    It seems like all we hear is bad news on TV. Here is some good news for a change. Our economy is improving, in part, due to #TaxReform. Unemployment is low. #Oklahoma revenue is 20% higher than expected.pic.twitter.com/AoMcGLg692

        Great News about Oklahoma, Senator Lankford. . . in my business, we are forced to turn-down new construction stats for the balance of 2018. Am operatings at 105% capacity right now, and . . the summer heat is moving in . . .pic.twitter.com/GT8Ryav3kC

        I've owned the homebuilding company for 34 years, but have actually been in the business for about 42 years. My father was in it for 30+ years. Grandfather for another 40 years.. I have said for about 15 years that we need to stop illegal alien labor. Hire American citizens 1/2pic.twitter.com/QgtobQkKCF

        . . . my accountant has ran the number for me and calcualted that using 100% Americna labor may add from $2k to $2,500 more to the cost of a $100K home here in Oklahoma. Perhaps more on either coast. It should provide another 750,000 jobs for American Citizens and their families.pic.twitter.com/ejcH9VWVpX

        Tiffany sweetheart, . . there isn't 50 pounds of steel AND aluminum in residential building. They're framed in wood (Douglas Fir timber or, Pine in some parts of the country), not steel. Bottom line however, do what's best for America, . . . not liberal ideology.pic.twitter.com/98fpt4UR4U

        Well Sweetheart,.....I’m not a home builder like you. That’s why I asked you the question. That was my mistake. Bottom line, it had nothing to do with ideology. You responded as a typical Trump douchebag!

        We don’t hear it on TV, Senator. We LIVE it. Education funding decimated in our state. Crumbling infrastructure. For profit prisons. Nonprofits competing for ever-decreasing funding. Oil & gas fat cats getting fatter while we suffer. Politicians telling lies to cover it up.

        Tax reform has no effect on the economy in the short run, in the long term, when our debt skyrockets it will affect interest rates which will be a net negative. Jesus we've seen this movie before.

        I kinda doubt that. I think one of his kids posts to twitter. I never see lanky respond unless a dutiful GOPer is virtually giving him a reach around.

        “ This case requires us to consider whether a public official may ‘block’ a person from his Twitter account in response to political views...and whether the analysis differs because [it is] POTUS. The answer to both questions is no.”http://fortune.com/2018/05/23/donald-trump-cant-block-people-on-twitter/ …
