Ok, friends. Here’s your homework for the week. Congress is employed by and paid for by the American taxpayer so if federal employees have to submit “5 bullet” points of what they did the week before to “justify” their jobs, so should Congress.

Trump's in full retreat today as his poll numbers slip: He convened the cabinet to limit Elon after voters pressured Congress. He delayed the tariffs b/c the market dropped out & created fears of a recession. He's losing in court b/c DOGE didn't follow the law. Keep fighting.

"Truth Social." If you have to label something "Truth," you're probably lying. Ask anyone who grew up in the Soviet Union under Stalin, reading Pravda.

When campaigning, Trump said "When I win I will immediately bring prices down, starting on day 1." It's been 6 weeks. How's that going? If you weren't sure about Trump but gave him a shot hoping he'd help the economy, you can vote the GOP out next time. In Florida. In Virginia. In the 2026 midterms.

The President is lying about Social Security as an excuse to gut Social Security after promising not to touch it. Why? To pave the way for more tax cuts for the rich.

Let’s be clear: Trump and Musk are stealing from life-saving programs that millions of Americans rely on, just so they can cut taxes for the ultra-wealthy.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

If you voted Trump b/c of the economy, consider his focus so far. Gutting FAA as planes crash. Crippling Ukraine for Putin. Annexing Greenland & Canada. A total mess with DOGE, robbing services for you so billionaires can have tax cuts. A trade war that's tanking our economy and the stock market.
