(2/8) In 2025 alone, Congress will send the Corporation for Public Broadcasting $535M.

He’s ignoring the will of voters and making it harder for Pres. Trump to revive our economy and defeat inflation.
(2/12) Since Day 1, the Biden White House has taken every opportunity it could to make producing fossil-fuels more expensive. He knows that high energy prices cause inflation and slow economic growth.
(3/12) Pres. Biden blocked the Keystone XL pipeline, killing thousands of American jobs on his first day in office.
