The real “Gulf of America” is between the people who believe every word Musk & Trump are saying and the people who know how incredibly full of shit they are.

Here’s the hard truth: this country’s people are tired of subsidizing billionaires. Want your cars to sell? Do it without subsidies. Want to shoot rockets into space? Get by without govt contracts. Want to build a website? Build your own internet first. We are DONE with you.

Intolerable. The national parks belong to the people. Once you’ve ruined them, mined them, and sold them for profit, they’re never coming back.

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

The resistance will bring down Musk and Trump. Congress, wake up before your power is gone. The GOP begging Trump to release money to their states is pathetic—stand up to this tyranny. Congress controls the purse strings.

People who say "Elon is working for free" are exactly the type of idiots who allow billionaires to rob them.

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

“Re-establishes the longstanding norm that only the president or the Attorney General can speak for the United States when stating what the law is.” That was NEVER a longstanding norm. EVER. Don’t let them rewrite history and civics like that.

These idiots are completely INCOMPETENT. That so many Americans thought they were better than the intelligent woman shows just how dumb Americans are.

Let me speak to the DOGE audit language. Many people who work in both the Treasury and specifically the IRS are CPAs. Most audit firms hire CPAs. A 19yo coder has absolutely no idea how to accurately identify waste or fraud. Calling what DOGE is doing as a audit, is a flat out lie.

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.

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

Can you imagine thinking a government employee making 40K processing Medicaid payments to a parent with medically fragile children is the enemy, while thinking a billionaire who sends his sperm to random women and takes billions from the government to go to Mars is the good guy? WTF.

The IRS Free File pilot program helped 140K taxpayers save $5.6M in tax filing costs in 2024. Despite recent claims, the program is still running and is now available to 30M people in 2025. Any attempt to dismantle it will enrich the tax prep industry at your expense.

This data from the AP is clear. Americans don't want Musk to cut education spending, in fact, they want more funding for public education. Taking away funding for kids is not what the American people thought they were voting for. www.detroitnews.com/story/news/p...

NOW: We’re rallying at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau with Sen. @warren.senate.gov, Rep. Waters, @moveon.org, @boldprogressives.org, and many more. The CFPB protects consumers from predatory practices, and we must protect the CFPB from President Musk’s attempts to kill it.

Trump is gutting the CFPB as a favor to his billionaire buddies. Here's what the CFPB does, how this move harms every working American to the tune of billions of dollars in exploitation, and the Unions you can support who are working to stop this injustice. www.qasimrashid.com/p/cfpb-is-su...
