The law couldn’t be clearer. I gave him weeks to review the language. I read it out loud to him for good measure. He still refused to say the simple truth: it is illegal for the president to weaponize the IRS against his political enemies.

The top holder of $TRUMP coin faced SEC charges for market manipulation, and was avoiding coming to the US for fear of arrest. Now his lawsuit is paused and he’s invited to a VIP dinner with Trump. This guy is bribing the President in plain sight. www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

What is one country also investing heavily in agricultural research? It's China. That's why this Administration's $600M cut to ag research makes no sense. We cannot go backward on investing in the future of agriculture. It impacts our farmers and our national security.

Jeffries: There are three big issues with the bill 1. It represents the largest cut to healthcare in American history. 2. It represents the largest cut to nutritional assistance in American history. 3. All of this is being done to enact the largest tax break for billionaires in American history.
