President Trump’s nominees are ushering in America First jurisprudence.

On the Supreme Court, we need courageous constitutionalists like Justice Thomas: faithful to our Constitution, loyal to our legal tradition, and loath to cloak cowardice in proceduralism or false neutrality.

They are counting on work requirements to help millions of able-bodied adults escape government dependency, earn more income, and become self-sufficient.

ZERO of the 725 HQ relocations tracked by CBRE (18–25) landed in Missouri.
This should be yet another wake-up call for our elected leaders. We need BOLD, generational reforms to taxes, regulations & business climate if we want to attract companies and JOBS.

China and Russia have tripled intelligence personnel in Cuba since 2023 to staff eavesdropping facilities aimed at U.S. military sites in Florida. China runs 3 of 18 known signals-intelligence sites on the island, Russia runs 2. Primary targets are CENTCOM in Tampa and SOUTHCOM near Miami. Equipment mostly intercepts unclassified communications. The Trump administration is citing the buildup to escalate pressure on Havana. - WSJ

A perfect way to wrap up the #moleg session! Another outstanding dinner at @jjsrestaurantkc in Kansas City.

Congratulations to @MikeHenderso12 & @benKeath for TAFP’ing SB1067! This updates Missouri’s weak anti-SLAPP law by adopting the Uniform Public Expression Protection Act from the Uniform Law Commission. A huge win for free speech against SLAPP suits that chill public participation. #moleg @InstFreeSpeech

[UnveiledChina @Unveiled_ChinaX]

The final image of the 2026 Beijing summit isn’t a handshake; it’s a trash bin. As the U.S. delegation prepared to board Air Force One, American staff systematically collected every item handed out by Chinese officials—including credentials, pins, and burner phones—and discarded them in a bin at the bottom of the stairs. The message was unmistakable: nothing from China was allowed to cross the threshold of the President's plane.

This "digital purge" is the direct result of a total lack of trust. The U.S. delegation operated under a strict digital lockdown for the entire trip, treating every hotel Wi-Fi connection and provided device as a potential Trojan horse for CCP surveillance. By trashing the equipment before takeoff, the White House signaled that while trade deals can be signed, the security threat posed by Beijing’s cyber-espionage remains as active as ever.

In the high-stakes world of 2026 geopolitics, diplomacy and paranoia are now inseparable. The CCP wants to be treated as a global partner, but the U.S. response shows they are still viewed as a primary intelligence threat. While the cameras caught the smiles in the Great Hall, the real relationship was defined by the security teams ensuring that not a single piece of Chinese hardware made it back to Washington.
