I thought this was a parody account! Then did a spit take when I realized @ChuckGrassley was chiding @SpeakerRyan on #Corporatewelfare when he helped pass the #GOPTaxScam Can't make this crap up!

You gave away $1.5 TRILLION in welfare to corporations and millionaires and billionaires in the #GOPTaxScam . And you know “welfare reform” is Ryan-speak for privatization of Medicaid, Medicare, the VA, Social Security, etc., right?

Ethanol subsidies are also corporate welfare... for farmers. And as an Iowa corn-grower, I should know. Let’s not just demonize Wall Street when rural areas love to feed at the government trough just as much!

Nor did the billionaires YOU rewarded with #tasscam. Re-read your oath. #Countrybeforeparty.

And while you're at it, why don't you protect the workers who perform the back-breaking work of picking our produce, often to the detriment of their own health and safety..

I'm sorry, didn't you vote yes for the tax break for billionaires bill? I seem to remember you did. Now you care about farmers?

But you'll take their money...
