In this week's The Bully Pulpit, a piece by one of my sons ...Ben.

Just saw a short video of Baby Abigail, born yesterday at 1.5 pounds. She's doing well...your prayers for her health are still needed.
After seeing her perfect little body, her opening her eyes...I am utterly destroyed thinking that every Democrat holding federal office or running for federal office supports killing these human beings out of convenience. There simply is no policy issue that rises above stopping this ongoing holocaust (a million babies a year in the US).
My last election prediction:
If Democrats win the House, we will experience the longest government shutdown in history as Democrats try to blackmail the Senate into restoring USAID, all the programs with which we're now finding massive fraud problems, AND seek guarantees that non-citizens will be counted in the 2030 census.
I worked in the first Trump Administration--I saw firsthand how shutdowns negatively impact US policy and basic government services.

One party supports the killing of a million unborn babies each year. The other is opposed to it. I will always vote for the latter party.
People who can't fathom voting Republican, suffer from TDS, who prioritize the fate of humans who are here illegally, who think Iran with a nuclear bomb is okay, who think American taxpayers should keep subsidizing NATO defense and EU countries' socialism, can't be bothered to think about the 1 million innocents killed by their pro-abortion policies each year. It is a level of derangement that exceeds that of Southerners who supported slavery to the very end.
Was just thinking over the weekend that I have to find old North to Alaska episodes to re-watch.
CONGRATS to the #DetroitLions on the Win and a game well played today.
CHEERS to all my ‘72 undefeated teammates and #MiamiDolphin fans on our now 54 year record! Cheers! 🍾🥃🚬🐬
#ProLife friends. Please pray for Baby Abigail, born this morning at 1.5 pounds, to the daughter of a close friend. Abigail and her medical team need our prayers.
I have a special saint for such intercessory prayers, Father Paul Faroh (@OLCprov):
"Dear Father Paul- My dear friend in life, now my intercessor in Heaven, please pray for Baby Abigail, that she might grow in health and spirit, and become a woman of God."
Another reason for mandatory military service by all Americans prior to entering college.
🚨🚨 JUST NOW: Deranged Abdul Supporter tackled a Jewish girl (@basedinmalibu) at free speech event.
She was SWIFTLY arrested, resisted and then said “I SHOULD HAVE KILLED HER!!” As she was loaded into the police vehicle.

2025 marked the largest annual decrease in violent crime since FBI estimates began in 1936 with:
– Murders falling 18.1%
– Rapes falling 7.6%
– Aggravated assaults falling 7.2%
– Robberies falling 18.5%
Have a blessed All Saints Day.
We have an infinite number of intercessors praying for our souls and that we might join them someday.

Esquire starts out with the premise that a conservative or MAGA supporter couldn't possibly care about conservation. @DougDeason is the type of person @ConservAmerica likes to work with on pragmatic, common-sense solutions to environmental, conservation, and energy issues.

I agree. Prediction markets are based on who is willing lay down money to bet. Bets are often placed on the underdog to seek a bigger payout. Conservatives do not tend to gamble away their hard-earned money. Thus, prediction markets are biased toward the desired outcomes of people easily separated from their money.
Q: (Do you think) prediction markets will take over polling as they are much more accurate because people have 'skin in the game?'

Oh…but we were told…
Breaking News: Obamacare premiums will rise by 13% next year, hitting middle-income people already struggling with health care costs. nyti.ms/4sCuytF
I met a young Fr. Sample at Mass in Rudyard, MI many years ago. My friend and I said then he was destined to be a bishop.
Archbishop Sample says none of the political parties in this country embody all of Catholic Social Teaching.
But the Democrat party embodies ideas that are specifically ANTI-Catholic social teaching; pro-abortion, pro-euthanasia, anti-family & pro-LGBT.
When we start with our Catholic faith, it's not hard to see which party's political platforms are more in line with church teaching.
So many friends in conservation don't understand a couple of things:
1. Conservation includes conserving life.
2. Their solutions to conservation are almost always anti-family and anti-human flourishing.
3. Being Pro-Life naturally includes being pro-clean water and air.
4. They harp that Republicans are anti-science because we don't agree with their draconian solutions to curb GHG. Yet, in the next breath, they argue against basic biology--they do not believe or cannot allow themselves to believe that a new human life is created at the moment of conception. They lose all credibility, then, throwing "but science" around.
I will never vote for a candidate who supports or does not oppose abortion. Period.
Montana Truths
Seth Bodnar is not an independent (he's a Democrat running from his party's baggage.)
Sam Forstag is not a working class laborer (he's a lobbyist from Portland, ME)
Vote @KurtAlme for US Senator and @aaronflint for US House of Representatives. Both true sons of the last best place in America.
Evidence that League of Conservation Voters doesn't really care about climate change (except how to weaponize it for progressive purposes):
Here are the following Republican members of the Climate Solutions Caucus that LCV has endorsed a Democrat opponent:
CA-22 Rep. Valadoa
MI-1 Rep. Bergman
PA-8 Rep. Bresnahan
AZ-6 Rep. Ciscomani
NJ-7 Rep. Kean
FL-22 Rep. Salazar
Here are the members of the Conservative Climate Caucus who have opponents endorsed by LCV:
IA-1 Rep. Miller-Meeks
VA-2 Rep. Kiggans
MI-4 Rep. Huizenga
WI-1 Rep. Steil
VA-1 Rep. Wittman
NY-17 Rep. Lawler
NC-11 Rep. Edwards
WI-3 Van Orden
Reminder, LCV and Sierra Club targeted 22 members of the Climate Solutions Caucus in 2018, wiped out the "Noah's Ark" caucus, and set it back 8 years.
LCV, and similarly Sierra Club, still haven't learned that America is evenly divided and it will take bipartisan policy and support to pass meaningful conservation legislation. They continue to target Republicans who are working on these issues--often risking their careers with our base--not to accomplish conservation policy, but to accomplish the broader progressive agenda.
It's shameful that they mislead tens of thousands of their members and donors.
@ACC_National @ConservAmerica
Today, the USA, under Republican leadership:
3rd Quarter GDP 3.4%
Highest Ever Average Household Income of $84,000
Zero illegal crossings of the border
Largest EVER decrease in violent crime
Iran nuclear threat neutralized
Trade policy leveling up American workers
11% Reduction in federal workforce
$260 billion in fraud uncovered.
USAID slush fund closed down
Gasoline prices will drop to lowest level in a decade by 2028.
The election should be a massive red wave. We're going to look back and see that TDS was about as bad as the Spanish Flu.

Today, on Theodore Roosevelt's 168th birthday, I recall the rare opportunity I had last October to join his great grandson, Ted Roosevelt IV, and Randy Newberg to hunt elk in Montana. I chose not to appear on camera to keep the focus on two great conservationists. It's beautiful scenery and important dialogue. youtube.com/watch?v=0n_1BAyY…
