    Sen. James Lankford Retweeted Senator Ted Cruz

    Proud to join @SenMikeLee @TedCruz @RandPaul & others to co-sponsor a #rescissions package that would rescind about $15 Billion from the $1.3 Trillion Omnibus spending bill in March. With a $21 Trillion federal debt, we have to start cutting somewhere. #FederalFumbleshttps://twitter.com/SenTedCruz/status/1009098617846685697 …

    Sen. James Lankford added,

    “A great advantage of this #rescissions package is that Democrats are unable to filibuster it, and if Republicans stand together, we can start cutting back on unnecessary spending & provide much needed fiscal sanity to our country.” #fiscalsanity pic.twitter.com/LEHRqyKYYg

        It's $2 trillion out of medicare/medicaid, they're unbelievable, it's astonishing that working class people still think he's "on their side". Wait till the full reality of the trade war kicks in and we head into a full on recession, he's destroying the economy, it's a fact.

        Because hey, when you can take health insurance and food stamps away from poor kids to pay for a massive tax cut for the most wealthy, you gotta do it right? Right?

        The best thing you could do to stem the RED ink is to rescind the tax cuts you gave the WEALTHIEST among us! They have NOT passed those benefits down to workers like you promised....so take it back!! Rescind the #TaxScam

        We all know what the cuts are, you are trying to totally destroy the poor, the elderly and the disabled. All of this when you should put a stop to Trumps golf trips and cut SS protection to his corrupt kids would be a good start.

        I found a copy of something Mike Lee posted online and I tweeted you and the senators. I’m not an experienced Twitter person so I wasn’t sure how to link it here. Maybe you can do that.

        Sickened by the harm being done by you,Cruz, the president, and repubs. I have no doubt your cuts will harm “the least of these” while the rich get richer. Stop the separation and incarceration of children-INCLUDING TODDLERS AND BABIES IN DIAPERS-created by trump and his cult.

        I'm not against the $15B in savings, but that's nothing to what should be cut.

        Not even a drop in the bucket from what I have seen. The rapidly rising spending/deficits/debt should also be a major political scandal right now. I hope @SenTedCruz, @SenMikeLee, and @SenatorLankford don't stop here and aren't going to pretend this will even dent the problem.

        So you’re coming for social security, Medicare, and other social programs. While you separate babies and small children from their parents While you fund the largest defense budget ever. While you cut taxes for the most wealthy in our country. Disgusting.

        How about some specifics? What is being cut? You need to clarify. If you're messing with social security then cut me a check for all the money taken out of my check. I don't trust any of you to do right by working people.

        So..........why did you vote for such a shitty bill in the first place? And does the rescissions package mean that the top 1% won’t receive 84% of the benefits of the #GOPTaxScam? One more question you won’t answer: why does Jared Kushner still have a job?
