Today House Republicans, cheered on by the richest person on Earth, passed a budget framework that will cut support for the poorest people in our country.
All while cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy, and massively increasing the deficit.

I saw people chanting “tax the rich” at a republican town hall. There is a lot of talk about the democrats not finding a relatable message to unify the party. I think this could be it! Where can I get my hat/T-shirt?

Anyone want to bet that no one looks at the email responses that Musk asked for ?
It requires too much manpower and organization. Even w/AI
He will hold them in the event he has an interaction with someone.
If so, he can look up their response or lack of, and use it as cause for action.
