Where will the money go? Krasnov said he knows some very “nice Russian oligarchs” (oxymoron by an orange moron). Clearly, he doesn’t care if they can’t pass a US citizenship test. He can’t either. And if they do pledge to uphold the Constitution, it’s about as meaningless as him doing it.

“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, but only if they pay me 5 million dollars for my instant-citizenship Gold Card.💰” -Comrade Krasnov #GrifterInChief

Reminds me of when I heard a 10yo say “Make it great? Again? When was it great? With the racism? The slavery? The sexism? Killing Native Americans and stealing their land?” Wait until they get to “The Jungle” in school - unless that gets banned first.

Could not love this more.

I suspect undocumented workers pay more taxes than the top 1%. They also do vital jobs to put food on tables, care for the elderly and sick, while enabling the rest of us to carry on. Compared to native born folks, they commit a tiny fraction of violent crimes. We all know what Jesus would do here.

It’s a completely made up intangible form of currency with no intrinsic value. Why do we need to “reserve” it? Duh, we don’t.

Dear God (if you exist - because honestly…wtf?): Please don’t let fElon47 see this story. He hates eagles (one was filmed trying to eat his face off) and most of California because he doesn’t own very much of it. He has access to the nuclear codes, and Congress let him install loyalists. R U there?

The Fourth Estate started crumbling when Fox was able to call itself a news network. Elon turned Twitter into an online nazi bar, and Bezos is crushing the Post. So nobody will go do the “man on the street” coverage of how great everything is? We’re just not going to talk about WTF is going on?

Death by 1000 cuts to democracy. Felon47 voters screwed their country and put him in power to dismantle the checks and balances that stopped some of his worst impulses in his first reign of terror. They chose the lying, felonious grifter - as if he cares how much their eggs or gas cost. Morons.

Australian newspaper "The Sun-Herald" opinion piece calls it out. American msm, take notes.

One week later: I stand corrected. Today was 100x worse.

The top 0.1% of Americans control $22 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth. Read that back. Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.

Instead, our politicians want us to work ourselves until death. Republicans in particular want to get rid of child labor laws and strip away the social security benefits we’ve all paid into so we can never retire. So their rich donors can get richer off our labor.

Every day feels like we’re watching ourselves in a horror movie and yelling at the screen to our own deaf ears: “The call is coming from inside the house!”

Not a shred of empathy. What a wretched excuse for a human being.

Scientists have known this for years but under the anti-woke regime of Felon47, research into more effective pain management for women will now be illegal? It’s not enough that some of us will die in childbirth or miscarriage. We must suffer maximum pain. www.nationalgeographic.com/science/arti...

Insanity much there, Felon47?

Greedy grifters gonna grift. It’s why they love what the fElon’s teenage goons are doing - more money for them!

Heard today: There are a bunch of people who need to go watch the Schoolhouse Rock videos. 👏 👏 👏 Let me help with a link to the lyrics. All videos on Disney+ and most on YouTube. www.schoolhouserock.tv

NEW: Google used to warn you when you were seeing low-quality search results. Then, in the weeks leading up to the 2024 election, the company quietly turned that warning off www.platformer.news/google-data-...

TRUMP: We will be a merit based society.

Following in X’s footsteps, Meta seeks to capitalize on alternative fact echo chambers. How? Viral disinformation posts can be monetized now that there is no more fact checking on its platforms.

Meta has gone full X. So glad I left those platforms.

This is the House Republican budget plan that Donald Trump endorsed. Trickle up economics.

I’ve never been more embarrassed to be a US citizen.

It appears that the worst domestic midair aviation crash in decades was not enough of a tragedy for fElon to pause the senseless and indiscriminate hack job on the FAA. apple.news/AQAxHe8YiROe...

Hero. Never heard of him before today but he is 1000% an American hero in my book. www.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Trickle up economics.

90% of Republicans approve of Felon47. They are stuck in their echo chambers, sticking with the Fox/faux world. Will it take real personally damaging trauma to snap them out of it? We will all be collateral damage because of them. news.gallup.com/poll/656891/...

We’ve got some real geniuses ripping through the US government under Felon47. Whoever voted for the orange 💩 deserves this chaos. The rest of us don’t. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Lindsey and Mitch don’t, but for any R Senators who have kids and grandkids, do they just not care about how they leave the Earth for future generations? Or do they think “Surely my spinelessness will get them a place in Elon’s Mars colony. Fuck everyone else.” www.politico.com/live-updates...
