@POTUS FYI:
IN-DEMAND SKILL TRAINING is the fastest ticket to the Middle Class.
Unfortunately, Colleges are no longer in the business of preparing students for the workforce; they are in the business of MAXIMIZING REVENUE by "Milking" the GTD Student Loan System for every $ possible.
@SpeakerJohnson The Secure America Act (S. 2) offered no provision to open or close the border; technically, the border has never been closed.
Nor did the S.A.A. amend current FED Laws regarding the admissibility of "criminals."
All you had to do was reaffirm a few common-sense STANDARDS.
@SenateGOP Go ahead — keep deluding yourselves.
With the cost of healthcare, household essentials, groceries, insurance, and rents all "still" climbing, at least half of U.S. households are barely breaking even - with the poorest losing ground and security.
See you in November...
@frenstronaut@schreckels@est_MCMLXXVIII@atrupar CA counts precinct ballots first - then mail‑in and provisional.
Historically, those later ballots come from young, urban, and diverse voters - a group that leans "highly progressive."
Based on this dynamic, the surge for Raman was no surprise; in fact, it is the norm for CA.
@kate_p45 Three trips to the DMV just to get my 86‑year‑old mom a valid State ID because of the name‑change bureaucracy - Cost: $150 to order the documents she needed.
That’s the exact burden the SAVE ACT would impose on millions of lawful voters; paranoia should never drive policy.
NO!
@frenstronaut@schreckels@est_MCMLXXVIII@atrupar This happens in almost every major competitive California election; the phenomenon is so well-documented that political scientists call it the "Blue Shift" or the "Late Progressive Surge."
It's literally in textbooks.
You can disagree with the process, but this is not "fraud".
@FFT1776@VP@SenateGOP An attempt by Vice President Vance to bypass standing Senate Rules & Precedents would trigger an immediate massive & bipartisan vote against his actions.
It would be a highly embarrassing & public defeat.
Why?
Senators will protect their power at "all cost".
@elonmusk Let’s not pretend that manufacturing an “existential crisis” and centralizing voter regulation reflects the founders’ vision.
A government that concentrates power, weakens state sovereignty, and expands EXECUTIVE AUTHORITY is the very structure they warned against.
NO!
@elonmusk There’s no verified evidence of widespread, systemic voter fraud in California; the real concern is the DOJ’s late‑stage intervention just before the midterms.
If they have a case, MAKE IT TRANSPARENT; if they can't, we should all be concerned with this weaponization of the DOJ.
@BasedMikeLee I have the utmost respect for the Latter-Day Saints:
"The Church supports an approach where undocumented immigrants are allowed to square themselves with the law and continue to work without this necessarily leading to citizenship."
Where do you stand?

@RandPaul The Six Penny Plan is a math trick designed to force a balanced budget, but it cannot fundamentally cure political behavior.
As long as politicians rely on campaign donations from massive corporate entities, they will find or create new "structural cracks" to fund their donors.
@RonDeSantis It’s ironic watching so many "conservatives" jump on the AI INVESTMENT TRAIN.
The same crowd that rails against "social spending" seems perfectly comfortable socializing the costs when the profits can be privatized.
I guess "Socialism" is situational - depending on who profits?
@SenatorSlotkin CBO projections show a $1.8 - $2.0 trillion deficit in 2026, larger than 2025.
This contrasts against the GOP's HISTORICAL CUTS to Public Services as a "deficit cutting measure"
Why?
It seems their "investment" in the top 1%, at the expense of the People, isn't paying off.
@SenRickScott When politicians scream about the national debt being "INSANE," it reminds me of the moment an addict looks in the mirror after years of a addiction and wonders:
"How did I get here?"
This path was built one day at a time over decades - by both Parties.
#ThePeopleSuffer.
@SpeakerJohnson There’s no evidence of any national Democratic effort to replace "mother" or "father" with "gestating" or "non‑gestating parent."
The New York bill was a technical legal update for surrogacy and adoption language - nothing more.
Mr. Speaker, this was a LAZY POST.
@SenateGOP@SenatorCollins 10,000 votes is a milestone; unfortunately, so is the $30 trillion added to the DEBT over the same time frame.
Congress shouldn’t celebrate the votes while ignoring the outcomes; both parties owe atonement - for spending tomorrow’s money to avoid today’s political pain....
@SenRickScott The One Big Beautiful Bill already allocated roughly $170 billion to immigration and border enforcement - including a jaw-dropping $45 billion specifically to expand ICE detention capacity and an additional $30 billion for ICE PERSONNEL AND ENFORCEMENT ASSETS.
ICE is doing fine.
@SpeakerJohnson By every major fiscal analysis, “corporate welfare” (mostly to already profitable companies) dwarfs intentional & willful public‑assistance fraud; it's not even close!
Any plans to shut off that spigot draining our Treasury?
@SenRickScott Condemning Beijing’s repression in Tibet is essential; nonetheless, it's ironic:
Both the CCP & MAGA politics lean on zero‑sum demographic fear to protect a dominant culture.
The difference, of course, is that we still have mechanisms in place to correct OUR course.
#Midterm26
@SpeakerJohnson It's impressive; Speaker Johnson never breaks character - he stays on script:
(R) = protect your money
(D) = take your money
Trump = restored prosperity
Too bad the script only plays well with the top 10%; the donor class might feel it, but us "working class" aren't buying it.
@ECallum7@kbob_kebab@Hmmthinkitthru@ElissaSlotkin It's a matter of perspective: he never referenced "hanging" himself; his statement was their actions were treasonous and "punishable by death".
He did, however, repost & amplify dozens of comments suggesting they be "hanged".
Trump started the "fire" - with malicious intent.
