Two things that I think we should have binding National Referendums on - frankly, because Congress can't be trusted to do the right thing: 1. Term Limits on the House and Senate. 2. A requirement to Balance The Budget.

For Congress, 5 years is the minimum to vest in a lifetime pension. 5 years, isn't that nice? For them.

We need to have an honest conversation about and consensus on what Social Security is. It is billed as a retirement savings type plan, which is a lie, and believing the lie impedes a real solution.
Question; should a boomer who’s worth 100 million dollars really be collecting social security? Answer; that’s none of my damn business. I don’t get to decide what people do with their hard earned money.

When Senators and Congressional Reps "serve" in Congress for 30 - 40 yrs, they lose all perspective of what life is like for normal people. Their friendships and personal circles shift away from their districts - to their new Rich "friends" (donors and lobbyists) in DC who always have lots of money to spend on them. REALLY REALLY Need TERM LIMITS!!

The Islamic takeover of France you’re seeing unfold today as Muslims burn France to the ground is what you will see happen here in the US if the Democrats win the midterms. People better wake up.

Thune doubts the SAVE Act can pass. 🙄 Then what exactly are we paying you for, Senator? Proof of citizenship to vote shouldn't be controversial. Do your job or step aside. 🇺🇸

If we hold the Senate majority in November and don’t fire @LeaderJohnThune, nothing changes. He will continue to block Trump’s and the American people’s agenda. Fire John Thune and start winning, or keep him and lose.

Warren Buffett said he could “end the deficit in five minutes” by making members of Congress ineligible for reelection if the deficit exceeded 3% of GDP.

Sec Burgum, the B.L.M. tells the public that slaughter is off the table, but they're doing it in plain sight using third parties. There are simple steps the bureau could take to end this, but they are turning a blind eye and wild horses & burros suffer.

Fire Thune for failing the American People! Make him the example so nobody forgets what failure costs.

Are we getting the money back?
I am proud to announce alongside many of our task force members that we are going to suspend 870,000 people who defrauded the government from ever being able to apply for these loans again. It’s simple, if you screwed the American taxpayer, the federal government is going to cut you off from applying for benefits and if you try — you will be DENIED!

Freedom should never be taken for granted. 🐴 This Labor Day, we honor those who speak up and fight for a better future. For wild horses & burros, that fight continues. Their freedom, families & place on public lands are worth protecting. Repost from Instagram @ blakemalibu

September roundup season is here. BLM lacks transparency around roundup plans and schedules. We’re watching key operations across the West and sharing verified updates. Stay informed. Be ready to act. 🤎

KEEP THE PROTECTIONS. CLOSE THE SLAUGHTER PIPELINE. AWHC is leading 37 organizations urging Congress to retain the bipartisan Van Drew–Titus protections in the final BUILD America 250 Act. Protect America’s horses, burros, donkeys, and mules from the slaughter pipeline. 🐴🤎

A petition is urging Congress to preserve federal protections for wild horses and donkeys under the Bureau of Land Management’s care. A proposed federal budget would reduce funding for the Wild Horse and Burro Program by about $37 million and omit longstanding restrictions on killing healthy animals or selling them for slaughter. Supporters warn the changes could put tens of thousands of animals at risk. They are calling on Congress to preserve the restrictions and fund nonlethal methods, including fertility control.

Slaughtering wild horses is illegal, but the bureau’s actions create a loophole that enables people to get mustangs on the cheap and then quickly resell them to be exported alive, processed into cuts of meat and sold abroad. Livestock inspection records show mustangs sold by the government soon ended up on trucks bound for slaughter plants in Canada." nytimes.com/2026/08/20/us/tr…

In other words “Why can’t a 24 yr old solve all the government’s spending problems?” You people in DC are a large part of the problem. All you do is complain and whine on 𝕏 while your job is to actually work for us. I’ve exposed and saved America billions. What have you done?
Hard to take @nickshirleyy seriously until he starts calling out Johnson, Thune, and Trump for funding the daycare fraud in every Omnibus and CR bill with no guardrails.
