Communism is the most barbaric, evil ideology the world has ever seen.
Today and every day, we mourn the tens of millions of innocent men, women, and children slain at the hands of this wicked ideology.

Today is the National Day for the Victims of Communism. Communism killed more than 100 million people in the 20th century.
This memorial, The Memorial to the Victims of Communism in Prague, powerfully captures what communism does to the human person.

For those consumed with anger, fear of the future, or despair over the last week, I give you needed perspective.
Thank you Scott, and Godspeed.
I'm 52 years old. I have terminal Stage IV esophageal cancer. And my life has become something I never could have imagined.
I have metastatic adenocarcinoma with signet-ring features. It's spread to my liver, lymph nodes, stomach and peritoneum. The surgery that was supposed to potentially save my life was aborted when they discovered it had already spread.
I've been through chemotherapy. I've had a stent shoved down my esophagus just to help me swallow. I've lived with a feeding tube. I've had to rethink something most people never give a second thought to: eating.
A cheeseburger. Pizza. A normal meal with my family. Things that used to be completely ordinary have become things I miss.
Every meal is a calculation. Calories. Protein. What can I swallow? What will hurt? What will stay down? How much can my stomach tolerate?
I deal with nausea, abdominal pain, strange sensations throughout my torso, swallowing difficulties, and the constant uncertainty of what is happening inside my body.
I monitor blood markers. I read CT scans. I research clinical trials. I look at experimental treatments and scientific papers, trying to find something, anything, that might give me more time.
And there's a particularly cruel part of terminal cancer that people don't always understand:
You can look relatively healthy. You can walk every day. You can laugh, read, have conversations, research things, and make plans. Meanwhile, you know there's an incurable disease growing inside you.
You become acutely aware that the future everyone else takes for granted is no longer guaranteed to you.
I have a wife. I have children. I have things I still want to experience, conversations I still want to have, and memories I still want to make.
I've even started leaving little handwritten messages around the house for my wife to find someday. Things I want her to know when I'm no longer here to tell her.
I'm not writing this because I want anyone's pity.
I'm writing it because terminal cancer is so much more than a diagnosis or a statistic. It's an entirely different existence. It's fighting for your life while simultaneously trying to figure out how to keep living it.
I don't know how much time I have. Neither does anyone else.
But I'm still here. Still walking. Still researching. Still looking for treatments. Still trying to eat. Still making plans.
And I'm not done fighting.
If you're healthy, don't take the ordinary things for granted. You have no idea how extraordinary they are until they become difficult or impossible.

Todavía se preguntan, por qué no quieren a los venezolanos? El venezolano es sonado en los Estados Unidos por las malas reputación y sus asesinatos, por eso los americanos no quieren a los venezolanos y de paso, la gente del Doral votó por los comunistas, No se quejen
ÚLTIMA HORA | EE.UU. confirma el arresto de un venezolano que amenazó con matar a Trump y fue detenido con un rifle AR-15 y dos pistolas cerca de la Casa Blanca acortar.link/vpwkoX

Si Estados Unidos no detiene la nacionalización de ciudadanos de otros paises con ideología socialista en su psique (como las plagas venezolanas que votaron por demócratas) estos terminarán de destruir la cultura de la libertad que hay en ese gran país. Como venezolano siento vergüenza de esas malditas plagas paisanos que votaron por los demócratas. No se merecen ese gran país que es Estados Unidos – at Panama

Rural conservatives in deep-blue states are effectively governed without consent. In New York, Republicans win most counties yet still lose statewide by 20 points because dense urban and suburban voters in New York City and its suburbs cast the decisive ballots and vote overwhelmingly Democratic. The result is that rural and upstate communities pay the taxes, live under the regulations, and absorb the costs set by politicians they consistently reject. Same story in California and Illinois. Population density has become a veto over the rest of the state.

“The Stock Market suffered one of the Worst Days in History based on the results of the Election. Such a sad thing to watch! It took so much work to get us to a level that no one has ever seen before, and then this. Your 401(k)s have, therefore, dropped. Remember, it wasn’t Republicans, it was Dumocrats...”

