Here's one statistic for you: → Net jobs created under Clinton and Obama: 33.8 million. → Net jobs created under Bush, Bush, AND Trump: 1.9 million. That is not a typo.

Of Course Trump Will Tank the Economy. It’s What Republicans Do.
As the president’s “Liberation Day” nears, it’s time to liberate ourselves from the vicious cycle of Democrats having to clean up the GOP’s messes.

Elon Musk quietly deleted a post that said he would hand out two $1 million checks to people who had already voted in a Wisconsin Supreme Court race. Federal law prohibits payments to Americans in exchange for their registering to vote or casting ballots.
