Trump Treasury Secretary doesn't think $1 billion a day spent on the war in Iran matters.
“It's not something that we have to worry about over the horizon.”
Just like his defense of price-hiking tariffs, multimillionaire Buddy Carter defends Georgians paying higher gas prices from the Iran war as “just part of it” and “absolutely necessary.” #GASen #GAPol
“Consumers are really strapped. They're seeing prices rise for utilities, they're seeing prices rise for gasoline, they're seeing prices rise for food, and premiums for healthcare going up by hundreds of dollars a month in many cases.”
This is Trump's economy. And it is only getting worse.
"I would leave all options open."
John McGuire is all for going to war with Iran if that's what Trump wants. #VA05
“Moving into a period where, this, you know, chaos in the Middle East. [...] We could really start to see inflation tick up.”
Job losses and high prices. This is what Trump’s economy looks like for working families.
GET THE OPPO: #AZGov candidate Andy Biggs' record is so toxic, we're shocked he only has half a Trump endorsement:
❌Backed Trump's disastrous tariffs
❌Sided with corporations over worker safety
❌Co-sponsored a bill to ban IVF
The receipts are public on #ResearchBooks.
"So the, you know, the situation now with the oil, I think is limited. I think we'll be back to our normal oil prices very soon."
Don't hold your breath, David Flippo. #NV02
#WIGov candidate Tom Tiffany backed a national abortion ban.
Now he’s endorsing Maria Lazar — who praised the overturning of Roe v Wade and said she’s open to a six-week ban.
The perfect duo for taking away women’s healthcare freedom. #WIPolitics
REMINDER: This is the "Donald Trump economy."
Jon Husted refuses to answer if he approves of spending billions of dollars for war with Iran — he must not be "experienced at navigating the real world." #OHSen
Revised data cut Trump’s economic growth in HALF at the end of last year, and data shows prices kept rising to start 2026.
And that was before he chose to wage a costly war in Iran, which is driving up prices even more. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/13/b...
Jon Husted refuses to answer for the discrepancies in his testimony as he is at the center of Ohio’s largest corruption scandal. #OHSen
“President Trump's thinking long-term. He's not thinking about next month.”
Families are worried about paying their bills next month, but Trump doesn’t care. He’s waging a war that is helping drive up prices and making it even harder for people to get by.
Remember when Republicans were fearmongering about how Kamala Harris would send your sons to war?
We do. Now they're supporting it.
THIS is who Donald Trump thinks is serious enough to keep our country safe and run the Department of Homeland Security?!?
Trump Energy Secretary Chris Wright freezes when confronted about the likelihood that the war with Iran will cause oil to be $200 a barrel causing gas prices to continue to hike.
“We're going through short-term energy disruption for just huge long-term gain.”
It’s hard to be more out of touch than Jon Husted who claimed that struggling Ohioans can’t navigate the real world. #OHsen
Jeff Van Drew is paying a consultant tied to the infamous Bridgegate scandal.
That doesn't seem wise... #NJ02 americanjournalnews.com/jeff-van-dre...
LISTEN: Perry Johnson again celebrates that hundreds of thousands of federal workers lost their jobs, including those in Michigan. #MIGov
WATCH: Tom Tiffany takes being a rubber stamp for Trump's waste, fraud, and abuse to a new level.
After being asked why Pete Hegseth spent $93 BILLION on lobster and other luxuries, Tiffany refuses to answer and instead desperately looks for a way to explain it away. #WIGov
“If you're aligned to a party, you have an agenda.”
Words of wisdom from Maria Lazar after being endorsed by GOP Rep. Tom Tiffany and five other Republican members of Congress. #WISC #Wispolitics
Trump’s replacement choice to lead DHS hired a felon, helped him acquire guns, and denied knowing about it.
Mullin will bring the same carelessness and dishonesty to the agency as Noem. Americans will be less safe with someone this reckless in charge of homeland security.
"Now they're going up, because of the spike here, because of the war."
Jim Desmond admits that Trump's pointless war in Iran is making life more expensive for Californians. #CA48
Michael Whatley SERIOUSLY needs to read the room and stop gaslighting North Carolina families.
Jobs are down, prices are up, and wages are stagnant in Trump's economy. #NCSen
It’s getting messy in Arizona.🍿
David Schweikert just accused Andy Biggs of flirting with white supremacists and trafficking in antisemitism.
Biggs’ response? He called it a “desperate tactic” — but didn’t deny it. #AZGov
Trump told a reckless lie to cover a massive military blunder in a war that no one asked for and that he was unprepared to launch.
"I don't give shit if you vote for me or not."
That's what #WI03 Rep. Derrick Van Orden has to say to his constituents who are concerned about entering into another pointless war.
