Phoenix Ikner, the 20-year-old who killed 2 people and injured 6 others in the school shooting at Florida State University yesterday, was a registered Republican Trump MAGA supporter.

America checking its credit report:

Your credit score: 267

“Your score has dropped 368 points this month.”

Reason(s) for decline:
1. Too many credit inquiries
2. Too many late payments
3. European Union called your bluff
4. China is 5k years old and got time

I co-sponsored Senator Ossoff’s amendment to ban DOGE from cutting Social Security benefits. Sadly, Washington Republicans voted the amendment down. I won't stop fighting to protect Georgia seniors' hard earned benefits.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.
