This evening, the Jewish people will gather together to celebrate the Festival of Lights. Image
This holiday is a time to remember and celebrate the heroic revolt and triumph of the Maccabees, who liberated the historic land of Judea, rededicated the Second Temple in Jerusalem, and restored the right to worship freely.
During this time, we are grateful for our close ally Israel, who stands as a beacon of liberty, and shines as a bright light in one of the darkest regions in the world.
As the celebration begins this evening and the menorah is lit for eight nights, Heidi and I wish the Jewish people a very Happy Hanukkah. #HappyHanukkah Image

This just kicks the can into a lame duck session where unaccountable, recently fired legislators will be able to vote without consequence to recklessly spend even greater and more wasteful amounts, all the while driving inflation even higher. 3/x

Judge Jackson handed out dramatically lower sentences in some of the most heinous criminal cases, well outside of the mainstream – including multiple truly horrific cases involving child pornography. 3/x

The Biden administration is dismantling sanctions and is aching to secure a new agreement with the Iranian regime that is even weaker than the original catastrophic Obama-Iran nuclear deal. 1/x cruz.senate.gov/newsroom/press…
