When we started this journey in 2015, we had one grandchild. Today, Angie and I are blessed to have eight grandchildren. After 30 years in the Air Force and 10 years in Congress, itโs time to spend my future with the love of my life, our four kids, and our wonderful grandchildren. Thank you, Nebraska!

This is easily explained. @janekleeb and @NebraskaDems admit they canโt win in Nebraska, so they are trying to deceive voters with fake independents.
Nebraska has seen an increase in independent candidates. A UNL political science professor talked with Nebraska Public Media News about their impact on Nebraska elections.

SELECT: "So, Dan is about as far left as you can get. He may be running with an โIndependentโ behind his name, but all his positions are with the Democrats. We could not be more different."

I am going to miss @DonJBacon.
For the last decade, he has been a top ally for Jewish Americans and has always supported Americaโs friendship with Israel.
He isnโt your average politician. He has maintained the very same values and moral clarity since the day he was sworn in.
We can all learn from Don how to be true to yourself. He never caves to outside voices or political pressure. He refused to choose political expediency even if he helped him win certain bases.
You can call me a forever fan of @DonJBacon. See below the time @DanielLevine21 and I interviewed him on Rabbi Danielโs podcast , the Fifth Question.

"I can't be Christian and not be completely connected to the Jewish people. Our entire faith is built on the foundation of Judaism. God blesses those who bless Jews and curses those who curse Jews."

โI canโt think of a better way to honor Americaโs 250th birthday than by giving those who have sacrificed so much a way to make their lives betterโ: Meta is giving free Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses to every legally blind veteran in the U.S., Meta president @DinaPowellMcC and @UFC president and Meta board member @danawhite announce.

Was it a town hall or a roast? @janekleeb and @NebraskaDems were grilled by concerned citizens for selling out on the very causes they championโclean energy & land rights. Attendees cautioned against โDixiecratsโ and spoke out against failed Dem leadership. Powerful to witness.
The debate over data centers in Nebraska took center stage at a North Omaha town hall Thursday hosted by two state senators.

I have an advanced copy of book and I love it. I enjoyed reading about my colleagues & their journeys. I also appreciate Rye Barcott for interviewing me and sharing my story. This is about having the right priorities and always carrying our moral compass. couragecansaveus.com/

Some choices are bigger than party.
Thatโs the case @JeffFlake makes in this must-read Washington Post op-ed, urging Maine Democrats to put character over partisanship and back @SenSusanCollins.

For those suffering from amnesia: just four months ago, the Islamic regime in Iran slaughtered over 40,000 people in only two days, for the sole โcrimeโ of protesting for freedom.

I am a lifelong Democrat.
But
For every victim of domestic violence.
For every woman who feared or was subjected to sexual assault.
For my Great Uncle and the 6,000,000 others murdered by the SS
I will back Susan Collins over the physically abusive nazi in Maine.
