🚨"One week after Republicans nominated a billionaire for Governor, Georgia Republicans claim we can solve the housing crisis by raising sales taxes on food, gas, and your weekend six pack to pay off the property taxes on his 46,000 square foot palace.

"Now President Trump refuses to sign a bipartisan housing package, calling the housing crisis of 'minor importance' compared to the 2020 election delusions he dreams about when he falls asleep in meetings.

"I'm calling on President Trump to sign the bill, help Americans, and move on from this 2020 nonsense."

Today, I’m announcing something new to fight back against Donald Trump and his attacks on our democracy. I'm launching Back The Bold to restore accountability in Washington.
The mission is straightforward: to back leaders with the courage to say what needs to be said, do what needs to be done, and hold Donald Trump and his administration accountable. That means supporting Democrats and Independents who refuse to flinch. It's time to be bold.  Join the fight.

Where is Congress? Where are those so called “fiscally conservative” Republicans? Trump is spending taxpayer money, the money of hardworking Americans, as if it is his OWN money for himself and his vanity projects, all while you sit back and do nothing. 🤬 Grow a spine, cowards!

You’re not poor because you bought coffee and avocados. You’re poor because billionaires bought Congress and the Presidency.

The Trump admin has already authorized almost $20 billion for Iran—before a final deal is signed.

If a deal is reached, Iran could receive nearly $500 billion. All to end the war Trump started.

NEW: Georgia state Sen. Greg Dolezal, the Republican nominee for lieutenant governor, said he deliberately submitted fake mail-in ballot applications to argue Georgia’s election system enables fraud.

Dolezal has centered his campaign on distrust of elections and pushed for stricter voting rules. He will face state Sen. Josh McLaurin (D) for the state’s second most powerful position in November. https://t.co/hCu4xAeIBS

WATCH: @MikeCollinsGA is an anti-abortion extremist who wants to completely ban abortion, “period. No exceptions.”

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Over 1,000 hospitals and other medical providers are now at risk of cuts or closures, thanks to Trump and Republicans’ big, ugly bill.

All to pay for tax cuts for the super-rich.

Never forget who they really govern for.

[Plunderbund @plunderbund]

They still want more and too many of our elected officials are happy to give it to them

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

This would be a scandal that would have ended any other presidency.

Qatar gave a $400 million Boeing 747 to the Pentagon. Trump calls it a “free” gift. It is not free. The Air Force just spent months retrofitting it with secure communications, missile defense, and electromagnetic shielding.

The cost of that work is classified.

Estimates say north of a billion.

The number is enormous, and you are paying it.

Now the part they bury.

Under the memorandum signed by the Pentagon and Qatar, ownership of the plane transfers to Trump’s presidential library foundation when he leaves office. His own son says it will sit in the lobby of a future Trump hotel.

So follow the chain.

A foreign government hands a luxury jet to a sitting president. American taxpayers rebuild it from the inside out. Then Trump takes it home.

A gift you use for four years and then keep is still a gift. The Constitution bars foreign gifts to a president without the consent of Congress. This one never got that consent.

We are paying a fortune to gift wrap a luxury jet that ends up in his private collection.

Grift in plain sight.

It's been a year since Trump and Republicans cut healthcare and SNAP to give tax breaks to the rich.

Billionaires are richer than ever. Musk is a trillionaire.

And the rest of us are living off savings and credit cards.

We're fighting back. Join us: https://t.co/4SVDenA92P

Republicans repeatedly claiming voter fraud and talking about rigged elections without ever showing proof is a hallmark of today’s Republican Party.

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

FACT: DOGE failed to reduce the federal deficit.

The deficit under Trump has remained near its highest level in American history outside of COVID: almost $2 trillion.

[Josh McLaurin @JoshMcLaurinGA]

Here’s something overlooked about Georgia this year: Republicans have no one driving the bus. Kemp and Burt Jones are on the way out. Both U.S. Senators are Democratic. The GOP state party is still at odds with electeds over election denial / Trump, and their slate is MAGA. Mess.

[Melanie D'Arrigo @DarrigoMelanie]

Zero. Undocumented immigrants aren’t allowed to register to vote.

The Heritage Foundation stated there were only 77 cases of non-citizens successfully casting ballots over the last 25 years.

Republicans are spreading bigoted lies to pass voter suppression laws.

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

Treasury just waived oil sanctions on Iran for 60 days — citing "progress."

Iran could rake in up to ~$10 billion off that decision alone.

In contrast, the Obama admin didn't lift sanctions until a deal was signed and the IAEA independently verified Iran's nuclear compliance.

[Melanie D'Arrigo @DarrigoMelanie]

Republicans cut your services and took more out of the paychecks of the bottom 40% of American workers to give more tax breaks to their rich friends.

Why do Republicans act like your paychecks belong to their campaign donors?

Hardworking families were promised 'America first' but instead got skyrocketing prices. We don't forget when we're lied to.

Ossoff: “The election deniers, they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing to tell, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission.

And you may have seen that one of those election deniers now asks to represent Georgia in the Senate. [Mike Collins], who supports war and cutting your health care and openly associates himself with bigotry and antisemitism, who defends the violent mob that sacked the Capitol on the morning of January 6th, 2021…

To this day, this man makes excuses for those who carried out an attack to throw out your votes and install a defeated President.”
