This shooting has claimed one of my favorite people. News this morning announced Chris Claunch as the second victim.
Chris was an amazing soul, we elk hunted for a few years together. He owned the sporting good store here in hagerman and was one of my influences to become an entrepreneur. One time I took him on a crazy hike and he ended up with frost bite but he pushed through it. One tough man! He will be dearly missed and the world has lost something truly rare. Rest easy Chris we love you!
Introducing the most inclusive team in @wnba history: the Nashville Balls. A 100% trans organization — men finally breaking the glass ceiling in women’s sports!
No better way to start my morning than to continue to stand up for women!! Thank you @foxandfriends
And of course it’s always great getting to work with @JenniferSey@xx_xyathletics
Due to failed leadership in Minnesota, @KKotzmacher was forced to compete against a male pitcher for a state championship.
He pitched every inning of the state tournament.
Kendall has since used her voice to advocate for fair competition and safe spaces for women and girls.
Be sure to give her a follow.
The Idaho Dairymen’s Association brags that 90% of their workers are foreign-born. Imagine how much wages would go up if they hired Americans and stopped relying on public services.
It’s time to rip the bandaid off and pay what it takes to employ our own.
BREAKING: NOMINATION OF @DAGTodd MOVES FORWARD
PARTY LINE VOTE @SenJudiciaryGOP - 12
@JudiciaryDems -10
NOW ADVANCES TO FULL SENATE DEBATE AND CONFIRMATION VOTE.
WOULD NEED AGREEMENT TO ACCELERATE BEFORE RECESS.
@DarlineGrahamSC Great. Now why are you not using your legal name and instead just using “Graham” now? For a voter advantage? I guess everyone who joins Congress is a scumbag!
I believe that if you want to come to the United States, you do it legally.
And if you want to stay here, you need to adopt and respect our American values, not ask us to live by yours.
MARK UP SENATE JUDICIARY @DAGTodd NOMINATION
@ThomTillis said both republicans and democrats have a weaponization problem.
Addressing committee democrats, Tillis said they are not standing on "some moral high ground."
NOTE: @SenAdamSchiff is sitting far right of the panel.
Tillis pointed to "weaponization" under the Biden, Obama administrations, CROSSFIRE HURRICANE, the IRS targeting of conservative groups by Lois Lerner.
"Nobody is clean here"
Tillis and @JohnCornyn were holdouts on Blanche nomination until impasse over the anti-weaponization fund and IRS settlement was resolved by written assurances.
For a week now we’ve been wondering what happened to the 20 illegal aliens RELEASED DURING the small operation near Lenoir, NC at Wilson’s Creek Wild and Scenic River. Does @DHSgov@RealTomHoman and @SecMullinDHS know that releasing illegal aliens is both illegal and hurts already diminutive self deportation efforts? So where are the illegal aliens you had released and how often does this happen during “ worst of the worst” model of Obama era enforcement? Everyday perhaps? What the hell are you doing? @LaurenWitzkeDE@OldPatrolHQ@BreannaMorello
It turns out:
The Biden-Harris administration wasn’t just a terrorist organization; it was a money-laundering operation.
The Democrats laundered nearly $100 billion just minutes before Donald Trump took office from the DOE, with no oversight, to entities with no financials.
“The 76-day period you’re talking about—that’s the period between the time President Trump was elected and President Biden left office. How much taxpayer money went out the door of the Department of Energy?
From the Loan Program Office, in loans and commitments: $93 billion. Well over twice as much as in the previous 15 years.”
🚨 JUST IN: Sen. TED BUDD (R-NC) just JOINED Mike Lee, Rick Scott and President Trump in the push to block August recess for the SAVE America Act
Ted Budd is LIGHT YEARS better than Thom Tillis 👏🏻
"Before the Senate adjourns, we must pass the SAVE America Act, confirm President Trump's outstanding nominees, and fund the government." 🇺🇸
Thank you, @SenTedBuddNC!
2013. Obama is asked why his administration is deporting so many people and continuing to separate families.
Obama: I'm the President, not the Emperor. I have to enforce the law even if it is tragic and heartbreaking.
