He literally tweeted: This is a great time to BUY!
Just hours ago. And then he paused tariffs.

He’s literally committing crimes in front of the entire world. 😳

Trump is using the White House to make a commercial for the richest man in the world while Americans’ 401ks are plummeting.

Our healthcare system is an extortion racket where thugs hold our lives hostage for profit

'Trump's Lawyer' Refuses to Sign Arrest Warrant for GOP Lawmaker Accused of Assault DC federal attorney Ed Martin – a Stop the Steal organizer – has in one month protected two alleged criminal Republicans, fired Jan. 6 prosecutors, and targeted government critics.

Sexual abuser Donald Trump is welcoming the alleged sex trafficking rapist Tate brothers to the US, while Trump's US attorney for DC appears to be protecting a Republican congressman who allegedly assaulted a woman he'd possibly been having an affair with.

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid.

So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

21 federal technology staffers resign rather than help Musk and DOGE slash size of government Twenty-one civil service employees have resigned from billionaire Trump adviser Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, saying they're refusing to use their technical expertise to β€œdismantle ...

Wow. 20+ DOGE staffers just resigned en masse, saying they refuse to use their expertise to β€œdismantle critical public services.”

β€œWe swore to serve the American people... However, it has become clear that we can no longer honor those commitments.”

Medicaid covers nearly half of all children born in the country and around two-thirds of nursing home care for seniors.

The Republican Party is voting today on a budget framework with will gut Medicaid to finance more tax cuts for the top 1%.

The United States just voted against a United Nations resolution condemning Russia for invading Ukraine.

The US sided with Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, and the Grand Ayatollah of Iran.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Making sure everyone understands: Afrikanersβ€”Elon Musk’s peopleβ€”built, enforced, and thrived under the apartheid system they created. Not just β€œwhite-ruled segregation”—it was systemic racial oppression to keep the white minority in power.

They don’t deserve refugee statusβ€”they were the oppressors!

The Trump-Vance State Department just approved $7.41 billion in weapons sales to Israel.

$6.75 billion in bombs & weapons guidance kits
$660 million in Hellfire Missiles

"This sale will increase interoperability with U.S. forces," the administration writes.

A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.

A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Republicans ran into the room to SHEILD Elon Musk from having to come and speak to Congress. They want their billionaire takeover done behind closed doors. The people deserve transparency. No one elected Elon Musk.

Had a convo recently where the other person--an educated liberal!--was shocked to learn <2% of Americans are trans, puberty blockers are temporary & reversible, and virtually no minors get gender-affirming surgeries. The right is so, so good at inflating things into boogeymen.

Musk’s Lackeys Seize Control of Social Security Check System The world’s richest man now has access to the sensitive personal information of millions of Americans.

Elon Musk has forced his way into the system that pays your Social Security checks and tax refunds.

He likely now has access to your Social Security number.

I saw a post saying that rural.gov is down.

This can’t be true. I mean, Trump really cares about rural folks, right? They overwhelmingly voted for him.

Hahaha…no. He’s going to fvck rural America just like the rest of America.
