„Among the terms being discussed, which have not been previously reported,
@RonFilipkowski 2).
is an estimated $20-30 billion investment in a new Iranian non-enrichment nuclear program that would be used for civilian energy purposes, @realDonaldTrump administration officials and sources familiar with the proposal told CNN.
@RonFilipkowski @realDonaldTrump 3).
One official insisted that money would not come directly from the US, which prefers its Arab partners foot the bill. Investment in Iran’s nuclear energy facilities has been discussed in previous rounds of nuclear talks in recent months.”

„CBO Estimates $3 Trillion of Debt from House-Passed OBBBA
After accounting for interest costs on the new debt, we estimate that by Fiscal Year (FY) 2034 the bill would:
• Increase debt by nearly $3 trillion, or roughly $5 trillion if made permanent.
@RonFilipkowski 2).
• Increase the deficit to 7.0 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by 2026.
• Double interest costs between 2024 and 2034 to $1.8 trillion (4.2 percent of GDP).
@RonFilipkowski 3).
• Increase debt from 100 percent of GDP today to 124 percent of GDP by 2034, 129 percent of GDP if made permanent, and 133 percent if interest rates remain high.

„From the start of his second term, @POTUS @realDonaldTrump has bet that he can appeal to low-income voters while slashing safety net programs on which many of those voters depend [1].

„Republicans are facing a conundrum. They want to cut taxes with their »One Big Beautiful Bill«. But the tax cuts they want will explode the federal debt. So they've been looking for spending cuts.
@RonFilipkowski @POTUS @realDonaldTrump 3).
One big area where they want to slash: Medicaid, which provides over 75 million Americans – including low-income families, seniors and disabled people – with health insurance.

„The invocation [by @realDonaldTrump] spawned a flurry of articles on the history of the use of »enemy of the people [1] [2] [3]«, which may have been used against the Roman emperor Nero [4] to denounce his rule.
@DemocraticDaisy @RonFilipkowski @realDonaldTrump 2).
The phrase was adopted in Nazi Germany – »If someone wears the Jewish star, he is an enemy of the people«,
@DemocraticDaisy @RonFilipkowski @realDonaldTrump 3).
Hitler’s propaganda minister wrote – and, perhaps most famously, in the Soviet Union under Stalin, when being labeled an enemy of the people amounted to a death sentence [5].”

Asshole @realDonaldTrump vs. war hero John McCain (1936–2018) [1]
@JoJoFromJerz @RonFilipkowski @Acyn @realDonaldTrump 2).
– „»When I graduated from college, I had a net worth of perhaps $200,000« – [@realDonaldTrump] said in his 1987 autobiography »Trump: The Art of the Deal« written with Tony Schwartz (That’s about $1.4 million in 2015 dollars). – »I had my eye on Manhattan«.

More than 8,000 miles away, John McCain sat in a tiny, squalid North Vietnamese prison cell. The Navy pilot’s body was broken from a plane crash, starvation, botched operations and months of torture.

„The U.S. will halt its contributions to @gavi, the global alliance that works to expand access to vaccines for children in some of the world’s poorest countries, @SecKennedy said Wed., June 25, 2025 – a move that public health experts said would have deadly consequences [1]”

„ @SecKennedy's remarks were made at a @gavi pledging summit in Brussels [...], where countries and philanthropies promise to deliver funds.

A video of @RobertKennedyJr's remarks, first reported by Politico [2] [3] and later posted by The NYT [4] [5], shows him praising Gavi for its mission of making medicine affordable to everyone but then pivoting to criticisms.
