PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN

x Millions of young people are facing mental health challenges as they navigate the digital world and face bullying, violence, and trauma.



That’s why we’re working to get them the care they need and deserve – right at school. pic.twitter.com/cdGGMr8mk4 — President Biden (@POTUS) May 10, 2023

x You might be hearing folks in D.C. talking about a default.



Here's the bottom line if House Republicans refuse to pay our bills:



Higher interest rates

Risk of halted Social Security payments

And the 12.7 million jobs we've added on my watch?



Over half that many could be gone. — President Biden (@POTUS) May 10, 2023

x America is a not a deadbeat nation.



We make investments, and then we pay our bills.



Republicans in Congress used to understand this. In fact, under my predecessor, they voted to avoid default three times.



But these aren't your father’s Congressional Republicans. — President Biden (@POTUS) May 10, 2023

x Take it from our teachers, MAGA House Republicans’ education cuts would be catastrophic. https://t.co/p4yp0aAs1A — President Biden (@POTUS) May 10, 2023

x With over 12 million new jobs, 50-year-low unemployment, and a manufacturing boom, my invest in America agenda is working.



House Republicans are threatening that progress by risking economic chaos unless we gut education, health care, and border funding to cut taxes on the rich. — President Biden (@POTUS) May 10, 2023

x If we defaulted on our debt, the middle class would hurt.



8 million jobs lost.

Social Security and Medicare payments could be halted or delayed.

Retirement accounts would be hit.

Costs would go up.



It's time to end the gamesmanship and get to work. America pays its bills. — President Biden (@POTUS) May 10, 2023

x Tune in as I discuss why Congress must avoid default immediately and without conditions. https://t.co/X6XCzaDR78 — President Biden (@POTUS) May 10, 2023

FDA

ABORTION

x WaPo-ABC News poll:



66% of Americans who say the abortion medication mifepristone should stay on the market. Just 24% say it should be taken off the market. — Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1) May 10, 2023

GEORGE SANTOS

x Third, the indictment says George Santos misled the House about his finances. In 2020, he's accused of overstating one source of income while failing to disclose investment firm salary. In 2022, Santos is accused of including several falsehoods in his financial disclosure form. — Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1) May 10, 2023

x I can't make this up.



Rep. George Santos R-NY is charged with unemployment benefits fraud.



The House is slated to vote this week on a bill to help states recover fraudulent COVID unemployment payments.

x Seems like @CNN made a deal with the devil to host the @realDonaldTrump town hall. They forgot that everything Trump touches dies. The venue, stocked with Trump acolytes, will provide a platform for lies. In the end CNN will irreparably damage its brand. — Alexander S. Vindman ❎ (@AVindman) May 10, 2023

x ♥️🇨🇦 Today @RonFilipkowski posted a video of Trump on Truth Social. He was boasting that only he can save “fake news” CNN and that they crawled to him with an offer he could not refuse. And then warned that they better treat him well.

No matter how many blatant lies Trump tells at tonight’s CNN town hall, Americans know that his presidency was an abject failure. He can’t spin his way out of how disastrous his MAGA agenda is for this country, including:

The worst jobs record since the Great Depression

Tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy and biggest corporations

Added trillions to the deficit

Endorsed a national abortion ban

Appointed the three extreme-right Supreme Court justices who overturned Roe

Proposed cuts to Medicare and Social Security every single year he was in office

Tried to cut funding for law enforcement every single year he was in office

Constantly praised Putin at the expense of our allies

Incited a violent, insurrectionist mob to attack the Capitol

Continues to lie about the 2020 election, and lionizes rioters who were charged with attacking police officers
