Nervous Musk, Trump, Vance have all been outclassed in public arguments these last few days. Government failure, stock market crash, and dictatorial alliances are not popular. People are starting to realize that there is no truth here beyond the desire for personal wealth and power. (2/2)

That is $1 million for every one million metric tons of corn, beans, rice and wheat that Trump/Musk are now telling our farmers we won't need for USAID this year.
Our farmers are the best. Watch the commodities markets tank.
Noem can thank Trump for that too.

I'm a 2%er. I know what $ buys me: preferred seating, access & influence. Restaurants mayors decisionmakers
#CitizensUnited was the START of the coup. It allowed the later more visible corruption
Every argument & warning against unlimited money in politics has been completely validated

McConnell voting to confirm Kash Patel right after officially announcing his retirement was a perfectly timed fuck you to the country

Trump's shut down of USAID is more than 10 times bigger than President Carter's Russian grain embargo.
Can't wait for the farmers caravan driving their tractors down Pennsylvania Avenue in protest.

Bingo. I keep telling people I know that there’s no grand plan here, or to anything he does. He’s not playing 4D chess. He’s a fascistic sociopath that seeks adoration and applause for everything he does, and he wants to be the focus of EVERYTHING.
It’s that simple, folks, don’t overthink it.

Many social security accounts are linked with personal bank accounts for direct deposit.
Don't be surprised if Musk isn't looking at your bank balances too. Add a little hacking (that's what his tech bros are good at) and good bye your nest egg.

To be clear: Even greater damage will be done by the loss of federal government productivity. The workers who are losing their jobs were worth more than they were being paid! We are all poorer when roads, planes, and food are unsafe, when parks are closed, etc.
