Judges have determined that what Musk has been doing was not legal and had to stop. He has not stopped. Whose police will put him in handcuffs? Bondi’s DOJ? Patel’s FBI? Gabbards CIA? Musk better not take a step in the Democratic trifecta states…

These 10 wealthy folks paid a total of $54 billion in taxes over the last 4 years. If they had paid 25%, like many Americans do, the total would have been $396 billion, an increase of $342.25 billion. There are 735 billionaires in the U.S. We need to review not only budget cuts but also revenue.
