Christian, husband, father. U.S. Senator from Ohio.
I just learned of the passing of Pope Francis. My heart goes out to the millions of Christians all over the world who loved him.
I was happy to see him yesterday, though he was obviously very ill. But I’ll always remember him for the below homily he gave in the very early days of COVID. It was really quite beautiful.
May God rest his soul.

I’m grateful every day for this job, but particularly today where my official duties have brought me to Rome on Good Friday. I had a great meeting with Prime Minister Meloni and her team, and will head to church soon with my family in this beautiful city.
I wish all Christians all over the world, but particularly those back home in the US, a blessed Good Friday.
He died so that we might live.

Consider that Joe Biden allowed approximately 20 million illegal aliens into our country. This placed extraordinary burdens on our country--our schools, hospitals, housing, and other essential services were overwhelmed. On top of that, many of these illegal aliens committed violent crimes, or facilitated fentanyl and sex trafficking. That is the situation we inherited.
The American people elected the Trump administration to solve this problem. The President has successfully stopped the inflow of illegal aliens, and now we must deport the people who came here illegally.
To say the administration must observe "due process" is to beg the question: what process is due is a function of our resources, the public interest, the status of the accused, the proposed punishment, and so many other factors. To put it in concrete terms, imposing the death penalty on an American citizen requires more legal process than deporting an illegal alien to their country of origin.
When the media and the far left obsess over an MS-13 gang member and demand that he be returned to the United States for a *third* deportation hearing, what they're really saying is they want the vast majority of illegal aliens to stay here permanently.
Here's a useful test: ask the people weeping over the lack of due process what precisely they propose for dealing with Biden's millions and millions of illegals. And with reasonable resource and administrative judge constraints, does their solution allow us to deport at least a few million people per year?
If the answer is no, they've given their game away. They don't want border security. They don't want us to deport the people who've come into our country illegally. They want to accomplish through fake legal process what they failed to accomplish politically:
The ratification of Biden's illegal migrant invasion.
President Trump and I will not stand fori t.

.@VP: "For forty years, we have lost manufacturing capacity, workers are seeing their wages stagnate, and some of the most critical things that we need... we don't make enough of that stuff... workers are going to benefit, stocks are going to go up, American businesses are going to benefit as we reinvest and reindustrialize our country."

The Supreme Court today rejected the idea that far left judges in DC can overrule President Trump's immigration enforcement.
This is a major loss for the lunatics and a major win for the American people.
Onward!

Now we're at the point, of course, that the the situation has gotten so bad that this December, Romania straight up canceled the results of a presidential election based on the flimsy suspicions of an intelligence agency and enormous pressure from its continental neighbors. Now, as I understand it, the argument was that Russian disinformation had infected the Romanian elections."

President Trump: "A modestly successful comedian, Zelenskyy, talked the United States into spending $350B to go into a war that couldn't be won... But they're no longer dealing with the same United States they were dealing with a few months ago."

Even if you disagree with me substantively, these institutions have revealed themselves to be so brittle. AfD is in second place in Germany. The "far right" keeps getting closer in France.

Always funny to me that "listen to your people when they object to mass migration" and "censorship is bad" is treated as a "threat to democracy."
Do you know what "democracy" actually means?

Call me crazy but if you got two hearings and a valid deportation order then you shouldn’t be in the United States.

There is a category of DC insider who wants to fight an actual war with China but also wants China to manufacture much of our critical supply. This is insane.
President Trump wants peace, but also wants fair trade and more self-reliance for the American economy.

President Trump has been calling attention to the disaster falsely marketed as "free trade" for decades.
In reality, foreign countries have gotten rich at the expense of the American worker.
Today, he finally levels the playing field. 🇺🇸

The transatlantic elite have created so many institutions to silence their own people and to delegitimize the beliefs of the public. Of course, the Biden administration was the worst offender.
