People often ask me “How can you be gay and a Republican?”
Here’s the reason: The Republican Party is far from perfect. I disagree with plenty of its execution and some of its craziest voices. But when I look at actual policy, I still find the Republican platform to be infinitely more aligned with my values - and American principles- than today’s Democrats.
The modern Democratic platform, as I see it, has become indefensible on almost every front:
- Open borders and de facto amnesty for illegal immigration
- Abortion on demand, up to birth, paid for by taxpayers
- Soft-on-crime policies that put criminals’ comfort above victims’ safety
- Irreversible medical transitions for minors framed as “gender-affirming care”
-Expanding welfare and foreign aid programs that redistribute wealth from productive citizens to people who hate this country
- Opposing common sense voter ID laws that exist in every other modern nation
- Race-based, anti-white discrimination rebranded as “equity”
- Rule by unelected bureaucrats and administrative state overreach
- Climate hysteria and anti-energy independence
- Entrenched elitism and disdain for working class and rural Americans
- Moral equivocation (or outright sympathy) toward Hamas and other terrorist groups
- Censorship and cancellation disguised as “combating misinformation”
- Hostility toward entrepreneurs and job creators
- Reflexive anti-capitalism
- Contempt for traditional religious values, especially Christianity
- Celebration of political violence against conservatives
- Attacks on property rights and due process
- Denial of basic biological reality
These aren’t fringe Democrat positions. These are the mainstream views held by millions and pushed by the party’s leaders.
I’m a gay man who believes in individual liberty, capitalism, secure borders, rule of law, free speech, and the protection of children. On those core principles, the Republican Party - flawed, messy as it is (ex tariffs) - still comes far closer than the alternative. And because the Republicans stand in the way of the most destructive Democrat designs, I’ve joined their team.
That’s why. No apologies 🇺🇸
Here’s an idea:
How about instead of 50 year mortgages we start banning Blackstone, BlackRock, China, and illegal aliens from buying single family homes?
I am going to introduce a bill to ban all non-citizens from any form of welfare.
No Food Stamps.
No Section 8 housing.
No Medicaid.
No Cash Assistance.
Not one penny.
Not one.
If you want free stuff, go home.
They said it, and now they want you to forget. A government shutdown would CRUSH hard working Americans.
The truth speaks for itself.

Yes this just happened.
FBI Director Kash Patel just called out Adam Schiff as the “BIGGEST fraud to ever sit in Senate.”
An absolute must-watch:
“We have countlessly proven you to be a liar in Russiagate in January 6. You are the biggest fraud to ever sit in the United States Senate. You are a disgrace to this institution.”
“You continue to lie from your perch and put on a show so you can go raise money for your charade. You are a political buffoon at best.”
@grok is really disappointing. It’s been wrong so many times on things that should be very simple. Tonight I gave it my birthday and asked for a horoscope. It told me I’m a pieces, but I’m an Aries. I questioned it and it said sorry for the mistake. I just can’t trust it at all.
.@CNN is a disgraceful propaganda arm for radical, sanctuary city politicians.
These headlines directly contribute to the 1000% increase in assaults against our brave @ICEgov law enforcement.
🧵Here are the facts on these illegal aliens:
🧵 1/ If the residents of DC want to be part of a state, the solution is *not* DC statehood
Any solution should involve reverting land ceded by Maryland for the creation of DC—excepting only a narrow corridor encompassing the White House, Capitol, & Supreme Court—to Maryland
