This is a big deal.

Another far-left, Soros-funded prosecutor was just defeated by a tough-on-crime challenger.

This happened in Portland, Oregon — one of the most left-wing cities in the country.

The soft-on-crime era is coming to an end.

Voters have had enough. 🧵(1/14)
Mike Schmidt, the hard-left Portland DA, won with 77% of the vote in 2020.

Last night, he lost by double digits — despite receiving hundreds of thousands of dollars from Soros groups.

His opponent was a lifelong Republican.

Yes: A lifelong Republican won in Portland. (2/14)Image
Schmidt is the latest scalp in a tough-on-crime revolution that's happening across the country.

In the wake of BLM, far-left prosecutors swept into office in many major cities — and immediately began implementing soft-on-crime policies.

The results were devastating. (3/14)
Image
Image
But soon after those policies took effect, a backlash began.

The first sign came in July 2021: The election of Eric Adams as New York mayor.

Whatever you think of Adams today, his win was a rebuke of the Left. He made cracking down on crime the center of his message. (4/14) Image
The next flash point came just a few months later, in November 2021: A law-and-order Republican handily defeated a far-left Democrat for the position of Seattle City Attorney.

(The far-left candidate was especially insane — she wanted to literally abolish the police). (5/14) Image
Then, in June 2022, a political earthquake hit San Francisco: The city's infamously radical district attorney, Chesa Boudin — the son of violent communist revolutionaries who murdered multiple police officers in the 1980s — was recalled by San Franciscan voters. (6/14) Image
A month later, in July 2022, Baltimore state attorney Marilyn Mosby — another Soros-backed left-wing prosecutor — lost in the Democratic primary to a more traditionally tough-on-crime opponent.

Mosby had been charged with perjury—which she claimed was a result of racism. (7/14) Image
Then, in April 2023, Kim Foxx — also far-left and funded by Soros — announced that she wouldn't seek re-election to her position as Chicago's top prosecutor.

Foxx's policies were so radical that she had become a political liability for Chicago's Democratic Party machine. (8/14) Image
A month later, in May 2023, yet another left-wing Soros prosecutor abruptly resigned in disgrace: Kim Gardner, the Circuit Attorney for St. Louis, Missouri.

Gardner's resignation came after a long string of widely-criticized radical policy failures. (See below). (9/14)Image
Image
Then another, that very same month: Rachael Rollins, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Massachusetts.

Rollins was appointed to her position by Biden. She resigned in the face of a looming corruption investigation.

She was the fifth Soros prosecutor to get the boot. (10/14) Image
But the backlash isn't over yet.

At least two more major Soros prosecutors are facing serious challenges this November.

The first, Oakland DA Pamela Price, is currently fighting for her political life against a recall campaign. And the momentum isn't on her side. (11/14) Image
And George Gascon, the notoriously radical DA for Los Angeles County, is facing a challenge from a tough-on-crime Republican (who is running as an independent) in the upcoming election.

The challenger, Nathan Hochman, leads Gascon in the polls by a nearly 2-to-1 margin. (12/14) Image
It remains to be seen how these two races will end. These are deep-blue cities, after all — Gascon has survived two recall elections already.

But the fact that there even were two recall elections in Gascon's four years in office shows just how deep this backlash goes. (13/14)Image
It's one thing for conservative parts of the country to be against soft-on-crime radicalism. That's normal.

But this revolt is taking place in the deepest-blue cities in America.

What happened in Portland last night is proof: On this issue, the Left is losing — badly. (14/14)

Trump is right.

It was called the "American System": High tariffs on imports from abroad, low taxation of economic activity at home.

This was the system that transformed America from an agricultural economy to an industrial powerhouse.

Economic nationalism built our country. Image
The father of the "American System" was Henry Clay—A towering figure in American history.

Clay was one of the great American statesmen, serving as a U.S. Senator, Speaker of the House, and Secretary of State during his 55-year career.

He also helped create the Republican Party. Image
Before the American System, we were essentially a colonial economy:

We exported raw materials to Britain—and then purchased the finished goods back from British factories.

Our wealth and resources flowed overseas, while our workers stayed poor.

Clay wanted to break this cycle. Image

Spying on campaigns, treating parents like terrorists, persecuting conservatives—America's top law enforcement agency is out of control.

The FBI needs to be reformed.

Trump picked the perfect man for the job.

Here's who Kash Patel is—and what he's up against. 🧵 Image
In October 2020, the Department of Justice announced they were charging 6 men in a kidnapping plot.

Gretchen Whitmer—Michigan's governor—was supposedly their target.

According to the FBI, the men planned to kidnap her, transport her out of the state, and try her as a "tyrant." Image
8 other men were charged by the state of Michigan for providing material aid to the plot.

Many of them were tied to the Wolverine Watchmen, a local militia group.

The plot quickly became a talking point for those who wanted to portray right-wing groups as a threat to democracy. Image

China is on the march.

They're blinding sailors, sinking ships and taking their neighbors' land.

Their goal: Total control of the most valuable chokepoint in global shipping.

Until now, the U.S. Navy has been able to fend them off. But how much longer can we hold the line? 🧵 Image
The South China Sea is critical to the world's economy.

Over $4 trillion worth of trade flows through it every year—making it the most valuable maritime chokepoint in the world.

Since 1947, China has claimed to own 90% of it. Now, they're violently driving other nations out. Image
They call it the "nine-dash line"—the areas of the South China Sea that Beijing claims to own.

Many of those claims are disputed by other nations. In 2016, the Philippines took China to court over them.

The Philippines won. The court ruled that there was no basis for the line. Image

Trump says he wants the "largest mass deportation in American history."

The Left says that's impossible—too costly, too complicated, too cruel.

They're wrong. We've done it before—and we can do it again.

Here's what it looks like. 🧵 Image
There have been various points in American history—under both Republican and Democrat presidents—where we've mobilized resources to repel a border invasion.

Clinton launched Operation Gatekeeper. Bush and Obama both deployed the National Guard to help apprehend illegals. Image
Image
Deportations, too, are a "longstanding and normal process," as @amrenewctr points out in an excellent new report.

"Deportations have occurred in significant numbers in every recent administration," they write. Even Obama deported over 3 million illegals.

There's been a lot of debate about polls over the past few days.

You should tune all that out. Pay attention to the fundamentals.

The most historically important indicators all strongly favor the GOP.

We'll give you a quick breakdown. 🧵 Image
This is from a Gallup report published in late September—just over one month ago.

It's a measure of how both parties are currently performing on metrics that have predicted past presidential election outcomes.

On almost every single metric, Republicans are beating Democrats. Image
As the table shows, the two strongest historic predictors of presidential election outcomes are:

1) Trends in which party Americans are identifying with/leaning towards

2) Which party Americans trust more to handle the issue they're most concerned about

The GOP wins both.

Over 400,000 Americans just came together to demand that Kellogg's stop putting toxic chemicals in children's food.

But the problem is much bigger than Kellogg's.

The truth is, Americans are being poisoned.

Our food safety system has completely collapsed. 🧵 Image
Image
Image
Image
As @calleymeans noted below, Kellogg's uses natural ingredients like carrot juice to color their cereals in Europe.

But in America, it fills them with petroleum-based dyes.

Studies show those dyes are linked to serious behavioral problems for children.
In 2015-16, Kellogg, Mars, and General Mills—three of the largest US makers of children's food—pledged to remove artificial coloring dyes over the next few years.

All three quickly abandoned that pledge. The deadlines they set for themselves came and went—and nothing changed. Image
