“While the national debt poses a significant economic risk, it also imposes significant security risks.” That’s right. A Republican flip flop from Senator Cornyn who said this in 2023. Now he’s gonna vote to add $37 trillion to the debt. Womp womp.

And the rich get richer.

A post from Donald Trump reads: TO THE MANY INVESTORS COMING INTO THE UNITED STATES AND INVESTING MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF MONEY, MY POLICIES WILL NEVER CHANGE. THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO GET RICH, RICHER THAN EVER BEFORE!!!

Democrats will expose Republicans’ attacks on American families.

Chuck Schumer@schumer.senate.govApr 4(source)

This is the Republican agenda, plain and simple: Billionaires win American families lose

Chuck Schumer@schumer.senate.govApr 4(source)

Senate Republicans have begun the process to pass their legislation that eviscerates Medicaid, all to pay for tax cuts for the ultra rich. Billionaires win, American families lose. We are going to expose this awful bill.

“The transcendent issue of our era, which is deficit and debt, until we fix that problem, we can’t fix America.” —Senator McConnell in 2013 But now? He’s about to vote to add $37 trillion to the debt Republicans gonna flip flop

Another Republican. Another Flip Flop. “I’m actually not comfortable with increasing the debt.” —Senator Lankford (R-OK), November 5, 2017 Except Senator Lankford did vote to add trillions to the debt then. And he’s about to add $37 trillion to the debt now.

Look at that, “Republicans Gonna Flip Flop” “Do you think you can still pay for extending your tax cuts without cutting both Medicaid and Medicare?” “Yeah. Absolutely.” —Donald Trump, February 19, 2025 False.

Oh another, “Republicans Gonna Flip Flop” “Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, we’re not talking about in any way reducing benefits.” —Speaker Johnson, March 11, 2025 Ain’t true.

Republicans Gonna Flip Flop! “If I thought for a second that this bill is going to add to the deficit, I wouldn’t vote for it.” —Senator Kennedy (R-LA), November 28, 2017 But he did vote to add trillions to the debt then. And he’s about to add $37 trillion to the debt now.

Hey it’s a new series called “Republicans Gonna Flip Flop” “Republicans are not going to cut Medicaid benefits at all” —Sen. Moreno “I’m not worried about people losing their healthcare” —Sen. Kennedy “I’m not going to vote for Medicaid cuts” —Sen. Hawley None of it was true

Chuck Schumer@schumer.senate.govApr 3(source)

Senate Republicans don’t want to admit that their plan to make tax cuts permanent will add $37 trillion to the debt.

Chuck Schumer@schumer.senate.govApr 3(source)

The budget Republicans put forth could kick 80 million Americans off their health coverage. Rural hospitals, community health centers, and nursing homes at risk of closure. All because they are hell-bent on cutting taxes for billionaires.

The Apprentice President Donald “You’re Fired” Trump is refusing to hold his senior leaders accountable. Maybe the Pentagon Inspector General will have to step in to show him what that looks like. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Donald Trump's tariffs are the largest tax hike on families since World War II. And of course markets are plunging. Donald Trump is singlehandedly tanking the markets.

Chuck Schumer@schumer.senate.govApr 3(source)

Trump is using tariffs in the dumbest way imaginable. That's what happens when you have no clue what you’re doing. You fire air traffic controllers, dismantle disease outbreak monitoring, sabotage Social Security and the VA, defund public schools, & declare trade wars on penguins.

Chuck Schumer@schumer.senate.govApr 3(source)

Donald Trump slapped tariffs on penguins and not on Putin.

Chuck Schumer@schumer.senate.govApr 3(source)

Trump's tariffs are one of the dumbest decisions he has ever made as president—and that’s saying something.
