Senate)
FL-22 Republicans: REJECT THIS!
Incredible. By any reasonable standard, Dr. Erica Schwartz represents exceptional merit and achievement: physician, epidemiologist, biomedical engineer, attorney, retired rear admiral, former Chief Medical Officer of the U.S. Coast Guard, and former Deputy Surgeon General. Her record reflects decades of advanced education, operational leadership, institutional responsibility, and public service.
Credentials alone do not place any nominee beyond legitimate scrutiny. Senators should examine her judgment, integrity, policy priorities, and ability to administer the CDC effectively and lawfully. But they should not demand that she operate as an unelected power center “independent” of the President.
The Constitution vests the executive power in the President, and the Supreme Court has reaffirmed that executive officers remain subordinate to presidential supervision and generally must be removable at will. The purpose is democratic accountability: executive officials exercise delegated authority, while the President bears ultimate responsibility to the country for how that authority is used.
The CDC director is appointed by the President with Senate confirmation, not installed as an autonomous policymaker entitled to disregard the administration that appointed her. Within the boundaries of the Constitution, federal statutes, and legitimate scientific evidence, she should faithfully implement the President’s lawful public-health agenda and ensure that the agency’s policies reflect the priorities voters chose through the national election. Federal law establishes the CDC director as a presidentially appointed, Senate-confirmed executive officer and provides no special statutory independence from presidential supervision.
Unfortunately, because President Trump nominated her, many partisan opponents will likely work backward from their preferred conclusion: oppose the nominee first and search for a justification afterward. That is not principled oversight. It is ideological reflex.
Dr. Schwartz should be judged by her competence, record, character, answers, and willingness to execute the lawful policies of the elected President, not rejected merely because President Trump selected her. If merit and democratic accountability still matter, she deserves confirmation.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s written position could hardly be more direct or more damaging to the Texas Medical Board.
The Office of the Attorney General did not merely decline to represent the Board. It intervened against the Board and alleged that the agency failed to follow its own published procedures, violated Texas law and Dr. Mary Talley Bowden’s due-process rights, imposed discipline without a legally sufficient basis, and pursued what the filing characterizes as a “personal vendetta” motivated by personal animosity and spite. The State is asking the court to declare the reprimand void and permanently prohibit further disciplinary action arising from the matter.
That is not casual political criticism. It is the official litigation position of the State of Texas, advanced by the office ordinarily responsible for representing state agencies. Paxton’s office has instead concluded that defending the Board would place it on the wrong side of Texas law, constitutional due process, and the State’s obligation to protect its citizens from unlawful administrative conduct.
The Medical Board maintains that it disciplined Dr. Bowden because she attempted to treat a hospitalized patient without approved privileges and argues that Paxton’s presentation contains numerous inaccuracies. That defense deserves to be heard. But it does not, by itself, answer the State’s central allegations that the disciplinary process disregarded the legal uncertainty created by competing court orders, lacked adequate medical-expert support, ignored mitigating evidence, and denied Dr. Bowden meaningful procedural protections.
The court will determine the ultimate legal outcome. Nevertheless, the Board and its counsel now face the extraordinary burden of defending an administrative prosecution that the Texas Attorney General alleges was unlawful, procedurally defective, unsupported, and motivated by personal animus. Every material decision, internal communication, procedural shortcut, evidentiary determination, and asserted justification may now be subjected to judicial scrutiny.
This is no longer merely Dr. Bowden’s defense against a professional reprimand. It is the State of Texas challenging whether one of its own regulatory agencies abused its authority. If Paxton’s allegations are substantiated, the consequences could include the reprimand being declared void, a permanent injunction against further discipline, substantial litigation expenses, legislative investigation, leadership changes, and lasting damage to the Board’s institutional credibility.
Dr. Bowden may also pursue additional claims against the Board or responsible officials. If the evidence ultimately establishes that officials knowingly disregarded the law, denied due process, or used regulatory authority to pursue a personal vendetta, the Board may suffer something institutionally devastating: judicial repudiation, public exposure, loss of credibility, removal of responsible officials, and permanent restrictions on its authority.
The strongest defensible prediction is that, if Paxton proves what his filing alleges, the Board and everyone responsible for this prosecution may face a reckoning far more consequential than the reprimand they imposed on Dr. Bowden.
This is madness… the Texas government is still GIVING BIRTH CERTIFICATES TO ILLEGALS!!!…
And worse: using your tax dollars to ADVERTISE the “most common FOREIGN IDs” they’ll accept!
Has your State Rep/Senator joined the call for @GregAbbott_TX to stop this immediately??
@emac2005 What? Didn't get a "participation metal" for showing up? Welcome to the real world. How do you expect to get a free ride while those of us who work pay your way? Get it together... stop being a baby!
@MattH_4America LOL... DHS reports that over 2.5 million undocumented immigrants left the U.S. in 2025, a figure combining 605,000 formal deportations with approximately 1.9 million voluntary "self-deportations." These press releases characterize the exodus as a record-breaking achievement...
I am in tears. President Trump just announced our VETERANS will replace illegals as truck drivers ❤️
“Any American that’s driven a heavy truck for our military is automatically eligible for a commercial drivers license”
THIS IS HUGE NEWS 🔥
They've been stealing elections for at least 15 to 20 years, not just here in the United States, but around the world. Now they're exposed and running out of options.
In the Georgia 2020 election at the State Farm Arena, we have them on video pulling out hidden suitcases full of ballots that were separate from all of the other ballots and running the same stacks of ballots through machines all throughout the night, with NO observers present, which is completely illegal, after they stopped the count, lied to observers, telling everyone they're going home.
We have multiple states and counties destroying evidence, no chain-of-custody documents, counterfeit ballots, dead people voting, 120% voter turnouts, IP addresses from outside the country confirmed communicating with our election machines, etc...
Members of our own government, the CIA, DHS, CISA, the EAC, all knew these machines and companies were compromised, but cleared them anyway for use in U.S. elections. That alone should tell you how deep and corrupt the system really is and what we are truly up against.
