I spoke with @Michele_Tafoya. She is going to be the next Senator from Minnesota. Her opponent, @peggyflanagan, spent years claiming she “graduated Phi Beta Kappa,” and was a double major. Turns out she wasn't being truthful
#WhatElseIsSheLyingAbout?.🤔
Minnesota’s Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Peggy Flanagan said she “graduated Phi Beta Kappa,” but records raise questions about the claim. 🔗 on.wsj.com/4ByFoFc

This week, Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy announced a $250M award to complete the Port MacKenzie rail extension—connecting Fairbanks and the Interior directly to a port by rail! I've pushed relentlessly for this investment for over two years. This is huge for the Valley, the Interior, and our entire state! – at Alaska, USA

CNN’s @DavidJUrban slams the Vivek Ramaswamy campaign ad with Democrat Amy Acton’s estranged mom, who’s been accused of abusing her as a child...
“This makes Willie Horton look like a Hallmark movie, right? It’s just really bad. Who — I’m not sure, when you — when you screen that, you think like, oh, we’re going to pick up these folks. This is the target demographic we’re going after in this. If anything, it makes. Amy Acton — you feel worse for the woman when you find out the backstory? Initially, when you see it, you think, oh, wow, it’s pretty bad. Her mom is saying this, and then you read the notes — now, everyone’s heard about it — but you say to yourself, wow, that poor woman went through all this as a kid. I think that makes her it makes it makes her more relatable. And so, it’s — I think it’s backfired completely. And — and whoever — whoever did it, it shouldn’t be proud of it. They should be ashamed that they were — they didn’t think ahead three steps: If we do this, this is what the reaction is going to be.”
“I’m not defending Amy Acton. She may be a terrible politician. There’s plenty of things you can disagree about with her on policy. You know, I wouldn’t vote for her, but nonetheless, she’s going to be more compassionate because of this ad.”

"This is absolutely the most outrageous, indefensible ad I've ever seen in my life," @mmckinnon says of a Ramaswamy ad featuring Amy Acton's estranged mother. "And there should be some accountability for it."
"This makes Willie Horton look like a Hallmark movie," @DavidJUrban adds.

🇺🇸 Robert E. Lee had to deal with another cadet’s discipline as superintendent of West Point, too. Philip Sheridan.
Sheridan had been suspended for a year in 1851 after threatening a classmate with a bayonet on the parade ground and later fighting him in front of the barracks.
He returned in August 1852 just as Lee took charge and spent his final year as a cadet under Lee.
Lee’s stricter leadership helped keep Sheridan out of trouble his senior year. He graduated in 1853, ranking 34th in a class of 52.
In April 1865 Sheridan’s cavalry would cut off Lee’s retreat west of Appomattox Court House.
🇺🇸 Robert E. Lee almost had to expel cadet John Bell Hood while he was superintendent of West Point.
Hood struggled with discipline throughout his time at the Academy. In his senior year he accumulated 196 demerits, only four short of the 200 that would have forced his expulsion under the regulations.
Lee reduced him in rank and disciplined him after he made an unauthorized visit to Benny Havens’ tavern. After that incident Hood recorded no further demerits for the rest of the year. He graduated in 1853, ranking 44th in a class of 52. Classmates knew him as “Sam.”
Years later, as a Confederate general, Hood commanded the Texas Brigade in the Army of Northern Virginia. Lee came to regard him as one of his most reliable and aggressive commanders, and the brigade itself became one of the most celebrated units in the army.

#NHSEN — John Sununu in a new TV ad: “The way Chris Pappas tells it, I’m President Trump’s long-lost son. I’ve never even met the man."
I’m seeing headlines from the Left like “Trump calls Slotkin a lowlife for suggesting young people not work for him.”
That framing is shamefully dishonest.
Slotkin didn’t merely suggest young people avoid working for Trump. She advocated jailing Republicans to frighten an entire generation away from conservative politics.
That is gang-style intimidation from a sitting United States senator. Slotkin should apologize.

Even CNN’s own Harry Enten admits Republicans only need to beat the polls by about 3% to hold the House. Now I’m not saying it’s a lock, but we have watched Republicans out perform the polling again and again in recent cycles.
NEW: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy tells @kilmeade he would accept a peace deal that freezes the war along the current frontlines, calling it a realistic way to stop the fighting.
He says Ukraine would then seek security guarantees from President Trump and European allies to ensure peace and security.
"We call it ceasefire or stop killing like President Trump called it. Freeze and stop. And of course this is minimum what we need from Russia today." | @foxandfriends

- Putin is a war criminal. The Russians commit war crimes as a matter of course and the fact that they abducted our fellow citizen and sent him to a penal colony notorious for abuse is more evidence.
- Russia wants to push two narratives: that it is reasonable and that its military success is inevitable. Both are false.

Democrats should be careful what they wish for. Winning the House gives them a messaging platform and a pile of bills that die in the Senate.
Winning the Senate means talk of killing the filibuster, abolishing the debt ceiling, and packing the Court. That fight makes 2028 much harder for them.
