The Trump-Musk Regime is reportedly planning to cut as much as 50% of the IRS workforce.
Make no mistake: this will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163 billion a year.

Does everyone remember the GOP fury over Hillary Clinton using a private server to send government emails on? The rage that there could have been classified info exposed?
We now have a private citizen with zero security clearance taking all classified info hostage. Where is that anger now?

Why does the world's richest man want to gut the CFPB?
Because it would shield him from having to follow financial laws to keep customers' money safe — and give him access to confidential records about his competitors.

Trump pulled out of NAFTA and created his own trade agreement with Canada and Mexico in 2018.
Trump now says Canada and Mexico are ripping us off in the deal that HE created and need tariffs to make it fair.
His deal is ripping us off, so he needs to charge us more to fix it.

I think countries around the world should levy tariffs specifically on Tesla in response to US tariffs, as well as banning Twitter as a national security threat

We did not have a FAA administrator to respond to the tragic crash last night in DC. Why? Because Elon Musk pushed the head appointed under Biden to resign after he fined SpaceX for failing to follow safety license requirements. www.theverge.com/news/603113/...
The FAA is facing a major crisis without a leader because Elon Musk pushed him out
FAA chief Michael Whitaker resigned earlier this month after facing criticism from Musk.

She shared this with me privately shortly after the tour, and I'm grateful she made her thoughts public.

Pete Hegseth admitted to the Senate that he paid $50,000 (!!!) to silence a "Jane Doe" who accused him of rape.
But at his hearing last week, he said he was “falsely accused."
More questions than answers. We can't rush his vote and trust him with our national security.
