If you fail to deliver for your voters long enough, your voters will stop delivering for you. Simple as.

"As Julie and I discussed it, we thought it was worth calling Christian couples to re-imagine what it’s like walking into church on your own, and then to think of church less like a date and more like a deployment."

You could have used the talking filibuster to pass the Save America Act and secured our elections from foreign voters, to name one
Very important 🧵 from @rhett_burns—one of the leading advocates for increased financial transparency in the SBC—reacting to our recent article at @BaptistLeaders breaking down the decline and stagnation of the Cooperative Program 👇🏼
"For the sake of our Great Commission work, SBC leaders should ask themselves a simple but serious question: Why is CP giving declining year after year?"
Outstanding article here from @DustinDeVito on the CP's decline.

What are we doing here?
BREAKING: Sen. Majority Leader John Thune has been re-elected by Senate Republicans and will serve as Senate Minority Leader in the new Congress when Dems take power. Senators Barrasso, Cotton, Capito, and Lankford have all also been re-elected to their positions. Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH) will now serve as NRSC Chairman instead of Sen. Tim Scott.
It’s funny how much flak I take from Mid & Big Eva company men, who accuse me of doing nothing more than “tweeting”
While at the same time the organization I founded in SBC life, @BaptistLeaders, has stacked big wins for conservatives and is the ONLY outlet regularly addressing major institutional issues like declining Cooperative Program giving & offering real solutions (which they won’t touch)
And we just crossed 14,000 followers on here, which is more than multiple official SBC entities
And it’s on the same day that TGC, which they love and defend, published this nonsense below
We are building. We are winning. We are the anti-woke, future-minded coalition for a better SBC. Join us today!
The Cooperative Program is the heart of the SBC—and it’s in worse shape than our leaders are letting on.
@DustinDeVito dug into the numbers. Far from “holding steady” it’s in historic decline over the last 5 years
The only solution left is transparency

SBC leadership needs to wake up. Cooperative program giving is in a free fall.
And the only solution here is restoring trust through increased transparency. Any entity leader who refuses to provide more transparency is essentially rubber stamping this decline.
Ross Douthat's question to Donald Trump about "forgiving" James Comey and Nancy Pelosi in order to "get into heaven" was sanctimonious and silly
Amazing to see @BaptistLeaders cross 14k followers on X! And we’re close to 20k followers across our main platforms of engagement.
This has been done without ANY ad spend. Our message resonates because Baptists are hungry for courage & solutions to the issues facing the SBC!
Thank you for the 14,000 followers!
We exist to revitalize the SBC, defend it from its enemies, and be your courageous Baptist voice in the public square.
Join us in that mission here today: centerforbaptistleadership.o…
You know whose “incomparable dignity” I care about first and foremost?
The dignity of American citizens who are having their homeland, jobs, homes, and future stolen away by foreigners who have no right to be in our country in the first place.
Spare me all the “dignity of the immigrant” talk. No, I don’t hate them. I wish them well—back where they belong.
But I’m sick of seeing my Christian faith weaponized against my American neighbors and used as an excuse to defraud Americans of the only country we have on earth.
Friends, Catholic social teaching holds two things together: a nation has the right, and the duty, to regulate its borders, and every migrant is a person of incomparable dignity who deserves generosity.
In January, amid the tensions in Minnesota, I proposed that enforcement focus on those who have committed serious crimes. Last year, together with my brother bishops of Minnesota, I called on Congress to pass comprehensive immigration reform. What the President described Sunday in his 60 Minutes interview about immigration is very much in that spirit.
The President now proposes working with Democrats toward a solution that involves a properly regulated border, the deportation of people who have committed serious crimes, and a generous approach toward those who have been non-violent and have contributed to the economy. He even admitted that the enforcement of his immigration policy has been too tough.
That is the balance the Church’s teaching points toward. We have waited years for a solution to this thorny problem. I would strongly encourage leaders in both parties to take advantage of this extraordinary opportunity.
Dignity Act? Amnesty
Pathway to citizenship? It’s amnesty
Comprehensive immigration reform? Also amnesty
DACA permanent legal status? Believe it or not, also amnesty
It doesn’t matter what you call it, amnesty is never the answer
I don’t follow Left Wing/Democrat twitter but are their posters as emotionally incontinent as ours?
You really don’t have to let this business eat you up the way some of you do.
“Trump betrayed me!” “My favorite podcaster misled me!” “You’re a plan truster!” “You’re a Panican!”
It’s on both sides of the divide. Stop letting yourself be tossed to and fro like this.
Can we get a JD Vance as Rumpelstiltskin shushing @marcthiessen meme video please?
