The bull charged through the china shop, shattering centuries-old porcelain.
“We’re innovating!” he bellowed, kicking a vase into oblivion.
Glass dust settled like snow.
"Disruption is the future," he smiled, stepping on the shards.
Everyone clapped.
What a time to be alive—shaking my head. Congress has completely turned its back on the American people, and Elon’s been out here causing chaos since day one.
This time, I think the world is fixing to sufficiently punish the USA solely to spite that fat bastard, and I hope they do it swiftly so that the majority of us can have a hope to recover.
We are losing a generation of professionals and bright minds and they are being replaced with dumb as shit lackeys who barely know how to put their underwear on the right way. It’s going to take another generation to fix all of this… if we make it that long.
Worse still, your Cuntry [sic], is losing in every country. It will take more than 1 generatin to fix the crap country that you have become. Reep what you sew.
Do you want to lose a whole lot of tax revenue? Because making immigrants terrified to file tax returns is a surefire way to lose a lot of tax revenue.
Why? It’s not like non-citizens voluntarily paying their taxes will shun contributing to their fair share out of fear of deportation? Why? Makes no sense.
I think they already have sensitive information and this is just an excuse to redirect blame on IRS. How did a private prison that has contracts with this administration know the traffic patterns of immigrants in 2023. These evil people only see profit$ if more people are imprisoned.
Have you followed any of their actions the last few days? They’re clearly politicised and voting against basic constitutional rights, in favor of MAGA.
We’re witnessing the beginning of the Titanic. Of course there will always be an orchestra of sycophants playing bring in the clown but competent people will leave
Trump will escape this again of course but so many of his lackey's are going to prison and they all better hope he doesn't pass away before he signs those pardons.
If every non-corrupt, competent professional quits we will be left with nothing but an incompetent govt that is 100% loyal to Trump. He wants every single one of these people to quit and then he gets to hire every single important federal employee from a pool of loyalists.
Right, he added $9 trillion dollars to the deficit during his first term, shouldn't he want tax income to pay for that?
When hobbled like this, the IRS will only have the capacity to audit middle and low income people. The IRS has said in the past it takes dozens of agents to audit rich ppl.
100% they destroyed the IRS so they never have to pay taxes anymore , him and his friends, you remember the headache about tax returns first time he ran , he ain't having that again.
He put a hiring freeze on the IRS during his 1st term and Biden had to hire thousands of people to staff it back up again and Trump essentially fired all of those people. No one is going to want to work for the govt at this point.
This ridiculous madness of the destruction of the United States and it’s constitution and democracy really needs to stop with one move: impeachment now!
The issue with impeachment is that two-thirds majority (about 67 reps) of the senate must agree of "high crimes or misdemeanors"...and those R's needed are kissing felon's ass instead. 😒
Dems have 47, plus 3 independent. I wouldn't trust Sinema to be smart on throwing him out.
A hobbled IRS can't audit rich people. They've said before that it takes dozens of agents to audit people like Trump so when they are hobbled like now, they will only be able to audit low and middle income people.
We could have given him a trillion dollars to go away and would have saved money already. He added $9 trillion to the deficit during his last term, the most expensive president in history, and he'll blow past that in his first year at this rate.
Eroding the foundation of federal government institutions is an assault against every American. The targeting of federal employees in charge of upholding their duties is abhorrent and a direct attack against fairness. #Revolt is imminent.
This is how we got here. Do not resign!!! The world in which resigning sent a message calling people to action and changing police is #over; Now, resigning is collusion.
We were warned, love how the Trump/ light supporters are shocked! But god forbid they actually vote for a woman of color. Much rather own us libs…. I hate this fucker
If you want to own them back, vote in the Republican primaries and choose non-Trumplican candidates so regardless of who wins the mid-term elections, it opposes Trump.
It's close enough already that you don't need to win very many more seats back to take control anyway.
This makes sense. Trump wants the US to be Hungary, like his idol Orbon or Hitler. You gotta make people quit do you don’t look as bad and replace everyone with simple yes men.
So Krause is leaving because the final agreement was different from the last draft she was involved with and reviewed? Then who the heck actually approved it?
There are some hidden shenanigans going on here with this.

They are human trafficking people. These are not deportations. They are done without due process which is illegal. Trafficking is moving people across state lines illegally. They are trafficking people into slavery at concentration camps. Call it what it is. Change their narrative.

Oh wait…
Our government is getting seriously overrun with Nazis or their sympathizers and apologists.

#FuckTrump
I saw/heard Dems flipping some seats during current elections, which is good!
Crossing fingers the trend continues to oust the felon and his regime Admin.
He’s sharing it with Russia I’m sure.
and these people gave everyone's information to the wrong people.
Vote in your next Republican primary and choose Republican candidates that oppose Trump so regardless of who wins, the House will oppose him.
