Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

212 House Democrats held firm. 38 Senate Democrats did too. Only 8 broke ranks. They gambled with our healthcare and our trust. We’re angry—and we have every right to be. 📞 (202) 224-3121

Pretty fitting that Trump's "electors" receive pardons that are just as fake as they are.
Trump claims he "pardoned" his fake electors. He doesn't have that power.
The president executed a half-baked plan cooked up by pardon attorney Ed Martin.

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

We were *this close* to protecting affordable healthcare. 212 House Democrats and 38 in the Senate stood strong. But 8 broke faith with us. They caved to MAGA cruelty. We’re not asking them to flip—we’re telling them they failed the people who trusted them. 📞 (202) 224-3121

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

He delivered a #CupOfJoe in a way where it’s EASY to SEE the truth. I’m disappointed that some Democrats abandoned our priorities.

Pardoning your co-conspirators to own the libs!
Most of their charges are state charges, so this doesn’t actually help them. It’s gross, but it doesn’t really move the needle.
