Mr. Trump, open up the Gordie Howe Bridge!

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

Just visited the Ambassador Bridge, the only commercial crossing from our region to Canada, with @BennieGThompson and @RepLouCorrea

The Gordie Howe Bridge will create more jobs and increase US-Canada trade. But due to Trump's corruption, it's still closed. He must open it ASAP.

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

Excited to welcome my CHS colleagues Rep. Bennie G. Thompson and Rep. Lou Correa to Detroit for a field visit!

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

Obamacare enrollment dropped 26% in Michigan thanks to MAGA's attacks on healthcare. That's over 130k people who can't afford healthcare.

Restoring the ACA is good, but we need Medicare for all.

Trump’s "peace deal" continuing to go about as expected.

Three tankers were struck in the Strait of Hormuz, in the latest attacks targeting vessels moving through the narrow mouth of the Persian Gulf, the British military said. https://t.co/pAmiR3Ji9o

TODAY: Excited to speak with you all!

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

If you lost power over the weekend, or are still being impacted by power outages, you might be eligible for a credit from DTE. 

This credit isn't near enough for many in my district, I'll keep fighting for lower rates and better reliability.

[WXYZ Detroit @wxyzdetroit]

DTE offers a $42 credit for people who have lost power after a certain amount of time following a storm. https://t.co/D6wIBkReFU

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

Inflation just hit the highest rate in years because Trump doesn't understand how the world economy works.

This was 100% avoidable.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Trump: "The famous Strait of Hormuz -- nobody ever heard of it, but that is some big money machine, I'll tell you what"

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

NASTY community note.

Are Trump Press Secretaries even physically capable of speaking without lying?

[Karoline Leavitt @karolineleavitt]

I am seeing a lot of bad faith actors take my comments from this interview out of context. So here’s the full interview, and let me expound.

This interview was about the rise of communism on the Left, and I was asked by Jesse Watters why so many young people are buying the false promise of “free stuff” being sold by communist politicians.

My answer: a combination of laziness, yes, and the liberal indoctrination that has been taking place in our education system for far too long. There are far-left educators pumping students’ heads with garbage, convincing them that hard work and sacrifice won’t pay off down the road because they want them totally reliant on the government instead.

I went on to say that’s why President Trump is a huge advocate for school choice, and why so many parents I know are turning to homeschooling. Good parenting matters more than anything, but a solid, civics-based education is also vitally important.

I care enough about our country to tell uncomfortable truths. And it’s an undeniable fact that a growing number of young people in our country are falling for the lies of socialism and communism, sold to them by anti-American politicians who’ve never built anything, offer no real solutions, and are intent on tearing down everything that makes this country great.

At the same time, it’s also true that many Gen Z Americans are hardworking, entrepreneurial, and deeply patriotic, and it’s vital we protect the American Dream for them. That’s why I am honored to work for President Trump and speak on behalf of an administration that is implementing the right policies to do this: lower taxes, less regulation, stopping Wall Street from purchasing single-family homes, Trump Accounts, and the deportation of illegal aliens who are taking our housing and jobs. There is more work to do, which is why President Trump and our entire administration won’t stop fighting to make life better and more affordable for young people.

As the President has correctly warned, “communism is the enemy of free people everywhere. It is the enemy of the Constitution. Above all, it is the enemy of July 4, 1776.”

So I will continue to call out the radical Democrats, socialists, and communists who are lying to our youth, and I know the President will continue to pursue an economic and domestic agenda that expands and strengthens the American Dream for generations to come.

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

Here's you crying about us trying to pass legislation take masks OFF of ICE, which you love so much.

NOW all of a sudden it's, "No patriot would ever wear a mask!"

What a fraud you are.

[Mike Lee @BasedMikeLee]

Patriot Front:

Brought to you by leftists who don’t know that patriots don’t wear masks.

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

Last year you said that Patriot Front was a federal psy-op run by the FBI and that it would go away as soon as Kash took over.

Now that Kash HAS taken over but Patriot Front is still here you have to come up with dumb BS like this.

"[A] solid, civics-based education is also vitally important."

Your boss literally just made up a quote and attributed it to the Declaration of Independence.

You can't make this up (unlike the quote).

Perhaps because you made it up entirely, those words are nowhere to be found in the Declaration of Independence.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Trump: And as our Declaration of Independence tells us, we are all made in the image of one almighty god. And a communist will never say that.

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

One year ago today, President Trump signed the One Big Ugly Bill into law. This was one of the most wasteful laws in American history. President Trump took money from American families and workers and gave it to his cronies.

Robbery. Plain and simple.

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

Trump's Big Ugly Bill has sent healthcare costs soaring, stripped millions of working Americans of their health insurance, and shut down clinics and hospitals.

Forcing that dreadful bill on America was the LEAST patriotic thing a president could do, and no amount of fake-patriotic posturing will change that.

[FactPost @factpostnews]

One year ago today, Trump and Republicans passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, cutting healthcare by $1 trillion. Since then:

—The average cost of healthcare has doubled
—4.2 million Americans lost ACA coverage
—3.8 million Americans lost Medicaid coverage
—Nearly 500 hospitals, clinics, and nursing homes have closed

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

America, you don't look a day over 250!

[Congressman Shri Thanedar @RepShriThanedar]

Hopefully, considering the fact that hot dog prices have skyrocketed over the past year thanks to Trump's reckless tariffs, which have caused a double digit increase in the price of beef.

MAGA logic:

Mayor of biggest US city encouraging common sense precautions to protect the power grid (which every NYC mayor for decades and numerous Republican governors have done for decades) is "COMMUNISM" but Trump just having no AC at his fair altogether is SO much better!
