“The notion that I or any of my colleagues ‘body slammed’ armed federal officers is absurd. DHS is lying because they know their agents were out of line.”

Trump claimed the Biden administration spent $8 million "making mice transgender." The White House tried to back up this number with records of funding for research into cancer, asthma, and HIV, some of which used *transgenic* (genetically modified) mice.
Trump Decried Millions Spent 'Making Mice Transgender.' It Was Cancer and Asthma Research
President Trump falsely claimed that Biden spent $8 million on 'making mice transgender,' but the real research was for human health.

No congressperson should sit quietly during Trump’s speech. Their responsibility is to openly revolt and disrupt the process.

Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now.

Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings.

I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them.

Get local media there.

Make it real.
