June 6, 1944.
The Allied landings in Normandy. Operation Overlord. A day that changed the course of history — at a cost we must never forget.

Thousands of Allied soldiers, sailors, and airmen crossed into occupied Europe, knowing full well the danger ahead. Many never came home. Those who did carried with them the weight of what they had seen and the brothers they had lost.

The liberation of France, the freedom of Western Europe, the victory on the Western Front — none of it was inevitable. It was made possible by their courage and sacrifice.

We owe it to them to remember. Not as a formality. Not as an annual ritual. But as an act of responsibility.

In an age where such stories risk fading into the background, we must choose — again and again — to carry them forward. To teach them. To honor them.

Today, we remember every life given, every sacrifice made, on the beaches of Normandy — and the duty they passed down to us.

While the headlines chase drama, we’re focused on results.

✅ The largest tax cut in American history — putting $5,000 back in your pocket
✅ No tax on tips or overtime — because hard work should never be penalized
✅ Border security that actually secures — more agents, more enforcement, and the wall finished
✅ $1.6 trillion in deficit reduction — the biggest spending rollback in nearly 30 years
✅ Support for our seniors, farmers, and small businesses — not special interests or foreign handouts
✅ Cracking down on fraud, cutting waste, and ending taxpayer-funded giveaways to illegal immigrants

Massive debt increases. As always Congress front loads the spending and places cuts years down the road to claim a faux victory that will never happen. Even if you’re in Congress when it’s time for the cuts, you’ll vote to cancel them for that years “debt emergency”

No tax on tips is just a YUGE middle finger to every other worker in the country. It was nothing but a vote buying gimmick

Also the biggest tax cut for billionaires, 16 million will lose health insurance, states can’t prosecute AI crimes for 10 years. The list goes on and on… no LIFE saving measures for non viable pregnant Women. You were a Dr first::: First, do no harm…. Shame on you! Who can support this? Disgusting. And we are adding like 3 trillion to the national debt. What so great about this?

No tax on tips is NOT in the bill. Did you read it???

That’s it?

Nothing but bullshit, Mr DesJarlais. Tax cuts for billionaires paid for by the death of local hospitals due to Medicaid cuts. Shame on you!

Thank you for all you do brother.

Wife and I are waiting on that $10,000. Even your own budget Office says you’re gonna add $2.4 trillion over the next 10 years  And what about that promise of no taxes on Social Security? Seems as though that got left out.

Putting tens of thousands in the top 1% How about no tax on social security? Border security? Maybe Exploding deficit, not reduction Where’s the support for seniors and farmers? I’m both. This administration is the biggest fraud in this country’s history. Grift, grift, and more grift. I’m ashamed and disgusted that you are my Congressman.

Thank you for all you do Dr D.

Have you heard if the DOGE checks are still coming?

People can't pay off all their debt and continue to sustain a living budget. That is the same approach government must use to continue to fund necessities while reducing debts. Playing politics with cuts in taxes, reductions in some areas of Medicaid or anything else while funding necessities is a commonsense approach in government. Just as it is if one applies it to sustaining a household, business or indebtedness.

Thank you 🙏 Brother we appreciate all you do Scott DesJarlais.

Have you reached out to TN Revenue and asked how much of a hit they have had so far in less sales tax being reported and PAID

What a stone cold dummy he is

I stand with Elon , Massie and Paul.... the republican party is a bunch of rinos that expand the deficit, and grow the government. Maga didn't want to end spending, they wanted the checkbook and you and all the other politicians have mortgaged our kids future , your kids too.

Why isn't that getting passed in the Senate? We have such a short time to turn America back to the constitution, and to stop sending American taxpayer money to every country with thier hand out. That is not what our tax system was designed for. We don't want to change the world, we just want America the land of the free back. American goverment was not created to be our mom and dad. Stop supporting every lazy person not willing to work and every illegal alien that we didn't want here in the first place.

Where’s my check? I’ll wait while you cheek 🕰️. Both sides lie and Americans suffer. I’m disappointed in all congress and senate members, the president and Musk

A move in the right direction

I contacted this office for help on the federal benefits package and was told no assistance would be considered

This sounds like a load of schitt.

