Casar: "You know what Elon Musk doesn't seem to be looking into? His own contracts."

If you want an inside look at what we’re up against, follow Elon Musk’s twitter posts for a few days. Much ignorant and irrational ranting.

This is the issue. It’s not even about foreign aid! It’s about breaking the law.

LIVE: Several congressional Democrats are gathered outside USAID to stand in opposition of its illegal closure by Trump/Musk. C-SPAN is livestreaming it here: www.c-span.org/event/news-c... That's my member of Congress talking, Don Beyer; he just said Musk is "doing China's bidding."

Could we start a campaign to ask retail and grocery stars and gas stations to indicate how much of the cost of a product we buy is to cover their new tariff taxes? For example: Dozen Eggs $2.68 Trump Tariff .67 Total Cost $3.38

What is the best name for 45? He doesn’t deserve the title of President or even the use of his last name. I’ve seen a number of names for him, but I haven’t settled on one. Traitor felon 45? T-Rump or tRump? The orange buffoon? What’s your favorite?
