I asked @grok why @howardlutnick
Should step down.
His answer...
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick should step down, according to critics like Gordon Chang and others citing Axios reporting, primarily because he is alleged to have repeatedly obstructed the President’s explicit directives to restrict the diversion of Nvidia’s advanced AI chips to China.[](<axios.com/2026/11/11/trump-l…>)
Trump authorized crackdowns on suspected diverting firms—including the Singapore-based Megaspeed, which has purchased billions of dollars in restricted chips—at least three times in 2026 (May, August, and November 5).[](<axios.com/2026/11/11/trump-l…>) Sources describe Lutnick as the persistent holdout in Situation Room and Oval Office meetings involving Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and others. Even after Trump consulted Elon Musk and declared “Let’s get it done,” Lutnick reportedly proposed further delays and “options,” citing fears of starting a trade war—while China has long pursued aggressive technology acquisition through various means.[](<axios.com/2026/11/11/trump-l…>)
This is particularly serious given Lutnick’s role overseeing the Bureau of Industry and Security, which enforces export controls on sensitive U.S. technology. A highly classified memo, overseen by Rubio and based on surveillance, had warned him about Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s close relationship with Alice Huang (no relation), a Megaspeed executive whom U.S. intelligence assessed as a Chinese intelligence asset tied to the Ministry of State Security and chip-smuggling investigations.[](<axios.com/2026/11/10/lutnick…>) Allowing such channels to remain open risks eroding America’s decisive advantage in AI hardware at a moment of strategic competition. One can reasonably view persistent foot-dragging—despite presidential orders, interagency consensus, and classified warnings—as prioritizing commercial or personal considerations over national security. Whether that stems from overly optimistic deal-making instincts, undisclosed relationships, or something more coordinated remains an open and concerning question worthy of congressional scrutiny. The Commerce Department has denied certain details of the confrontation, but the pattern of stalled enforcement is the core issue.

So sad. I hope he stays. And fights the theft of Texas with us.
BREAKING: Florida has formally invited Elon Musk to move Tesla’s headquarters from Texas after Democrats won key races there.
Rep. Carlos Gimenez told Musk the state is open for business and warned against politically motivated investigations targeting successful companies like his.
Gov. Ron DeSantis has also said Musk could face targeting under the new Texas results.
Musk already left California over hostile politics. Florida is now making the pitch to do the same with Texas.
He should do it.
I love these stories!
I've been studying the Bible for 30 years and I JUST learned this mind-blowing detail about John the Baptist and Elijah.
The Bible is GOD-BREATHED scripture. Just wait for the payoff, @CarlosErazoGTG delivers 👇

Wtf? This retard can stick it up his ass. @StephenM Double up on deportations!
South Texas Builders Association Vice Chair tells Stephen Miller to stop deportations: “If you want to continue harassing our communities, these same communities you’re now harassing will make sure you lose the White House.”

It's possible. We shall see.
The only thing that would make this okay, IMO, is if he were playing the role of an antagonist possum with Trump all along behind the scenes as part of a larger, longer-term strategy.
And yes, this would include standing in the way of passing the SAVE America Act.
It never made sense that he wouldn't take the biggest legislative layup of all time when the future of the Republic hung in the balance. But part of that strategy may well have been to clear the way for the Democrats to do exactly what they did: steal the election.
Think of it like knowing a group of thieves intends to rob a bank, but setting up surveillance and watching them rob it so they complete the crime, thereby sealing their fate, before snatching them up.
I realize that this may seem like a bridge too far for many to wrap their minds around. Still, given we are traversing the craziest timeline ever, it's damn near impossible to expect things to unfold predictably, since none of this has ever happened before.
A YUGE tell will be if he flips 180 degrees and passes it before a new Congress is slated to be seated in January (if at all).
Then again, it's not an impossibility that he was nothing more than what he's appeared to be all along, a RINO deep state asset.
Lots still TBD.
What a time to be alive!

True
Reminder:
If there were no Texas GOP Senate majority (just like there is about to not be a GOP majority in AZ House/Senate) - it still falls to the people of a state to stand by and protect their rights.
Never once in the history of this Republic have we attributed our rights to our party of choice holding a majority in a state or federal chamber. We have, unfortunately, placed a false sense of security in those things once taken for granted. “Oh, thank God, two more years of the left not being able to destroy us.”
But YOU have rights. You must assert them, and not be reliant on a majority to make you think everything is OK.

Tone deaf. Now you see it clearly. It's the uniparty pulling the strings. We never stood a chance. Now Texas will suffer at the hands of corruption that was never thwarted by this RINO. He'll roll of into the sunset with his cut and pretend like nothing happened.
However I do have my faith. My Lord is on his throne and these rats will face justice. Whether here on earth or when they meet their maker.
Gov. Abbott today announced the HHSC will receive $281M in federal funding for the second year of Rural Texas Strong, a five-year initiative to improve rural healthcare throughout the state.
This will deliver critical resources for patients and facilities in rural Texas.

Audit the midterms you coward.

I've only heard of Jim Jordan. And I almost forgot his name because he's done nothing in the last two years. This NEW team means nothing. Read the comments. Republicans lost everything. Including support from their own voting base. I only trust @POTUS and @StephenM at this point.
NEW TEAM ASSEMBLED! We have one mission: to protect and defend this country from the radical Left and focus on American families. That starts right now.
Republican Leader Jim Jordan
Whip Tom Emmer
Conference Chair Lisa McClain
NRCC Chair Brian Jack
Conference Secretary Mark Alford
Conference Vice Chair Blake Moore
Republican Policy Committee Chair Jay Obernolte

Replying to @tedcruz
@tedcruz what was your vote?
How stupid is @SenateGOP to put the man who did nothing and caused them to lose the Senate back in charge?
I want to see the list of the 31 Senators who voted for a loser, don’t you?

I did i sent it by email so i have a paper trail. @GregAbbott_TX @DanPatrick @Burrows4TX are all radio silent. No fighting back, no acknowledging the fraud, no investigations. I do remember @POTUS saying he's watching Texas. He knows those 3 frauds sold Texas to the democrats. I've never even heard of @GinaHinojosaTX. All of a sudden she's the governor?!
Tell @GregAbbott_TX and your State Senators/Reps to stop advocating to roll over and surrender for the next 9 weeks… and join the call to fight to limit the damage Democrats are able to do to Texas!
We must limit emergency powers in a special session now!!

Nothing. Texas isn't doing anything. Other than Paxton of course but as usual he's alone. No one is fighting for Texas.

Too slow. Now Texas has been stolen. You should ask @elon to help. He'd have it done in a day.
Texas Secretary of State Robert Howden today announced the formation of working groups made up of county election and registration officials and their staff to prioritize functionality of the Texas Election Administration Management (TEAM) system as redevelopment continues.

Same. This election was stolen. I'd like to say we'll see action but rinos in Texas including the governor won't even pretend to care.
I'm 52 years old and I've lived in Texas my ENTIRE LIFE and I had never even heard of Gina Hinojosa until a few months ago
NO CHANCE IN HELL that lunatic socialist swept my state!!
