No wonder Trump is taxing cars and raising prices—it's because he doesn't care.

@repgreglandsman.bsky.social & Rep. Marc Veasey discuss Trump's tariffs on cars in this deleted scene from this week's episode of "The Fly-In."

Watch the full episode on Youtube or wherever you stream podcasts.

Soybeans are the number one crop grown in Missouri—and more than 60% of soy products are exported to nations around the world.

President Trump’s tariff taxes are going to hurt Missouri farmers and force another bailout from taxpayers.
“One crop away from bankruptcy”

Republican Senator Thom Tillis warns Trump’s tariffs will do “irreparable” damage to farmers.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

Despicable.
Jose Barco, a decorated U.S. Army veteran once based out of Fort Carson who served 2 tours in Iraq, was taken into custody last month by ICE because his citizenship papers, which were supposed to be processed while he was in the Army, were lost.

I'm currently in a Budget Committee markup. This is what Republicans want to do:

❌ Slash $880 billion from Medicaid
❌ Cut $230 billion from food assistance
❌ Hand $4.5 trillion in tax breaks to billionaires & big corporations

This is a Republican rip off.

"Future generations will marvel that it wasn’t China’s actions that eroded US standing. Instead, it was a US president and the billionaire he unleashed to shoot first and aim later, eliminating an institution that is a cost-effective example of what once distinguished the US from our adversaries."

Isn't it strange that we are blaming Mexico for this country's drug addiction? If the demand wasn't here, they would have no one to sell it to. How about fixing our problem and taking responsibility like grown ass adults?

I’ve been advocating for the closure of #Guantanamo for years. This idea of turning it into an immigrant detention camp is cruel, morally reprehensible, and raises even more concerns about civil rights and liberties.

DeepSeek's launch reveals what Silicon Valley can accomplish when ego and noise take a backseat to engineering and purpose. It’s a humbling reminder that true innovation thrives in focus, not hype.
IMO, Silicon Valley has lost its way and needs a wakeup call. And it looks like they might have gotten one today?

Less hype. Less arrogance. Less greed. Less playing at political nonsense.

More engineering. More science.

Get back to producing real innovations that benefit society.
