Democrats in New York passed a bill this week that changes mother and father to "gestating parent" and "non-gestating parent."

Just another example in a long line of idiotic ideas.

You can’t make this up. It's common sense vs CRAZY!

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

This jobs report once again SHATTERS expectations.

@POTUS and Congressional Republicans are delivering real results for hardworking Americans by:

✅ Creating jobs
✅ Growing wages
✅ Strengthening our economy

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

OUTSTANDING JOBS NUMBERS! 📈🇺🇸

In 29 days, we will celebrate the 250th birthday of our exceptional nation, which became the greatest of all because we were the first to declare the self-evident truth that all people are created equal by God.

Not “born equal.” We are “CREATED equal.”

Because God made us all in His image, it means EVERY SINGLE PERSON has inestimable DIGNITY and VALUE—and our value is not related in any way to the color of our skin, what zip code we live in, what our talents are, our health condition, or any other factor. Our value is inherent, because it is given to us by our loving Heavenly Father.

When a culture devolves to the point of depravity where “influencers” can go online and so casually dismiss the deliberate murder of their own precious child, the survival of that culture itself is at risk.

God have mercy on our nation as we pray and work for an end to this evil, for hearts and minds to change, and for a renewed understanding of the self-evident truths and the sanctity of all human life.

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you.” (Jeremiah 1:5)

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. ❤️

On this day 37 years ago, brave Chinese students peacefully protested for freedom and democracy in Tiananmen Square. The Chinese Communist Party answered with tanks and violence, killing hundreds and wounding countless others.

The CCP may censor history, but it cannot erase the truth.

We remember the victims of the Tiananmen Square Massacre and stand with freedom-loving people everywhere who continue to resist tyranny and fight for liberty.

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

One month from today, America will celebrate 250 years of freedom.

As we approach this historic milestone, we celebrate the blessings of liberty and the enduring principles that continue to guide our great nation.

America's best days are still ahead. 🇺🇸

Here's the fact: this tax season was a great boost for hardworking American families. That's exactly how we designed the Working Families Tax Cuts, and that is what the numbers now prove that we achieved.

After voting against tax relief for low and middle class earners, Democrats have zero credibility when it comes to their claims about wanting to help with affordability. It just doesn't wash.

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

Every year, half a trillion dollars is burned up and wasted because fraudsters and scammers are involved. That's $4,000 per American household every year totally wasted.

Republicans in Congress are tirelessly working on this to restore accountability and get our nation's fiscal house back in order because that's what people demand and deserve.

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

Historic tax relief is putting MORE MONEY back into the pockets of American families and workers.

Thanks to President Trump and Congressional Republicans, Americans are keeping more of what they earn.

Remember: EVERY DEMOCRAT VOTED AGAINST IT.

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

The House-amended 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act passed 396-13 and is backed by President Trump.

House Republicans remain committed to addressing housing affordability and bringing the American Dream back within reach for hardworking families across the nation.

[Financial Services GOP @FinancialCmte]

NEW: Chairman @RepFrenchHill on the House’s amendment to the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act:

“This bill isn’t a silver bullet, but lawmaking is about progress, not perfection. The House-amended 21st Century Road to Housing Act will have a meaningful effect, increasing housing supply across the country.”

This filing season, 97% of filers received a tax cut.

Real relief. Bigger refunds. Higher take-home pay. More money in Americans' pockets.

All thanks to Republicans' Working Families Tax Cuts.

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

NEW ANALYSIS CONFIRMS: The Working Families Tax Cuts just delivered the LARGEST share of tax relief to American families and hardworking people across the country! 🔥

More money back in your pocket where it belongs. 💰

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

Republicans are for common sense.

Democrats are for crazy.

It’s as simple as that.

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

While the Democratic Party is in disarray and being overrun by the radical Marxist left, Republicans are keeping our promises and delivering important results to improve the lives of all Americans.

Great conversation with @kayleighmcenany this morning on how Republicans are fighting to restore common sense, security and prosperity for all Americans.

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

Thanks to Republicans’ Working Families Tax Cuts, investing in our children’s future is easier than ever.

Trump Accounts pair innovation with opportunity to put America’s kids first—investing in financial success and jumpstarting the American Dream.

This is what it means to put the safety and security of Americans FIRST.

While Republicans have CLOSED the border, Democrats are working to reopen the border and PROTECT criminal illegal aliens over Americans.

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

On the very first day of the Trump Administration, President Trump set out to secure the southern border and address the immigration crisis set forward by Biden's failed policies.

Now the southern border has been LOCKED DOWN for a whole year straight. 🇺🇸

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

Promises made. Promises kept.

Republicans are rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer dollars — and fighting for the American families who have been forced to foot the bill for too long.

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

Crushing BILLIONS of dollars in medicare, hospice, childcare and many more types of FRAUD. The Trump Administration is bringing accountability and justice back to the American taxpayer.

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

The border is SAFE and SECURE thanks to Republicans. 🇺🇸

This Memorial Day, we honor and remember the brave servicemen and servicewomen who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our nation and our freedom.

We remain grateful for the courage, service, and sacrifice of our fallen heroes, and we are forever indebted to them.

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

Our best moment of the Indy 500 yesterday was when nearly 400,000 Americans at the world’s largest single-day sporting event went completely silent for the playing of Taps.

Our country never takes for granted the profound sacrifices that have been made in the defense of freedom. #MemorialDay
