It's sometimes difficult to separate fact from fiction, truth from falsehood. Try Carl Sagan's "Baloney Detection Kit." You can test ideas, avoid fallacies, and operate in a more fact-based world. via @brainpickings

⁦@POTUS⁩ continues to violate his oath. Congress controls spending, not the President. Trump escalates spending fight with Congress, says he will cancel $5 billion - ⁦@Reuters⁩ https://t.co/XE88CyExgZ

@ProbSolveCaucus I applaud the effort. My question is how do we keep museums independent and free of political influence (from either party). The current administration doesn’t appear to value clear-eyed historical accuracy.

@ProbSolveCaucus This caucus had the opportunity to make a difference and chose inaction. Please don’t claim to care about debt burden and cross-party solutions, while voting for a bill that will increase the deficit and add more debt.

[Shawn Shell @shawnshell]

@ProbSolveCaucus @repgabeevans @RepScottPeters It would be terrific if you can clarify what “cutting environmental corners” means today. The current administration seems to misunderstand the #ClimateCrisis and Congress has failed to act.

[Shawn Shell @shawnshell]

I would like reinforce the @ProbSolveCaucus message: working across parties to govern this great country. Can I get commitment from @TheDemocrats and @GOP to do just that? Let’s avoid partisan bickering and needless “investigations” that simply distract. #PleaseLead

#MI04 needs a new representative. It's clear that @RepBillHuizenga does not have our best interests in mind. The recently passed tax & spend bill will not control spending and add $3Tn to the debt. It's not good for SW Michigan and it's not good for the United States.

When a large employer pays so little that their full time employees qualify for Medicaid , (or any public assistance ) we the taxpayers are effectively subsidizing that big company. That’s wrong

[Shawn Shell @shawnshell]

Insightful research, as always, from @USAFacts on the IRS' cost to collect taxes. It may or may not be as much as you think, though currently sits at just $0.34 per $100: https://t.co/BxNd18zdn9

Dangerous statement suggesting the federal government intends to remove duly elected state officials: “We are not going away,” Noem declared at the event. “We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership..." https://t.co/rbtoGoygpa

@RepHuizenga are you comfortable with this approach? How can @POTUS pardon hundreds of #J6 offenders, who clearly did more than spit, while suggesting violence against those protesting what they see as unfair immigration enforcement. https://t.co/CFavaA1W24
