The Pro-Life movement has to be for:
•affordable adoption
•accessible adoption for infertile families and LGBT families
•comprehensive sex ed
•accessible, affordable birth control
It’s not enough to ban abortion. We have to make it so women don’t feel they need one.
There are 2,000,000+ infertile couples hoping to adopt newborns, but a severe lack of children because they are being killed before birth.
We must reject the violence of abortion & embrace the life-affirming gift of adoption.

Today, I learned
1) I have a “room temperature IQ”. That’s actually a brilliant insult and I love it.
2) it’s somehow become courageous to criticize a leader, which seems very unamerican.
3) there’s some very good and very bad people on this site.
And now, I mute twitter.
Today on my twitter: leftists who follow me because I’m a conservative against Trump discover that I am still, in fact, a conservative, and become very unhappy
I was a Clemson Student that year.
I didn’t vote for Rena Haley, but she cared about the student body. Most importantly, there wasn’t a “conservative” or “liberal” way to ensure better lighting on the east campus.
Rena Haley isn’t on the ballot. Leave her out of it.
When Nikki Haley’s daughter tried to run as Student Body President at Clemson University, students discovered she held very liberal positions on many subjects.
We supported the conservative candidate who beat the Governors daughter. Embarrassing for the Haleys for many reasons.
I did not have “tweet from Eric Swalwell” on my 2020 bingo card.
There’s a whole lot we don’t agree on, but I am very grateful for your kind words of support.
I just watched Will, chair of South Carolina College Republicans, on
@MSNBC
. I was moved by his resolve that a U.S. president should stand up for American troops against Russia.
@realDonaldTrump
hasn’t, he said. This is what courage looks like.
Hey Soledad, when Trump came down the escalator, *I wasn’t old enough to drive*
I’ve been publicly against him for a long time. The video was just the most recent, most prominent thing.
❌treat every weapon as if it is loaded
❌keep your finger off the trigger until you’re ready to shoot
❌Never point your weapon at anything you don’t intend to destroy
❌know your target, backstop, and beyond
Something about the state being able to take the life of its own citizens during peacetime seems very tyrannical to me.
It’s also the farthest thing from being pro-life.

I shared my opposition to Rep. Cezar McKnight’s uniform bill today.
Rather than invest in uniforms to conceal poverty, lets invest in education to fix poverty.
If anyone asks me why I’m not voting for Trump, I’m pointing to this weekend, where
-the admin knew and did nothing about Russia & the Taliban putting bounties on our soldiers
-the admin selling faulty covid antibody tests
-the president retweeted a “white power” video

As
@henrymcmaster
likes to say, “I like it, I love it, I want some more of it!”
I want a guy who runs for president on the most niche issues.
-abolishing daylight savings
-aesthetic public buildings
-restoring the range of the American Chestnut tree
-serious bilateral relations with Tonga
-more funding for small town parades & traditions
Watching people wish self harm on Brad Parscale shows how degraded our politics are. Like the guy or don’t like the guy, but he’s a human being. A politics, a culture, that doesn’t respect the dignity of life (or only does when that life fits their mold) is unfathomably dangerous
*maybe* the problem is that we’ve started basing our politics on people, not principles.
People will always find a way to let you down. Principles, when true, will not.
It’s 2038, you visit your kid at Clemson. Dabo Swinney has been elected Governor. There is still no parking, and 287 speed bumps have been added on Perimeter Road.
Some exciting news: I’m running for the Kershaw County Soil and Water Commission this fall.
As a farmer, hunter, and outdoorsman, I know that when we take care of the land, the land takes care of us.
If you live in Kershaw County, I’d appreciate your support and your vote.
Maryland's Republican Gov. Larry Hogan, rumored to be eyeing a run for the White House in 2024, said the GOP needs to be a “bigger tent party" after President Donald Trump leaves office.
Ben Shapiro throws a tantrum about calling Jill Biden "Doctor": "If you're not impressed by Harvard Law then you certainly should not be impressed by a degree from University of Delaware in education...When I was at Harvard Law, an actual prestigious law school"
This is despicable. Even if you don’t like someone’s job, or you don’t think the job is essential, it’s not right to degrade their humanity and attempt to make them feel lesser than they are.
In my Conservatism, everyone matters. Everyone is essential.
Went through TSA with my
#MAGA
hat on to remind everyone that their jobs are disposable and they're non-essential. Their paychecks come from someone else's paychecks. What a world we live in where we accept that.

