Elon Musk said he’d cut the federal budget by $2 trillion

Quickly lowered this to $1 trillion

Now he’s down to $150 billion

And even THAT appears to be an overestimate of $92 billion

So-after firing thousands of workers and destroying government services

This clown will cut $58 billion

Dark Pence is back.

PRO TIP: It's a titanically bad idea to put someone in charge that NEVER takes responsibility for anything.

EXTRA bad idea if you pick a guy to improve your economy who went bankrupt SIX TIMES. Idiots.

When this administration inevitably loses power, I hope people remember everything Mark Zuckerberg is doing now.

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points.

And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

Schimel lost.

Between @booker.senate.gov's magnificent, soaring oratory and stamina plus
the volunteers' effort up to the last hours in Wisconsin I have renewed faith in our fellow Americans' devotion to democracy. We can do this. But it takes all of us. Remember April 5 is coming up.

Sen. Booker is still speaking and standing for the American people.

Cory Booker will break the record for longest Senate floor speech at 7:19 PM EDT. Fewer than 2 hours from now. The record is held by Strom Thurmond, who was arguing for segregation. GO CORY, GO!

Not exaggerating, look it up. We have to do an inservice every year about this. So…what the actual.

The situation is dire. Get out there! @50501movement.bsky.social @indivisible.org @5calls.org

Will this pivot hurt Americans who did all they could to keep the angry orange out of office?
Yes.

But can you blame them?
I sure as hell can’t.
