Also, a trade deficit is not a "subsidy".
They're conning them and stealing from all of us, and they're cheering them on.
Complete fucking idiots.
Any revenue raised by Trump's tariffs will be coming out of YOUR pocket.

No taxation without representation!
Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.

It's almost as if they are lying about everything...
Weird, right?
🙄
After we published a public audit on Saturday, Elon Musk’s DOGE deleted hundreds more claims from its mistake-plagued “wall of receipts,” wiping out an additional $4 billion in so-called savings that the group had claimed to secure for U.S. taxpayers.

What. The. Actual. Fuck?
Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.

This is the House Republican budget plan that Donald Trump endorsed.

Trickle up economics.

TWO DAYS AGO, a government employee declared in a court filing that Elon Musk is actually not in charge of *or* an employee of DOGE.

MINUTES AGO, the President of the United States said: “I signed an order creating the Department of Government Efficiency and put a man named Elon Musk in charge.”

Elon Musk claims DOGE has saved $55 billion, but the numbers don’t add up. DOGE released a list of canceled contracts totaling $16 billion in supposed savings. However, nearly half of that came from an $8 billion ICE contract—except that contract was actually worth just $8 million.

Trump handed massive tax cuts to the rich in 2017. Now he's planning even more cuts.

How are Trump and MAGA Republicans planning to pay for them?

By making it harder for millions of Americans to access Medicaid, food stamps, and other federal programs.

Trickle up economics.

Tell me again how it was necessary to lay off thousands of government employees to "cut the fat" to "reduce the deficit", only to give more than that to the richest companies in the country...
And his cult still thinks he's going to help the working class.
🙄
Trump wants to extend his tax cuts for rich individuals, which would add $4.6T to the deficit.

But he wants to go even further, cutting the corporate tax rate to 15%.

It's yet another absolutely shameless giveaway.

This is so fucked.
The good news: CDC's webpages have been restored following court orders.
The bad news: many have this despicable banner attached to them. We will be getting into misconceptions in gender ideology in a later post. For now, we are hurt and ashamed, and we stand with the LGBTQIA+ community.

My dad relies on Medicaid. He makes $1,437 a month, and that's too much to qualify for SNAP. The poorest of the poor are the ones this will hurt. This is terrible.

Definitely just a coincidence, right? 🙄
When Trump took office, the NLRB had 24 separate investigations into Musk’s corporations for violating workers’ rights.

But presto...Trump fired three officials at that agency, effectively stalling the board's ability to rule on cases.

See how this works?

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.

Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.

Funny how that works, huh?
