Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target U.S. forces. Not surprising. What IS surprising? Our response: easing oil sanctions on Russia.

Full breakdown on this and more from my Weekend Update on my Substack page: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/weekend-vi...

Condoms, gift cards and wedding gifts: Arizona parents allegedly misspent $10 million in ESA funds The Arizona Department of Education records obtained by 12News show misspending could be 20% of all purchases in the $1 billion voucher program.

While some school districts don’t have enough money to support kids, money that should be going to support public education is being misused because the voucher system is broken. Arizona kids deserve better.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

Michael Baumgartner has asked the federal government to investigate fraud in Washington State when there have been no allegations of fraud. What he is doing is attempting to bring the madness of what is happening in places like Minnesota to Washington state. Is this what YOU elected him to do?

Here is the Washington State GOP chair trying to spread dissent about β€œfraud” the same way they are doing in Minnesota. And GOP representative Michael Baumgartner to review federal funds to his OWN STATE so the Feds can pull all funding the same way they did in Minnesota.

Here you have another propagandist and elite pedophile supporter parroting the same β€œfraud” narrative that Washington State rep Michael Baumgartner is using to β€œrequest” the feds β€œinvestigate” and stop sending any funds to Washington state.

Rep Michael Baumgartner, WA is saying the investigation was politically motivated. Once again based on when Smith wanted to have the trial. He was upset Smith was choosing NY over FL. He’s a talker this one but a lot of BS.

Michael Baumgartner (R-WA) faced controversy during a town hall meeting where he was confronted by an angry crowd regarding his voting record and actions during Donald Trump's presidency.

Michael Baumgartner, WA rep from Spokane who just admitted he didn’t even know who Jack Smith was and then said the dumbest shit ever to attempt to rewrite history on behalf of Felon Shitler- is a FUCKING moron. Fuck him and his stupidity in behalf of the Evergreen State.

Michael Baumgartner (R-WA), says he didn't know who Jack Smith was because he doesn't have cable tv and spends his time with his wife taking care of his kids, then either reading or watching Netflix. Yet he knew all about #J6, and the J6 committee investigations.

I just saw WA Rep. Michael Baumgartner say he hadn’t know who Jack Smith was. If he thinks he insulted Smith, he’s mistaken. He did, however, show how unqualified he is to represent his constituents. No politician could be this clueless. I looked him up, and he also claims to be a Catholic. 1/2

Have you all seen that the propagandist are also trying to spread this fake daycare fraud narrative in Washington State? That eastern WA rep Michael Baumgartner and the head of the state GOP: Jim Walsh, a constitutional sheriff in Pierce Co and multiple β€œinfluencers” are fomenting this lie?

For all of my Wa State compatriots: Michael Baumgartner is up for re-election this year. He has SUDDENLY become sympathetic to his constituents. He will be attempting to make everyone forget that he lives in pedo trumps butt. Never forget that he voted against the ACA subsidies.
VOTE HIM OUT!!

screenshot from the union bulletin newspaper of walla walla. Header image shows a photo of Michael Baumgartner, the US Representative for the WA-05 congressional district. The headline reads β€œWalla Walla town hall with US Representative. Michael Baumgartner canceled because of security concerns.” Within the story, it states that expected protestors were the source of security concerns.

Can we ALSO yell at some GOP reps too? In addition to the 7 Dems? Can we yell at Michael Baumgartner, WA 05 rep and his disgusting victim blaming? Has any GOP house rep had any pressure on them from Bluesky at all?

We can do both. Yell at Suozzi and the 213 other GOP fucks.

Karl Rove is worried. Also, Michael Baumgartner (R) Eastern Washington is sending surveys to his constituents about their opinions on ICE. Why? He’s worried about his ability to be reelected. That is a pressure point. Use it. youtu.be/haoF5MzzSPE?...

Live in Eastern Washington? I’m sure you have noticed that our current regime is even more war happy than usual. What do all wars need? Your children to die to make rich people even more rich. Michael Baumgartner doesn’t like that some schools are getting in the way of your kid being indoctrinated.

These assault claims were deemed credible enough for the FBI and DOJ to use the woman as a witness in the prosecution of Maxwell.
So where is the subpoena by Congress? .
It’s time for the GOP to hold all perpetrators accountable like other countries.
