Tax the rich. The problem is the billionaires and big corporations making record-breaking profits while the rest of us struggle.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

He is going to say "pinky swear you will protect our border. And buy more booze and stuff from us. "

They will say yes. Won't actually buy the stuff. And he will declare victory

i think an important thing for people outside the US to understand is that elon musk seized control of the government today and most americans don’t even realize it happened.

Btw Trump likely has zero idea what Musk is doing, nor does he care. Under the guise of fixing the government, they are hijacking it in plain sight.

So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.

Trump said 67 people died in a plane crash because not enough white people work at the FAA.

Remember, this is the guy corporate America lined up behind.

The head of the FAA, Mike Whitaker, resigned on January 20 β€” one year into his 5 year term β€” after facing relentless criticism from Musk for not approving SpaceX missions quickly enough.

The Senate confirmed him unanimously in 2023.

No acting FAA head has been appointed.

I think this is where the abbreviation VIP reaches its maximum grossness.

According to US officials speaking to the newspaper, three American soldiers are dead tonight, but none of them were very important people.

It’s a sickening thing to say when you think about it. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

Make no mistake, the Trump administration isn't doing this because they had a change of heart (they lack the anatomical prerequisite), it's because there was backlash.

This is a great question for all of congress to think about.

Hypothetically,If FEMA goes away, what happens to home owners and other insurance rates ?

Climate change looks like it will make rates so high, home insurers will want equity in your house as a way of holding down rates

Btw, imagine if Biden had attacked a conservative Christian figure in that personal and vicious way. It'd be front page news and on a loop on Fox and his own party would criticize him for it.

But it's Trump, so hey, all good. All normal. Move along, nothing to see here.

Canada and the European Commission need to suspend X operations and investigate whether or not these allegations can be corroborated, if yes, lawsuits, sanctions, and an Interpol red and silver notice are necessary against X Corp, Elon Musk, and his collaborators.
