@ameliaknisely Step 1: Cut benefits and funding for the poor during the legislative session.

Step 2: Blame the poor people receiving the funding for misspending what they receive during the summer.

Step 3: Cut funding further next legislative session.

Sounds like your typical GOP argument.

@stevenadamswv I’m sure all of those in attendance will be WV citizens and have the best interests of WV in mind. 🙄

[Donald Trump Portfolio Tracker @TrumpsPortfolio]

I CALLED IT, ANIMALS, AND YOU LAUGHED!!! Months ago I told you ICE would buy facilities DIRECTLY from the prison companies at north of $150,000 per bed — and I was WRONG, folks, it was BETTER!!! ICE just bought TWO facilities from CoreCivic — $CXW — for $1.47 BILLION!!! That's $286,000 per bed in California City, $371,000 PER BED at Otay Mesa, $323,000 a bed COMBINED — DOUBLE what these things cost to build!!! Even I underestimated the beauty, and I NEVER underestimate!!!

AND WHO OWNS $CXW??? DONALD TRUMP!!! It's RIGHT THERE in the disclosure, folks — the man holds CoreCivic AND GEO Group, the two companies running America's ICE detention centers!!! Follow the bouncing ball: HE runs the immigration crackdown!!! HIS DHS just wired $1.47 billion to a company HE OWNS SHARES IN, at DOUBLE replacement cost!!! The buyer is his government, the seller is his portfolio, and the taxpayer is the ATM!!! That's not a conflict of interest, that's a CLOSED LOOP!!!

And the STRUCTURE is a masterpiece: DHS buys the buildings, but CoreCivic KEEPS OPERATING them under the same contracts!!! Sold the real estate, KEPT the revenue — like selling your house and the buyer pays YOU rent!!! Gain north of $1 BILLION on assets carried at PENNIES!!!

THE DE-LEVERING — exactly like I told you: $716 MILLION of debt GONE overnight!!! Credit facility, GONE!!! The 2027 notes, GONE!!! And that puts them under the covenant thresholds that unlock UNLIMITED BUYBACKS with the $400 million left over!!! Fewer shares, folks — and whose shares get more valuable??? DONALD'S!!!

AND THE SEQUEL IS COMING: CoreCivic says it's in talks with ICE to sell MORE facilities!!! The machine runs forever: sign the orders, fill the beds, sell the buildings to yourself at double price, buy back the stock, watch the disclosure GLOW!!! One catch the animals should know — ICE can cancel those operating contracts anytime, so read the covenants before you chase!!! Do your own research, NOT advice!!! Is ANYBODY looking into this??? The SEC??? He APPOINTS the SEC!!! I called the trade, the price, AND the de-levering — GREATEST prison analyst in American history, maybe ever!!!

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July. I know @realDonaldTrump and family did.

250 years ago we declared independence from a king who ran the colonies as a family business. In just 18 months the Trumps have made King George look like an amateur.

A $620 million Pentagon loan, the largest in the program’s history, to a company Don Jr.’s firm bought into three months before.

An Air Force drone contract to a startup the princelings took public through a golf course company they own a piece of.

The Army’s largest drone motor order ever, to a company where Don Jr. sits on the board and holds millions in stock.

A $24 million Pentagon robotics contract to the company that employs Eric as Chief Strategy Advisor.

A stake in the largest undeveloped tungsten deposit on earth, in Kazakhstan, backed by $1.6 billion in US government support.

Jared’s fund seeded with $2 billion from the Saudi crown prince, now $6.2 billion, 99% of it foreign money from Gulf governments. Over $110 million in fees collected from the Saudis alone. He negotiates American foreign policy with the governments that pay him.

$2.3 billion from crypto ventures their father regulates. More than a million people bought in and lost $2.3 billion. The money didn’t grow. It simply moved from the subjects pockets to the crown’s coffers.

And the next one is already drafted. A proposed ATF rule that will allow guns to be shipped straight to your front door. The government’s own estimate is 3.3 million home gun deliveries a year. Don Jr. sits on the board of the online gun megastore built to cash in. He holds 300,000 shares.

And that’s only the fraction they’ve allowed us to see. Not one subpoena served. Not one search executed. Why hide anything when you own the investigators?

Me? They searched a laptop for six years. Federal prosecutors. Grand juries. Subpoena power. Congressional hearings. They found nothing. I made about $200k a year selling paintings when my Dad was President, and they made my paintings part of an impeachment inquiry.

For six years they’ve asked Where’s Hunter? What about the laptop?

Wrong questions. The right one is 250 years old. Does America belong to a family?

They’ve given their answer. Long live the King.

