Donalds Leads Effort To Codify President Trump's America First Energy Agenda Into Law
WASHINGTON – Congressman Byron Donalds (R-FL) has introduced legislation to codify President Trump's four, May 23, 2025, executive orders regarding the production and national security implications of domestic nuclear energy.
H.R. 3667 - "The Strengthening American Nuclear Energy (SANE) Act" is the 15th piece of legislation introduced by Congressman Donalds during the 119th Congress and specifically codifies following executive orders: (1) Deploying Advanced Nuclear Reactor Technologies for National Security; (2) Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission; (3) Reforming Nuclear Reactor Testing at the Department of Energy; and (4) Reinvigorating the Nuclear Industrial Base.
"In November, the American people granted us an unprecedented mandate to implement President Trump’s America First Agenda," said Congressman Donalds (R-FL). "Now more than ever, it’s up to Congress to hold up our end of the bargain. Energy security is national security and it’s imperative that our nation re-asserts our dominance in the nuclear space."

Dear Fellow Floridian,
Hurricane Season is HERE. Now is the time for every Florida family to make sure you are prepared for whatever this Hurricane Season may bring.
Floridians know better than anybody that hurricanes and severe weather can strike anytime and anywhere. That's why it's important for you to have a plan to keep you and your family safe in case of an emergency.
Throughout my time as Governor and as your United States Senator, I have seen the destruction left behind by devastating hurricanes like Michael, Irma, Hermine, Matthew, Ian, Fiona, Idalia, and most recently, Debby, Helene, and Milton. If there is one thing I’ve learned, it’s that Floridians are resilient. Our state and local communities always come together in times of need to work incredibly hard to rebuild and recover.
Florida is resilient because we prepare. I cannot stress this enough: preparedness saves lives. We can always rebuild a home, but we can’t rebuild a life. Make a plan TODAY!
Visit my website: https://www.rickscott.senate.gov/hurricane-preparedness or ready.gov for more on how to make a plan and get prepared.

When I came to Washington, I promised I would fight every day to Make Washington Work for Florida families and ensure the safety of our nation, that means standing up to adversaries like Communist China who seek to destroy the American way of life. President Trump knows that well and has been working to crack down on Communist China and put America first.
Whether it’s stealing our intellectual property, sending deadly fentanyl across our southern border and into our communities, or spying on United States citizens, the Communist Chinese regime has proven it will stop at nothing to destroy us. I shared these concerns in my letter to U.S. Ambassador to China, David Perdue, and asked him to continue holding Communist China accountable as he works to accomplish President Trump’s agenda.
This week, I also introduced several pieces of legislation to support the President's agenda and back against the CCP’s growing influence by
Building on my efforts over the years to ban Chinese-made drones and components in our country;
Ensuring American student admissions are prioritized, and the exploitation of nations like Communist China in our higher education is stopped;
Stopping federal agencies from using Communist China’s AI to protect our national security.
The Communist Chinese regime has made clear – they hate our way of life. So now it’s on every member of our government and every citizen to take this threat seriously, starting by passing critical legislation, such as these bills, and buying American-made products!
Sincerely,
Rick Scott

BREAKING: Trump's GIFT TO SENIORS: Big Boost in Senate Bill
TRUST
What is the major difference between the Democrats & Republicans? The Democrats have lost the trust of the American people while the Republicans have gained it. Too many lies by Democrats & their media have been exposed to the American people and they no longer believe anything told them.
All the Democrats have left to speak to is the 20% of Americans who support them against the 80% who do not. The Democrats have destroyed their party by not hearing the voice of the American people who support those policies Trump campaigned on.
Trump needs to speak more to the world about the fate of the Iranian people, enslaved for decades, multiple attempts to free themselves failed. They want liberty & now is the time to free them from bondage. Quite simply now is the time to dismantle the leadership of Iran & allow the people to rule themselves. The same is true with Gaza, eliminate the threat there & allow the Palestinian people to rule themselves. NOW is the time to eliminate the threat to the Middle Eastern countries & allow them to enter into peace agreements.
On the home front regarding the riots across the country which are being funded by foreign countries & far-left radicals including Democrats. They want to see America destroyed leaving Trump with no option but to weed them out from peaceful protestors & prosecute, incarcerate, or deport them. Keep in mind Democrats are refusing to speak out against the violence they deny it’s happening.
What do we do now? We may have won the battle & we are on our way to Make America Great Again however keep in mind WE are the power behind this movement. If we restrict our voice we create obstacles, now is the time to voice our feelings to our representatives in govt let them know you agree or disagree with their positions & most of all get ready for the mid-term elections these are important votes, this is a ‘Constitutional Republic’ in action. Most importantly don’t be tricked by the term (many people use) we ARE NOT a Democracy.

