Nobody’s fooled. Senator Warren voted against the Stop Insider Trading Act this year.
It should be illegal for the President, VP, and lawmakers in Congress to own, buy, and sell individual stocks.

It’s amazing how politicians can spend decades in office, accomplish absolutely nothing, and somehow become millionaires. Meanwhile, the people paying their salaries can barely afford groceries.

Washington doesn't have a revenue problem. It has a spending problem. Over the last decade: Tax revenue: +65% Government spending: +92% The two parties fight over where the money should go, but they agree on one thing: spending beyond their means.

California admits they knowingly allow anyone in the world — illegal, foreigner, trespasser — to vote in federal elections.
NEW: Los Angeles County elections officials confirm in court filing that they have no way to verify U.S. citizenship for voters and they rely solely on a voter’s attestation when they check yes or no to being a U.S. citizen under penalty of perjury. This is part of ongoing lawsuit w/ Feds.

To every American, and to everyone watching France burn from abroad: Do not blame the French people for this. We never asked for it. We never voted for it. And the one time we were clearly asked, we said no. Here are the numbers your media won't show you. 70% of the French say there are too many immigrants in France today. 79% want a tougher immigration policy. 77% disapprove of the government's record on immigration. 83% want foreign criminals and long-term unemployed foreigners sent home. And no, it's not just the old. 69% of French 18 to 24 year olds support suspending legal immigration for three years. This is not a fringe. This is the French people. In 2005, we were asked if we wanted the European Constitution. 55% voted no. Three years later, our politicians passed the same text under another name, through parliament, without ever asking us again. That is modern France in one sentence. The people say no. The elites do it anyway. So who is responsible? The politicians who lied to us. A class of leaders formed in the same schools, the same forums, the same networks, loyal to each other before they are loyal to their nations. In 2017, at Harvard, Klaus Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum, bragged about his Young Global Leaders program in four words: "We penetrate the cabinets." He added that it was true in France. Emmanuel Macron was one of his Young Global Leaders. It's the same project in Brussels with Ursula von der Leyen and in Paris with Macron. Borders treated as an obstacle. Nations treated as relics. The people treated as a problem to be managed. What you are watching in France is not the French people failing. It is the end of the globalist project, an abject, quasi-communist dream of a world run by unelected planners. It is collapsing everywhere in Europe at once, and the West has to cut this cancer out before it takes the rest of the body with it. The peoples of Europe don't want this. They never did. So when you see our town halls burning, don't say "the French chose this." The French never chose this. They were forced into it. If you're French and you agree, repost this so the world hears it from us. If you're American, look at us carefully. Then choose differently on November 3rd.

Stopping pipelines to get elected, starting pipelines to stay elected. Can’t make this up
Gov. Maura Healey bragged about it: "Remember, I stopped two gas pipelines from coming into this state." Now your heating bill is through the roof and she wants you to blame Trump. She blocked those pipelines herself. She said so. Proudly. That's the left, every time. Break it, brag about breaking it, blame Trump. Massachusetts families pay for her résumé every winter. In November, remember who stopped the pipelines.

This is Ro Khanna’s house in Virginia…
The root of corruption is money in politics. Do you support @kenmartin73 grassroots initiative to ban Super PAC money, including AIPAC, in Democratic primaries? House Democrats support below, except we would not have kicked John Lewis out at 75.

Hey @FCC is this legal?
Electioneering is a violation of ABC's broadcast license. ABC News program The View tells viewers in FL-27 to "go vote" for Democrat Eliott Rodriguez over Republican Congresswoman Maria Elvira Salazar: "So, anybody who lives in Coral Gables, in Miami, in Key Biscayne, in downtown Miami, pay attention to that race and go vote because it's going matter. And we can actually knock this woman out. There's a great guy running, his name is Elliott Rodriguez. Give him a look.

I will lower your taxes by reducing waste in our $70B + budget. Maura Healey has spent over $3B on illegal immigrants and will spend $2B on a courthouse in Springfield. This election is about who can lower the cost of living and taxes while bringing back jobs. This is my skill set as a business leader.

What happened to this Maura Healey? In 2017, Healey said Massachusetts regularly cooperated with federal immigration officials and worked to hand over dangerous criminals. Today, this CNN clip is nearly impossible to find. The transcript still exists, but I had to dig through archived TV broadcasts all morning to recover the actual video. Watch for yourself.

It is so surprising to see the electorate allow candidates to tack back to the center and common sense after showing their true positions in the primaries. Is it naïveté or that no one paid attention to the primary?

The one good aspect of Socialist politicians like Bernie, AOC, Lizzie, and others getting wealthy in office is that the bar for their confiscatory taxes keeps going up. Remember when they would target “millionaires”? No longer!

Yes, when Governor Healey (D) was finally forced to answer questions after citizens demanded action when utility bills surged to $1,000–$2,000 PER MONTH following the implementation of her green policies. She pretended not to know why we lacked access to cheap natural gas, even though she was the one who prevented the construction of pipelines that would have brought cheap natural gas into Massachusetts despite bragging about it while campaigning for Governor..
Replying to @lamps_apple
Didn't she stop 2 pipeline while she was AG? How are your energy bills looking MA?

We must fight stupid and dangerous ideas. My high school son told me this morning that a fellow football player was trying to convince him and his teammates that communism and socialism are good and capitalism is bad. We used the moment to strengthen his clear, fact-based response to this absurd position. We discussed the tens of millions killed under communist regimes and how the United States fought throughout the Cold War to prevent communism’s spread. The historical record provides conclusive evidence that communism and socialism have failed to deliver what they promise. The Soviet Union collapsed. Maoist China produced famine and mass poverty until it adopted market reforms. Cuba remains poor and repressive. Venezuela turned one of the world’s wealthiest countries into an economic disaster. These systems do not create equality or shared prosperity. They concentrate power and wealth in the hands of a ruling class while leaving everyone else poorer and less free. Capitalism helped build the United States into the world’s greatest nation and only superpower. It rests on the principle that regardless of your background, hard work, initiative, and determination can produce prosperity and even wealth. @ConceptualJames Parenting requires more than asking whether your children completed their homework. You must educate them, guide them, and prepare them to challenge bad ideas. If you allow algorithms, social media, and foreign-influenced platforms to raise and educate your children, do not be surprised when they believe stupid things. Communism is a mortal threat to American liberty. @WhiteHouse
