(1) I know it must seem confusing that I have waxed eloquent about Lindsey Graham one minute and denounced him the next, so I better explain why. Same goes for Marco Rubio, Rand Paul, and some others.
I believe in always #VoteGOP while criticizing issue by issue regardless.

(2) A lot of folk don't always #VoteGOP, and they, are the reason we don't always win elections. You can divert blame all over the place if you want, to vote fraud and other places, but this fact is inescapable. Staying home ensures that a Democrat wins.
(3) My heart goes out to all the patriots who have to vote for people like Mitt Romney, in order to keep a Democrat out. Your situation sucks.
As irritating as he's going to be in the Senate, he will vote for GOP-nominated judges, and that is EVERYTHING. Absolutely everything.

(1) "Conspiracy theories being closed systems indifferent to probability and immune to evidence, the report did nothing to curtail speculation about the cause of Hastings’s death."
A detailed, 7-page article on "who or what killed Michael Hastings?"

(2) I've spent most of my life (48yrs) thinking about how people can determine what is real & what is not. In college I learned how to write in a "scholarly way," then learned on-the-job how to write credible policy reports 4 politicians, then retired & did "self-directed study."
(3) Medical issues forced me to retire far younger than I wanted to. I LOVED my job analyzing policy options, advising decision makers (Cabinet members), & drafting PR talking points. Still, I gained "intellectual freedom" to study & say whatever I want.
(1) Forget the headlines from the lying, leaking, liberal MSM. Read the official statement here:

(2) The MSM critiques of the President's statement focus on peripheral aspects like his use of exclamation marks. Reflect on that, against the incredibly serious points made about Iran, international terrorism, global oil prices etc.
Which side is talking about what MATTERS?

(3) Every point POTUS made was already known to me, & to you, if you've been following actual events & trends, instead of the MSM spin.
YES the murder of Mr Khashoggi was AWFUL & it is NOT condoned by Trump, the US, or me, or you.
A President must consider the whole picture.

(1) If you've never heard of Darren Beattie, former WH speechwriter, join the club.
My thread about him, for fellow #MAGA supporters:

(2) Beattie was apparently asked to resign a few days ago because it's not clear to the public whether he has ever expressed publicly the kind of views on race that the Left constantly tries to ascribe to the President and all of his supporters.

(3) It's very unfortunate that we're not able to read a transcript of the speech in question or watch a video of it. There's a less in this for anyone who gives public speeches. Record it, for your own protection.
(1) For myriad longstanding reasons, President Trump is withdrawing the US from the 12 year old UN "Human Rights" Council.
The UNHRC has never promoted Human Rights. Only the rights of our enemies, including the global Islamic National Socialism network, Iran & Russia.

(2) #PromisesMadePromisesKept - Expect further changes to US involvement in the UN under this President. It's what he campaigned on, and what American voters wanted. For too long, our adversaries have exploited the UN to work against America and its interests.
(3) The UNHRC:
>protects human rights abusers
>allows them to serve on council
>shows bias in decisions
>enables countries like China, Egypt & Russia to undermine U.S. reform efforts
>has passed more resolutions in 2018 condemning Israel than Iran, Syria & NoKo combined.

(2) After the tragedy of losing a child or surviving online sex trafficking, these brave Americans celebrated the signing of the 'Allow States and Victims to Fight Online SexTrafficking Act of 2017' on April 11. Above, Yvonne Ambrose, a victim's mother, receives a signing pen.
(3) President Trump has done more than any other to stop and prevent online sex trafficking and all forms of abuse, exploitation and trafficking of children, women and men.

A special moment here:
(1) Unsurprisingly, pro-Pakistan folks are spinning all kinds of lies about Afghanistan, India, China & Russia in an attempt to threaten & control President Trump & the USA. So it's a good time to revisit his historic 8/21/17 #SouthAsiaStrategy speech. whitehouse.gov/briefings-stat…
(2) Please bookmark the above tweet so you can refer back to this thread later. I'll be back soon to complete it (need coffee).
Here's how POTUS started talking in his speech about the war in Afghanistan.

(3) In a decision that flushed out the faction of Trump voters who are selectively dogmatic and unwilling to consider the "realism" part of #PrincipledRealism, POTUS owned his change of mind on Afghanistan. Obama never admitted taking a stance that differed from his campaigns.

(2) The President started the week with a landmark National Security Strategy speech in Washington, DC. #PeaceThroughStrength #AmericaFirst
(3) Oh noes! He held the glass with both hands again! Probably because he unconsciously worries about spilling some, like I do. We're neat freaks and germaphobes, stop judging us!😎
