I am dismayed (but not surprised) that the United Nations has failed to blacklist Hamas for rape, due to a lack of what it deems to be credible evidence. I believe in the mission of the UN, and the values enshrined in its charter. I just wish that the UN lived up to these…

O.J. Simpson has passed away. O.J. being found not guilty for the brutal murder of two people is the perfect example that our jury system is imperfect and sometimes gets things wrong. #OJSimpson #OJ

We are not as divided as some may believe. According to a new AP-NORC poll, Americans overwhelmingly still agree on most core American values. "If you get a bunch of normal people at random and put them in a room together and chat about issues, there’s a lot more convergence than…

I agree with the late Sen. Joe Lieberman: “It is the partisan polarization of our politics which prevents us from making the principled compromises on which progress in a democracy depends & right now, which prevents us from restoring our fiscal solvency as a nation." #Lieberman

I applaud the unanimous 9-0 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that Pres. Trump can't be excluded from Colorado's primary election ballot. Millions of American voters shouldn't be disenfranchised.

I concur with D. Deutsch: Show IDF footage of what these savages have done; the raping, destruction, beheading; burning & killing of babies; jubilation that the terrorists showed of killing jews with their bare hands & dragging their corpses through the streets & Gazans cheering.

@redbloodedmom A survey in 2023 by(FIRE) of almost 1,500 colleges found that 50% of professors identify as liberal, 17% as moderate & 26% as conservative. Right-leaning professors feared that their ideas & beliefs would meet resistance or outright opposition on campus, resulting in cancelation.

I find it ridiculous that historians have ranked Pres. Biden as America's 14th-best President of all-time. Who's with me?

@SmartMAGAguy I believe in America. While we sometimes make mistakes & there's always room for improvement, the USA remains the greatest force for good in the world. I am proud to be an American. I believe that most Americans irrespective of their political beliefs or party, feel the same way.

I agree with Gen. David Petraeus: "I believe that Prime Minister Netanyahu is right to want to destroy Hamas. I don't believe that this is an organization with whom you can reconcile or leave them still alive. The problem is how you go about this matters." #Hamas #HamasTerrorists

I agree with Gen. Petraeus: "Russia would never stop if they achieve their objectives in Ukraine. Lithuania, a NATO member would be next. Putin's goal since taking office is to reassemble as much of the former USSR as he can. We don't want him to succeed because he won't stop."

The discovery of alleged Hamas tunnels underneath the U.N. Palestinian relief agency HQ in Gaza, brings more shame upon the U.N. UNRWA's excuse that it doesn't have the expertise nor the capacity for inspections of what is or might be under its premises is sorely lacking.#Gaza

Special counsel Hur's report describes Pres. Biden, 81, as a forgetful old man who had frequent memory lapses during his interviews with investigators, including not being able to recall when his son Beau died or exactly when he was vice president.

@AEFJR7565 The Border Bill is a compromise & imperfect. Our Founding Fathers believed in compromise & so do I. The NBPC (which has been critical of Biden's handling of the border), has endorsed the Bill & believes that it will lead to a significant drop in illegal crossings. I hope so too.

As a compromise, I support the bipartisan Border Bill: ends use of catch & release, no amnesty for anyone already here, raises standard to qualify for asylum, increases (screenings for fentanyl & other drugs, detention capacity & number of ICE agents), $650 million to build wall.

I concur with the Border Patrol union that "While not perfect, the Border Act of 2024 is a step in the right direction & is far better than the status quo, which is why the National Border Patrol Council endorses this bill and hopes for a quick passage." #BorderBill #OpenBorder

Compromise was vital to form our govt. Ben Franklin said, “both sides must part with some of their demands in order that they may join in some accommodating proposition.” The Bill of Rights were enacted as a compromise. Compromise isn't a dirty word nor a surrender of principles.

Guardian US columnist Moira Donegan asserts that "any political observer who is not too stupid or too full of himself to notice what is going on knows that the resignation of Harvard president Claudine Gay, had nothing to do with plagiarism." I disagree. #Harvard #ClaudineGay

Adams & Jefferson were patriots, best of friends, then bitter political foes & finally friends again. Mr. A wrote to Mr. J "You and I, ought not to die, before We have explained ourselves to each other." Disagreement is OK, as long as we respectfully talk & listen to one another.

A call for genocide of the Jewish people is threatening. Terrifying hate speech on campuses that incite violence, bullying, harassment or intimidation shouldn't be permitted. University policies need to ensure a safe, secure and supportive environment for all. We are watching.
