@Martina What's next for northern Minnesota? A nuclear waste storage facility? The Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) is 1.1 million acres of pristine, no-motors wilderness + 1100 lakes & is part of the 3-million-acre Superior National Forest. Are we so desperate we need to destroy BWCA?

This should be a no brainer but alas…
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS

BREAKING: The Senate just passed the legislation allowing the devastation of the Boundary Waters. The motion passed 50-49, and now goes to Donald Trump’s desk. The way Republicans passed this bill that prevents future administrations from issuing protections for Superior National Forest, so this pristine land will be exploited in perpetuity unless Congress intervenes to reverse this decision. The state of Minnesota can still block the Chilean mining corporation from operating in Superior National Forest and protect the Boundary Waters from pollution.

@RonFilipkowski (In Chandler Bing voice): Could Congress BE anymore irrelevant? We might as well not even have a Congress.

We still can't find anyone to tell us how much has been spent on the war. DOD won't tell us. The president won't tell us. His budget director won't tell us. They know the number, but they don't want the American people to know it. x.com/atrupar/status…
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

MERKLEY: Would I be in the ballpark to say we've already spent at least $50 billion on the war? VOUGHT: I wouldn't want to make a characterization of that at this point MERKLEY: As the most knowledgeable person in the executive branch on the budget, I would expect you to have pretty good numbers on that, so I'm a little disappointed in that answer

@RonFilipkowski I'm sure that in the middle east, they make little to no distinction between Israel and the US in terms of who is waging war on their countries. Why do they, "hate us?" Gee, I can't imagine why. We create our own problems.

@TheRickWilson It looks to me like Trump simply has the country's checkbook. He spends or denies spending when and wherever it suits him. Congress has, "the power of the purse?" What a joke that really is. I hope the next president understands how much power they REALLY have.

Don’t forget, the taxes stolen from you today are only a portion of what is actually taken. Inflation, regulation, sales taxes… the theft by the State is endless, and endangers the future of every citizen.

@RandPaul "WELL REGULATED" are words #2 & #3 of the (one sentence) 2nd Amendment. Your oath to the Constitution requires you to fulfil the "well regulated" part.

Government employees take an oath to support and defend the entire Constitution. It is not their job to decide when and which of your rights count on any given day.

.@RandPaul: "In the wake of a federal officer shooting and killing a protester who was legally carrying a holstered firearm, a succession of federal officials rushed to declare that citizens cannot exercise their 1st and 2nd Amendment rights at the same time."

@SenRandPaul Is there anything that restricts our liberties more than an unfair tax system? How does it make sense that I pay more in federal taxes than Tesla ($0), United ($0), and Disney ($0)?

Senator Rand Paul@SenRandPaul·
What we really should aspire to in this 250th year of our nation is a government that stops asking how much restriction on our liberties it can get away with and instead asks how it can protect and promote our all our rights, including our right to keep and bear arms.

I drive a minivan with a license plate that literally spells out OVRSITE.  We need to stop measuring success by what we say we'll do and start measuring it by what we actually deliver.

@JoJoFromJerz @atrupar This will be a good test of the political skills of Senate Dems. Can they figure out procedural, or other leverage, tactics to block Cannon's confirmation? You know, the way Republicans are able to block Dems when Republicans are in the minority.

a very confused Trump: "Look at Justice Ginsburg. She was not exactly a young woman. The election was taken. They had a Democrat who could've appointed a liberal justice. About two minutes after the election, she went out." (Ginsburg died in September 2020, when Trump was president.)

@Martina Most Americans don't pay very close attention to "politics" until the results literally show up on their own doorstep, grocery store, or at the gas pump.

Trump: "I had the greatest year, the greatest opening year. I ended 8 wars. The greatest economy ever. But even when you have a great president, they tend to lose the midterms. It doesn't make sense to me. We've had the greatest year in the history of the presidency, first year. We should be given credit."

@grahamformaine The filibuster, and political parties, are NOT part of the Constitution. The filibuster is a made-up rule that must be reauthorized with each new legislative session. The US government was never designed to be a two-party system.

@ninaturner If campaign "donations," PACs, and SuperPACs were illegal, none of this would be a problem. All politicians would be beholden ONLY to the voters. Let's fix the root of the problem.

@WalshFreedom If they weren't propped up by other western-style governments by giving them advanced weapons and LOTS of financial "aid," I wonder how long that "miracle" would have lasted? And freedom and democracy for whom? Certainly not the Palestinians who live there.

Not a day goes by that I’m not asked why I so love the state of Israel. Even now, as so many chickenshit Democratic politicians are running away from Israel bcuz they’re so afraid of their base. Not me. I love Israel bcuz for 78yrs that tiny sliver of land has been a miracle of freedom, democracy, fighting spirit, & entrepreneurship in a vast sea of Islamic tyranny & terrorism. I criticize Israel when it’s warranted, I’m not a fan of Netanyahu, but I’ll always love Israel.🇮🇱

@RoKhanna The median INDIVIDUAL income in the US in 2026 is $62k/year. Literally 1/2 of all workers make less than that. They're not big political "donors," so neither party works very hard for those people. There's a HUGE political hole that true working-class candidates could fill.

Mario Nawfal@MarioNawfal

🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING: MTG and Ro Khanna are forming a political coalition... Let that sink in. They disagree on almost everything. But they've found enough common ground to start: the Epstein files, the Iran war, foreign aid, and a $40 trillion debt run up by the same bipartisan center that's been in charge for decades. Khanna put it bluntly: The Vice President shouldn't be reporting to Netanyahu before reporting to Congress. This isn't a friendship. It's a signal that the old left-right coalition holding Washington together is starting to crack from both ends simultaneously. @RoKhanna @mtgreenee
