1/ I'll explain exactly how this happened because I'm the person at Forbes who calculates these numbers.

This is going to take some unraveling, but here's a spoiler: The president's answer here is nonsense.

[Jason Hanson @JasonHanson2028]

If I were one of the newly elected members of Congress, these would be my FOUR immediate legislative priorities to start fixing this country. Not another round of partisan nonsense. Actual structural reform.

1. ETHICS REFORM

A 100% ban on individual stock trading by members of Congress, the President, Cabinet officials, Supreme Court justices, and their immediate families. ZERO exceptions. You shouldn’t be able to personally profit from the laws you write, enforce, or interpret.

And a minimum two-year ban on taking jobs, consulting fees, or compensation from companies with conflicts of interest related to your public duties after leaving office.

Call it the “Kushner Rule” or “Kushner Act” for fun.

2. CONGRESSIONAL & SUPREME COURT TERM LIMITS

* House: 6 years maximum.
* Senate: 12 years maximum.
* Supreme Court: 18 years maximum.

Public service should be service, not a lifetime career. We need fresh perspectives, accountability, and an end to the permanent political class.

3. UNIVERSAL HEALTH INSURANCE & PERSONAL WEALTH BUILDING

Everyone deserves healthcare security from birth to death. I believe the best path is universal catastrophic health insurance combined with individually owned Health Savings Accounts (HSAs).

Imagine every American being born with three things: universal catastrophic health coverage, a funded HSA, and a Trump Account with immediate contributions.

Employers and individuals could contribute to HSAs, while public contributions could reward national service (military, Peace Corps, etc.) and support people with disabilities or other qualifying needs.

Unused HSA funds could eventually convert into tax-free retirement savings. Think about that: incentives for better health, personal savings, AND retirement security. A win-win-win.

Over generations, a properly funded system could potentially reduce our dependence on Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid while giving Americans actual ownership of their financial futures.

And how do we fund it? Explore a national value-added tax (VAT), with major corporations and the AI-driven economy contributing to a system that benefits everyone.

4. ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT

Energy is a foundational cost of EVERYTHING. Electricity, fuel, food, manufacturing, transportation, housing. When energy costs rise, nearly everything gets more expensive.

We need massive investment in domestic energy production, particularly NUCLEAR ENERGY, alongside other practical technologies, a modernized electrical grid, and infrastructure designed for the enormous energy demands of the future.

Stop treating energy as another partisan football and start treating affordable, reliable energy as essential national infrastructure.

Fix these four foundational problems, and nearly everything else becomes easier to address.

Government corruption. Political stagnation. Healthcare insecurity. Retirement uncertainty. The cost of living.

These aren’t problems that belong exclusively to Republicans or Democrats. They’re American problems, and they deserve American solutions.

And until we start addressing the actual structure of these problems instead of endlessly fighting over their symptoms, the political pendulum will keep swinging back and forth.

Republicans win. Democrats win. Republicans win again. Meanwhile, the underlying problems remain.

Eventually, we’ll elect the right combination of people willing to make these changes.

I’d rather we stop wasting decades waiting for them. 🇺🇸

[Alvaro Bedoya @BedoyaUSA]

If Democrats win where they never win or haven’t won in ages, it’s not just because people turned on Trump. It’s because people are drowning. And they don’t want a one-time check or bailout. They want to break the systems pushing their heads underwater.

What does it look like to do that?

Break up the insurance giants that get fatter and richer while we get sicker. Don’t just investigate. Break them up.

Make healthcare a right. Give every new mom paid maternity leave. Stop this insane thing where Europeans pay less for American medicines than Americans do.

Labor unions are some of the most popular institutions in this country. Make it radically easier to form them.

If AI makes people radically more productive — if, there’s no evidence it does yet! — then listen to Shawn Fain and move to a 4 day workweek. The Senate passed a 30 hour workweek in 1933. Are we better than 1933?

And when those new elected officials who rode this wave are told “No, you can’t do that" or they’re asked “How will you pay for that?”

They should ask: How come there’s always money for bombs and never money for moms or teachers or kids or small business owners or anyone who isn’t a billionaire?

How come corporate profits are at their highest while corporate taxes are the lowest – and workers’ share of those riches are through the floor?

In 1890, Congress began to build an architecture to check the trusts, to check their version of corporate power. They reinforced that scaffolding and expanded it in 1914, 1936, and 1950.

The key question now is not “How do we maximize the next 2 years?” or “How do we repair that scaffolding?” – much as we should do that.

The key question now is: How do we start a 10 or 20 year project to pass the next generation of laws that protect regular people?

[Jeff Bohrer 😎 @jbohrer]

@NicoletteMpls Yes! Excellent resource!

I’m confused. If you understand this process why do you claim it’s broken? This process requires patience. And that’s ok by me. I trust it.

[Jeff Bohrer 😎 @jbohrer]

@NicoletteMpls That’s just not true. Weeks or months is a vastly unusual and rare situation.

[Jeff Bohrer 😎 @jbohrer]

@NicoletteMpls Not at all broken. We have time tested processes that work and rules that state when ballot counting can begin. Simple patience in our local systems is all that’s needed.

@wisconsin_now Vos is apparently making a hail mary attempt by invoking the Brewers. Let’s keep the Brewers out of this election cycle.
