Warnock: "If you live in Claxton, Georgia, if you live in rural America, even if you have wealth and resources and you're having a stroke and there's no ICU within a reasonable distance because of these draconian cuts, your life is in peril. We can do better than this."

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.

They are openly saying this.

Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

Magaziner: How many US military veterans have you deported?

Noem: We have not deported military veterans.

Magaziner: We are joined on zoom by a gentleman who is an army combat veteran who was shot twice while serving our country. You deported him to Korea.

Reporter: You acknowledge that CPI when you took office was 3%. In September, the last month which we have data, it was also 3%.

Leavitt: No, it's 2.5%.

Reporter: Not in September. It's 3%.

Leavitt: Inflation is down

Collins: It’s where it was

Leavitt: Everything I'm telling you is the truth, and you don't want to report it because you want to push untrue narratives about the president.

FOX’S DOOCY: “Is Operation Southern Sphere about drugs? or is it about oil?”🤔

🔥 @repdeliaramirez to @KristiNoem: “Bottom Line: You lie with impunity. You reject checks & balances. You ignore Congress & the courts… you can either resign, Trump will fire you, or you’ll be impeached.

You’re going to be held accountable. I’m going to make sure of that.”

China was the largest export market for American farmers in 2024. They bought 27 metric tons of soybeans last year. They stopped buying in 2025 when Trump started his trade war. These are simple, obvious, basic facts. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Leavitt: "President Trump convinced President Xi to continue purchasing again American soybeans, which is something China wasn't doing under the last administration because they had no respect for President Biden or the country at the time."

Statement from the House Select Committee on China, chaired by Republican Rep. John Moolenaar. Trump is selling us out to a foreign country. Again.

Trump has repeatedly put farmers out of business. Has driven up their costs for everything, including labor. Has them begging him for welfare every year. Tells them he knows more about their business than they do. Lies to them. And they still vote Republican and send him money.

Rand Paul: "This is an insane policy. It's inconsistent. It's not war. It's not the way we've ever done this. If we can blow up a boat in the ocean, what about when they get to Miami & put it in a truck? Can you shoot a grenade launcher at the truck? No! We arrest people b/c sometimes we're wrong."

There’s no way this won’t go down in history as atrocities. A dark time for our nation. There’s no proof of who’s on those boats, of where they’re going (not likely the USA), or of what they’re carrying.
WELKER: Is there any hard evidence showing this particular boat was headed to the US?

TOM COTTON: That didn't come up in my briefing

WELKER: Are you comfortable having the US target a boat that you're not sure is heading to the US?

COTTON: I'm not just comfortable with it -- I want to continue it

The US government is summarily executing people on a weekly basis without telling the American people any of their names or presenting any proof of their guilt, for alleged crimes that do not carry the death penalty in the US.
