Trump is set to visit Walter Reed on Tuesday for his 3rd checkup in 13 months.
The White House touts reports he's in "exceptional" health. Outside physicians said there are legitimate health questions about the nearly 80-year-old president.

Its wild that Scott DesJarlais (R-TN) doesn’t get more coverage. He’s admitted to multiple affairs with patients while working as a doctor, encouraged a mistress to get an abortion despite being pro-life, and threatened his first ex-wife with a gun multiple times
He’s still been in Congress since 2011

What even does this first sentence mean? Obama literally negotiated with Iran. Whether you liked the outcome or not, it happened.
Speaker Mike Johnson@SpeakerJohnson
President Trump is the ONLY one who could have gotten Iran — the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism — to the negotiating table. We are greatly encouraged to learn a PEACE DEAL in Iran is underway — and look forward to learning more about the specifics. Under President Trump’s leadership, our nation is stronger, more respected on the global stage, and safer than ever before.

The combined value of the trades ranges from $50,008 to $190,000. trib.al/6L35bpf

Reminder: we can make DC its own state AND make Puerto Rico a state AND still keep the United States at an even 50 states IF we merge the Dakotas into a single state of Dakota AND combine Idaho & Wyoming into your choice of Idahoming or Wydaho. (I prefer "Wydaho.")

The Trump-Vance Regime is U.S. history's most explicitly PRO-FRAUD administration.
Fraudster after fraudster gets a Trump-Vance Pardon.
Trump & @JDVance empower "the era of unchecked fraud against the American taxpayer," @ScottBradyPA.
Your @WHFraudTF is, itself, a fraud.
