🚨ICYMI: Yesterday, I officially filed to be on the ballot to run for Governor of Iowa!

I’m grateful to the thousands of Iowans who helped us get on the ballot.

I’ll keep traveling our state, sharing my vision, and talking to Iowans about how we can take Iowa to new heights!

An easy tax return isn't always an easy tax situation. And no, unless you're trained to do so, you probably shouldn't be filing your own tax return because you don't know what you don't know about it. #TaxTwitter

🚨 JD VANCE SAID IT PERFECTLY: "If the media wants to tell the truth, they ought to tell the truth that a group of left-wing radicals have been working tirelessly, sometimes using domestic TERROR techniques, to try to make it impossible for the president of the United States to do what the American people elected him to do, which is enforce our immigration laws!"

Sentiments of Venezuelans

I’m going to say this once, and I don’t care if it makes people uncomfortable.

If you have never lived in Venezuela
If you did not grow up there
If you did not watch your country collapse in real time
If you did not stand in food lines
If you did not watch your parents lose everything they built
If you did not have to leave your home with nothing

Then shut the fuck up.

You do not have an opinion.
Your opinion does not matter.
And you don’t get to lecture anyone about what’s happening there.

I’m Venezuelan.
I lived there most of my life until my early twenties.
I watched my country go from a functioning democracy to full blown socialism right in front of my eyes.

This is not politics to me.
This is trauma.

Before socialism, Venezuela was not perfect, but it worked.
There was trade.
There was money coming in.
There was investment from the US.
There were jobs.
There was food.
There was medicine.

My family had five businesses.
We had our home
We had investments.
We had a future.

Then the government started nationalizing everything.
Private companies were taken.
Foreign investors were pushed out.
Imports were blocked.
Price controls destroyed production.
Corruption exploded.

And everything died.

Not slowly.
Violently.

People didn’t suddenly become poor because of “capitalism” or “the US” or whatever bullshit slogan people like to repeat online.

They became poor because socialism destroyed incentives, destroyed production, destroyed trust, and destroyed hope.

People today in Venezuela are not debating ideology.
They are trying to survive.

They are trying to find food.
Trying to find medication.
Trying to keep their families alive.

So when I see people in the West posting from comfortable homes, full fridges, stable currencies, and safe streets talking about “imperialism” or “US bad” or “Trump this or that”

No.
It’s not complicated.
You’re just ignorant.

China is not rebuilding Venezuela.
Russia is not rebuilding Venezuela.
Cartels are not rebuilding Venezuela.

They are stealing.
They are extracting.
They are draining what’s left.

If the US comes in and reinvests
If refineries get rebuilt
If infrastructure gets restored
If imports open back up
If food, water, and medicine become accessible again
If people can work and earn with dignity

Then yes.
Let them take all the oil they want.

Because at least something gets built instead of destroyed.

This is something to celebrate.
Not because it’s perfect.
But because for the first time in a long time, there is hope.

Hope that families can eat.
Hope that people don’t have to flee their country.
Hope that Venezuela can function again.

If you’ve never lived through a country collapsing
If you’ve never watched socialism destroy everything around you
If you’ve never had to leave your home because staying meant starvation

Then again
Shut the fuck up.

This isn’t theory.
This isn’t politics.
This is lived experience.

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Sen. Markwayne Mullin ERUPTS after Bernie Sanders blocks a bipartisan bill to give kids fighting cancer more treatment options

I have NEVER seen him this mad.

"He's literally KILLING kids in front of us because of his political movement. And it is ridiculous. Therefore, I object."

"He wants to hold kids that are dying of rare diseases and pediatric cancer. Want to hold them HOSTAGE to now try to push his agenda farther, and not go through the committee of jurisdiction, but hold the kids HOSTAGE!?"

"Everything the Senator from Vermont just talked about was POLITICAL. I'm talking about LIVES. I'm talking about giving kids a chance to live an extra day or a lifetime!"

"That's what I'm talking about. This has nothing to do with politics. Nothing. Nothing I'm talking about has to do with politics. This has to do with kids. Yet my Senator from Vermont wants to make it about politics."

"You know, this time of the year at Christmas, we talk about Grinches all the time, right? They go in and they steal the kids' gifts. But at the end of the show, their hearts grow bigger and they give the gifts back. And they allow kids to be excited about Christmas morning."

"What's happening right here in front of us, the Grinch is stealing kids' lives. And they're stealing hope from the families. Hope from the families that might have an opportunity just to try for a political agenda."

"And I hope to God that every single family that's going through this will hold the Senator from Vermont accountable. And the state of Vermont will hold him accountable, too, because he's playing with kids' lives."

@DOGEai_tx @EricLDaugh It's a refund on tax withholding. Taxes that have already been paid are now being refunded. It is not new money.
