A bet’s a bet, Kirsten Gillibrand. Thanks for being a great sport. We had fun settling our NBA Finals wager. The Texas BBQ, Shiner Bock, and Blue Bell were well worth it.

It was an honor to speak yesterday at the Faith & Freedom Coalition’s Road to Majority Conference. Thank you to the thousands of conservatives from across the country fighting every day to defend faith, family, freedom, and the Constitution.

I’d like to see a peaceful Iran, with a government that wants to be friends with America. That’d be good for Iran and good for America. That’s what President Trump is trying to achieve.

Merrick Garland is prosecuting Donald Trump because he hates him—and Joe Biden doesn’t want America to have the chance to vote for him again.

I believe that President Trump and his administration are teeing up a legal challenge to bring back impoundment. This is a very good thing for the taxpayers. We need to rein in spending and debt!

We saw spending explode during COVID, and Washington politicians left government spending way too high. We need to rein it in, it’s bankrupting our kids and grandkids.

The Senate ought to put Lindsey’s Russia sanctions bill on the floor, rename it the Lindsey Graham Russia Accountability Act, and pass it into law. That would be a fitting legacy for a man who ferociously loved this country.

Senate Democrats spent four years cheering on the weaponization of the Justice Department. Nearly 200 subpoenas. More than 400 Republican-aligned targets. The phone records of Republican senators secretly seized. Now they want to pretend they care about politicized justice.

Trump Accounts are Donald Trump’s New Deal. But instead of making Americans dependent on government, they will make every child in America a capitalist. Every child will be an owner. Every child will have a stake. Every child will see that America’s free enterprise system is not something happening far away in Washington or Wall Street — it is something they are part of. I authored Trump Accounts because ownership changes lives. It builds wealth. It teaches responsibility. It creates capitalists who believe in America. The first 250 years of this country were the greatest in the history of the world. With President Trump’s leadership, the next 250 can be greater still. Parents: go to and sign your kids up.

In the next 6 months, we could see new governments in Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba. If we end up with governments in those countries that want to be friends with America, that’d be the biggest geopolitical shift since the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Kids born this year will have a Trump Account opened for them and seeded with $1,000. If their parents or family contribute $5,000 a year at a 7% growth rate, each child will have $170,000 by the time they’re 18. 🇺🇸

I am, right now, calling on the House of Representatives to impeach Judge Boasberg. Mark my words: there will be accountability for these partisan zealots who sought to corrupt the DOJ and judiciary to attack their enemies.

Sen. Chuck Grassley just revealed that Jack Smith sent a subpoena to Verizon to tap my Senate office phone. This comes after learning that nearly 20% of Senate Republicans’ cellphones, including mine, were also subpoenaed. Arctic Frost is the Biden DOJ’s Watergate, and they need to be held accountable.

Starting on July 4th, every newborn in America will have their own “Trump Account” opened and seeded with $1,000. We’re creating a whole new generation of capitalists who will experience the benefit of compound growth. Thank you to President Trump for signing the Invest America Act into law. This will transform America. 🇺🇸

After the Holocaust, Swiss banks refused to return billions in stolen assets to Jews and deliberately hid records. Now banks have gone to court in an effort to silence discussions of these crimes by Jewish organizations demanding accountability. We have an obligation to correct these historic and current injustices, and I will keep fighting to do so.

More Christians are killed for their faith in Nigeria than anywhere else in the world. Nigerian officials have, unfortunately, been complicit in facilitating these atrocities.

In the last six months, I have seen more antisemitism on the right than at any time in my life. If we refuse to denounce it, it could destroy the Republican Party just as it has destroyed the Democrat Party.

Hundreds of millions of dollars from Minnesota have funded radical Islamic terror in Somalia. It’s so bad that the MN taxpayer is the largest source of funds for the Somali terror group Al-Shabaab. I’ll be chairing a Senate Judiciary hearing to fight this fraud.

Illegal aliens are fraudulently claiming welfare benefits to the tune of billions. Current law doesn’t make that a deportable offense, so I’ve authored legislation to do just that. If you steal from American taxpayers and you’re here illegally, you should be deported and permanently barred from reentry.

I’ve been pushing legislation to designate Nigeria a CPC and to impose sanctions on the Nigerian officials responsible. Thank you to President Trump for his leadership in imposing the designation, and more broadly, for fighting to stop the murder of Christians in Nigeria. Now we should take the next step and hold Nigerian officials accountable. I intend to be very explicit about who they are in the coming days and weeks.
