Today, Hillary and I were honored to be on the South Side of Chicago to celebrate the opening of the Obama Presidential Center. The Obama Center tells the story of eight years of progress, and is a stirring reminder of the power—and responsibility—we have as citizens shape a better future.
Congratulations, Barack and Michelle, on this extraordinary accomplishment!

To George and Laura, Bill and Hillary — we're grateful for your friendship, counsel, and devotion to this country. And to Joe and Jill, thank you for being on this journey with us.

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

@TiffanyMSmiley I imagine they were all talking about how much they missed the Jeffery Epstein parties.

The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act tackles some of the causes of the higher prices that are preventing too many Americans from realizing the dream of homeownership.
It’s just the latest item on Republicans’ agenda to address the cost of living.

Elon isn't stealing from me. Politicians like Adam Schiff are. They steal my money and give it to illegal aliens and SNAP grifters
Western Lensman@WesternLensman
Adam Schiff released a video fantasizing about what “we” could pay for “by the wealth of our first trillionaire." "$1 trillion, if we decided to distribute that equally among American households, your household would get $7,500..." Sounds downright utopian, Adam.

Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook incurred more than $1.3 million in legal and security expenses following President Donald Trump’s attempt to fire her in August from the Fed’s board, a new ethics filing revealed Thursday.
Outside organizations reimbursed Cook for those expenses, the filing shows.

Congress never voted to bulldoze the White House or for a dollar to build Trump’s golden Ballroom for the Epstein class (or anyone else). But now we learn that Trump’s bad architecture obsession is costing us all $600 million. Turn your illegal Qatari jet over to the people and we’ll sell it for $400 million and we’ll take the rest out of other illegal emoluments and slush funds, including the $1.776 billion fund for insurrectionists, and the Board of Peace, another unauthorized Trump fund bankrolled by money misallocated from the State Department.
MeidasTouch@MeidasTouch
New documents obtained by The Washington Post show the price to build the ballroom has ballooned to $600 million, up from the initial $200 million estimate, with more than half expected to be paid by U.S. taxpayers. wapo.st/4vOuwPD

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package:
Overturn Citizens United
Ban corporate PACs and super PACs
Ban members of Congress from trading stocks
Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this corrupt system.

@RepRaskin Tick tock…. That sound you hear is the DOJ closing in on your crimes.

People love to talk about Elon paying $11 billion in taxes.
Sounds like a lot of money.
It is 1.1 percent.
How do I get a 1.1% tax rate?

Raise your hand if you’d rather have the Senate debate the SAVE America Act than the 21st Century Road to Housing
Senate Republicans@SenateGOP
Senate Republicans are fighting to drive down housing costs. Our 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act breaks down barriers to homeownership so every American has an opportunity to achieve their American Dream.

The key to Social Security’s solvency isn’t cuts — it’s having everyone pay their fair share.
Congress should scrap the cap on contributions that’s currently set at $184,500 and require billionaires to contribute on all of their income, earned and unearned.

Reminder as you're traveling this summer:
Trump reversed a rule that required airlines to automatically refund you with CASH—not vouchers, not points—for canceled or severely delayed flights.
United Airlines and Delta Airlines each gave $1 million to Trump’s inauguration fund.

@ClimateWarrior7 Tell us where in the USA are these starving children? Over 80% of the children receiving SNAP benefits are obese. Look it up. USDA.gov

Millionaires or people with savings over 25k should not exist in a world where there are starving children.

@SenWarren Why don’t you show us the way and send the treasury a check for $10mil to demonstrate you really believe in paying your “fair share”?

If Elon Musk paid my ultra-millionaire wealth tax, we could pay for child care for all three and four year olds in America.
