Illinois Democratic Congresswoman Delia Ramirez introduced legislation to dismantle the Department of Homeland Security and abolish ICE. Democrats keep treating immigration enforcement as the problem. Here in the Free State of Florida, we know the people trafficking drugs and people are the problem. Vote Republican to keep ICE doing its job. nypost.com/2026/10/13/us-new…

Yesterday, I visited JM Diamond Farm and Paul Griswold Farm in Santa Rosa County to survey storm damage and see the peanut and cotton operations helping to feed and clothe our country. Remember to watch out for farm equipment on the backroads. The debris stacked along county roads makes it harder for the tractors to create space. Stay Alert. Stay Alive!

Your vote deserves leaders with the backbone to defend it. The DOJ announced election-related charges against 48 noncitizens, including six in Florida. We have to back investigators, give prosecutors the resources to make their cases and demand accountability for anyone who broke the law. Free and fair elections are the bedrock of our Republic.

A violent repeat offender gets released. Someone else gets hurt. Then we hear they were “known to authorities.” If the system knew they were dangerous, why were they free? Their second chance shouldn’t come at the expense of someone else’s life. Vote red. Put public safety first.

The Pentagon and Lockheed Martin announced a proposed 10-year agreement covering 850 F-35s, plus parts, upgrades and maintenance. Before signing, nail down the costs, delivery deadlines and consequences for falling short. A defense contract is a commitment to our troops, funded by taxpayers. Both deserve results. investors.lockheedmartin.com…

AOC is campaigning with Senate candidates Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan and Troy Jackson in Maine to put more socialists in Washington. Every seat they win means more influence over your taxes, spending and freedom. Take them seriously. Make them defend their agenda. Get out and vote to stop this radical movement.

A 15-year-old has been arrested in connection with the shooting near FAMU that injured 12 people. This is heartbreaking on every level. Families are hurting, lives have been changed, and a young person is now facing serious consequences. We have a responsibility to teach our kids right from wrong, that actions have consequences, and that violence is never the answer. I commend the Tallahassee Police Department for their swift action and stand with law enforcement as they continue their investigation.

A parent asking what their child is being taught is doing their job. Schools should be able to answer without getting defensive or making families jump through hoops. Parents shouldn’t need a lawyer or a public records fight to find out what’s happening in their kid’s classroom.

USDA announced approximately $50.5 million in farm safety net and conservation payments for Florida producers and landowners. Eligible producers: check with your local Farm Service Agency office about payments and enrollment. Our farmers have bills to pay and another crop to get in the ground. fsa.usda.gov/news-events/new…

If you're a veteran, you have likely led teams, maintained equipment and delivered under pressure. Those skills have value. The VA is highlighting transportation careers that put military experience to work. Help veterans get the credentials and connections to get hired. Hiring a veteran isn’t charity. It’s a smart investment. news.va.gov/150458/transport…

New Yorkers elected a mayor. What they got was a socialist propaganda machine. The New York Post reports Mamdani’s team has delayed government meetings to brainstorm “social media videos.” Socialist promises might get applause online. They don’t balance a budget or keep communities safe. VOTE Republican. nypost.com/2026/10/22/us-new…

My heart goes out to the victims and families impacted by the shooting near FAMU. Knowing children were among those injured makes this even more heartbreaking. Please join me in praying for their recovery and the entire Tallahassee community.

To the surprise of no one, China is using fishing boats with trained, state-backed crews alongside coast guard ships to prepare for a potential conflict. Beijing is hiding military ambitions behind civilian vessels while bullying Taiwan, Japan and the Philippines. miamiherald.com/news/nation-…

Florida’s new figures show fentanyl-caused deaths fell nearly 60% from 2023 to 2025. Fewer families getting that devastating phone call. Thank you to the officers, investigators and first responders fighting this daily. Keep breaking up trafficking networks, prosecuting dealers and getting people into treatment. Don’t let up. flgov.com/eog/news/press/202…

Our troops depend on reliable equipment and the parts behind it. We cannot rely on adversarial counties for critical military supply. Chipmaker TSMC is exploring alternatives to Chinese-controlled materials in its factory equipment. A shortage could disrupt production of chips used in defense systems. Military supply chains should run through American factories and dependable allies. reuters.com/world/china/tsmc…

This is why Florida must keep Republican leadership: our job is to make this state a place where businesses invest, employers hire and families can build a future. You can raise the tax rate. You can’t make people stay and pay it. Bernie Sanders backs California’s proposed billionaire wealth tax, while two Stanford economists warn it could drive residents away and bring in less revenue than it promises. Get out and vote like our future depends on it. It does. cbsnews.com/news/california-…

A radicalized Texas teenager allegedly plotted to assassinate Congressman Keith Self after consuming ISIS propaganda online. The FBI stopped him. Good. Anyone who plots murder for ISIS should be hunted down, arrested and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. We will not wait for an American family to bury one of our own before we act. nypost.com/2026/10/22/us-new…

People fled communism because they lived it. Shortages. Fear. The knock on the door… DSA says it’s supposed to work this time. I’ll trust someone who escaped it over a politician peddling it. It always turns out the same. Vote for American values, not socialist manifestos.

You don’t owe anyone an explanation for why you need the Second Amendment. It is not a loophole to be bargained away. The left addresses crime by defunding cops and punishing law-abiding Americans—taking their Gun Rights. That creates a Gangster Paradise. Here in Florida, we put criminals in jail and protect your Second Amendment. 🇺🇸
