An X user asks Elon Musk why they’re seeing tweets from left-wing lawmakers.

But I thought the tariff was his income from foreign countries? Does this mean he made the prices more expensive and we had to pay the difference?

Dumbest timeline the GOP is got their heads so far up their own ass they can’t see they have the ability to restrict you know guns in the first place. But let’s go with your costumes from 2024 hurt 2025 feelings, so you should be fired or killed.
Math teachers at Cienega High School in Arizona are facing death threats and calls that they be fired after a Turning Point USA employee falsely accused them of wearing Halloween costumes mocking the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
Arizona teachers' costumes weren't about Charlie Kirk. They're facing death threats anyway

Literally there is nothing this administration and president has done without complete disregard for legal impediments, but sure feeding poor kids let’s figure that one out before acting
Mike Johnson lies shamelessly: "The president is desperate for SNAP benefits to flow to the American citizens who desperately rely on it ... the SNAP situation has legal impediments."

What a wonderful world it could be
Johnson: "If they had no filibuster, they would pack the SCOTUS. You'd go from 9 to 17 or however many liberals they could pack. You would make DC & Puerto Rico into states, which would give 4 additional Democrat senators & make us a permanent minority. You'd see massive restrictions of 2A rights"

Trump claims that ICE agents are in constant danger. The data tells an entirely different story.
According to stats from the agency's website, the deadliest threat to ICE agents is not immigrants, but COVID-19.

How dangerous is it really to work for ICE?
According to ICE’s own data, none of its officers have been killed by an immigrant in the agency’s history.

All of the pilfering, vandalism, and outright death caused by DOGE cuts, and all of the thefts from the future by illegally stopping research grants, didn't save a penny, Trump spent the money and more on corruption and incompetent ICE goons.
Total federal spending is up +7% in 2025 over 2024 year-to-date to Oct 20.
The story that the fed govt is tightening its belt is contradicted by its own real-time expenditure data. Admin spectacularly hammering some things but raising spending elsewhere.
Was -7% just after Inauguration Day.
