Abdul El-Sayed is now the Democrat Candidate for Senate in Michigan. Don’t celebrate because the race looks more “winnable”. A socialist winning a statewide primary is dangerous for this country. 🧵

Vice President @JDVance is focused on taking on fraud. I was proud to join him today to highlight the work that’s being done and the need for stiffer penalties for those who are ripping us off. It’s costing us Trillions!

Important message from @BishopBarron
Like many others, I have been alarmed by the success of certain politicians in our country who identify as extreme socialists or communists. This is not a matter of classical liberals triumphing over standard-issue conservatives; this is the victory of people who stand athwart the fundamental principles that undergird our country. There are many reasons why I detest Communism, but I want to draw attention to just one issue of supreme importance. Karl Marx said that the first critique is the critique of religion. He meant that, before a complete re-working of the politics and economics of a society can take place, religion has to be taken down. This is because religion, as he saw it, is the “opium of the masses,” a drug taken to dull our sensitivity to the suffering caused by economic exploitation. As long as the suffering populace is lured into complacency by fantasies about God's providence and the promise of eternal life, they will never rise up and throw off their chains. But there is a second reason why the elimination of religion is of paramount significance for Marx. Communism aspires to be a totalizing system, involving the government's control over education, entertainment, communication, politics, and especially economics. What stands resolutely athwart this ambition is religion, which declares that all of these societal expressions are finally under the judgment of God. So, if you want Communism to succeed, religion has to be stamped out. If you doubt me on any of this, I would encourage you to read the recent histories of China, Russia, Cuba, Nicaragua, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Venezuela. Revisit those histories and tell me I'm wrong about the attack on religion. Might I encourage my fellow believers in God not to be complacent in the face of this very troubling development in the American body politic?

The Supreme Court’s birthright citizenship decision is wrong, dangerous, and disastrous for American sovereignty and the American people. If we can't fix it with ordinary legislation, then we must do what the Constitution commands in moments of national crisis: We must amend the Constitution and restore American citizenship. We must again put "We the People" first. The Supreme Court’s decision constitutionalizing unlimited birthright citizenship for the children of illegal aliens and temporarily present aliens is wrong—and disastrous for our sovereignty and the future of our republic. The decision exposes America to grave national security risks and threatens to erode the integrity of the core of American self-government: citizenship. Citizenship is more than paperwork issued by the government. It is more than a bureaucratic label that grants access to government programs. Citizenship is the covenantal bond between a nation and its people. In a republic like ours, that bond carries enormous weight. In the United States, sovereignty does not belong to a king or a ruling class. It belongs to the American people themselves. Citizenship defines the legal recognition of who the American people are. Citizenship defines the political community that governs the United States. It defines who exercises the sovereign authority of this republic. But under the Supreme Court’s erroneous interpretation, the Constitution now requires citizenship for anyone who happens to be born on U.S. soil. Even if their parents entered the country illegally. In other words, even if the American people—the citizenry—have prohibited those parents from entering our territory. Even if they are here only temporarily as tourists or on student visas. Even if they have no intention of joining the American nation. That is a dramatic departure from how serious nations understand citizenship. Under the Supreme Court’s decision, citizenship no longer reflects allegiance or loyalty to a country and its laws. It becomes an administrative status to be seized by interlopers. This ruling is the final alarm bell. The bond of American citizenship has slowly eroded through a series of Supreme Court opinions, congressional actions and inactions, and circumstances the Framers of our Constitution and the Fourteenth Amendment could not have foreseen. The result is a constitutional order in which the American people are losing control over the most basic question in any republic: who belongs to the political community that governs the nation. This has been the central fight of my work in this important year for American national identity. I led an amicus brief in this very case. I convened a hearing on birthright citizenship and the meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment. I have pressed this issue because citizenship is the threshold question of the republic. If we lose control of citizenship, we lose control of self-government itself. In the wake of an erroneous Supreme Court ruling like this one, Congress has a duty to examine the Constitution’s text, the historical record, and the policy consequences. Congress also has the power to respond. When the Court mistakenly interprets a statute, Congress can amend the statute through bicameralism and presentment. But when the Court entrenches its mistake as a constitutional command, the remedy must match the injury. Congress can propose an amendment under Article V, and the states can ratify it. That process is purposefully difficult. It requires two-thirds of each chamber of Congress and ratification by three-quarters of the states. Here, the Supreme Court issued a constitutional ruling. Ordinary legislation cannot repair the damage. A constitutional amendment is now required. Accordingly, I will be announcing a forthcoming constitutional amendment to restore the sacred bond between American citizens and their government. That amendment will restore the original American understanding of citizenship. It will restore the right of the American people to define their own political community. And it will ensure that citizenship once again reflects allegiance, permanence, and membership in the American nation. This amendment accords with the text, history, and tradition of the Constitution and the American conception of citizenship. It restores the principle embodied in the Civil Rights Act of 1866, the law that formed the basis for the Fourteenth Amendment. As my amicus brief in this case explained, the law contained a citizenship provision establishing that “all persons born in the United States and not subject to any foreign power” would be granted birthright citizenship. That provision was understood to grant birthright citizenship to children born of parents domiciled in the United States while clearly excluding children born to foreign parents temporarily visiting the United States. And as my brief recounts, the Fourteenth Amendment was adopted to constitutionalize the Civil Rights Act of 1866. The original American understanding of citizenship was never a suicide pact. It was never a weapon for illegal entry, temporary presence, demographic conquest, or foreign influence. Left unaddressed, this Supreme Court decision will destroy the republic. A nation that cannot determine who belongs to its political community will lose control of its sovereignty and its unique character and traditions as new generations of unassimilated foreigners are automatically granted citizenship. We have seen exactly what this process looks like as foreign communists have essentially taken over New York City politics. We cannot allow this Supreme Court decision to consign the rest of our nation to the same fate. Today is a sad day in the history of our republic. But America and the Constitution have survived for 250 years because each generation has had patriots who, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, valiantly fought back the existential threats this great nation has faced. Our generation’s existential threat is a hostile takeover through mass migration. We must—and we will—honor the patriots who came before us by doing our part to ensure we pass on America, the Constitution, and our nation—the real versions, not desiccated husks. That work begins with restoring the right of the American people to decide who joins the political community that governs the United States and exercises the people’s sovereignty.