MUDDY RABBIT TRACKS
Mark 16: 15 “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”
This spring and early summer has been unusually rainy. The grass is growing to the point the mower is getting a more than normal workout and the string-line trimmer is well used.
The ponds are full and creeks are running full speed. Normally by this time of year they have ceased to flow and mostly pooled in a few places. We’ve noticed when out on the Harley, tortoises are often crossing the roads.
There was a snapping turtle down by the creek last week. Those pre-historic looking jaws of his were a warning not to get too close. Too much water had driven him out of his normal habitat.
Early this morning, just after daylight, I walked down the driveway with my first cup of coffee. The fresh sealant on the driveway was shiny after the rain last night.
From about thirty feet away, noticed were spots of mud on the clean driveway. A few steps later it became obvious, the spots were rabbit tracks. The rabbits had come out of the corn field which was muddy between the rows.
We sit on the front porch most mornings and watch our rabbit friends chomp on the white clover. We are amused by their quick bursts of movement to another spot for their favorite breakfast.
Observing the creation of our God gives us more than adequate motivation to engage in our early morning conversations.
One morning we noticed several birds sitting on the power line together and one lonely bird about fifty feet from the crowd. Perhaps birds can also be classified as introverts or extroverts.
Some choose to perch in the tree tops in the woods across the road while others are in the grass foraging out those tasty morsels of grass seeds. One recent morning, a flock of turkeys crossed our front yard and evenings we enjoy the music of the frogs on the pond, crickets in the trees, and the light of the fireflys over the wheat field.
God’s precious creation is all around us. Not noticed, by many is His power and originality.
The muddy rabbit tracks on the driveway make me wonder what mark I will leave on the world. Many, I’m sure wonder the same thing. Most us realize we will live and die and in a few years be forgotten.
Tombstones are important to some but in knowing that after a few years, no one will even recognize our names, what’s the point of having a rock costing thousands of dollars over our dead bodies?
A question asked once was “What can we do on this earth that will make a difference in a thousand (or a million) years?”
For the believer in the Lord Jesus and eternal life (Romans 6: 23), the answer is very clear. In my writing and speaking, the comment has been made, “How arrogant and ridiculous you are in teaching people there is only one eternal salvation!”
One never gets used to that statement and the sorrow felt for those that say (and think) such a thing, cuts into my heart. Their denial of our Lord Jesus is an eternal decision and one believed in all certainty, they will regret.
Acts 4: 12 “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” The Apostle Luke was of course referring to Jesus when he wrote that verse.
Jesus said in John 14: 6 “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father, but by me.” This statement by our Jesus is very conclusive and certain. No room is left for doubt!
Biblical certainty is steadfast and realistic. The information in the Bible written between 1900 and 3500 years ago proves beyond doubt of the reality of the scriptures. The finding of the Dead Sea Scrolls and other artifacts offer irrefutable proof of the age and case for the Bible and the salvation offered by Jesus.
Romans 10: 9-10 “If thou shalt confess (say it, believe it) with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” This is a promise from God.
Those muddy rabbit tracks left a few spots on my driveway that will be washed away by the next rain. But you can make a mark on a precious life that our Jesus died for by telling them about Him. And yes, it will make a difference in a thousand or a million years.
When we begin to regard everyone we see as someone Jesus died for, then, and only then, will we begin to make our marks on eternity.
After preaching a revival a few years ago in the town where I was an Industrial Arts teacher, a young man came to me after a service and said: “I just finished building a house for my family and I was able to do that because of what I learned in your class.”
Wouldn’t it be cool to have someone say to you in Heaven someday “I’m here because you told me!”
