“No man can be a competent legislator who does not add to an upright intention and a sound judgement a certain degree of knowledge of the subjects on which he is to legislate. A part of this knowledge may be acquired by means of information which lie within the compass of men in private as well as public stations.” -James Madison, #Federalist53, #OnThisDay in 1788

You're playing into their game by using the language they prefer instead of the truth. Palestinian is a regional term. Like Appalachian in my area. It's not a race or tribe. The first step in problem solving is to properly identify the problem, which in this case, is Arabs acting in the name of Islam. The violence of Oct. 7, where rape was used as a weapon, was done by Arab Muslims. Arab Muslims already have more than enough countries. #JordanisPalestine. But they claim Palestinians don't. When the need for a new country called Rapesville or Palestine is described accurately as another Arab Muslim country, 4 of which already border Israel, not to mention all the others in the region, then it sounds absurd to say Arab Muslims need another country. But claiming Palestinians don't have a country called Palestine misrepresents what is happening in an attempt to gain sympathetic support. Golda Meir never bought the new usage of Palestinian. She saw the rebranding of it and understood how it would be used against Israel. Adopting the term helps spread the brand. We should reject the false premise behind it and use the accurate term, which is Arab Muslim.

And yet there are some who believe that another Arab Muslim state is needed at the expense of the world's only Jewish state. I pray a new country called Rapesville or Palestine or Rapesburg is never established. We must #StandWithIsrael to defeat Arab Muslims.
Palestinians killed his wife, both of his daughters, his brother, and even his dog. They starved and tortured him for 491 days. They paraded and humiliated him at their last opportunity, forcing him to read lines in some sadistic show they put on. Eli Sharabi didn’t know what happened to his family until he was released today. His only relatives left are his mom and sister.

@SenateDems Don't be proud of a childish temper tantrum. This is really embarrassing. That stunt did nothing, you still lost. Expect Republicans to share this a lot during #Election2026, so thanks for the cannon fodder. Next time, just follow the rules.

How childish is this? Democrats force the chair to enforce the rules on each one of them. What a clown show. Democrats don't want to be taken seriously when they pull stunts like this. #Repealthe17thAmendment
Democrats are throwing a literal temper tantrum on the Senate floor during the vote to confirm @russvought as OMB Director

@wusa9 The obvious solution for Boy Scouts is remove girls and bring back God. The values taught by the Boy Scouts before this gender and DEI craziness are timeless and should be restored.

@JewishWarrior13 @benshapiro Still sounds awful. Not our responsibility, we don’t want it. Let Egypt have that crater.

Recruitment problems ended as soon as it was clear that the military would no longer cater to men in dresses. No one is surprised.
BACK IN BUSINESS: The U.S. Army enlisted nearly 350 soldiers every day in December 2024, the month after Trump's election victory, and became the most productive December for the military branch in 15 years. More details.

“In republican government, the legislative authority necessarily predominates. The remedy for this inconveniency is to divide the legislature into different branches; and to render them, by different modes of election and different principles of action, as little connected with each other as the nature of their common functions and their common dependence on the society will admit.” -James Madison, #Federalist51, #OnThisDay in 1788
