The GOP is full of nonsense! -BIDEN inherited TRUMP'S economic mess. -BIDEN FIXED TRUMP'S mess. -TRUMP screwed it up again! The tariffs are not Biden's, the tax cuts for the rich are not Biden's, the Iran War also not Biden's, higher medical costs, not Biden's. This is TRUMP's economy and it's BAD! #DemsUnited

REMINDER: Radical progressive Democrats allowed our homeland to suffer because they want to have open borders and keep criminals on our streets.

MASSIVE BREAKING: A witness swore under penalty of perjury that Donald Trump threatened a young girl, telling her she could “disappear like another 12-year-old female,” and then threatened to kill her entire family, according to Epstein-related court records. This allegation appears in Dataset 9 of Epstein File EFTA01250883.pdf. This is sworn testimony. If the witness fabricated this account, they would face multiple years in federal prison for perjury.

@RepMarkPocan @davidhogg111 Yes. The US has too many guns. This makes suicide much easier (recall that the majority of gun deaths are suicides, while mass shootings account for less than 2% of US gun deaths). We can significantly reduce suicides by reducing the number of guns.

Why does the United States experience so much more gun violence than other countries? @davidhogg111 explains.

@SenMcCormickPA @POTUS No, those three countries were justified in refusing. Trump & Netanyahu’s war of choice with Iran was unwise, not part of NATO defense, and atrociously negotiated. History will smile on Spain, Italy, and Germany, while condemning US & Israel, on this one.

America has had Europe’s back for generations. We weren’t asking for troops in Iran, just flyover and refueling rights. Some NATO allies stepped up. Others, like Spain, Italy and Germany, fell short. @POTUS is right to be frustrated.

@RepScottPerry All firefighters should take comfort knowing that President Trump is leading a program to RAKE OUR FOREST FLOORS, *preventing future forest fires*. Trump is so brilliant!

@RepChipRoy @RepScottPerry Has Donald mocked Jimmy Friesenhahn’s disability yet? If Jimmy said anything negative about our Felon-in-Chief, that’s exactly what Donald would do.

This is Jimmy Friesenhahn, U.S. Marine Corps veteran and father. A year ago in San Antonio, Jimmy attempted to stop an illegal alien from carrying a gun into a bar while working security, resulting in the illegal alien SHOOTING him, leaving Jimmy PARALYZED. We must secure the border and interior to STOP preventable tragedies for good.

@timburchett @RepScottPerry If Spirit had merged with JetBlue, maybe they BOTH would have gone bankrupt. We all know what an economic dunce Trump is. Who else can lose money running a casino? Who else would start an unnecessary war causing jet fuel & gas prices to spike, weakening the whole country?
Douglas Farrar@DouglasLFarrar

JetBlue's own founder said in leaked audio that the airline may go bankrupt this year. JetBlue hasn't turned a profit in six years. Now imagine them absorbing Spirit's debt while jet fuel doubles. The merger wouldn't have saved Spirit. It would have taken JetBlue down with it.

Rep. Dan Goldman@RepDanGoldman·
Trump ran for office promising to end forever wars, lower costs, and release the Epstein files. Instead, our cost of living is at an all time high, gas prices are skyrocketing, he’s dragged us into an unnecessary and illegal war with Iran, and he continues to impede the release of the unredacted Epstein files. It's plain as day that Trump has failed to live up to his promises, and has measurably made life worse for millions of Americans.

NYT: "You've been talking on your show about whether Trump is the Antichrist" Tucker Carlson: "I have not said that" NYT: You said, "Here's a leader mocking the Gods of his ancestors, mocking the God of Gods, and exalting himself above them. Could this be the Antichrist?" TC: "I actually did not say 'could this be the Antichrist?'" NYT: ***plays clip of him saying exactly that*** TC: "I don't know where that comes from, but I know those words never left my lips"

2022: “Stop overreacting, they won’t overturn Roe.” They did. 2023: “Stop overreacting, they won’t let women die rather than get an abortion.” They did. 2024: “Stop overreacting, they won’t arrest women for miscarriages.” They did. 2025: “Stop overreacting, they won’t turn women into incubators.” They did. 2026: “Stop overreacting, they won’t attack mifepristone.” They did, today. Now: “Stop overreacting, they won’t go after birth control next.” They will.

@RepScottPerry Conway says "You’re lying, Scott, you’re lying ... That’s the problem with the Republican Party is that they are suffused with lies." He was talking to a different Scott, but what he said applies well to Perry. x.com/bunnibytz/stat…

@RepScottPerry Trump is losing popularity fast. Scott Perry: when will you disavow Trump and condemn his lies, his corruption, and his incompetent leadership? (Not primarily because such positions are popular, but because they are moral and right.) x.com/madrid_mike/st…
Mike Madrid@madrid_mike

Republicans are at 68% approve 34% disapprove on Trump. The MAGA swamp fever has broken. For 9 of the last 10 years it was rare to see Trump drop below 88% approval. He’s 20 points below that. The cult is collapsing.

America has more than $1 trillion in energy investment stuck on the sidelines because Washington takes 5 or 6 years to say yes to permitting requests. My NEW bill cuts the red tape and gets shovels in the ground in order to unleash American energy infrastructure.

This exchange between @SenBlumenthal and Trump’s judicial nominees is utterly astounding. If you can watch this and still think this country isn’t falling into authoritarianism and fascism under Donald Trump, then you are not being honest with yourself.

@timburchett @RepScottPerry The Senate’s most vital job in recent decades was to convict Trump of high crimes and misdemeanors in his two impeachment trials, and it failed.
