The Supreme Court did the right thing by upholding birthright citizenship.

When considering a candidate for public office, character is a more important consideration than policy. Policies change. Character remains.

Exclusive: Former Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) tells me he'd vote for James Talarico over Ken Paxton if he lived in Texas.

He also urged Dems to vote for Susan Collins in Maine.

“Whenever the parties back off from character, it doesn’t inure to the benefit of the country."

These are our allies, Mr President. We are stronger when we treat them as allies. https://t.co/DqOCi3epTc

@SenBillCassidy is a class act: “When you participate in democracy, sometimes it doesn’t turn out the way you want it to. But you don’t pout. You don’t whine. You thank the voters for the privilege of representing the state or the country for as long as you’ve had that privilege”

[Jeff Flake @JeffFlake]

Wonderful words. This reminded me of the maxim that says “you don’t question your colleague’s motives when you know the names of his or her children.”

[The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints @Ch_JesusChrist]

“As followers of Christ, we should seek to live peaceably and lovingly with other children of God who do not share our values and do not have the covenant obligations we have assumed.
“In a democratic government we should seek ‘fairness for all.’ In countless circumstances, strangers’ suspicion or even hostility gradually give way to friendship when personal contacts produce mutual respect.”
— President Dallin H. Oaks (@OaksDallinH) #GeneralConference

Great being back with @colbertlateshow @StephenAtHome on set last night. Good to have my Senate rug back! Happy to help a great cause like World Central Kitchen.

Stephen Colbert revealed that Jeff Flake was the winning bidder for his “stolen” Senate rug Monday night, bringing the former senator onstage to reclaim it. https://t.co/CcBoRyh9ML

[Hoover Institution @HooverInst]

In December 2025, former US Senator @BenSasse announced that he had been diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. That's the primary topic for this @UncKnowledge conversation about mortality, faith, and what truly matters when time is short.

Talking to host @P_M_Robinson, Sasse reflects on "redeeming the time"—holding ambition lightly, loving family more deliberately, and resisting the urge to make politics or professional success the center of life.

The discussion also covers Sasse's thoughts on the failures of Congress; the dangers of a fragmented, attention-starved republic; the crisis of higher education; and the moral challenges of technological abundance.

He speaks candidly and movingly about regret, forgiveness, prayer, and suffering—arguing that while death is a real enemy, it does not get the final word. Watch the full conversation on X:

Take it down, Mr President.

Mr. President, NATO member countries HAVE been there for us. In fact, more than 40 Danish soldiers lost their lives in Afghanistan, as part of a NATO mission, after the United States was attacked on 9/11.

[Jeff Flake @JeffFlake]

This is no way to treat an ally

[Jeff Flake @JeffFlake]

This is a poor trade off https://t.co/4zLcgMwFwv