She said it perfectly! Accountability doesn't end when the election is over. That's when it begins!
The election is over, and now it's time to deliver on those campaign promises. It shouldn't be about political power or going after President Trump. It should be about helping the American people.
So now we have expectations. Gas below $2 a gallon, little to no property taxes, an end to income taxes, and groceries that don't cost nearly $100 for five items. Families deserve to afford their homes, pay their bills, and put food on the table without struggling.
You spent your campaigns blaming President Trump while promising voters you had the answers. Well, now the ball is in your court! You don't get to sit back, do nothing, and continue blaming him. It's time to deliver!
And stop expecting hardworking taxpayers to fund every new promise of free programs and handouts. Nothing is free when taxpayers are footing the bill. We deserve accountability for every dollar spent. Don't forget who you work for! You work for us, the American people!
You demanded accountability from President Trump. Now hold yourselves to that same standard.
We are fed up with empty promises, political games, and watching hardworking Americans struggle while those in office continue pointing fingers instead of delivering results.
No more finger-pointing. No more excuses.
So let's go! Deliver the results, and let's see what you've got! 🇺🇸

Mr. Vice-President,
Please allow me to present a different perspective.
The problem was not the Iran War. It was the cease fire.
If you start a war, you need to win it and finish it – otherwise don’t start it.
This war should have been over six months ago, with the Strait of Hormuz wide open and oil flowing. The second and third tiers of Iranian leadership should have been destroyed, and we should have supported the pro-western forces who could have taken leadership. We stood on the brink of a new, more peaceful Middle East - and then we blinked. We had a chance not only to deny Iran nuclear weapons, but to get rid of the world’s biggest supporter of terrorism.
Instead, we had a cease fire, which was followed by months of will we or won’t we finish the job. Every day was a different message. There still is. Is the war over? Is it about to begin? No one knows. There is confusion and inconsistency.
In June 2025, America was not involved. This was an Israel vs Iran issue.
No one forced the United States to attack Iran then, or in February of 2026. It was a decision made by President Trump. In my opinion, it was the right decision.
Once the decision was made, we should not have stopped until the regime fell. But instead, you negotiated a cease fire that didn’t last, didn’t work and left us in no man’s land, with higher prices and our troops still deployed.
Our troops could have been home, the Navy returned to its bases, a peaceful regime in place , new alliances forged, and gas prices below $3.00 a gallon.
No, Mr. Vice President. It’s not the war. It’s the so-called cease fire.
One of the things the data analysts on our side obsessed over was "composition"—whether the electorate looked close enough to 2024 for Republicans to win. And despite polls that showed a Democrat blowout, the data kept on telling us the same story: in some states turnout was merely OK, in other states it was downright amazing, and in no state was it catastrophic. There was a genuine sense of optimism on our team: our people were showing up.
So, I asked the smartest data guy I know, does that mean we're going to shock the world? "No," he told me. "We might do better than the polls suggest. But the data is telling us that a lot of Trump/Vance 2024 voters are pissed and planning to vote for the other guys. Our voters are turning out, but they may not vote for us."
Well, that looks prophetic now. Our voters did show up. In Florida, for example, the electorate was 9 points more Republican than Democrat, just a couple points worse than 2024. Undoubtedly there were places we could have done better on turnout. But the main problem is not turnout. The main problem is that many people who voted for Trump/Vance in 2024 voted for Democrats in 2026.
There will be a lot of infighting and arguing over what happened and why that is. One of the pollsters I really respect told me that our economic messaging wasn’t sharp enough down the stretch. I’m sure that’s true.
But the real reason we lost is obvious to almost everyone.
Another pollster—one of the smartest people I know in politics, told me yesterday we’d lose the generic ballot by 13 points. I felt negative going into Tuesday, but even I was shocked by this. In his polling, he saw that a lot of Trump 2024 voters were angry and planning to vote for Democrats. He asked those voters who had abandoned us what would cause them to come back on our team. The top four answers, accounting for nearly all of the responses were:
1) End the war
2) Focus on cost of living/inflation
3) Put America First
4) Change our relationship to Israel
Our voters showed up. And the above four reasons are why many of them voted for Democrats. This is according to a pollster who nailed the results. While many spent Monday attacking Rachel Campos Duffy for calling for a diplomatic resolution to the conflict, it turns out her political advice was sound. (She’s also a great person.)
In the next few months, there's going to be a lot of gaslighting. Expect to hear any number of establishment politicians say the solution to our woes is amnesty. I'm open to the idea that we should change enforcement—by focusing more on businesses that hire illegal labor, for instance. But anyone pushing amnesty is lying to you.
The reason we lost is the war. The president himself said so last night.
If you'd like to argue it was worth it, that losing the Senate for the next 6 years was worth it, then do so. Argue it was a worthwhile cost to pay. Agree or disagree, that's at least honest.
But everyone knows why we lost. And any honest conversation about where we go from here must start there.
I remain hopeful about our country. To the people who are pissed off and want to say, “I told you so”: you’re right, you did tell us so. Take that energy into electing Republicans who share your worldview. To the people who are just pissed at the results, you should be. Let’s take that anger and get back to the work of saving our country.
