Thomas Massie: "I vote with Republicans 91% of the time. And the 9% I don't, they're taking up for pedophiles, starting another war, or bankrupting our country."
An absolute mic drop. 🎤⬇️
One of the many tragedies of this war is that before the war began the U.S. Intel Community, including CIA, was in agreement that Iran wasn't developing a nuclear weapon & that Iran would target U.S. bases in the region & shut down the Strait of Hormuz if they were attacked by Israel & the U.S.
The IC also properly assessed that targeting the Iranian leadership would strengthen the regime and embolden the hardliners.
Despite the professionalism & accuracy of the IC, the narrative & agenda spun by a foreign government- Israel, won the argument & forced us into this war.
We need to understand exactly how this happened to ensure we are never put in this position again.
Melissa Hortman was killed by a Trump supporter.
The first person to allegedly take a shot at Trump was a registered Republican.
Every study shows more political violence from the right than the left.
But sure, other than that, great tweet, totally factual and not cynical BS.
These fucking morons are allowing Iran to get $14 billion in the middle of a war against them. This is the biggest, dumbest concession ever given to Iran by the US and all you need to know about what a disaster Trump’s policy is.
Twenty years ago we invaded Iraq. The war killed many innocent Iraqis and Americans. It destroyed the oldest Christian populations in the world. It cost over $1 trillion, and turned Iraq into a satellite of Iran. It was an unforced disaster, and I pray that we learn its lessons.
The pardons Trump is handing out are a huge, growing scandal that not enough people are talking about. This is a money making operation - for for Trump, his family, his crypto pals, and the Trump-affiliated lobbyists and grifters who the pardon seekers pay.
“Man card” I guess that was funny in the 90s.
As a former F-16 fighter pilot and combat veteran, there is nothing more manly than defending your country from fascists and authoritarians.
We don’t yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk, but this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy. Michelle and I will be praying for Charlie’s family tonight, especially his wife Erika and their two young children.
Oh cool I can do that too.

Ok, so Republicans just introduced a 900 page bill none of them have read. But my team is going through it line by line and on this 🧵you can see the hidden provisions we found. Will update all day.
1/ NEW Medicaid cuts, so now 17 million - instead of 16M - lose health care.
Can anyone explain to me how Trump can deploy troops to Los Angeles no matter what the governor or mayor say, but somehow it was Nancy Pelosi who needed to send the National Guard to DC on January 6th and Trump was powerless to do anything about it?
