Trump cult members wear blue suits and red ties. It's mandatory. Marco Rubio didn't get the memo. He looks sad about it.

If Joe Biden had intentionally crashed the stock market, created a global economic crisis, and wiped out $10 TRILLION in market value, Speaker Johnson would not be demanding we give him "space."
Mike Johnson is a craven coward and the worst kind of bootlicker.

Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds and the Iowa GOP don't understand what Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion means or they just don't care.
But ALL of them, benefit from DEI policies like these.
Working against their own best interests, and the interests of their families and friends is just plain dumb.

Trump and Vance's immature, bullying attack on Zelensky yesterday has caused the United States military to be less secure.
Those idiots have caused the United States to be less safe, @SenJoniErnst and @ChuckGrassley.
This is what happens when you put incompetents in the White House. You own it.

Iowa Medicaid recipients will be left without health care. The elderly will be left without nursing home and long term care living arrangements. Sick babies, pregnant moms, and children with cancer will die if House Republicans gut Medicaid.
This Budget Resolution is cruel and inhumane.

Where's your outrage, @chuckgrassley.bsky.social? President Musk is making the United States more vulnerable and subject to attack every day.

@senjoniernst.bsky.social denigrates USAID, stops funding, and devastates Iowa farmer bank accounts.
Ernst and Musk's rash and dangerous cuts negatively affect Iowa State University, Iowa non-profits, and Iowa agricultural industries.

Fire Ernst now.

Trump said all through the election that he knew nothing about Project 2025.
@senjoniernst.bsky.social and @chuckgrassley.bsky.social refused to discuss Project 2025. Tonight, both Senators voted to confirm and put the AUTHOR of Project 2025 in the White House as head of the OMB.
Craven LIARS.
