President Trump will return to Texas next Tuesday, Oct. 27th to rally with @KenPaxtonTX in Lubbock and Waco, per RNC. That's one week before Election Day as the president has said he'd return to the state to help Paxton get elected. Polls show the race as a toss-up.

After saying he'll go back to Texas "if it's necessary," President Trump on Friday said, "I'm going to Texas again. I went there twice, and since I've been there, you know, these rallies have changed the whole ball game."

President Trump nominated Wesley Hunt to serve as ambassador of Saudi Arabia.
My family has spent more than six decades wearing the uniform of this country.
My siblings and I graduated from West Point, served in combat, and at one point all three of us were deployed to Iraq at the same time.
I flew Apache helicopters over the skies of Baghdad. I later spent two years in Saudi Arabia serving as a diplomatic liaison officer. Every chapter of my life has reinforced the same conviction: America is worth fighting for.
Now, I have been called to serve our country once again.
Thank you President Trump for the honor. 🇺🇸
