The Senate just voted on a simple idea: If you make $1 BILLION in a year, you don't deserve a tax handout. Democrats voted yes. Republicans voted no. Republicans are planning huge tax cuts for the rich, but they’re not the ones who need a break — working people do.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?

The processing fee for a passport is $130 but there can be other costs and you have to get documents establishing your citizenship like a birth certificate and a photograph. This is the new pull tax if the SAVE act passes.

Explain to me again who was elected President? Why is the unelected billionaire talking at Presidential press conference? Who’s in charge? Lots of fact checking needed on that one.

Thanks to Elon Musk, college-aged kids-one of whom touted he was “racist before it was cool” – have access to your personal data. Read it again. Musk’s DOGE team got access to Americans’ SSNs, bank info, & more. There’s a lot to unpack. Join me @10aET on #Velshi w/ WIRED’s @zoeschiffer.bsky.social

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Hey “price of eggs” Trump voters, your rotting gourd god said that prices are going to go up for a “little while” thanks to his tariffs, and that it will cause some “pain”, but that it’s ok, because you “understand.” Do you understand that you voted for higher prices and pain?

Another of the many blatantly illegal actions this Administration is undertaking. If Congressional Repubs were serious about upholding their oaths to "support and defend the Constitution" they'd be calling this out, launching inquiries, and refusing to confirm these criminals.

If you don't think Social Security & Medicare are next, you're not paying attention. If you voted for this, you deserve all that's coming. I've spent my entire life a bleeding heart for others less fortunate, but I have no drops left for you. I feel nothing... except for your children. Damn you all.

The Framers foresaw this problem and figured legislators' ambition, self-preservation, and self-respect would drive them to act against a tyrant. The Framers didn't expect a majority of Congress would be cowards and fools who cheered it like pigs celebrating the arrival of the butcher.

We passed a bill in committee yesterday that felonizes elected officials if they vote against Trump’s immigration policy. Let that sink in. Duly elected officials will go to jail- will have a criminal record- if they do not vote for and support Trump’s policies.

Donald Trump, in his inaugural address on January 20, 2025: “We will forge a society that is colorblind and merit-based.” This is the same man who built his whole career on nepotism, cronyism, and rigging the system for himself and members of his good ol’ boys club.

Trump Presidential Library. An oxyMORON, but I have questions: are ABC’s $15M & Zuck’s $25M “donations” money laundering? Will lib include “fake news” of J6 “peaceful tour” of capital? Or classified docs from ML bathroom (with actual artifacts)? Have a golden escalator? Be built on ML golf course?

Have we heard anything from Midwest farmers abt Columbia’s threat for a retaliatory tariff on US imports? They import 97% of corn from us. 25% tariffs would certainly cut into profits. Guessing that’s not the impact they thought their vote would get them.
