Murphy: "That's just fancy talk to say, 'we're gonna give money to people who pledge loyalty to Trump, and we're not gonna give money to people who don't pledge loyalty.' Today it may be government contracts, but tomorrow it may be your tax refund."

Isn't it just so great that President Musk is using his apparently unchecked, unilateral authority as the head of a fake organization to go after the folks at the IRS who help taxpayers directly file their taxes for free - And based on the advice of a right wing conspiracy monger account

You know, I looked pretty hard at my ballot when I voted this year and I am fairly certain that Elon Musk's name was nowhere to be found

Of course Donald Trump's promise to halve energy costs in 18 months was ridiculous... But it's a little late to call out his campaign lies now, that should have been done months ago

Nancy Mace's resolution is a pathetic attempt to try and distract from their inability to govern by singling out 1 duly-elected Representative in 435.

It's also weird to claim Democrats are "obsessed" with trans people when she's the one tweeting about them 20+ times in <1 day.
