History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.

ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about? VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

Here is my response to Donald Trump’s latest malicious lies:

Here is some truth: Putin invaded Ukraine. NATO is the most successful military alliance in history. Since 1945, American leadership has ensured freedom and security for ourselves and millions of others around the world.

My response to Donald Trump’s efforts to block the Special Counsel from issuing his final report:

My response to Trump’s remarks in the Capitol Visitor’s Center:

In an era that looked as if it might be defined by an American man of depraved cruelty, corruption & shame, what a magnificent thing the Catholic Church has done. The elevation of an American man of goodness, grace, humility, mercy & faith to the Throne of St. Peter is moving & momentous for us all.

Trump - with his devotion to Putin, abandonment of Ukraine, and lies about history- is the antithesis of everything Ronald Reagan stood for. He is aligning America with the enemies of the very freedom that generations have fought and died to defend.

Donald Trump, JD Vance, and Elon Musk have made clear who they are. Only fools - or Kremlin tools - would abandon NATO, side with Russia, and demand Ukraine surrender in the face of Putin’s brutal aggression.

My statement on the Special Counsel’s final report:

Hey Brendan "we can do this the easy way or the hard way" Carr:

Last year in National Rifle Association v. Vullo, the Supreme Court unanimously reaffirmed this fundamental principle of our constitutional republic:

Rarely has so much ignorance & ahistorical BS been crammed into a single tweet. I know JD Vance & Donald Trump are busy surrendering to a KGB butcher, abandoning the cause of freedom, & destroying the security of America & her allies, but they'd do well to spend some time actually studying history.

JD Vance Goes Ballistic on Conservative Historian: 'Moralistic Garbage'

JD Vance Goes Ballistic on Conservative Historian: ‘Moralistic Garbage’

Vance unleashed a blistering response to Niall Ferguson, who invoked George H.W. Bush to condemn Trump's Ukraine stance.

Putting the finishing touches on this year’s Christmas tree. Confident in the words of Abraham Lincoln: “This nation is worth fighting for to secure such an inestimable jewel.”

“Government officials cannot attempt to coerce private parties in order to punish or suppress views that the government disfavors."This doesn't just constrain Democrats. It applies to all officeholders, including you. You took an oath to the Constitution not to Donald Trump.

Putin will pocket Trump’s naive concessions and demand much more. Appeasement makes a wider war more likely, not less.

History will not be kind to those who are helping him, especially those who call themselves Reagan Republicans while they pretend not to see what’s happening.

Happy Birthday to the world’s greatest dad. In January 2021, he said to me: “Defend the Republic, Daughter.”

I will, Dad. Always.

Together with our allies, we defeated the Soviet Union - an empire so evil it had to build gulags and walls to keep its own people in. Destroying America’s alliances and abandoning the cause of freedom is morally and strategically indefensible.

Start here with Ronald Reagan: “Perhaps you and I have lived too long with this miracle to properly be appreciative. Freedom is a fragile thing and it's never more than one generation away from extinction.

It is not ours by way of inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. And those in world history who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again.”
