For context, roughly 25% of our total national debt incurred over the last 230 years actually occurred during the 4 years of the Trump administration. That's right. 25% of our entire national debt, all during the Trump years.

House Republicans are on a mission to end wasteful Washington spending.
From now on, if a federal bureaucrat wants to spend it, they have to come before us to defend it.

A lot of “Morant needs to do the Dunk Contest”! after last night. Every night is a dunk contest, just watch their games. And its better when on people. These are the best ones. You can’t top these. Ever.

Missouri Republicans adopt dress codes requiring female legislators to keep their arms concealed. Uh…what country is this? What century is this? Ridiculous.👇

Amazing when the President is a Democrat suddenly the GOP act concerned about the budget. Trump added almost 2T a year to the deficit w/o any of them saying a word about it.

If you put yourself in a position to defend a political party, you’re destined to look like a fool. Instead defend principles.

On a personal note, I’ve had a great week coming off of Christmas and New Year’s. I hope everyone else did too. Got my thoughts together. Clear mind. Good sunshine ☀️ weather. Ate better. Ran more. Behaved. Well behaved more than usual. It’s good to regroup every now and then.

I’m beginning to think this election is rigged. They should consider calling in the My Pillow guy to audit the votes. Or maybe they should just vote for him.

You’re not in a good negotiating position when everyone you are negotiating with knows your willing to do/give whatever it takes to win. What if he does give enough to get enough of the holdouts’ vote? There is always that “last” new person who then is empowered to negotiate.

From @WSJopinion: Kevin McCarthy was willing to weaken the speakership to win it. If he’d spent more time working with rational lawmakers to get like-minded candidates elected, he wouldn’t have ended up in this position, writes @WillHurd. on.wsj.com/3Qkh7ex

And where’s the protagonist in this drama? It’s antagonist vs. antagonist. I mean come on. Who are we all supposed to be rooting for here.

Y’all just think about how great things would be if there were more Independents in Congress. Right now, if there were 5-10 of them in the House, they would effectively be in charge without all the party baggage. And in the Senate, it would only take 2-3 to run that chamber.

I don’t personally know these main characters in this ordeal (McCarthy, Gaetz, Boebert, etc.) but they do all seem like they deserve each other.

Interesting to observe how a two-party system allows a small extremist faction to hold an entire legislature hostage.

Lying has become such a common part of politics that we've just baked it into our understanding of how politics works. George Santos is an extreme case, but more and more, people shrug it off: "Of course politicians lie." It doesn't have to be that way. It shouldn't be that way.
