Bob Dole personified patriotism: a decorated veteran, a dedicated public servant, and a true statesman. My deepest condolences are with the entire Dole family and all who knew and loved him. — PolitiTweet.org

Pres. Biden's nominee for top banking regulator—Saule Omarova—has extremely radical socialist ideas.   There will be tremendous push back if the administration attempts to nominate an individual with similarly radical views as Vice Chair for Supervision at the @federalreserve. https://t.co/mPesITzo1Z — PolitiTweet.org

The Iranian regime's attempt to kidnap @AlinejadMasih — a U.S. citizen — on U.S. soil is a brazen escalation, and it requires a proportional response. That's why @SenatorCardin and I are introducing new sanctions legislation to hold Iran accountable and deter future attacks. https://t.co/RMjyhKTTP1 — PolitiTweet.org

An overdraft fee covers the cost of extending a loan to a consumer who lacks sufficient funds. Ban these fees then services like free checking and no-minimum balance accounts will disappear. — PolitiTweet.org

.@CFPB is distorting the facts in an attempt to make it look like big bank profits rely on overdraft fees. But the data shows this is simply not true. With very few exceptions—which are in fact small banks—overdraft fees make up a very small fraction of most banks' revenue. https://t.co/f0bcKcsp0H — PolitiTweet.org

It's not a good look when a regulator’s first reaction to bank profits is to assume a crime. Based on his comments, I'm not sure @chopracfpb even understands what competition is. — PolitiTweet.org

As top banking regulator, Prof. Omarova would wield enormous powers. She could: ❌ Decide who gets a bank charter ❌ Ban new financial products ❌ Steer credit to politically-favored businesses A person with such radical socialist ideas should not be confirmed. https://t.co/DKDljVupjm — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats can raise the debt limit all by themselves anytime they want. The only reason they refuse to use the tools at their disposal is because they’d have to specify the actual dollar amount of debt they want to accumulate and be held accountable for their reckless spending. https://t.co/LI8tsnpOQl — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s be honest: Prof. Omarova's policy positions are socialist. She's advocated: ✅ Nationalizing banking (including consumer) ✅ Setting price controls ✅ Having the government allocate credit Her radical ideas make her unfit to serve as America's top banking regulator. https://t.co/xuJVDOmnR3 — PolitiTweet.org

My amendment would require any country identified as a major producer of fentanyl to prosecute drug traffickers and schedule fentanyl as a class. And, if they do not, then they aren't doing all they could and should be doing to keep fentanyl off our streets. — PolitiTweet.org

Prof. Omarova has proposed "end[ing] banking as we know it," "bankrupting" energy companies, and having the Fed set prices for gas, food, rent, and more.   She will appear before @BankingGOP tomorrow at 9:30 AM.   Watch live here: https://t.co/M059rgzo9M — PolitiTweet.org

That is why I introduced legislation with @SenatorHassan that would require countries of origin help in counternarcotic efforts, schedule fentanyl—like we do—& work to prosecute producers & traffickers. Failure to do so would put countries at risk of losing certain foreign aid. — PolitiTweet.org

Countries like China are the predominant sources of this deadly synthetic opioid. Yet, our government does NOT require these countries of origin to assist in efforts to prevent the flow of fentanyl to our borders, like it does with cocaine & heroin. — PolitiTweet.org

This corporate minimum tax would require business income to be calculated under a different set of rules, which wouldn't allow for full expensing. Normally, Congress sets the rules for how a company calculates taxable income, but here, an unelected body would. — PolitiTweet.org
