Chronic liar @RepJeffries claims...
"Inflation is going up" (no, it isn't — it's down to its lowest level in four years).
Costs are "going up" (no, they aren't — Americans just saw the first drop in consumer prices in several years).
Stop lying, Hakeem. It's embarrassing.

JUST IN: Eric Swalwell says he is proud that Republicans make fun of him for sleeping with a Chinese spy, says they are just mad because he is a straight, white, Christian male.
Swalwell says his wife encouraged him to wear the Fang Fang story as a "badge of honor."
"I'm landing punches politically on them that sting. And frankly, I think a lot of Republicans look at me as like, oh, that's a straight, white, Christian male son of a cop."
"It's more of a betrayal to them."

No one hates drag queens. People hate drag queens talking to small kids.
No one hates trans activists. People hate trans activists talking to small kids.
No one cared about any of this until it involved small kids.
You want people to support your lifestyle? Then mind your business and stop trying to teach your values to other people’s kids.
These are not your children. Leave kids alone!

The Air Force was the best thing I’ve ever done in my life.
My experience in pilot training was character building. I hated it and loved it. It’s possible.
My pilot training class had two fighter’s to choose from. An F-16 and an A-10. My roomie got the A-10. I was #10 in the class so I chose the C-141 to Charleston. Again, best thing that ever happened to me.
My first combat experience was dropping the 82nd Airborne into Grenada on the first night. I was a brand new copilot.
I was quickly absorbed into the special operations world and worked closely with the SEALs and Delta. We did some shit.
I was an instructor pilot and flight examiner as a first lieutenant.
The C-141 took me to 70 countries in 20 years. Some incredible places that I never would’ve traveled to.
I’ve met the most amazing people and crew members over those years. My best friends in life.
I’ve been shot at by people who hate America. And I did it willingly with an American flag on my shoulder.
I’ve shared beers with our allies and we’ve laughed.
I’ve flown in combat multiple times and I enjoyed it.
The Air Force sent me to Italy to run the airspace during the Bosnian War.
The Air Force promoted me 3 times early.
I’m sure it’s not the same but I’ll forever be thankful for the United States Air Force.
Aim high. Fly, fight, win.

Another Air Force pilot training story. One morning, I was scheduled to fly a T-38 solo from my base in Columbus, MS. I took off at around 5:30 AM on a beautiful sunny morning. Just me and a jet. Wisps of clouds were hugging the Mississippi hills and fields as the sun rose. It was so peaceful and bucolic.
As I climbed out, the only aircraft in the air at the moment, I plugged in my Walkman, played Christopher Cross “Sailing” and ripped some killer aileron rolls. I owned the sky.
The power and freedom is indescribable. I was hooked.

Tariffs have been reinstated less than 24 hours after being blocked by the courts. This haphazard, on-again, off-again volatility hurts the economy making it nearly impossible for businesses to plan and invest.
No President should be able to unilaterally impose sweeping tariffs that hurt Long Island families. Congress must reassert its authority over trade policy.

@RepWilson Well how about you invite them into your home? Yeah, didn’t think so…

This decision is cruel and inhumane. These are folks who were escaping brutal dictatorships, gang violence, and turmoil.
These Cubans, Haitians, Venezuelans, and Nicaraguans came here legally and contribute to our South Florida community. Deporting them is a death sentence.

The GOP Big UGLY Bill is literally washing away
-$313 B in SNAP
-Medicaid coverage for 14 million Americans
-Pell Grants for over 4 million students
All for the benefit of their billionaire & corporate campaign donors.
Americans deserve better. That's what I'm fighting for.

@SenRubenGallego Shame on you. They’re removing people from these programs who have no business being on it. You should probably not even be in the Senate. You are probably there as a result of the documented corruption of the AZ voting system.
