The People’s Union USA: A nationwide blackout is designed to shed light on consumers' impact and to push for economic change. The 24-hr spending pause sends a message to corporations, industries, and politicians about economic power in the U.S., which they say is "in the hands of the wealthy elite."

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Remember when billionaire Elon Musk brought his son X Æ A-Xii to the Oval Office? Trump replaced the 145-year-old desk with a C&O desk. He has called it a “temporary change.”

OH, HELLLL NO!! Republican Bill would make Trump’s birthday a federal holiday. Tenney’s bill comes on the heels of a bill intended to carve Trump’s face into Mount Rushmore, which came on the heels of another measure to allow Trump to seek a third term.

Not surprisingly, the Trump and GOP budget has nothing about no tax on tips, nothing on no tax on overtime, and nothing on no tax on social security. It does have a $4.5 trillion tax cut for billionaires however.

Trump and Musk are making accusations of corruption in the government ranks even as they ask voters to trust that they are not taking advantage of their own positions despite an extensive array of conflicts of interest unlike what any president or presidential adviser has had in modern times.

Elon Musk calling Dems corrupt is laughable. He's nixing government contracts while receiving billions in government contracts across Tesla and SpaceX. Now he oversees the agencies currently investigating him. What do you think Elon cares about– serving America or himself?

Indeed. Given his role, Elon Musk is subject to challenge as a principal Officer under Article II who must be appointed with Senate confirmation. Such a challenge is bound to be made and would need to be taken very seriously.

The vice president took a stab at theology to defend the administration’s rank cruelty. Then, a higher authority weighed in. Pope Francis condemned the Trump administration over “mass deportations” and even indirectly criticized Vance’s use of ordo amoris to defend Trumpist nationalism.
