I hate it came to this point, but President @realDonaldTrump really had no other choice.

#Turkey
@realDonaldTrump I have always believed the case against #PastorBrunson was a sham.

It’s very unfortunate that the Trump Administration had to retaliate against Turkey for their continued refusal to release Pastor Brunson and other Americans being held in Turkish custody.
@realDonaldTrump Turkey is an important strategic partner militarily and economically.

I hope we can soon get Pastor Brunson and other Americans released in a win-win fashion for both the US and Turkey.

I stand with the people of #Belarus who are pushing back against a sham election of one of the most autocratic and corrupt regimes on the planet.

npr.org/2020/08/13/902…
I urge all those who believe in freedom and democracy to stand with the people of Belarus who are demanding a better life.

I look forward to working with the Trump administration to push back as firmly as possible against the Lukashenko-rigged election.
To the Trump administration, Congress, and world at large:

Beware of ‘little green men’ from Russia going into Belarus to stop protests against a rigged election.

The people of Belarus deserve better.

It is clear to me that the memo regarding the FBI interview of the primary sub-source in January 2017 should have required the system to stop and reevaluate the case against Mr. Page.

foxnews.com/politics/senat…
Most importantly after this interview of the sub-source and the subsequent memo detailing the contents of the interview, it was a miscarriage of justice for the FBI and the Department of Justice to continue to seek a FISA warrant against Carter Page in April and June of 2017.
The dossier was a critical document to justify a FISA warrant against Mr. Page and this DOJ memo clearly indicates that the reliability of the dossier was completely destroyed after the interview with the primary sub-source in January 2017.

Earlier today I received a briefing from the White House’s National Security Advisor, Chief of Staff, and the DNI regarding the New York Times article claiming Russia offered bounties to the Taliban to kill American troops and that President Trump was briefed on these matters.
In my view, the system worked. At the tactical level, force protection was, as always, a priority and at the strategic level, the intelligence did not warrant presidential briefing or action by our country against Russia.
As to the President, the one thing that has been constant is his unwavering support to protect troops in the field.

It appears the French Revolution has now come to the Democratic Party based on initial primary results from New York and Kentucky.

If you had any doubts about who is in charge of the Democratic Party ALL doubts should have been removed.
@JoeBiden, @SpeakerPelosi, and @SenSchumer are figureheads.

There is a growing radical liberal movement which will eventually cast them aside.

The real power rests with @AOC, the Squad and affiliated individuals/groups.
@JoeBiden @SpeakerPelosi @SenSchumer @AOC Every elected Democrat in office, and every Democrat running for office, lives in fear of the mob and The Squad.

The idea of working with President @realDonaldTrump to accomplish objectives to help America is a one way ticket to political exile.

Legal immigration is a positive for the American economy, and visa programs allowing American companies to secure qualified, legal labor throughout the world have benefitted economic growth in the United States.
Those who believe legal immigration, particularly work visas, are harmful to the American worker do not understand the American economy.
Work visas for temporary and seasonal jobs covering industries like hospitality, forestry, and many economic sectors can only be issued AFTER American workers have had a chance to fill the job position.
