The original Limerick
Trump has sent out all the far right propagandists to lie about this, bc @seanhannity thinks his viewers are too stupid to believe HIM more than their own gas bills.
Trump just laid out how Iran's Strait of Hormuz gambit blew up in their face: they closed it to pressure the world, it cut off their own oil money, and now they're asking Trump to reopen it for peace talks. His answer -- no. 29 ships moved through under US control last night alone.

BREAKING: The White House says it was a win for Americans that @JDVance took away their healthcare bc they're not using it enough. Meanwhile, DOJ intervened to defend the richest man in the world for defrauding people.
Fighting fraud, arresting gang members, crushing terrorism, and much more. 🇺🇸 ✅ Another week of winning on behalf of the American people at the Trump White House.

WOWOW. Sounds like @KatieMiller thinks @JDVance has no convictions, bc he said much the same thing in 2016.
Sam Altman is just a phony who says anything to get ahead. No principles, no convictions.

After FIRST taking $10M of Medicaid money away from Florida's poorest children, @AshleyMoodyFL is now BRAGGING that she took SNAP and MORE Medicaid away from Floridians. A real rob from the poor to pay Elon Musk kind of gal.
I voted for No Tax on Tips, No Tax on Social Security, and the largest tax cut in American history. And I voted to make it easier for working families to buy a home.  It’s easy to talk. I’ve delivered results.

Let's assume @Nigel_Farage's speculation is correct. Why isn't he assailing UK's Five Eyes partner who incited the attack of it. Why didn't the US warn the Brits?
I have been warning both in and out of Parliament for many months about Iranian agents coming into the UK via small boats across the Channel. We deserve to be told the truth about the Fairford bomb plotters’ identities.

Daily reminder that @willchamberlain loves to show how intellectually feeble far right white men who claim to be "superior" actually are, here by claiming to believe a Trump claim that does not match verifiable data.

UNDERSTAND: What @AshleyMoodyFL is supporting here is fraud itself. If @AAGMcDonald were serious about fraud, he'd be prosecuting whoever in Florida -- and it could be Ashley!! -- stole $10M in Medicaid from Florida's poorest children.
Proud to have introduced this legislation in the Senate to codify the National Fraud Enforcement Division. Let’s get it done!!!

Please ask yourself two questions: 1. When was the last time that pre-election media were predicting huge Democrat losses? 2. When was the last time that pre-election media were NOT predicting huge Republican losses? Since the pattern is obvious, why do you let it be repeated in your own mind? This is war. Information war. Fear is the mind killer.

.@AAGMcDonald must investigate the DOJ now, for trying to help Elon defraud Europeans.
🚨 United States Files Request to Intervene in Case Brought by X Corp. and Elon Musk Seeking to Annul Decision by European Commission “The European Commission inappropriately attempted to expand its regulatory authority to reach American companies not present or operating within its jurisdiction,” said @AAGShumate. “We will not tolerate the European Commission engaging in regulatory overreach to try and control American engines of innovation and economic growth.” justice.gov/opa/pr/united-st…

🚨 It is peak cringe when PAID propagandists for conmen like @KatieZacharia pretend TRUMP is the victim when Trump almost got Mike Pence killed. You're apologizing for a coup attempt, Katie. GROTESQUE betrayal of the Constitution.
🚨 It is peak cringe when a former VP or White House staffer cashes in on conversations they were trusted to keep confidential. Presidential privilege isn’t a courtesy. It’s not yours to leak for a book, a podcast, or a payout. Protecting the Office of the President > Self-Aggrandizement.

Reminder: @aagmcdonald's schtick is to clapclapclap with unproven "fraud" they use to take YOUR BENEFITS away while ignoring the orders of magnitude larger fraud Trump is engaged in. This effort is, itself, as fradulent as DOGE and just as destructive.
Codifying fraud enforcement is not partisanship, it’s wise stewardship. Let’s get it done—for the taxpayer. 🇺🇸

BREAKING: Russian Useful Idiot @bennyjohnson thinks this is a presidential election year, which is literally the only way Dems would control immigration. I knew he was stupid but even that surprises me.
This chart is the only reason you need to vote Republican in the midterms. The second Democrats regain control, they will open the border and continue the replacement of the U.S. population with foreigners who hate our way of life. If they retake power, we will lose our country.

Hey, @AAGMcDonald? Would you get @AGToddBlanche to give Jack Smith permission to answer this question, why he investigated the money flow from money Trump raised CLAIMING he'd spend in election security but instead spent on bribing his friends? It sure seems like Trump defrauded MAGAts.
TUNE IN NEXT TUESDAY AT 9 a.m. ET. You won't want to miss it. 👀🍿

Hey @AAGDhillon? Why are you doing NOTHING when Texas effectively takes votes AWAY from Texans? When will you arrest @GregAbbott_TX for stealing votes from Americans like he were a foreign vote fraudster or, say, Donald Trump?

WOWOWOWO. Just wait until Benny and JD discover that African immigrant Elon Musk (who, to be sure, hates America) allegedly cheated on his work visa. They'll throw him right out.
Exactly. American companies should want to hire American workers. Enough importing foreigners who hate our country and our values. If we replace our labor force, we are speedrunning our own collapse. Companies who engage in H-1B fraud should be punished. More of this.
