How long have you been awake today? Say, 12 hours so far? In that time, the Trump-Musk USAID defundings have starved to death 1236 human beings – two-thirds of them children. Dwell on this.

Trump, Musk and Rubio have sent millions of the poorest people in the world to their death. On purpose.
Why? For tax cuts for billionaires? To appease Putin? What is the possible justification for this?

SecState Rubio claims that no on has died because of USAID cuts and suggested that I had lied in my reporting. So here I show him photos of specific children who have died because of the Trump administration's reckless cancelation of aid: www.nytimes.com/2025/05/31/o...

I’m so confused by the folks who said that raising the minimum wage would increase the price of every day goods while also being okay with tariffs raising the price of every day goods…
I reckon they are okay paying higher prices as long as it doesn’t help anyone making a minimum wage.

Elon Musk said he’d cut the federal budget by $2 trillion
Quickly lowered this to $1 trillion
Now he’s down to $150 billion
And even THAT appears to be an overestimate of $92 billion
So-after firing thousands of workers and destroying government services
This clown will cut $58 billion
Maybe

i have learned that way too many americans see the concept of 'freedom' simply as the potential to be rich and privileged, even if they aren't, & not things like freedom from dying from a preventable illness if you're poor, or being imprisoned for minor crimes, or persecuted by the police, etc

Pay attention to this: Musk is trying to make our air traffic control system "dependent” on him by integrating his equipment, which has not gone through security and risk-management review.
It's corruption. And it's dangerous.
Fire Elon Musk.

The Social Security Administration is cutting 7,000 jobs and closing half of its regional offices. It's no coincidence that Elon Musk called Social Security a "ponzi scheme." They're gutting the program YOU'VE PAID INTO to make room for more billionaire tax cuts.
Now is the time to speak up.

The secret to American politics is this-stupid people think rich people are smart when in fact rich people are merely amoral. If not to begin with, then the love of money has made them so. 🇺🇸💰

Social Security has been 7 years from going bankrupt for the past 56 years.
This is a lie Republicans created and perpetuate to condition you into accepting the loss of an earned benefit you paid for in every check you ever earned.
