Finally back in the battle. To the commies who deleted me, I’ll pray for you and this is exactly why I’m dangerous to them.Jesus is King! #Dilley300#Trump2024
Lindsey Graham sat through eight SCOTUS confirmation hearings, but he only stormed out of one.
Until Ketanji Brown Jackson, he voted for every nominee, including Kagan and Sotomayor.
But when KBJ was nominated, he called her an "activist judge."
He was right.
The only thing I knew about Lindsey Graham, while President Trump was in office, is the following...
And frankly it's the only thing that mattered to me.
Rest in peace.
.@POTUS on the passing of Sen. Lindsey Graham: "He's a tough one to lose. He was great — he was unique in every way... He was like a member of the family to me. It's very tough."
This morning @foxandfriends asked me about the life and legacy of Lindsey Graham, who was a great American. The truth is, death comes for all of us and we need to be ready to stand before God. Watch…
He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.
Revelations 21:4
At the end of a particularly thrilling and rollicking meeting in the Oval Office, Lindsey Graham turned to the room and said: “I’ve never had this much fun in my life.”
I cannot describe to you how much joy President Trump’s leadership and friendship brought to Lindsey. Meetings with Graham at the White House were filled with camaraderie, kinship and uproarious laughter.
As heartbreaking as his sudden passing is, I hope it will bring some measure of comfort to those who cherished him to know just how much he was living his dream every day. Very rarely in life do you get to be exactly where you want to be, when you want to be there, with who you want to be with, doing precisely what you want to do — that was every moment for Lindsey.
When President Trump won in Nov 2024, Lindsey was exultant. Elated. And determined. He couldn’t wait to spearhead work, as the Budget Chairman, on the reconciliation bill that would cement President Trump’s most important campaign promises. I’ll never forget the senate lunch, when a couple Senators were a tad off the program, and Lindsey — in his inimitable way — made sure everyone was onside by the time we left. It was a glorious thing to witness. He knew how to move a room.
Lindsey was a senator’s senator. The job was everything to him. Truly did he believe in the splendor of the office and the noble lineage behind it, of which he was the worthy heir.
He was a senator in the mold of those who fashioned the institution, someone who still had the ability, in a heated exchange, to use rhetorical power to change the course of events.
Which is why we will never forget his legendary Kavanaugh moment. We rarely think that we are out of time with our friends, so while there is a lot more I wish I could have said to Lindsey, I am glad that more than once I told him what that moment meant to the whole nation and why he was the only Senator who could have done it with such utter perfection.
Most importantly, I had the chance to tell him on many occasions what his friendship meant to me and to us all. There was never once a time he didn’t answer a phone call and lend whatever assistance was required. It was never a question with Lindsey. He believed deeply in the code of friendship and loyalty.
The fact that Lindsey started out as a political opponent only to become one the President’s most steadfast and faithful supporters underscores that Lindsey believed emphatically in the voice of the people.
There is a lot more I would like to say. His passing, at a time when he had never been more dynamic, is as unexpected as it is shocking. In many respects, Lindsey was the last of a breed of American Senator whose like we may not yet see again for a long time.
He lived every minute in the arena, a political gladiator to the very last.
More than anything now, our thoughts are with his Sister, nieces and loved ones.
We pray that God will ease their sorrow and heal their pain.
Lindsey can never be replaced and will never be forgotten.
Godspeed, my friend.
Imagine standing before Christ one day and hearing:
"You watched thousands of hours of entertainment.
You read and watched endless news.
You argued and bickered online.
You scrolled for years.
But you barely opened the Book I gave you."
That thought convicts me. It reminds me to keep returning to Scripture, because no voice matters more than the voice of God speaking through His Word.
Erling Haaland’s interview after the game. This guy is a top professional. Just top. Be it in defeat or in his wins. Thank you Erling. Norway may have been knocked out but you won the hearts of millions of people across America and all over the world. 🇳🇴
I just got back from seeing "Young George Washington" and I can't recommend it enough!
Phenomenal movie. I took my family. My teenage son's loved it!
It's the perfect patriotic movie for America 250🇺🇸
The media screams "warmonger" while Trump negotiates peace. Why?
Because the war hysteria was never about Iran — it's about killing Trump and MAGA before the midterms. @BarbaraMBoyd cuts through the psywar. 🎯
For one of you will scarcely die for a righteous person - though perhaps for a good person you might even dare to die.
But God shows His love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:7-8
COMMUNISM PROMISED EQUALITY AND DELIVERED POVERTY.
SOCIALISM PROMISED FAIRNESS AND DELIVERED DEPENDENCY.
AMERICA, FOR ALL HER FLAWS, STILL DELIVERS SOMETHING THE WORLD DESPERATELY WANTS: FREEDOM AND OPPORTUNITY.
Erling Haaland has a sauna, steam room, and ice bath at home.
He does it almost every day, great for leg recovery and mental strength.
But he’s cautious: “Ice bath is a stressful thing. If you have a lot of stress in your life, adding more stress might not be good.”
It’s really individual, pros and cons for each person.
Cold exposure activates brown fat and increases norepinephrine for alertness and recovery, while sauna use boosts heat shock proteins and improves cardiovascular health, but both can elevate cortisol if overdone in stressed individuals.
A balanced take from a world-class athlete.
