If we take the flood of "lengthy 20-minute call" claims at face value (and there are already dozens today), Mitch has supposedly logged 5–10+ hours on the phone. That's one dedicated turtle.

Real updates from leaders like Thune and Barrasso are solid. The rest is classic copypasta season while he recovers.

If you’re going to run the government like a business, then revenues need to increase. White House, house, senate, and conservative super majority on SCOTUS. What’s the hold up?

Congrats to Trump on his effective use of Nixon’s Mad Man Theory to get the Iran ceasefire. Trump’s Truth Social posts of late have been far loonier than Nixon’s deliberately erratic behavior during Vietnam. Keep up the great work, Mr. President!!!

It was inspiring to watch the Artemis II launch yesterday — @NASA’s first crewed mission around the moon since 1972. Our space program has always captured an essential part of what it means to reach beyond what we thought was possible, and I hope the four brave astronauts on this mission will inspire a new generation to follow in their footsteps.

Exclusive: The Pentagon asked the White House to approve a more than $200 billion request to Congress to fund the war in Iran, according to an administration official, a new ask that will likely run into resistance from lawmakers opposed to the conflict.

At the height of combat the Iraq War cost around $140 Billion per year. If the Pentagon is asking for $200 billion they are asking for a long war. The answer is a simple no.
