OBAMA: When I was president, all these Republicans are all deficits, deficits, debt, debt. You got to do something about it. And now—$40 trillion—Crickets. Somehow deficits only matter when a Democratic president is in office

Obama: "The guy has become billions of dollars wealthier in office. Nobody disputes this! It's just -- how do you do that when you're supposed to be looking out for you? And the worst part of it not a single Republican in Congress has done anything to stop it."

He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

If you’re advising POTUS to declare martial law, or use other executive powers in an attempt to interfere with a lawful election that you’re expecting to lose, you’re a piece of shit human and an even worse American. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Zelensky is a far better defender of constitutional democracy than Trump, and would make a much better President of the United States than the current occupant.

NEW TROY JACKSON AD 🔥 Susan Collins spent years perfecting that “reasonable moderate” act. Then ProPublica dropped the receipts: A defense contractor funneled $150,000 through a shell company to a pro-Collins super PAC while Collins pushed for $32 MILLION in naval contracts.

It now costs the truck drivers on average $1,200 to fill up a single tank because of the war in Iran. Mike Rogers said it's a win-win-win. Are you winning?

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵
