Trump and Elon Musk keep making things up. 🚫 $3B for a football stadium? False. 🚫 40% pay raise for Congress? False. 🚫$50M for Hamas condoms? False. Not even on the right continent. This isn’t just ignorance—it’s reckless disinformation, and they're using it to justify tearing our government down.

CFPB - closed USAID - closed Medicaid - under attack NIH cancer funding - frozen Department of Education - under attack But do you know who just got a NEW government contract for $38,858,978 literally today? SpaceX — owned by Elon Musk

SCOOP: Kash Patel took $25,000 from a production company with ties to Russia propaganda activity to appear in an anti-FBI docuseries. He did not respond to questions about this. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

If you needed any additional proof that Trump is in bed with Putin and the Russian oligarchs, here you go.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

ICYMI — 🚨 💰 “Trump’s tax agenda will add at least $5 Trillion to the debt”👇🏽🤔 AGAIN: They don’t care about the debt, they just want to cut programs for regular folks to make room for tax cuts for the rich. (As Trump tweets “Balanced budget!” Like we’re all morons)

Actions have consequences

Demonizing the only people trying to help is a convenient way to assist your own enemy. -Democrats wanted to protect us from this. -The DNC had 200 speakers warning us of this. -Kamala worked for 107 days straight to travel the country & fight for us. Voters stayed home anyway. 🗳️ This is on YOU.

they are mostly targeting black employees so this is quite literally just a repeat of woodrow wilson’s segregationist purge of the federal government

CNN’s @kaitlancollins.bsky.social : “Trump said 🇨🇦 is going to be implementing a $1.3 billion border plan... I should note that's actually something that was announced back in December.”

Finally, we’re starting to see some fight. We need more of this 🔥 🚨Trump’s decision to shut down USAID has frozen critical work to deliver vital assistance around the globe, and put China in the driver’s seat.

Congressional delegation outside USAID now: “We are here to shed a light on a crime unfolding before our eyes.”

I don’t know how else to interpret the actions of republicans and the administration in the past two weeks, other than they’ve waged war on the American people.

Schoolhouse Rock is going to have to remake its cartoon on how a bill becomes a law.

From @econchrisclarke : “The 3 reasons Trump gives to justify his tariffs do not make sense nor will they accomplish those goals.” (With receipts) #TrumpTradeWar Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DFl4Q-V...
