@HouseGOP Simultaneously, nearly every Republican voted to increase spending by hundreds of billions with no plan to pay for it, which is why Americans are suffering rampant inflation today.
Of the many, many terrible things about this administration, this is right up at the top. And I will specifically ask my fellow Christians… is this what you voted for? If it is, you need to revisit the scriptures you claim to revere.

It'd be nice to have a Speaker who'd say: "And let them, we have nothing to hide, and they'll look like fools for doing it."
But what he's saying here is: They're gonna uncover a lot of stuff, and you don't want that.
A woman hiking in Canada nearly became a grizzly’s next meal and the video circulating right now is genuinely one of the most intense wildlife encounters you will ever watch - her dog is with her, a massive grizzly is right there, and somehow she kept her head together long enough for both of them to walk away breathing.
That is not a small thing. Most people talk tough until nature is standing ten feet in front of them and every instinct in your body is screaming to run, and running is exactly the worst thing you can do.
Grizzlies are built to chase, they top out over 700 pounds and can cover ground faster than any human alive. The people who survive these moments are the ones who override pure fear with pure discipline and this woman did exactly that.
If you hike, camp, or spend any real time in the wilderness - bear spray is not optional, it is the difference between a story you tell and one somebody else tells about you.
Could you have kept your cool?
Hats off to her.
He’s wrong. And he’s deflecting. The most serious threat to the U.S. right now is authoritarianism/fascism. And Trump is the cause of this threat. Bcuz Trump is an authoritarian/fascist. He is the very thing our Founders feared.👇
AOC: Mike Johnson paints this as though it’s some partisan witch hunt. But if you don’t want to be prosecuted for crimes, don’t do crimes.
And he’s talking about running a protection racket. And we are already seeing that this Trump administration has run what some have called one of the largest pedophile protection programs in American history.
And so when Mike Johnson tells a group of wealthy donors, I'm the only thing standing between you, and a consequence that should rattle at the conscience of every American.
What he wants to do is create—or rather, not even create, because it’s already been created—but protect a class of impunity in America that says, “You can commit whatever crime, and so long as you pay a check to us, we will protect you.”
And that is a model of extortion in American politics. And you know what? That’s their pitch.
Agree here, @davidaxelrod. JD Vance is trying to minimize one of the biggest stories in politics, journalism, and American history. Another example of gaslighting in plain sight. We should all be calling out these types of misinformation.
Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."
Trump will leave office with a Boeing 747, courtesy of Qatar, upgraded courtesy of you.
A foreign government gave the President a $400 million jet. American taxpayers spent millions more making it one of the most sophisticated aircraft on the planet.
But when Trump leaves office, the plane doesn’t stay with the government. It goes with him.
The Constitution is clear: a president cannot accept a gift from a foreign government without the consent of Congress. We never consented to this.
Supreme Court tosses a $1.25M Roundup cancer verdict? Every American should ask why giant corporations keep getting the benefit of the doubt while ordinary people carry the risk. Outrageous.
Every president before Trump understood that you cannot accept a $400 million gift from a foreign government and still claim to be working for the American people.
No president in American history has ever accepted anything like this from a foreign government. There's a reason for that. It's called the Constitution.
Congress never voted on it. You never got a say. And you’re still paying up to $1 billion to retrofit it, so Trump can fly around in it, and then hand it off to his own personal foundation when he leaves office.
Yes, you heard that right. The American people don’t get to keep it. His foundation does.
This cannot be allowed to stand. I am doing everything in my power to stop it.

Trump just admitted why he canceled the bipartisan housing bill. He has more in common with the hedge funds buying up single-family homes than he does with the families who can't afford them. He doesn’t care what working Americans are going through and he never will.
This is correct. I attended the Supreme Court arguments. Trump DOJ argued alongside Bayer/Monsanto that because the EPA had already blessed glyphosate, no state government could require labels disclosing cancer risk. The EPA & DOJ in this instance was only there to protect Bayer.
