to help make this happen. This is a no-brainer to protect kids. Let’s get this done in all 50 states!
I understand not supporting him because you support Trump (or someone else). But I really don’t understand how honest conservatives can dislike Ron DeSantis from a human perspective, a policy perspective, or even from a leadership perspective.
Is it a Twitter thing? A following…

:
Mitch McConnell is doing his best to install more swamp creatures at key federal agencies.
But it's an election year. Donald Trump is the nominee. These should be his picks.
(Link at the end of the thread.)
The tragic irony in all of this is that Ron DeSantis is the closest thing to a Claremont-style “Red Caesar” presidential candidate the GOP will ever get. This is our window. If Trump wins the nom (and loses in 2024) it becomes way more likely the party returns to Romney.
As always, the most powerful case for Trump is the number of establishment conservatives still fervently insisting that the system has a high degree of integrity and if we can just get a sensible candidate everything will be fine
If DeSantis’ free trade comments from several years ago are fair game, so are Trump’s transgender beauty pageant comments.
If DeSantis can be lumped together w/ Paul Ryan/Jeb, then Trump can be lumped together w/ Caitlyn Jenner/Lady Maga.
It’s a campaign, people. Man up.
I love that
@GovRonDeSantis
signed a “social media age verification bill” into law and no one is even discussing the porn side of it. It’s a total afterthought. There is broad consensus on the issue.
I think we get this done nationally this decade.
One of the most impressive things about DeSantis and his team is that they simply NEVER take the bait from bad faith actors.
The discipline is incredible. Something for the rest of us to model.
Normal people cannot buy houses now. It's just not economically feasible.
There are hundreds of thousands of young couples getting married and hoping to have kids — with no realistic hope of ever owning a backyard.
Something is very wrong.

I understand there are different perspectives on this. Here’s mine. I want to win in November.
If we shut down, we get 10 days of grandstanding and lose 5 points on the generic ballot — and nothing changes.
We don’t have the leverage to get the bill we want.

One of the worst things happening to the GOP right now:
Out of fear of attack ads, Republican consultants are telling their candidates to stop putting issues pages up on their websites. Stop signing pledges. Stop committing to anything specific.
Apparently, voters are just…
I know Nate Hochman. He’s too loyal to say what really happened, but the “facts” that have been reported and repeated about him are just flat wrong.

Not a commentary on Trump but just his effect within GOP politics. He’s created a weird phenomenon where people like Guy who would normally support the Kasich/Sununu/Hogan wing of the party are supporting DeSantis instead (to beat Trump). Same w big donors. Won’t happen again.
Dana White backs Bud Light:

The European Union is about to roll out a "Screw America" tax to unfairly target and penalize U.S. exports under laughably inaccurate environmental pretexts.
Simply put — this is China calling in a favor to the EU, and Brussels happily doing the CCP's bidding. 1/
A freshman boy in New Hampshire capped off a dominating season by qualifying for the New England Championship meet. He displaced more deserving girls who never had a shot. This is happening everywhere, and there's no reason for NH not to outlaw it:

Kentucky is now the 13th state to protect kids from online porn.
Another HUGE win for families!
We are starting to see a massive backlash against the pervasiveness of legal sports gambling.
I think we are maybe a year away from this becoming political.
But to me that just seems like totally irrelevant criteria. There are some extremely obnoxious Trump influencers. I’m still gonna vote for the guy if he’s the nominee.
More gov't weaponization from Biden and his deep state cronies.
First, DOJ went after parents attending school board meetings.
Then, HHS went after foster families that don't buy into gender ideology.
Now, the Department of Education wants to shut down Christian colleges (!)

The Democratic presidential candidate said Sunday that he would support a national ban on abortion after the first three months of pregnancy if elected.

Things are moving quickly in the age verification fight.
But as of now, it appears we are waiting on governor's signatures in Georgia, Kansas, and Kentucky.
If those governors sign, we will be up to 14 states that have passed laws to protect kids from online pornography.
Some people are excited about this commitment, but I’m more excited about what he said a few sentences later:
"If Congress will work with me on doing that, we'll be able to reduce the size and scope of government… If Congress won't go that far, I'm going to use those agencies…
I have heard it’s an online influencer thing — that DeSantis stans are grating or whatever. I can kind of understand that. I’ve had to unfollow/mute/block a lot of accounts this primary!
What a year for conservatives!
✅ 22 states have passed laws to protect girls' sports.
✅ 19 states have passed laws to ban sex changes for kids in some capacity.
✅ 7 states have passed laws mandating age verification for porn websites.
And we're just getting started.💪

How many years till Sports Gambling addiction becomes a massive problem in the USA. The number of college aged (and younger) kids obsessed with gambling is way too high, and nearly every platform and league are promoting the *f* out of gambling to their fans.
How can the GOP appeal to minority voters?
It’s simple: lean into populist economics and fight the culture war.

Matt is right. The GOP realignment that started in 2016 has stalled in Congress w/ a few exceptions. Not great.
But here’s a white pill: a populist GOP presidential candidate that *wins* in 2024 would morph the party overnight. House/Senate Rs would have no choice but to follow.
By far the best evidence against a right-wing realignment is the way the House and Senate banking committee Rs treat consumer protection regulator

Most Republicans would have backed down. DeSantis didn't. He doubled down.
I'll never forget that.
I like betting on sports, but app gambling should be heavily regulated, if not banned entirely.
These companies are knowingly extracting huge sums from problem gamblers while they’re in the privacy of their own homes. That’s the business model.

The gambling industry is extremely powerful (especially in state capitols) but I imagine there would be a great deal of bipartisan support for a national anti-gambling expansion movement.
No slot machines in non-casinos.
No mobile app gambling.
No gambling ads on TV.
