The fact that Musk has lost $100B over the last month but is still the wealthiest person on Earth and financially unharmed in the slightestā€”all while wealth and income inequality is worse now than it was after the Great Depressionā€”is Exhibit A on why we need to tax billionaires out of existence.

So many Democrats seem to be passive during the decimation of our democracy, but not AOC. Itā€™s refreshing to see a congressional rep like @aoc.bsky.social voice concerns and push back against the MAGA Republican agenda. She stands for us. Just sayinā€™ šŸ™ŒšŸ¼ #Badass #WomensHistoryMonth

I know this is eugenicist warfare against the people, meant to kill massive numbers of disabled, elderly, sick people, but I don't understand how nazis believe they're somehow exempt from pandemics/global warming. I guess the plan is create a cave of capital,. Dr. Strangelove style.

ā€œNo American can be proud of a govt that carries out change in this way. Neither can these actions be rationalized by discussion of past grievances or appeals to efficiency. Everything can be more efficient, but adherence to the rule of law is paramountā€ www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

Are the next 4 years really going to be logging on everyday to sentences like "a 19 year old doge intern called Big Balls has your social security number" because I'm already at capacity for this sort of thing

Great šŸ§µ. This is a five alarm fire and needs be treated as such. Dems politely asking is not helping. Things need to get LOUD.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. When interacting with ICE, you have rights guaranteed by the Constitution, no matter your immigration status. ā¬‡ļø

A billionaire talking about getting by with less is why we should have never gotten rid of guillotines
