One of Trump's most repeated lies about Ukraine is his claim that Europe has provided only $100 billion in aid, while the U.S. has given $350 billion. This is an outright lie.

Terrifying.
That was the last vote of the 118th Congress. When the Senate returns in a couple weeks, Democrats will be cut down to 47 seats; Manchin, Sinema, Brown, Tester and Casey will be gone; Republicans will be in charge; and Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and Mike Lee will be committee chairmen.

By nearly every metric, Bidenomics was a roaring success. It would be a mistake to ignore or forget the lessons that can be gleaned from the administration’s robust economic policy.

The president’s domestic record wasn’t just extraordinary. It might put Democrats back in power in four years.

5. BAN GRIFTERS & "SCAM PACS."
I've written several times about "Scam PACs" which slap pictures of high-profile candidates on their spam emails to make it look like your money will go to that candidate when there's actually nothing in the text saying any such thing.
