I CANNOT BELIEVE Musk had the nerve to post this, when Tesla never even paid ANY taxes last year, despite having an income of $2.3 BILLION dollars. You’re not subsidizing anyone, you greedy, ignorant bastard.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

To hell with Trump and Musk. Our grandparents and great grandparents and half a billion Americans didn't die defeating fascism, just so that we could allow a felon-rapist mobster and an unelected racist billionaire bring it here without opposition. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/its-time-t...

They’ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We aren’t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.

Interesting enough, we used to have proxy voting so folks could vote while they’re sick or other reasons. House Republicans eliminated proxy voting last session. If you aren’t in the building, you can’t vote. So, if you’re in the hospital, your 750,000 constituents lose their voice on the issue.

I wonder why Musk is focused on the federal civilian workforce (4% of the budget) and not federal contractors, which account for 3x more annual spending and are more prone to waste, fraud, and abuse?

McGovern: People voted for lower egg prices, not for a Middle East Mar-a-lago. People did not vote to send their sons and daughters into the tunnels of Gaza so that Jared Kushner and Donald Trump can build Trump Tower Gaza.
