โ€œWe found 146,000 kids so far. Some of these kids claimed that they were raped over 600 times. I don't care who you are. If you can't stand for law enforcement to go find these kids, who are you?โ€ @SecMullinDHS

BREAKING: Marco Rubio just said the quiet part out loud. Americans work 40 yearsโ€ฆ Pay taxes. Follow the rules. Build the country. Then retire on $800, $900, maybe $1,000 a month. Meanwhile, new arrivals can allegedly receive more support from the same system they never paid into. Read that again. The people who built America are being pushed to the back of the line. This is not compassion. This is a government priority problem. America First was never just a slogan. It was a warning. Who comes first? The taxpayerโ€ฆ or the system?

God bless America! America, bless God. God bless our President and leaders. God bless those who give and have given their lives for our freedom. God bless those who have sought to make this nation a shining city on a hill, whose builder is the Lord. My heart is full of gratitude.
These monuments tell the story of America. They honor the men and women who sacrificed for our freedom and the leaders who helped shape this nation. Their beauty, history, and meaning remind us why America remains the greatest country on Earth. They stand as lasting symbols of courage, strength, sacrifice, and the American spirit. God Bless America! ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

History has a feeling before it has a headline. You can feel it in the air. A nation rediscovering its strength. A people rediscovering their confidence. An America that refuses to settle for decline. The next chapter is being written right now!

Over the last few yearsโ€”and especially during COVIDโ€”schools dramatically increased screen time for students. But research is now pouring in showing that excessive screen time has been associated with poor academic performance, and weโ€™ve seen a serious slide in reading and other basic skills along Americaโ€™s students. For its part, the FCC has been subsidizing connections to and within schools for three decadesโ€”spending roughly $3 billion annually today. It is time to review the FCCโ€™s program (known as E-Rate) to ensure great educational outcomesโ€”not distractions or declining performance. So today, I have announced that the FCC will vote this month on a proposal to conduct a thorough review of the agencyโ€™s program. This aligns with a broader trend we are seeing in states, in Congress, and across the Administration to empower parents and address excessive screen time.
