Trump, once again, shows himself to be the fraud that he's always been.

The Hill:

#Tillis told #Trump to 'start thinking about my replacement' before primary threat

Republican Sen. Thom Tillis is bowing out after clashing with Trump over the tax megabill. Just hours after he voted “no” on advancing the plan, Tillis announced he won’t seek re-election, citing frustration with partisan bickering and wanting more time with family. Trump immediately vowed to find a primary challenger to replace him, and Democrats see a shot to flip this key North Carolina seat. Want all the details and fallout? Click the link.

Letter to a #Senator / 22 June :: Mr #Tillis_ Last night, #America launched strikes on sites in #Iran. As you know, only# Congress holds the #constitutional authority to declare war. Yet once again, the #Executive has acted #unilaterally. 1/5

Letter to a #Senator / 22 June: Mr. #Tillis, I oppose the provision in the #OBBBA that permits the sale of #federallands to offset the #taxbreaks included in the bill. Relying on the sale of assets to cover ongoing expenses is demonstrably poor fiscal policy. It’s not #sustainable. 1/5

Letter to a #Senator / 8 June :: Mr. #Tillis, Have you read #DavidBier’s white paper published on the #CatoInstitute’s website? In it, he argues that the immigration enforcement provisions in #HB1 (#OBBBA) alone would add $1 trillion to the #federaldeficit. 1/7

Letter to a #Senator // 4 June:: Mr. #Tillis, Thank you for your letter in response to my inquiry about the #BudgetBill, submitted through your portal. Unfortunately, your reply remains ambiguous regarding whether you intend to vote in favor of the bill. 1/15

Letter to a #Senator / 29 May :: Mr. #Tillis_ I was pleased by the #USCourt of #InternationalTrade’s unanimous 3-judge #ruling that #Trump’s tariffs were #unconstitutional. 1/8

Letter to a #Senator / 19 May:: Mr. #Tillis_ My second letter today is to register my displeasure and opposition to the #BigBeautifulBill making its way --with friction-- through the committee. 1/7

Letter to a #Senator / 19 May:: Mr. #Tillis_ My first letter today is to register my opposition to the #parade being billed as for the #Army, but what we all recognize as in alignment with the #POTUSINO’s #birthday. Where has fiscal conservatism gone with the #GOP? 1/3

Just called my #Congressmen #Knott, #Tillis and #Budd. Only Knott had someone I could talk to. Left #VMs for other two. Asked for statement on US Rep quoting Joseph Goebbels, ethics for a #President accepting gifts from #foreign #gov, about ethics of a #potus using crypto, #defunding #school #lunches but funding #military #parade. Person was nice and said "Well I haven't discussed those topics with the #Congressman, but I'll pass it along." Really? No one is talking about this shit?!?

Letter to a #Senator / 05 May:: Mr. #Tillis_ Thank you for your response to my letter regarding the funding of #PublicBroadcasting. I steadfastly disagree with your belief that eliminating federal support of these networks is a meaningful contribution to addressing the country’s #deficit. 1/5

Letter to a #Senator / 04 May:: Mr. #Tillis_ News has broken about the naming of 9 counties in #NorthCarolina as uncooperative ( #sanctuaryjurisdictions ) with #ImmigrationandCustomsEnforcement. (As you may know) I am a resident of one of those counties. 1/5

Letter to a #Senator / 03 May:: Mr #Tillis_ On April 13th the #NewYorkTimes published an article summarizing #DOGE’s statements about anticipated savings achievements. 1/7
