There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.

Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

A tweet from Rep. Jason Crow. The tweet includes a photo of Rep. Jason Crow and text that reads: "Americans are going to die because of Trump's cuts to the National Institutes of Health research. There's a way to reform government and improve efficiency - but taking a hammer to life-saving Alzheimers, ALS, and cancer research is not it."
Below the tweet, there is an image of a news broadcast from MSNBC titled "PROBATIONARY PURGE" with the following text: "NOTICE GIVEN AT: Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Education, U.S. Forest Service, Energy Department, Office of Personnel Management, Small Business Administration, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, General Services Administration, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Nuclear Security Administration." The broadcast is part of "TRUMP'S FIRST 100 DAYS" with the headline "FIRINGS OF FEDERAL WORKERS EXPANDS TO MORE AGENCIES."

The sledgehammer approach is madness. America is not a company you can strip for parts.

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes.

The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds.

This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Keep hearing people say “2020s America is becoming 1930s Germany.”

Ok but 1930s Hitler sent his lawyers to USA to learn how U.S. Govt enforced Jim Crow laws & reported back that the American system is too extreme—even for Nazis.😳

Fact is 2020s USA is becoming 1920s USA—It’s what MAGA always meant.
