Yes Tom. We need lots and lots of munitions to fight your unnecessary war with Iran. 16 American soldiers dead and hundreds injured but just a small price to pay for this economic benefit to Arkansas. @ArkansasOnline

[Tom Cotton @SenTomCotton]

Arkansas is the defense capital of the America.

In the last year alone, Hanwha, General Dynamics, and Lockheed Martin have all invested in our state, creating high-paying jobs and producing the munitions we need.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

The supine Supreme Court majority again abets Trump’s efforts to interfere with the upcoming midterm election.

Another precedent-breaking validation of right-wing attacks on equal access to the ballot.

Such is the undeniable legacy of the Roberts Court.

I’m happy to share this because I don’t care what side of the aisle you sit on, this is a fact.

Speaker Mike Johnson this is for you.
Concerning Social Security payments, my contributions were made for over 50 years on every salary I received. From my first part time job until I retired. I always had a job.

The Social Security check is now (or soon will be) referred to as a "Federal Benefit Payment?" I'll be part of the one percent to forward this.I am forwarding it because it touches a nerve in me, and I hope it will in you. Please keep passing it on until everyone in our country has read it.

The government is now referring to our Social Security checks as a "Federal Benefit Payment." This isn't a benefit. It is our money paid out of our earned income! Not only did we all contribute to Social Security but our employers did too.

It totaled 15% of our income before taxes.
Congress took our money and used it elsewhere. They forgot (oh yes, they knew) that it was OUR money they were taking.

They didn't have a referendum to ask us if we wanted to lend the money to them. And they didn't pay interest on the debt they assumed. And recently they've told us that the money won't support us for very much longer. And now, to add insult to injury, they're calling it a "benefit", as if we never worked to earn every penny of it.

Just because they borrowed the money doesn't mean that our investments were a charity!

Let's take a stand. We have earned our right to Social Security and Medicare. Demand that our legislators bring some sense into our government.

Find a way to keep Social Security and Medicare going for the sake of that 92% of our population who need it. Then call it what it is: Our Earned Retirement Income.
99% of people won't forward this to their timelines…..will you?

Please, for the sake of our country, repost this.

Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to the politics of South Carolina!

Darline Graham says people shouldn’t have government run healthcare because her parents didn’t have government run healthcare and they died when she was a child.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who agrees that it is OBSCENE that the President is trying to block U.S. citizens from exercising their right to vote via mail-in ballot.

He uses it HIMSELF... and he is STILL the only person caught trying to steal "11,780 votes."

[Jon Favreau @jonfavs]

1 ship went through the Strait of Hormuz yesterday, down from the pre-war average of 30-40

Gas prices are the highest ever recorded in August

Iran just killed 4 Americans a few weeks ago

50,000 troops are still deployed for a war that @ScottJenningsKY says we've won

[Anonymous @YourAnonNews]

They push fear at people about shit that has never happened and stupid people believe them. That's how fascism works.

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

Of course, Jeanine Pirro was forced to drop her bogus case against my constituent (three-time Olympian) Davey Hearn on trumped-up charges of vandalism for touching the waters of the Reflecting Pool, which people in the DMV now call the “Strait of Warm Ooze.”

By the government’s own admission, Trump’s contractor botched the blue-paint repair job, turning this national treasure into an overflowing algae farm. Trump and his swamp-toadies were willing to jail an innocent 67-year old American to cover up the rank incompetence of his millionaire pool guy with the inside contract.

We're investigating this toxic pollution of our justice system. And I told Pirro that, if she’s still investigating vandalism of federal property in D.C., we have strong leads on a recidivist culprit who caused hundreds of millions of dollars of damage by bulldozing the White House and scrawling graffiti on the Kennedy Center without permission.

I stand with Canada, not Trump. I stand with Ukraine, not Trump. I stand with NATO, not Trump. I stand with the free world, not Trump.

You?

[Phil Shellabarger @shella70542]

The only thing Trump knows of our founders was their tolerance of slavery. Period.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

More idiocy from Trump.

Just fyi: Lake Ontario comes from the Native American name for the lake, and it's been called that since the founding. The Canadian province is named after the lake.

"Lake Ontario" is a far more authentically American name than, say, "Mar-a-Lago."

[Phil Shellabarger @shella70542]

Gee Tom. Your President told me that killing their leader and obliterating their nuclear stockpile would cripple Iran. Instead they control the straight of Hormuz and are bombing our bases in the region. NOW you’re applying economic pressure?

[Tom Cotton @SenTomCotton]

Economic pressure is the single best tool to cripple Iran’s radical regime.

Thankful @SecScottBessent took action.

[Sarah Ironside 💙 @SarahIronside6]

Just a reminder that a public school can’t even give your kid a Tylenol without your express consent, but they were somehow able to perform gender reassignment in class. I fucking hate that I live and breathe around people who believe this shit.

[Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson]

Except for losing control of the Strait, losing our bases in the region, strengthening the control of the Iranian regime over its suffering people, starving our sailors, running through our stockpiles of precision weapons, and giving Iran control of the global oil market. Big win.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

"The public is moving away from Trump. He is a flailing president presiding over a failing administration. But he remains a very dangerous president. And his administration is becoming ever more radical in its authoritarian projects."

Most people will say 6…!!!

But only the sharp ones will spot the real answer. 👀🤣

👇 What’s your answer?

[Phil Shellabarger @shella70542]

Trump administration set to spend at least $900 million on White House construction . WTF!!! This is taxpayer money. Your money. My money. What happened to Trump’s promise to pay for his ballroom? Gone the way of all his promises, into thin air. ⁦ https://t.co/lacmiBpraO

[Phil Shellabarger @shella70542]

The Senate’s Shameful Acquiescence to Todd Blanche as Attorney General . Of course Arkansas’s two Trump toadies voted with the majority to confirm. So much for an independent DOJ or the Rule of Law. https://t.co/rj9vnwxoTv

It’s an ice cube tray. Fill it with water, put in your freezer and presto, you have ice.

[Sweet Nectar. @AmazingEyes1122]

People keep guessing, but no one gets it right. Do you know what this is?

[Maine @TheMaineWonk]

In less than 2 years these clowns:

- Renamed Department of Defense the Department of War.

- Burned through 70% of munitions and a near $1 trillion budget.

- “Ended” 8 made up wars and lost the 1 war they actually started

A national fucking disgrace.

[Phil Shellabarger @shella70542]

Trump destroyed the East Wing saying that he and his friends would pay for his ballroom. This was a lie as the taxpayers will be footing the $300million bill. Republicans have no problem with this? Likewise if a Dem decides to destroy the West Wing? https://t.co/qtVu3OQFXy
