To be clear: 48 senators are arguing that it would be a good thing to break the rules so a simple majority can trample on minority party rights while simultaneously arguing it would be a bad thing for a simple majority (+1) to preserve the rules & defend minority party rights. 🤔

He loves garbage trucks. How much? He greets the truck/crew every Weds morning promptly at 7:15am to say hi and supervise the pick-up … He’ll watch loops of garbage truck videos on YouTube for longer than I’m willing to admit … He has toy trash trucks. Today he met his hero.

Context:
Today's average price: $4.35 per gallon
Price when Biden took office: $2.38 per gallon
Imagine how much people would save if prices returned to where they were before this administration's assault on American energy.
For American families looking for a little more breathing room, these savings matter.

Democrats control the House. Democrats control the Senate. Democrats control the White House. Democrats just blocked a clean bill to keep the government open and funded beyond the Thursday deadline. This week's disarray is of the Democrats' own making.

Hardworking kid gets foot in door w/ job bussing tables ($1/hr). Works his way up to better-paying job flipping burgers. This is a story about working hard, not a "gotcha" moment. Forcing employers to increase their payroll risks those entry-level jobs that can lead to success.
Sen. John Thune, opposing $15 min wage, says he earned $6 as a kid—that's $24 with inflation

You know when people say, “I knew she was the one,” and you’re like, “nah, that’s not a real thing”? Let me tell you, it’s a real thing. She’s been the one long before I realized it, and once I did, there was no turning back. Happy first six years. We’re just getting started.

One of the kindest, most decent humans to have ever served in the Senate.
I’m sad to hear about the passing of my friend, Senator Johnny Isakson. Johnny always said there are two kinds of people in the world: friends and future friends. It says everything you need to know about him. Kimberley and I are keeping his family in our prayers.

Johnny already knows how awesome his mom is, but I can’t wait to tell him more about her. Most importantly, I want him to know that he hit the mom jackpot. I’m so proud of her, and I’m humbled by her selfless love more and more each day.
Happy first Mother’s Day,
