"Ronald Reagan Was No Protectionist," says someone (Senator Phil Gramm) who would actually know wsj.com/opinion/ronald…
This is a curious definition of "listening to its members" that apparently means "not endorsing the candidate that most members said they supported in two surveys."
Among major labor unions, the Teamsters were an outlier in the 2024 election when they chose to withhold their endorsement. But their decision is an important—and all-too-rare—example of a union listening to its members before taking political action. 🧵
The GOP has finally defunded two things they've talked about defunding for a long time: Planned Parenthood and public broadcasting. It won't balance the budget. But when the doomsday predictions don't come true, hopefully it will embolden leaders to cut more. Baby steps.
FL has done this without raising taxes, strengthening unions, imposing industrial policy, or expanding welfare. Just boring, free-market, limited-government stuff. FL's whole budget is smaller than CA's federal Medicaid matching funds, and it spends 1/2 as much per person as NY
Florida is #1 … again. For the third straight year CNBC has ranked Florida the #1 economy in the nation among all 50 states. Florida has: —lowest number of state workers per capita —lowest debt per capita —second-lowest spending per capita —no income tax —#1 public higher…
20 Ways and Means Rs lead by @RepSmucker and @MikeKellyPA sent a letter to the Trump IRS urging withdrawal of the Biden-era Revenue Ruling 2024-14. This rulemaking is part of Biden's weaponized IRS aimed to disrupt routine partnership transactions. It should be withdrawn.

The plan? We call the lawyer a Chief Economist and say the Teamsters are actually pro-Trump for not endorsing Trump.

The House passed H.R. 4 — cutting $9 BILLION in wasteful government spending. No more tax dollars for woke propaganda or foreign climate scams. Proud to lead this bill and deliver on President Trump’s promise to restore fiscal sanity in America.
X isn't real life. Post-Epstein saga, Trump's approval with the GOP (~90%) may actually be slightly up. He's at/or near his apex w/ the GOP. How? Just 1 respondent said Epstein was the top problem facing the U.S. Cong Dems, OTOH, are at their worst standing with Dems ever.
Reality check: Dems are way behind their 2006 & 2018 pace on the generic ballot at this point in the cycle. Ahead by only 2 pt vs. 7 pt in 2006/2018 cycles. Seat-by-seat analysis actually reveals more GOP pickup opportunities than Dems! Very much unlike 2006 & 2018 at this pt.
