I was terribly saddened to hear of the passing of my good friend Michael Bayham of Louisiana. We got to know each other through the Young Republican National Federation over many years, and he was a fine man. Mike truly loved America and history, and was always excellent company. He was a dedicated public servant, devoted to his constituents and the state of Louisiana. Louisiana was fortunate to have him as a citizen and as a legislator. My condolences to his family and friends. We’ve all lost a great one.
We were shocked and saddened this morning by the news of La. State Rep. Mike Bayham’s untimely passing. Mike has been a trusted friend of mine for more than 35 years, and he carried forward the same servant’s heart and love of country that he did when we campaigned together as undergraduates at LSU.   Majority Leader @SteveScalise and I reminisced this morning about our faithful friend, and how much he cared for his country and our conservative principles. Kelly and I will miss Mike, and we pray for all those across our state who are impacted by his passing. “Well done, good and faithful servant.” nola.com/news/politics/state…

My iPhone Duo is the greatest personal computing device I have ever owned and I love it totally and completely. It’s revolutionized my digital life completely in every imaginable way, and I’ve had no problems whatsoever.

Is Talafreako gonna tell his party to cool it on the promised investigations? Talarico is a weirdo AND a liar.

Today, Ann and I want to say thank you to every veteran who has worn America’s uniform. You stepped forward to serve our great nation. You sacrificed, spent time away from your family, and carried responsibilities many cannot imagine. We are deeply grateful to each and every one of you. The freedoms we enjoy as Americans are not free. Thank you and may God bless our veterans, their families, and our great nation. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

In the House Republican Conference meeting this morning, Washington State @RepBaumgartner exhorted his colleagues in the room not to leak what's going on in the meeting to reporters. He recommended they hold House Republican Conference meetings in a SCIF.

I still don’t know what the hell this is and I don’t ever want to know because I’m a man with taste.

NEWS: Senate Republicans approved a “sense of the conference” resolution at the end of their marathon closed-door sessions today about “maximizing” their remaining days in power. It includes a line on doing “everything humanly possible” to pass a reconciliation bill in the lame duck ... “It is the sense of the GOP Conference that we will maximize the 54 days we have with congressional majorities, to confirm every judicial nominee and every executive nominee that the conference approves of, to pass our core Republican priorities, and to do everything humanly possible to pass a reconciliation bill before Jan. 3.”

The policy was not too tough. There need to be more deportations, not fewer. The mistake was staging deportation theater with Kristi Noem out on ICE raids dressed like Tomb Raider. Don’t call so much attention to it. Don’t have government accounts on X posting spicy memes about it. Just go do it, efficiently and professionally. Is that option even being considered?

Wimp.
Trump endorses an amnesty deal with Democrats, saying immigration maximalists are on the “pretty far right” and suggesting that illegals who have been in the US for 10-15 years should have an opportunity to stay. Follow: @AFpost