No where in the bill does it say any of this.

Who gets $5,000?

Yes!!

Thank you, Elon Musk, for your service to this country.

Elon is wrapping up a temporary government role and returning to what he’s known for—leading innovation, advancing technology, and shaping the future of space exploration.🚀

Corrupt media outlets will try to spin his exit as a falling out. What they won’t mention is that his role was always limited by law—130 days of service, start to finish. That term ends tomorrow, exactly as intended.

And in that time, the impact was real:

$175 billion in estimated savings—through asset sales, cutting waste, canceling bad contracts, and stopping fraud. That’s $1,086.96 saved per taxpayer.

We’ve been asking for real accountability in how our tax dollars are spent. President Trump and his administration are answering that call—putting the American people first, making sure our tax dollars are no longer wasted, and cutting through the noise of those who’ve long benefited from the status quo.

❤️💯🇺🇸

liar.

Not only did Musk do immeasurable harm to this country, you voted to erase whatever "savings" DOGE claimed to make

What complete and utter bullshit . The amount of tax dollars spent for trumps lavish golf trips , maralargo , his nft meme dinner , having the military preform . THAT IS THE COLOSSAL WASTE of tax payer dollars . Those cuts were for him to spend money on his lavish bullshit . Let not mention the plain crashes due to the incompetence of the president and him placing unqualified loyalist in critical positions while cutting Cristal programs and research to make himself , Elon , and the rich even richer . You were a horrible doctor and you’re a horrible representative.

Too bad almost everything DOGE has none is illegal.

How exactly does "find all this wasteful spending, vote for the same spending and add to it" equate to taxpayer savings?

Anybody that believes that in a 130 days you can dissect any major business or corporation and find anything and most of it was done in 60 days is a stupid as the leader of that gang you don’t find waste by just firing people when you walk in the door.

Girl, please! He ain’t that into you.

You force anymore mistresses to have abortions lately?

Scott, you are a frigging idiot.

It doesn't help us if you don't accutually make the cuts on the waste he found.

Dude, stfu

🙄

Only smart thing Musk ever said was how bad of a deal the big beautiful deal is!!! Even he knows!!!

Elon's net Worth is $460B. DOGE didn't even save us 1/2 a Musk. 😂 1. DOGE promised $2 trillion in cuts. So you're applauding an 8% success rate (if the cuts even all occur). I wish I could have an 8% success rate and keep my job, but I'm not a congressman (or temporary gov employee). It cut American jobs, foreign medical and food aid, cancer research. air traffic control, and cyber warfare to name a few. And somehow, not one cut to the billions that Musk gets from gov contracts. He even siphoned a few more his way. 2. Could save at least 1/2 the same amount of money if Trump didn't attend the Super Bowl, the NCAA wrestling championship, Daytona 500, golfing every weekend in FL, retrofit a "free" plane, and potentially have a military style parade for his birthday 3. Not a single fraud charge has actually been filed. Not one. Alot of talk about Democrats getting kickbacks, yet not one actual case where it happened; and conspicuously no mention of Republican kickbacks 3. Trump's Big, beautiful bill actually increases the deficit by $4 TRILLION. Our grand children's grandchildren will be paying that off. In short, DOGE "saved" $4 so we can all pay $100 more (that's a 4% savings to the $4T increase for the MAGA accountants). How does that math work? At least we're not paying $104?? For me, I'll take planes not landing upside down, hitting helicopters, or computers crashing, continued cancer research, Americans employed, and food and medicine for disadvantaged people for $4.

You're as bigly a liar as your boi trump

Thank you Elon for your diligent work!! Thank you President Trump for working for the American people❤️❤️ God bless you both

Thank you Elon !

Make the cuts permanent and pray senate stops the stupid big beautiful bill that you ignorantly voted for

Bingo! Now do something about illegals in Tennessee. Action over words. Just don’t tell the mayor

Scott DesJarlais He didn't serve our country, he served his own best interests. "Elon Musk has direct business interests in 70% of the government agencies that DOGE targeted" Robert Reich

Totally agree!