The majority tried to constitutionalize unlimited birthright citizenship. But Justice Kavanaugh MAY have left Congress a door. I’m filing legislation to walk through it. And I’ll keep working on a constitutional amendment to restore American citizenship.

This decision is egregiously wrong. SCOTUS upheld UNLIMITED birthright citizenship. A bad reading of the 14th Amendment stripped Americans of control over who joins our political community. I fought this in Court. I’m fighting it in Congress. We must win.

250 years ago today, on June 29, 1776, New Yorkers looked out at the water and saw a nightmare on the horizon. The British fleet had arrived, and so many ships filled the bay that witnesses said the masts looked like "a forest of pine trees" growing out of the sea. The timing could not have been more brutal. This was the empire's answer to the rebellion, and it was overwhelming. The first wave of around 45 warships and transports dropped anchor off Sandy Hook and Staten Island carrying General William Howe and roughly 10,000 troops. Within days it kept growing. Then his brother Admiral Richard Howe arrived with more. It would eventually swell into one of the largest seaborne invasion forces of the entire 18th century, hundreds of ships and tens of thousands of professional soldiers and German mercenaries, aimed at one city. Now sit with the timing. While that forest of masts was filling the harbor, delegates down in Philadelphia were in the final days of debating whether to declare independence. They voted for it on July 2 and signed off on the wording on July 4. So at the exact moment America was being born on paper, the most powerful military on earth was already anchored off its coast, getting ready to strangle it in the cradle. The people of New York understood exactly what they were seeing. Alarm bells rang, panic spread through the streets, and soldiers sprinted to their posts to stare at a force they had almost no hope of matching. Washington's army was outnumbered, outgunned, and about to get badly beaten in the battles for New York that followed. That's the part that gets lost in the fireworks every Fourth of July. Independence wasn't declared from a position of strength. It was declared with an enemy armada already sitting on the doorstep, knowing full well what was coming. They signed their names anyway.

We just won. Humphrey’s Executor is overruled. For 90 years, the administrative state used Humphrey's to shield unelected power from the people. I've been fighting for this for years. I urged the SCOTUS to end it. It's a big win.

I’ve got a better idea. TPS became another mass-migration loophole. The Supreme Court has now lifted the blockade. It's time to act. Therefore, I am calling on DHS to move fast, finalize the President's TPS terminations, and deport those who no longer have legal status. Temporary means temporary.

I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
 For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Some thoughts after last night’s Hammer and Sickle wave in NYC: 1. The base of the Democrat Party is now post-American, in their ideals and in their voters. Primary winners ran on "ending the American Empire" and blamed American capitalism for 9/11. Why do you think they're fighting so hard to stop the SAVE America Act? 2. Chuck Schumer, the Great Arsonist of the Senate, is not a viable candidate for reelection in 2028. He sacrificed his career on the altar of mass migration. Now mass migration will cannibalize him. 3. Import the third-world. Become the third-world. Half of NYC residents have a language other than English as their primary language. Zohran got 62% of the foreign-born votes and only 31% of the American-born votes. I bet that trend continued for the Leftist winners of these primaries. 4. To those who say Twitter isn't real life, I'm not sure Bluesky/TikTok are either. Online darlings of the left George Conway and Jack Schlossberg got creamed. 5. "We are Westerners fighting for the total eradication of Western Civilization" was the stated goal of a group founded by a soon-to-be congresswoman. If you still don't know what time it is... 6. It is becoming more and more clear that the Left is rallying around explicitly anti-Western views as it loses ground on the trans/DEI front, just as the Left has done in Europe. Watch this space in the 2028 Democrat Presidential primaries. Communists winning elections is not a "win for the right." This will do great damage to our country and to the political outlook of many Americans. 7. We can still win, but the coalition is changing. The battleline is increasingly about the view of America: are we a nation daring to be great again or is America a mistake and a sin worthy only of eradication? This isn't an arbitrary game or some meaningless competition. Our nation is on the line.
