Wellman: When I served in Iraq.. I heard about how Saddam Hussein divided them. Different sects fought each other. But you know -- Saddam and his family sat laughing at all of them. They divided them against each other and kept their power for 35 years. Does this sound familiar to anybody?

Thinking of a hero I knew and admired.

Memorial Day isn’t just about burgers and barbecues — it’s about honoring those who gave everything so we can live free. Take a moment to remember. Then go ahead and enjoy your weekend. That’s what they fought for adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/what-memor...

A 2-year old US Citizen was deported Friday to Honduras. “The judge on Friday scheduled a hearing for May 16, which he said was ‘in the interest of dispelling our strong suspicion that the Government just deported a U.S. citizen with no meaningful process.’” www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

The cruelty and the stupidity is the point
