Don’t just take my word for it. Here’s Elon happily telling a host: “That’s the big one to eliminate.”

Easy to say when you’re the world’s richest man. Not so easy when you’re a senior depending on both.

If he does that, my husband and I will be homeless.

Exactly, most Americans can't afford to buy a Tesla on the White House lawn. What a betrayal.

Sen Schiff I am angry and appalled by the actions of spineless Schumer. Shut down the government if we must. The rapist is destroying it anyway. Schumer needs to be removed. We need fighters not wimps in Washington

eatiegourmet.bsky.social•15 days ago

He is an ignorant moron that doesn't care about America. He is a traitor to a country he holds no allegiance to or ever took an oath to support or defend. He is decimating America. This is not about "waste, fraud, and abuse." GET RID OF ELON.

Vote NO to the spending bill!

fosterthecat.bsky.social•14 days ago

Don't vote for the spending bill. Let the government shut down until you get concessions.

angelsinvelvet.bsky.social•14 days ago

You Dems better not help the Republicans keep the government open. Vote NO on the spending bill.

If the government takes my Social Security then I want every single dime I put into it back with interest! I work my ass off for that money!

There is FAFO, and Steal People’s Money and Find Out.

His comments are so uninformed and ignorant it is hard to believe he really believes it. Illegal immigration’s who work pay into SS, but cannot collect it and cannot vote. He is threatens the security and health of our seniors and disabled. He is threatening our democracy.

trinabear.bsky.social•12 days ago

Please vote no one cloture
Censure Schumer
Vote to have AOC take over for Schumer

joanlingen.bsky.social•8 days ago

Mr. Schiff, I appreciate your hard work, but could you please give any insight what you and your colleagues are doing to actually stop this clearly insane President and if it's possible to involve some conscientious Republican colleagues?

rmasand.bsky.social•15 days ago

What a stinkin' crock! Social security and Medicare are not entitlement spending. Also - illegal immigrants do not receive benefits of any kind and he knows that as well as anybody. And they don't vote. Lying dipshit.

areyoucertain.bsky.social•15 days ago

Gosh, what a hard time yon interviewer gave him. Sheesh.

radiator9987.bsky.social•13 days ago

You're voting no today on the Republican CR today

lisacarp.bsky.social•12 days ago

Vote no on cloture. Hold them responsible for the shutdown. Organize a nationwide march asap and get more people in the streets - marching with you. Reelection concerns are moot - it’s time to draw the line.

the-dudemeister.bsky.social•15 days ago

They're treasonous traitors to The United States.

I want Elon Musk & Donald Trump dead.

Full stop.

gailburt.bsky.social•15 days ago

Stop him

jerrym1952.bsky.social•11 days ago

Please tell Trump, Musk, Vance that The 2 Trillion dollar tax cut means that the rich must pay 4 times more taxes.

jerrym1952.bsky.social•11 days ago

I want Trump and Musk and Vance arrested for breaking the law. Please make it happen.

drmyeyes.bsky.social•15 days ago

I'm your constituent. I know you're on our side, but please do more.

taurusbutterfly.bsky.social•1 day ago

Congress is back today targeting Medicaid to fund the Billionaire Tax Cuts. Hope Democrats are ready.

taurusbutterfly.bsky.social•13 days ago

Are Democratic Senators behind Americans to Vote NO on the CR Interim Bill? Americans want Democratic Senators to be strong. The Republican Senators have abdicated their power to veto the Tariffs; Americans are taking notice.

taurusbutterfly.bsky.social•14 days ago

Just remember, Trump put this person in charge of our government. This puts Americans' safety at risk.

rjmmm.bsky.social•15 days ago

Not just seniors, but yes it would be a disaster for them. My mentally handicapped sister-in-law is on Medicaid and also receives her deceased father's social security. It also always bothers me how GOP calls SS an entitlement when it comes out of our paychecks.

taurusbutterfly.bsky.social•14 days ago

Realize that with the Medicaid cuts in the interim bill, a lot of Americans will have to bring their loved ones home from assisted living facilities. You are so right, this Bill should NOT pass.

mistolsmama.bsky.social•15 days ago

But social security is OUR money that we've been paying into the program since our first jobs. That money belongs to US, not the government. 🤬

sassyhudson.bsky.social•12 days ago

VOTE NO ON CLOTURE
VOTE NO ON SPENDING BILL

tmsoc.bsky.social•15 days ago

You have to do more. You have an opportunity here.

auntiefax4.bsky.social•15 days ago

So are you going to vote no in order to save both?

cwilsonk.bsky.social•12 days ago

You’re voting no on the continuing resolution, right?!

kathysertich.bsky.social•15 days ago

He is full of shit. Maybe we should get Musk out of our government and cut off his government contracts, we can save money and he will leave. Let’s try that.

oldhippie71.bsky.social•9 days ago

It is time to for Schumer to resign as Senate Minority Leader. When Joe Biden stayed in the race too long, it most likely cost us the election. Schumer cost us the one chance we had to flex our muscles. We gave up everything, we got nothing. He has to go. You can help make this happen.

We invite you to show up at any Teslatakedown!

What I'm I and others supposed to do. I'm disabled and SSDI is my only income! I will end up just another homeless person in California. Can we start a court case now? Thank Adam Schiff

jodysaigs.bsky.social•15 days ago

It’s only federal budget line item that comes close to the mega billions of Elons federal defense contracts.

He’s obviously unsatiated.

narda1.bsky.social•14 days ago

What is in the bill!!!This Repub CR, that they claim will keep the government open, is a perfect example of why you must read bills.

daniellesw.bsky.social•13 days ago

Vote against cloture and vote against the CR!!!

zen4energy.bsky.social•12 days ago

@schiff.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov you think Rs are going to play nice if you vote on cloture? You weren't invited to write the bill; you give up all congressional power to demand it be used as signed, congress loses power. How can that be better than having power to reign in abuses of a tyrant?

mdwca.bsky.social•14 days ago

Which is why you AND your colleagues MUST HOLD THE LINE AND VOTE AGAINST THE FUNDING BILL. GOP has no problems sticking it to you. We NEED YOU to stop this before it is too late. 🙏

penni5644.bsky.social•12 days ago

Glad to hear you will be voting No on the CR tomorrow.

melodygardy.bsky.social•12 days ago

Vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill! They're gonna blame you no matter what. Please suck it up. You also never get credit, so give that up too. Resist him in all things. No funding for him to impound.

literatesince1959.bsky.social•12 days ago

Vote NO cloture. We survived 35 days of Trump's sabotage and over a Xmas holiday. Timing more critical now. September will be too late.

williamknowles.bsky.social•4 days ago

Every time I find out Trump hates and insults someone, I look them up and start following them.
