Thanks to you, while Randy Bryce was attending the State of the Union last night, our #IronSOTU live tweet response to Donald Trump was seen and shared by hundreds of thousands of people.
With the help of an army of grassroots activists, we fact checked each and every one of Donald Trump's "alternative facts." Read below for updates, videos, and graphics that tell the real story of the State of Our Union.
4:01pm: As you're watching Donald Trump’s “alternative facts” at the #SOTU tonight, remember, @SpeakerRyan has “no disagreements” with @realDonaldTrump. #IronSOTU
5:03pm: Here’s the new ad we’re airing tonight during the #SOTU. Now chip in to help us keep the ad on the air for weeks here in Wisconsin—http://bit.ly/2GwBiSf
5:50pm: I’ve just arrived at the Capitol — work boots and all. I’m wearing black tonight because #TimesUp for the sexual predators who have hidden in Congress for too long and a President who has been accused of sexual assault by 19 different women.
8:10pm: .@SpeakerRyan wouldn’t applaud @BarackObama during his #SOTU addresses, but the first time @realDonaldTrump opened his mouth, Paul Ryan gave him a standing ovation. This is the definition of party over country. #IronSOTU
8:20pm: We need a Congressman who will hold accountable. Paul Ryan won’t do it, so chip in $3 or more to help us build the campaign that’s going to replace him.
8:26pm: .@SpeakerRyan got $500,000 from Charles Koch days after passing his #TaxScam. Donald Trump and the @GOP didn’t support a $1.5 trillion dollar giveaway to the rich to help working people, they did it to help their wealthy friends. #IronSOTU
8:32pm: .@realDonaldTrump likes to talk a lot about veterans, but I’ve yet to see him do something to actually help us. #IronSOTU
8:37pm: If @SpeakerRyan or @realDonaldTrump really cared about our healthcare, they’d support #MedicareForAll, which provides healthcare to every American while saving the United States $11 trillion over the next 10 years. #IronSOTU
8:38pm: A partial list of *job killing regulations* Donald Trump has eliminated. #IronSOTU
8:42pm: The solar industry employs twice as many people as the coal industry. @realDonaldTrump, you haven’t ended the war on American Energy, you’ve opened a whole new front. #IronSOTU
8:46pm: .@realDonaldTrump's “Infrastructure Plan” is the same type of crony capitalism he used to “rebuild” Puerto Rico. We need public investment, not sweetheart deals given to wealthy friends in exchange for broken promises. #IronSOTU
9:16pm: During his campaign, @realDonaldTrump promised he’d only hire “the best people.” One year later, 34% of his senior staff have left him, and this #SOTU is showing exactly why. #IronSOTU
8:45pm: The Republicans clapping for @realDonaldTrump now are the same ones who'd tell you—before the election—they knew he wasn’t fit for office. Republicans haven’t changed their minds, but now that he’s let them give their wealthy donors a tax cut, they’ve decided they don’t care.
9:32pm: .@SpeakerRyan's applause tonight proves he'll never stand up to @realDonaldTrump. Randy Bryce wants to fight. For all of us. Chip in now to help Randy fight to defeat Paul Ryan and make sure Democrats take back the House in 2018. #IronSOTU
11:42pm: No matter what terrible things @realDonaldTrump says or does, @SpeakerRyan has his back. #IronSOTU
We're working hard every day to make sure Randy Bryce defeats Paul Ryan and Democrats take back the House in 2018. If you can, chip in $3, or whatever you can afford, to help us fund the campaign that's going to beat the Speaker of the House.
