Quote:Ron DeSantis is GOING OFF on Republicans for SQUANDERING our TWO YEAR TRIFECTA -- ESPECIALLY on deportations

"Why haven't we STRIPPED JURISDICTION from the federal courts over deportation cases?!"

"Why haven't we done IMMIGRATION?! Shut off H1B visas! Why haven't we CODIFIED Trump's immigration executive orders? There's SO MANY THINGS that could have been done. They didn't even ATTEMPT it, Laura."

"A lot of our voters who STAYED HOME. They stayed home because they were FRUSTRATED with the lack of productivity from Republicans in the House and Senate."

Senate Republicans had everything they needed to LOCK IN conservative immigration policy for a GENERATION. They didn't even TRY.

Quote:BREAKING: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis tells Senate Republicans to IMMEDIATELY go maximum speed in confirming conservative judicial nominees, NOW!!

"ROLL IN COTS to the US Senate Cloakroom! Have them work around the clock. You are NOT gonna be able to confirm ANY conservative judges starting Jan. 3 for the remainder of President Trump's term. 54 for sure, may end up with 56. Even if you got some red state Dems to flip, you are NOT getting 6 Dems."

"Make sure EVERY VACANCY IS FILLED between NOW and Jan. 3."

TIME TO GET GOING, LEADER THUNE!

The clock is ticking. And we can't make this decision for them, but Clarence Thomas and Sam Alito also have a decision to make here on if they want to risk being replaced by another Ketanji Brown Jackson

If you only watch one video today, PLEASE watch this.

A high-school English teacher breaks down crying on camera because the high-school SENIORS in his class cannot write a SINGLE SENTENCE.

“I literally broke down in the middle of class because I’m teaching seniors,” he shared. “These kids are leaving high school and going to college, hopefully, after they finish.”

“We had two paragraphs to read, one sentence, complete, to write. I gave them the sentence stems. I basically completed the sentence for them in the model.”

"I have SENIORS that cannot read. I have SENIORS that cannot write."

My gosh...

“These are 17 and 18-year-old kids, and they couldn’t fill in four words. Four words.”

“I gave them the scenario. We annotated together. I gave them the answers before we even had the problem.”

“And they couldn’t do it.”

“I don’t know. I simply don’t know where the problem is.”

“This is only day two, and I have seniors who simply cannot read and seniors who cannot write. They cannot write.”

“They could reason. They have the ability to defend their reasoning if it’s talking to their homeboy, but applying that to a written text, two paragraphs, they couldn’t do it.”

“Our young Black men, our young brown men, our young Black girls, and our young brown girls. Oh God.”

Quote:Incredible chart from The New York Times. The federal government gives 30 times as much research funding to universities as it did during the Cold War, adjusted for inflation. It gives almost three times as much as it did at the end of the Cold War.

Is America more innovative or better at research than it was 25 years ago? Just the opposite: Universities have fat endowments and thousands of highly-paid administrators, but their actual work is less impressive by the day.

Not only that, but campuses have embraced ideological poisons like DEI and critical race theory that are a death sentence for authentic science. And of course, every year brings another 4-5% hike in tuition.

The Trump Administration is right to demand immediate change. No more racial discrimination. No more Marxism masquerading as science. No more waste.
