So I logged in to check my student loans last night—it turns out that crazy communist Joe Biden erased my debt. Wild. Here I was, ready to die in debt for the economy… for President Trump.

Doctors call it the Physiology of Poverty: The stress of trying to survive every day breaks the mind and the body. That's why working class people in America live SEVEN years shorter than the very wealthy.

Uh-oh, more bad news for Tesla… Things are so bad that Elon Musk had to step in and calm employees. In an all-hands meeting, he told arsonists to “stop being psycho,” —while a new report shows Tesla owners are unloading their vehicles as fast as investors are dumping shares.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but these people are deliberately eliminating employees to dismantle everything—just so they can turn around and say, ‘Look how broken it is,’ and justify privatizing it at rock-bottom prices for billionaires. That’s the whole plan.

No surprise here that he mentioned Solana specifically, considering Trump Coin is built on that network. Trump is doing a classic pump-and-dump.

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

Strange how the president, controlling both the House and Senate, still can’t navigate the Constitution’s legislative process—authoritarianism was never fond of rules.

Most Americans can’t stand Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg. Musk’s billionaire cosplay as a “man of the people” falls flat, with 54% holding an unfavorable view, while Zuckerberg’s corporate grip has 66% of Americans rolling their eyes. When the rich hoard power, the people see right through it.

We’ll meet their cruelty with community, their hate with solidarity. Every time they try to isolate us, we’ll strengthen our connections. Every right they take, we’ll build support systems. Every lie they spread, we’ll answer with truth—loud, proud, and unshaken.

I'm not sure if it’s just me, but Steve Bannon’s salute at CPAC today looks eerily similar to this shot of Elon Musk from a few weeks ago—and both are nearly identical to this image from the 1930s.

While the top 0.1% hoard record wealth, the bottom 50% fight for scraps. This is by design. Every dollar spent at Amazon, Walmart, or Netflix fuels their empire. I’m done contributing. No more subscriptions, fast fashion, or corporate convenience. I’m choosing people over profits. Who’s with me? ✊

Trump won, but it’s not a mandate. Only 23% of Americans voted for him. Turnout was lower than in 2020, and more people voted for someone else—or didn’t vote at all. That’s not the majority. This should be said over and over.

Directly hurting his base! Republican districts benefited the most from Biden’s CHIPS Act. Over 50% of projects are in GOP districts, and 19 of the top 20 for clean energy investment are Republican-held. Many GOP lawmakers opposed the bill but now have celebrated its success in their communities.

Federal workers are fighting back against corporate greed and right-wing attacks on public service. Musk & Trump’s cronies want to gut essential jobs, but the people who keep this country running aren’t backing down. Solidarity with the workers rising up!

Socialism for Musk, struggle for us. While people scrape by, Musk lands another massive government handout. With $3.7B in contracts last year and $22B from the Pentagon, this ‘Iron Dome’ deal is just more handouts for the world's richest person.

Remember that the average American reads at a 7th—to 8th-grade level, so our message must be clear, simple, and direct. Ditch the jargon. Speak in plain language that people can see, feel, and understand.

Trump is trying to blame Biden for inflation, just like we knew he would. Democrats need to keep repeating the truth—rising costs, from groceries to gas, are because of Trump’s policies. We must remind people again and again that Trump is to blame for what they see and feel every day.
