Today I enthusiastically announce my campaign for the United States Senate in Virginia.

It's time to step up and make a difference. 1/

A new thread:

Imagine if your boss told you that you had to work for FREE from Jan. 1st until April 15.🤔

And when April came around, you learned you have to work for FREE another month.🤔

This, my friends, is federal income taxes & inflation in 2022. 1/20 Then you realize you're working for free the rest of May & June to cover Social Security & Medicare payroll taxes.

You decide to take a trip to the beach to relax after all this frustration and while gassing up, you realize there are gas taxes & tolls. 2/20

I'm going to use this as a thread on "fun" stuff within the Omnibus appropriations bill. Where to begin?

First, this bill is 4,155 pages long & was released after #Midnight. It's disgusting how Swamp legislators will not even attempt to read the bill's details. 1/ Nancy Pelosi said it best: We have to pass the bill to find out what's in it.

But before the bill passes, I'm going to highlight some things I think are of note or that I think are interesting.

The bill taxes, spends, & regulates America...1/ ...into a deeper Biden recession, higher Bidenflation, & less economic freedom.

Schumer/Manchin spends $369 billion on green/radical environmental climate policies...effectively subsidizing the CCP. 2/
