Do you know who LOVED the SPLC? In fact, the SPLC was famously her first ever donation and inspired her entire philanthropic career?

Laurene Powell Jobs, who owns The Atlantic through her philanthropy Emerson Collective.

Uh-oh, it all starts to make sense now. 1/ Image The Emerson Collective’s number one rule is to donate ANONYMOUSLY, which in most cases is the right and admirable thing to do

UNLESS it’s used to cover up bad deeds. Now, I’m NOT saying the LPJ was involved in the criminality at all.

But to what extent was she funding SPLC? 2/

A lot of folks online are pushing this talking point about 5 Senators ousting Thune. You're getting played. This is not possible. It's being used to make you Kamikaze so that you lose. It's a distraction, to demoralize you.

Here's a rundown of why that's a kamikaze idea:
1/ Image 2/ The Majority Leader is a party position. The full Senate doesn’t elect him by floor vote like the House Speaker.He’s chosen by the Senate Republican Conference (the caucus of all GOP Senators).

This criticism is not based in reality and is devoid of any substantive claims. Uncharacteristic for @realchrisrufo whom I admire.

So, I'll share the behind the scenes story (as much as I can) and respond to the criticism. A lot to address, so will be longish. 1. The FBI Director is a CEO. $11 billion budget and nearly 30k employees. In situations like this one, his job is to lead the law enforcement agents and bring resources to bear.

What is an American? Where do our rights come from?

TWO YEARS before the Declaration of Independence Thomas Jefferson wrote a document that was the foundation for the Declaration.

Why didn't they teach it to you in school? You may be quite surprised at what it says.

🧵 This document, which was presented to the First Continental Congress, was called

"A Summary View of the Rights of British Americans"

When read together with the Declaration, it has powerful answers to the questions of today, especially immigration. Let me show you:

Want to know the left's nefarious plot on the nationwide temporary restraining orders (TRO) against Trump? I'll tell you and what can be done.

It's an obvious trap - can be easily avoided.
Leftist judges are issuing crazy injunctions to spur a "constitutional crisis". 🧵 1/ The lefty judges and activist lawyers are hoping, begging, and baiting the Trump admin to decline to enforce the TROs issued by courts.

It's up to the executive branch to EXECUTE the TROs. The judges are restraining activity that is clearly within the power of the executive.

🧵The inside story of the Senate Leadership Election that MAY change the course of the nation.

Most following this know by now that Thune won 29-24 on the second ballot. But, how did that happen? Many of my followers wanted Scott. But, we got historic wins here. 1. First, what's at stake. We are in an era where "Regime Politics" is what matters. I couldn't care less about minor technical policy differences. We have threats to our American Regime -- our very existence as a nation, the essentials that make us America.

What happens in Washington if Trump wins? 🧵

I've worked in the Senate and conservative space in DC for over a decade. I'll tell you.

1. We have 4 years to save America. But, it's not really 4 years, it's more like 1.5 years for much of his agenda. Let me explain: 2. Much of what must be done can happen on the executive side. He can use all four years for that. BUT, that requires hiring employees to actually execute. The senior people in his administration will need to be confirmed by the SENATE.

A few days out, the impact of JD Vance debate performance is bigger than many realize.

Part of my job is to talk to BIG donors.

Each one I’ve talked to has brought up how bullish they are for the future of the GOP because of JD debate performance. Here’s what this means: 1/ These are people committed to saving the USA. But every cause on earth is seeking their help.

Many donors, especially those in blue states like California, are keenly aware that it’s a risk to donate to right-wing causes.
