When Trump...
-Holds a private dinner for his crypto coin buyersΒ
-Promotes Teslas on the White House driveway on behalf of a multibillionaire who spent $277M backing him
-Uses state visits to advance his hotel business
It's corruption, plain and simple.

@elonmusk: Consistent with President @realDonaldTrump's instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week.
Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.
This is the ultimate dick boss move from Musk - except he isnβt even the boss, heβs just a dick.

Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency.
It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

There is zero chance we are going to let Senate Republicans pass the most pro-billionaire and anti-middle-class budget we have EVER seen the easy way.
