Now, why would the world’s richest man want to fire 6700 IRS agents? It is estimated the richest 1% already underpay their taxes by $205 BILLION a year. Follow the money. It’s all about new ways to accumulate wealth. Ruin the economy so the rich can buy up properties and stock on the cheap.

“On Tuesday, Democrats flipped Trump-voting seat in the Pennsylvania state Senate. James Malone openly campaigned against Trump and Musk.
This went +15 for Trump in 2024. The last time a Democrat won this seat was in 1889. Other state and federal districts are showing the same result.”

A better day for the April 5 rally against Trump and the rise of American fascism would be April 1. How long did it take you figure out why?

Trump will continue to do what he’s doing until YOU PUSH BACK. Republican lawmakers are telling you they’re more loyal to Trump and their jobs than you. What are you prepared to do? Time to act is NOW. This is a time for Republicans, Democrats, and Independents to come together for our country.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

A memo has just leaked revealing that the Trump administration is planning to sabotage the Social Security Administration.

Their plan would gut the agency’s claims process, potentially preventing millions of Americans from getting their earned benefits.

Ready for some good news? It appears that most Americans passed their high school Economics class. According to CNN, 61% of Americans do NOT approve of Trump’s handling of tariffs. If you know tariffs are import taxes, you deserve a cookie. Contact Elon for your cookie. Thats efficiency for ya.

So here’s my take…you and I have Social Security, 401ks, or pensions. Those are all dependent on the stock market. Trump and Musk don’t care if the stock market tanks. They have 4 years to destroy our income so the oligarchs can take more wealth from us in addition to their new 4.5 trillion tax cut.

Firing 7000 IRS agents will make it even easier for the rich to get away with skirting what they owe.

But it's also a gift to the multi-billion dollar tax prep industry.

Fewer IRS agents to help you file your taxes means more money in the pockets of companies like TurboTax.

Not content with purchasing the presidency, Elon Musk now wants to buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court as well.

His PAC just pumped $1M into supporting anti-choice right-wing extremist Brad Schimel.

Wisconsin — don't become Musk's latest acquisition! Vote @crawfordforwi.bsky.social.
