Texas is more important than primary election results.
This morning, Laura and I had a great conversation with my runoff opponent, @ShellydeZev and her husband, Chris. We may have been opponents, but we both care deeply about our community and want what's best for the people of TX-38.
Across Texas, the Democrats have nominated radicals up and down the ballot. Radicals who believe in mutilating children, radicals who believe in open borders, and radicals that have no interest in protecting the Texas miracle.
As we head into convention this week and look toward November, Republicans will come together to turn out the vote and beat these radicals!
Trump says voter fraud should land people in prison.
Agreed. And let's start with the politicians spreading election lies with the goal of illegally interfering with counting ballots.
In California, I just signed a law making that punishable with up to 3 years behind bars.
More to come. FAFO, Donald.
Radical judges must stop interfering with President Trump’s America First agenda. These judges are America last and have been given too much power.

If this guy is trying to win an election, it’s disgusting and vile.
If he’s trying to get a free flight home, it’s strategic and cost effective.
Let’s make sure @marcorubio gets his eyes on this.
Zul Mohammed from Pakistan, running for Mayor of Carrollton, TX says:
“No vet has made any sacrifice. I want to make that clear. I do not support the US military. No, I do not support the United States. I look down on both entities”
Zohran Mamdani: “ICE raids are cruel and inhumane. They do nothing to serve in the interests of public safety. ICE as an entity is one that should be abolished.”
I think not supporting voter ID at this point is a pretty clear indication you don’t want fair elections, and we need to stop treating people who don’t want fair elections like they have a simple difference of opinion. freedom has been a relatively brief experiment. it’s at risk.

My Grandad, Bob Courville. He was a man truly worth imitating. Paul said in 1 Cor.11:1 “Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ.”
Jesus couldn’t have placed a better man in my life to imitate. As a dad, grandad, husband, businessman, and servant to The Lord Jesus Christ. He gave me such clear examples of how to love, lead, and serve. How to be a strong and uncompromising man of God who lived out the gospel in every aspect of his life. He loved me as his own son, and that has forever changed my life and my family’s. He always showed up. I could always count on him. He loved me at my worst and at my best. His love was constant. I experienced what the Bible refers to as the love of The Father because of the way my grandad loved me.
I will miss him immensely. But I know he is in heaven rejoicing in the presence of our Savior. Please continue to keep our family in your prayers. And my amazing granny who will carry on without him. May The Lord give her His strength and peace.
I’m forever changed because you were my Grandad
The election was 4 days ago. I have a feeling sometime in the next few days in the middle of the night, Spencer Pratt will be passed for 2nd place.
This kind of voter fraud is exactly why we need to pass the SAVE America Act now!

Fixed the title for you: “ President Trump’s
America First agenda and crackdown on H1B visa scam leads to making homes affordable for American families”
There is a war going on in our country against the traditional family.
The left wants to fully extinguish everything it means to be a mother or father. Time to wake up folks and get in the fight for future.
We need everyone.
When I was pregnant with our second child, her test for Down syndrome was positive. My husband and I discussed it for about 2 minutes. We are Catholic so there was no consideration to abort her. We just knew our lives would change. We bought books, spoke to parents of Down syndrome children, and prayed.
When she was born, she did not have Down syndrome, to our surprise. The test was wrong. Tests are often wrong, we later learned. In fact, 10% of positive NIPT results for Down syndrome are false positives.
Our daughter just finished her second year of law school and has thrived. She is my best friend and I don't know how I could be whole without her.
By brother suffers from Cerebral Palsey. He just turned 50 but is really about 12, mentally. We love him so.
They are both gifts.
Everyone has to make their own decision, and only God can judge, but taking a life purposefully with the rationale that they may not be perfect makes no sense to me, but that's just me.
Admittedly, the post below made me sad. Oh what they may have missed out on no matter the outcome.
#Downsyndrome
#Trisomy21
To anyone reading this who might be facing a similar crossroads, meet my son Josh.
Josh is 3 and has Down Syndrome, the very condition shared about here in this post. We received a prenatal diagnosis at roughly 10 weeks. Some of the complications we feared happened, but that wasn't the end of the story. Josh was born early and spent a month in the hospital. At 1 year old, he had open-heart surgery. Now he's 3, loves life, and is thriving. The hard days didn't win.
If anyone else finds themselves in a similar place, reach out. There's a whole community of people here to support you. It hasn't always been easy, but he's worth every bit of it and then some.
Abortion is evil. Period.
One day it’s because of a disability. The next it will be because the baby has the wrong sex or eye color. We have to draw a firm line. Babies in the womb must be protected.
This week, my wife and I made the very difficult decision to terminate the pregnancy due to Trisomy 21.
The choice was not made lightly. We really appreciate all of the personal stories that you guys shared with us, especially the unconditional support we received from fans with no matter what we decided.
I know some of you may be very disappointed to hear this news. We are devastated. This has been extremely traumatic for both of us, especially Ashley.
She underwent the procedure earlier this week and is on the mend. Thankfully, everything went smoothly, but emotionally we are drained.
Trisomy 21, also known as Down Syndrome, is caused by an extra chromosome. It is caused by an error in cell division, like a glitch. The odds of a baby having it is 1 in 1000.
When I first confronted this news, I was shocked but optimistic. If they’re a little slow intellectually, then we’ll make it work. I signed on to be a parent, come what may…but I just didn’t fully understand what Down Syndrome entailed.
Once we made it public, it became clear that MOST people don’t know what Down Syndrome entails (and no, it’s not the same as Autism):
50% of babies with DS have heart defects. 75% will have hearing challenges. Over 50% will have vision problems. Impaired immune function, developmental disabilities, learning disabilities, delayed physical development, poor muscle tone, structural issues with face, decreased lifespan, etc…Sadly, the list is long, feel free to look it up…Down Syndome isn’t a “blessing”, it is objectively shitty from a health perspective.
I didn’t realize just how rough it is for the child, let alone the family…more often than not, they would be fully dependent on others for the rest of their life.
The miscarriage risk is also close to 50%, which made matters worse…they may never see the light of day and it puts Ashley further at risk.
We spoke with doctors, friends, family and genetic counselors and learned that up to 90% of women terminate their pregnancy after learning the baby has Trisomy 21.
This was WAY higher than I expected, I thought it would be lower given that I hear so many say they kept or would keep the baby. I believe that’s because most terminations happen privately, it feels shameful. A lot of judgment being cast.
You never think you’d be in this type of situation until it happens to you and then things change.
To all of my fans who have weighed in on this topic who have Autism, Down Syndrome or any other conditions…we appreciate you. You matter a lot and we’re glad you’re here. I commend you and your families for having the strength and courage to push forward.
As for us, we made a difficult decision that we believe in the long-run will be beneficial for our family. Thankfully, we had a choice.
It will take a little time to move on, but we are excited to try again in the future and hopefully have a better outcome.
Love you guys & thank you for understanding. ❤️