[Raizin @NotADeadFeline]

@PatrickKrason @ameliaknisely @Lisa_Asillie They’ll just give more money to Hope and call it fixed. Republicans have no interest in fixing public education other than privatizing it.

[Raizin @NotADeadFeline]

@wvgovernor Most will never come to fruition. Whatever happened to the 100-300 jobs promised at the Omni site in Bluefield? It's been 4 years and the building is still empty. How much money has the state lose on that boondoggle?

[Raizin @NotADeadFeline]

@TODDSTER28 @kellakelWV @RepRileyMoore @RepCarolMiller @SenCapito @JimJustice_WV By all means, lets let poor kids starve and get their only meals of the day at public schools because fresh vegetables and protein cost significantly more than "junk" food and you don't like their shopping choices. I thought the GOP solved this in January banning soda from SNAP?

[Raizin @NotADeadFeline]

@RevBradleyUMC Industry shill? You mean a former WV House of Delegates member who was expelled for participating in the J6 riot? This is all politics to Mr. Evans.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

Trump is now reportedly responsible for roughly 27.7% of the entire U.S. national debt accumulated under all presidents combined.

That is an astonishing figure historically.

The national debt just crossed $39 trillion.

President Trump has added roughly $12–13 trillion to the debt across his two terms in office.

That’s approximately 30% of ALL U.S. national debt accumulated since 1789.

In 2016, Trump said he would pay down the national debt “over a period of eight years.”

Instead:

- First term: +$7.8 trillion
- Second term: roughly +$4–5 trillion already

And yes, COVID affected first-term spending.

It does not explain adding another trillion dollars every five months without a pandemic.

A political movement built on:
“fiscal conservatism”
“small government”
“balanced budgets”

has now overseen the largest debt expansion tied to any single presidency in American history.

[Mitch Jackson, Esq. @mitchjackson]

Fun fact for the $10 billion lawsuit crowd.

The IRS leak that exposed Donald Trump’s tax returns happened between August 2019 and November 2020.

405,427 other taxpayer returns were also leaked.

Trump was president. His own pick, Charles Rettig, ran the IRS. The contractor who did it, Charles Littlejohn, worked on a Trump-era IRS contract and is now serving five years in federal prison.

On January 29, 2026, Trump sued the IRS and Treasury for $10 billion over a breach that happened on his watch, under his commissioner, by a contractor his administration paid.

He is suing the federal government he ran, for failing to stop a leak that occurred while he was running it.

The taxpayer foots the bill either way.

@PhilKabler They put their names and likenesses on buildings to pretend they’ve actually done something, while they continue to graft.

[Just Jack @7Veritas4]

The FBI guy is on a paranoid bender and won’t leave his room.

The War guy quotes bible passages from Pulp Fiction.

The Health guy collects raccoon dicks.

It’s an Idiocracy on steroids.

@kellakelWV Feb. 2022 Justice announced the Omnis plant in Bluefield. Still waiting on those jobs to materialize.

[Raizin @NotADeadFeline]

@wvgovernor @WOWK13News Thanks for the cup of coffee! Can't wait for those who really benefitted to trickle down that money to me!

[Raizin @NotADeadFeline]

@MorriseyWV Chinese coal imports fell 92% in '25 due to Trump's tariffs. WV was the largest US exporter to China. Why would China pay more in energy costs to burn WV Coal, when they can produce cheaper power from other sources? They must lack the wisdom of our state's subsidies for coal.

@WVpooper @wvgazettemail @WV_Watch Yikes bro. You might want to delete this. Google is free.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Those who pray are aware of their own limitations; they do not kill or threaten with death. Instead, death enslaves those who have turned their backs on the living God, turning themselves and their own power into a mute, blind and deaf idol (Ps 115:4–8), to which they sacrifice every value, demanding that the whole world bend its knee. Enough of the idolatry of self and money! Enough of the display of power! Enough of war! True strength is shown in serving life. #Peace

@JobsandHopeWV @stevenadamswv OK Trump, Jr. "Everybody is saying it's the greatest April Fools Day post they've ever seen!" 🤣 There are literally ZERO likes and ZERO comments on both of those X posts.

[Raizin @NotADeadFeline]

@mccuskeyforwv @realDonaldTrump Costs are low? Have you paid an electric bill or filled your gas tank lately? I personally can’t take much more of Trump’s “winning.” And where does the $200 billion come for this new forever war?

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

A year ago we were supposed to be getting $2,000 rebate checks, DOGE was going to find $2 trillion in waste to balance the budget, we were going to pay no income taxes because tariffs would pay for everything, gas & home electric bills would be cut in half, and no new wars.
