TWEETS OF NOTE
(@SteaknShake) In 2025 we embraced MAHA to great effect. We will make 2026 a consequential year for MAHA too. A burger with fries is part of the American tradition. It is our job to make sure both are made in traditional ways with natural ingredients. The coming year will be one to look forward to on our MAHA journey! Tweet.
(@Cernovich) It’s always interesting to head over to the “DC political insiders” accounts. They really think they are kingmakers. In some ways their lack of awareness is admirable. I remember these same people all saying Trump couldn’t win in 2016! Tweet.
