Re-teaching conservative principles.

[Mike Pence @Mike_Pence]

For all of my life, the Republican Party has been defined by a commitment to a conservative agenda, to America as leader of the free world, limited government, free market economics and traditional moral values, especially the right to life. I'm proud to say that from the Reagan administration to the first Trump administration, we governed on that agenda.

But I wrote "What Conservatives Believe," because just in the last four or five years, there's been a rise of what I call the populist right that focuses more on what we're against than what we're for, focuses more on grievance than a positive conservative agenda.

What could go wrong?

[Advancing American Freedom @AmericanFreedom]

The Faster Labor Contracts Act would hand more power to union bosses and federal bureaucrats while stripping workers of a meaningful voice in the process.

AAF's Rachel Greszler argues workers deserve the freedom to negotiate, vote, and decide for themselves.

[Marc Wheat @MarcWheat]

Civility is a feature, not a bug, of a republic

[Mike Pence @Mike_Pence]

“Democracy depends on heavy doses of civility. Since the American founding, we’ve suffered from bouts of incivility, from the sharp words of soundbites to much worse. When it happens, Americans often recognize it and demand more from themselves and their countrymen.”

“When all is said and done, the likes of Pence will wind up being the heroes of the story when it comes to who has the best interests of women in mind in the disastrous abortion debate in America.”

Brilliant Essay by Marc Wheat @AmericanFreedom on the fight for full transparency @US_FDA about the Dangers of the Abortion Pill. Enough is Enough. For the sake of Women’s Health and the Unborn, the Trump Admin Owes the American People the whole Truth about Mifepristone.#Pro-Life https://t.co/49YrFiItVQ

Huzzah!

WATCH: @KemiBadenoch annihilate Keir Starmer and the entire Labour Party in her response to the King's Speech 🔥

Gone.

[CSPAN @cspan]

Q: "Did you ask Marty Makary to resign, sir? Or did you fire your FDA commissioner?"

President Trump: "Well, I don't want to say. But Marty's a great guy…He's going to be off, and the assistant—the deputy is taking over temporarily…Everybody wants that job."

“Bonkers” is what the D’s voted for.

[Ed Whelan @EdWhelanEPPC]

The Virginia constitution provides one means for removing judges: impeachment by the House of Delegates, followed by conviction by 2/3 of the Senate. The idea that the Virginia legislature could remove state supreme court justices by lowering the mandatory retirement age and applying that lower retirement age to *existing* justices is bonkers. And a majority (perhaps all) of the Virginia supreme court justices would rule that such a measure violates the state constitution.

[Marc Wheat @MarcWheat]

Let’s stop using the failed playbook of Sanders and AOC.

[Joel Griffith @joelgriffith]

The Republican Senate’s Road to Housing Act is a dead end for affordability. It stokes housing inflation with subsidies & suppresses rental supply with an assault on private investment. Republicans lose their economic edge when advancing @BernieSanders & @ewarren policies. @marctshort

Andrew Hale is on top of tariffs.

[Drew Hale @DrewHaleDC]

Pleased to join @BBCWorld discussing the US-EU trade and the G7 Trade Ministers Meeting in Paris. The urgency is on the Trump admin to get the Turnberry implemented in the EU before they lose the leverage of the 122 tariffs which expire on 24 July.

[Marc Wheat @MarcWheat]

The rising costs of modest cars is a drag on the independence of lower income Americans.

[Joel Griffith @joelgriffith]

Trump’s tariffs are totaling affordable cars. New car prices are near all-time highs, used car prices and repair costs are rising, and the Corolla is on the endangered species list. Jobs are at stake too. Vehicle & parts production are in recession & vehicle exports are off 20%. @MarcWheat @AmericanFreedom

[Marc Wheat @MarcWheat]

FDA Commissioner Makary deserves to be fired for a wide range of reasons, but may actually do down over flavored vapes. The mind reels.

[Marc Wheat @MarcWheat]

Well, she's not a biologist.

[SCOTUS Wire @scotus_wire]

Justice Alito fires back at Justice Jackson, calling her solo dissent "baseless and insulting" and "utterly irresponsible" after she accused the majority of abandoning principle for power.

We love working with the good people of Liberty Justice Center, who have a deep appreciation for the institutions of freedom.

125,000 mifepristone documents are the Epstein Files of the abortion industry. Release them!

No one should face reprisals from the government or activist groups for charitable giving.

[Advancing American Freedom @AmericanFreedom]

Should Americans have to tell the government who they donate money to?

Government mandated donor disclosure threatens the First Amendment and history shows government databases aren’t secure.

AAF’s @MarcWheat explains why courts should reaffirm the right to anonymous association.