Well folks, I’ll be spending the next 38 days at Fort Knox for Army ROTC advanced camp. I’d appreciate your prayers.
Never fear, the subpar tweeting will start back when I return.
Justice Ginsburg was a lion of jurisprudence. When I read her opinions, I found my own suppositions and conclusions challenged and deepened. I have so much respect for her, and she will be missed.
She, her career, and her character are all worthy of admiration.
She was a law professor. She is also, ya know, a judge. She knows the first amendment.
Anyone who’s ever spoken, played music, or otherwise performed in front of a group knows this moment.
Stop making mountains out of molehills.
1) no one reached out to ask for comment on this.
2) a former CR from years ago hacked the account and locked current leadership out of it.

Republicans must support rebels like this.
I don’t get the messaging here. This is, after all, Trump’s America.
You don’t get to be the law and order candidate if you aren’t acting like a law and order incumbent.
Yesterday, I took a final that I needed to make an 80% on. Today I’m taking a final I need to make a 4.8% on. Yesterday, I felt like a mad scientist trying to meet a deadline. Today I feel like Jimmy Buffett.
“Christian conservatives” who spend all their time insulting people on Facebook and calling the left horrible names really baffle me.
Treat people with kindness. If you’d punish your child for a kind of behavior, you should avoid it too.
George HW Bush was a war hero. He was shot down in the pacific. He led this country through the Cold War and the gulf war.
If that’s a “wimp,” well maybe we need more of that
ABC store clerk: proof of age please.
Me: When I was in college my dorm had a single pay phone that I used to make collect calls home.
Clerk: Party on, Garth.
It’s frustrating to watch so many Christians nakedly use religion to political ends while claiming to do the opposite.
Let’s make this clear: Christ did not sanction one political position.
George HW Bush stood up to Richard Nixon when he was chair of the RNC, and his doing so led to Nixon’s resignation.
His party loyalty wasn’t an end in itself. It was a means to the ultimate end, serving his country.
“Red state actors have to start engaging on these issues,” said Mr. Galloway... “But we haven’t been. We’ve ceded them entirely to the left.”
Check out what I had to say to the
@nytimes
about why conservatives should care about climate change
This seems self evident, but it’s become incredibly clear to me over the last few months.
Social media is absolutely toxic. And that’s how it was designed. That’s the business model.
The number of people I know who went to the beach after everything baffles me.
It’s remarkably selfish. It’s real disregard for family, community, and your friends.
“If I get corona, I get corona. At the end of the day, I'm not gonna let it stop me from partying”: Spring breakers are still flocking to Miami, despite coronavirus warnings.
Being Pro-Life means:
• opposing abortion
• opposing the death penalty
• opposing euthanasia
• fighting for criminal justice reform
• improving healthcare
• improving education
Let’s stop limiting the life debate to just one thing.
I was very outspoken in my opposition to Trump last year. I’m still strongly opposed to the nutty MAGA wing.
But if Glenn Youngkin(!!) is too conservative for you, you can’t claim to be a conservative or a Republican anymore.
Check in on your friends. The holidays can be hard for folks who don’t have a family, who can’t be with the people they love, who lost people, and a thousand other things. Be kind. Text people and let them know you care.
@soledadobrien
Thank you for your response. I can’t answer for what others did, but it’s clear that many have been afraid to speak up. That doesn’t make it right, but my hope was to encourage them to do so now.
The best time plant a tree was 10 years ago. The second best time is today.
The more I read about ACB, the more I learn that my hesitancy with her was unfounded. She’s a solid, textualist judge, and I’m glad she’s been appointed.
Two things are true:
1) if you have a PhD, I’m going to call you Doctor. It’s respect.
2) if you get overly mad that someone doesn’t, you’re probably not too fun to be around anyway.
I am very grateful that His Majesty chose not to televise the anointing. There are some things too sacred, too holy to expose to the vulgarity of a global broadcast.
As Zadok the Priest plays, we are reminded that this ritual has existed basically since Solomon. Wow.
