And it WILL go to shit, Jon Cryer, no matter how much Republicans may try to deny it. Like their fuehrer himself, Republicans are spineless cowards! But WE’RE NOT! 💪💪💪💪💪💪

Yea, but the OP isn't really making accurate claims although it's still bad.

Fools would go after Medicare and Social Security just because a Democrat (FDR) created them. JFK started USAID? Let's ditch that and kill thousands of people. Obama gave us affordable insurance? Let's whack that and kill more people. Doesn't matter. They'll keep voting for us.

I'll probably never vote for musk again.

The guillotine can only cut Elon's head off once, and it demands more sacrifices.

It's Capital T Treason.

Yep, this was always their plan. They just needed someone completely devoid of humanity in office to lead the charge.

I think Elon could stop this madness with one sentence:
My companies and I will start paying taxes, along with other billionaires.

lordmalignance.bsky.social•10 days ago

Elon will be their "bagman" - the guy left holding the bag while the other criminals get away.
Classic Villainy.
If the #TrumpCrimeSyndicate hadn't gutted the FBI already, the Feds would be wise to this scheme.

This is a good way to get run out of office on a rail, or possibly in a tumbrel, or maybe even on a rail inside of a tumbrel

Companies hire consultants to do their dirty work and avoid accountability exactly like this.

This will essentially end nursing home care. Without Medicaid anyone who can’t afford $$$thousands for private nurses will die at home starved in their own human waste.

freyag.bsky.social•10 days ago

We know how this will end THEY SHOT JFK FOR LESS THAN THAT SO HIS DAYS ARE NUMBERED HIM AND HIS FELONS

also, they couldn’t achieve it legislatively so they’re just letting some random guy cut it all and then, like you said, they can blame him. but ultimately, they still get what they want.

They do not have republican votes to do this. Any @senatedem.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social @wyden.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
Who entertains any negotiations is derelict in their duty. Make them do it all on their own. #NotASingleVote

I believe Denmark made an offer to buy us.. can we get a vote on that?

Even before Medicaid Part D made it illegal to negotiate drug costs, the head of the committee left for his 7 figure job, literally at PHARMA.

He resigned to take the job even before it passed.

Theyre the biggest insider welfare queens around.

If Elon manipulated even one vote, accidental or otherwise with Starlink, 75+ years on statutes alone show up.
Pass it on!

cynthianevil.bsky.social•10 days ago

Why aren’t dem electeds raising merry hell, showing up at these agencies, rallying people, making noise & news?

mcberner.bsky.social•10 days ago

cuz they're busy sending texts begging us for money so they can write strongly worded letters

mrsissy.bsky.social•10 days ago

Exactly!

julianimperatorus.bsky.social•10 days ago

It’s possible. But I think you give them too much credit. They’re simply too cowardly to oppose him. They’ve been following the same #GOP playbook since Trump announced he’d be running again: public capitulation while privately begging and praying for Democrats to save them.
