I took a call from a family-owned lumber company in Western Illinois who said their next shipment of 2x4’s from Canada is labeled “Cost TBD.” “We have been in business since 1984 and if lumber prices go up, we will go out of business.”
Trump: "We don't need Canada's lumber. So what I'm doing is I'll be signing an executive order freeing up our forests so that we're allowed to take down trees and make a lot of money and then re-harvest trees ... we don't need anything from Canada."
I can’t speak for others, but I am a Democrat who does not believe this is business as usual. We are working letters and legislation, working with business leaders and nonprofit leaders, and amplifying voices of veterans. Coalition building before the fight is the most important work right now.
While the President is focused on punishing Canada for some reason, he’s ignoring the real Americans who have grocery and gas prices going up, medicine prices going up, insurance prices going up, everything going up including unemployed workers. An incredible cost we pay with no reward in the end.
#SOTU GUEST: A veteran and former IRS Officer, James Diaz was laid off in his words due to DOGE and the Trump administration “taking a chainsaw” to job cuts without “doing some critical thinking,” I am honored to have James as my guest for the State of the Union. youtu.be/JyGqbJ20jKE
Yesterday’s stupid bullying did one thing: the rest of the world now knows America’s commitment is worth the same as a three dollar bill with Trump’s portrait on it. It puts our country in a dangerous situation if we lose our friends and need to fend for ourselves alone. 🧵4/4
…causing The Hague to issue an arrest warrant for Putin in 2023 for the unlawful forced movement of children across borders. Putin has left much of Ukraine in ruins and Trump insists that Zelenskyy play nice? 🧵3/4
Ukraine has lost hundreds of thousands of its people since Russia invaded. (And our President doesn’t even accept that fact.) Russia has stolen nearly a million children from their families in Ukraine… 🧵2/4
In 2023, I was able to welcome Ukrainian President Zelenskyy to the U.S. Capitol and say “America stands strong with you and your people.” I meant it then and I mean it now. What happened at the White House yesterday was an absolute embarrassment. 🧵1/4
