THREAD: There are members of the GOP claiming Democrats got nothing from the “deal.” Oh really? 1) An uncapped debt ceiling with an expiration date - worth approximately $4 trillion…? 2) basically no cuts - a freeze at bloated 2023 spending level? #DebtCeiling (1/3)
…3) ZERO claw back of the $1.2 Trillion “inflation reduction act” crony giveaways to elite leftists for grid-destroying unreliable energy…? 4) 98% of the IRS expansion left fully in place…? 5) no work requirements for Medicaid? - & only age adjustments for TANF/SNAP…? (2/3)
…6) no REINS act statutory requirement for congress to approve huge regulations - just an “administrative” paygo that the administration will get to enforce? 7) No border security!! - & a deal allowing them to avoid policy riders in the fall… 8) more… (3/3) /end

THREAD: Turns out this chart is basically accurate. Will fill it in tomorrow more fully… but to best of our current understanding with NO text… 1) Debt ceiling set til 1/1/2025 - which means unknown debt increase - but $4 Trillion is a good estimate... (1/10)
…2) Debt Ceiling “Deal” totally scraps the $131BB in cuts to return bureaucracy to pre-COVID levels in favor of what appears to be effectively flat spending (down or up a little) - at the bloated 2023 Omnibus spending level, jammed through in a rush in December… (2/10)
3) Debt Ceiling “Deal” abandons work requirements for Medicaid (3/10)

THREAD on #DebtCeiling. The @HouseGOP passed #HR2811 - the Limit, Save, Grow Act - that raises the debt ceiling $1.5 Trillion or until 3/31/24, for sensible, purposeful non-political reforms. Those reforms should NOT be abandoned - because they matter… (1/10)
…Purposeful reform #1: Cut the federal bureaucracy to pre-COVID levels by limiting total discretionary 2024 spending to 2022 levels ($1.471 TR) -which constrains woke bureaucrats to help spur growth & freedom, & re-sets spending to save $131BB now, & 3.5TR over 10 years… (2/10)
…Purposeful reform #2: Cut the so-called “inflation reduction act” tax credit give-aways to rich, white, elites (90%+ corp subsidies go to $1BB+ corps, 80% of EV go to $100K+ people) to save $1.2 TR, keep reliable power, & end increases to the cost of gas/electricity… (3/10)

THREAD: Things @JoeBiden wants to hide by fear-mongering that the @HouseGOP debt-ceiling plan to #LimitSaveGrow will “cut” veteran benefits & meals on wheels… A) the only ones talking about cutting veterans are Joe Biden & Democrats - we simple set a total spending cap… (1/9)
…and B) we capped it at $1.471 trillion, the TOTAL spending number we were using literally less than 5 months ago, which allows Congress to choose how to spend it! e.g. if we keep defense at current level, we can fund the the remaining bureaucracy at pre-COVID levels… (2/9)
… and/or allows C) the same amount as that MAGA extremist Barack Obama’s last budget level for this year! Moreover, D) @joebien doesn’t want you to focus on all the ridiculous waste and woke / weaponized spending we could cut… (3/9)

The @HouseGOP is working to save America from the double-barreled disaster of stagflation while Dems fiddle. We offer to do what we said - spending reforms, not a blind increase of Govt borrowing. What’s possible? THREAD: (1/7) #ShrinkDCGrowAmerica
wsj.com/articles/kevin…
1st, we return discretionary spending to 2022 levels (i.e. what we were spending 4 mos ago) to fund defense at 2023 levels (beat China) & simply cut weaponized bureaucracy to pre-COVID 2019 levels, which is exactly 2024 levels in Obama’s last budget! (2/7) #ShrinkDCGrowAmerica
2nd, we save around $500BB in CURRENT $ by reclaiming COVID emergency spending - some $70+ billion of unobligated COVID money & the $400+ Billion in the unfair transfer of bloated student loan payments to the working class… #ShrinkDCGrowAmerica (3/7)

Ron DeSantis for President of the United States #NeverBackDown #DeSantis2024
The next President of the United States must be a vibrant and energetic leader with the faith, vision, and courage to chart a new course.   America needs a leader who will truly defend her and empower the people against the destructive force of unrestrained government and..
corporate excess, profligate spending, and woke cultural indoctrination.

That leader is Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.

BORDER THREAD: A) Title 42 is NOT border policy & should not be treated as such. Too many GOP use it as cover for weak border efforts when we should not perpetuate the myth of on-going pandemic (see, e.g., student loans); B) We can & should fix the border w/ #HR7772… (1/6)
… the principles laid out in the #TxBorderPlan & we must do these things precisely b/c Title 42 is not an actual fix but a bandaid; C) Now, of course Title 42 can be aggressively used for duration of ANY concurrent federal “pandemic” mandates being used against citizens… (2/6)
…& federal policy makers can debate that, & we should; D) But, ACLU leftists went to District Court to compel the feds to end Title 42 & the court agreed, E) states said - hold up, we get a say if the district court is going to make policy… (3/6)
