Thread. This is what Lina Kahn was trying to undo at the FTC under Biden. My conspiracy theory is that the billionaires went to Trump mostly to stop Kahn.

Maybe you were fired from your job as a federal employee or you are struggling to put food on the table or to afford a staple like eggs. DO NOT WORRY Trump has a clear plan to help, including (checks notes) spending $200 million in taxpayer dollars to thank HIMSELF. #WTF apple.news/AOTemmT96Q1u...

I don't think I need to tell bookworms, authors, and writers that, if the USPS is privatized, everyone from big stores like Barnes & Nobles to indies like the one I work for is fucked, right?

Republicans in the senate propose a budget increase of $340B. Their proposal lets the 2017 tax cuts expire at the end of this year.
