Chapter 2: Why are Republican leaders being booed in public events?
It cuts Medicare by over $50 billion, including over $30 billion. It doesn't touch Medicare.
then you might want to re-read the bill, sir. Sir, I've been involved in the process. I've been on the budget committee. It doesn't touch with Medicare.
Are you meaning Medicaid?
Chapter 3: What tactics are Republicans using to avoid public scrutiny?
I'm also meaning, well, it cuts Medicaid as well. It largely cuts Medicaid, including over $2 billion for the state of Oklahoma. You have put my hospital at risk, sir. I'm agreeing with you on that. I don't know how these things occurred on the job. I'm sure you do, too.
Chapter 4: How are constituents reacting to town hall meetings?
Why should, when we can read this and we can read the text of the bill on Congress, why should we believe what's in this? Because what you're saying is not true. You don't have any facts to back up what you just said. You don't have facts to back up what you just said, I'm sorry. You just don't.
This is a problem when people make statements and they don't have facts to back it up.
And Congress member Burkine held multiple town halls over the past 48 hours. Here was another one that he held in Pryor, Oklahoma. And here a constituent asks him, can you please explain to us, number one, what does Donald Trump mean when he says he's reducing health care costs by 1,400%? How is that possible? And also, prices are not going down.
Y'all promised you were going to bring prices down. Can you explain what's happening to which Congress member Burkine says, ma'am, ma'am, you don't know what you're talking about, ma'am. Federal government has nothing to do over. You best got to read your constitution and the enumerated powers, ma'am. You see, ma'am, this is a state's issue, not a federal issue. Dude, what are you talking about?
Have you ever heard of the Interstate Commerce Clause. Have you ever heard about the fact that Congress has the ability to, or is solely responsible for tariffs?

Chapter 5: What happened during Senator Susan Collins' public appearance?
Y'all are the reason screwing it up. Oh, but Congress, the president, nothing to do with it. It's the state's fault. That's why the prices are going up. And that's why Donald Trump's saying 1400%. How are these people talking about play this clip?
Well, no, I had a couple of related questions. One is I've heard President Trump say more than once that he has lowered drug prices by fifteen hundred percent. I'm not sure how that works. And the other is, can you tell me what specific bills we've passed or worked on that would lower grocery prices? Yeah. Well, ma'am, you're talking about things relative to state level.
And so you're mixing federal and state in terms of if you look at what the 18 enumerated powers say, the 18 enumerated powers that every member of Congress holds up their hand and swears an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution. And most people who run for Congress don't know those 18 enumerated powers.
And they don't know the 10th Amendment that says the power is not delegated to the United States by the Constitution nor prohibited by it to the states or reserved to the states or the people respectively. And so what I'm saying to you is Oklahoma, if you want to have that conversation about grocery taxes, they've been having that conversation.
Yeah, but what I'm saying is, but relative to constitutional authority and the way that I have my staff analyze things, what we're allowed to do, okay, what we're allowed to do is it has to be under the framework. We are given tax status, but tell me the federal tax right now on groceries.
So what I'm saying is state. You're talking about state. Who's next? And then Congress member Burkine just took a trip to Israel. AIPAC has paid this guy over $35,000. And he goes, look, I got to do it because of my biblical support of Israel, Genesis 12 and 17. That's why I do it. That's why I do it, everybody. Where does it mention in the Bible?
Where does the Bible mention Benjamin Netanyahu committing atrocities in Gaza? Where, where, where are we? Shh. That's in Genesis 12 and 17. Here, play this clip.
My name is Amanda. This is a little complicated subject. All right. So lobbying, you get paid by APAC $35,000. I did not get paid by APAC $35,000. That's what they have it on your Facebook. Can I explain to you? Okay, let me just, I'm going to finish. I'm going to finish and then you correct me. You made a statement. Let me correct it.
APAC is an organization that supports Israel. Before I ran for Congress because of my biblical beliefs. All right. I support Israel. I believe in Genesis 12 and Genesis 17.

Chapter 6: How did Congresswoman Ashley Hinson respond to public protests?
Okay, now, last month, before you even come into this meeting, you went to Israel. I did go to Israel. There is no other country allowed to take 40 member or 30 member of Congress, American Congress, to a different country. You didn't go to Britain. Did you go to Canada? These are our allies too.

My question is fiscal.

Congresswoman Hagman of Wyoming's town hall play this clip.
My question to you was how do you feel personally of stripping Americans of those foundational tools of mail-in ballots? What foundational tools? Mail-in ballots. Mail-in ballots are not foundational tools. We just said we have to protect it, but it's not foundational. We're fully capable of exercising your right to vote without a mail-in ballot.
You are absolutely fully capable of exercising your right to vote without a f***ing ballot.
