Congress is useless. This Administration is dangerous. This President is compromised. There is NO reason for Musk to have this level of access across our government. Our nation will rue the day we returned power to the GOP and re-elected this menace. #thepriceofeggs

Donald Trump and Elon Musk have made our farmers and families collateral damage in an idiotic trade war.
They're taking money out of their pockets and food out of their mouths β and for what?
I'm with the hard-working folks at Sola Gratia to hear how we can support them.

Ouch. Republican Representative Tom Barrett held a tele-town hall with his constituents in his swing district in Michigan on Monday and ran a survey asking if they support DOGE.
70% of the participants said they do not.
Most Americans, including one third of Republicans, believe that Trump's moves on the economy are "too erratic" according to new polling from Reuters/Ipsos.

Give that $75,600 billion to each of the 154 million US Tax Payers. That amounts to $490 per tax payer.
Call it the Oligarch dividend.

Not a word from Trump politicians who posted this misinformation on their websites and Facebook.
They got a lot of their base to use every foul permutation of vitriol to describe Democrats who didn't vote for cutting taxes on tips, social security and overtime.
Because there was no such bill!
Breaking: FDA's March meeting to select flu shot strains for 2025-2026 season has been canceled per email sent to committee members, a VRBPAC member told me. drug companies need about 6 months leeway to make shots in time for fall vax campaigns. #healthpolicy

You can read it yourself. No such tax cuts are in it.
Firing public servants is a Trojan Horse. Sure, everyone hates waste and inefficiency.
Consider: There were no fires in my neighborhood yesterday. Our firefighters were not actively engaged in fighting fires.
Musk: FIRE them....They aren't doing anything.
Since the Trump-Musk attack on the CFPB, every day thousands of Americans aren't getting the help they need when they're cheated by big banks or giant corporations and want their money back.
Donald Trump and Elon Musk are allowing Americans to get scammed.
It's the last week in February 2024. Local elections in Illinois are just weeks away.
Don't BOO...VOTE! Vote for candidates who provide government services that voters want.
I'm supporting Henry Fixemer for Dundee Township Trustee. He will work for the services overwhelmingly requested by voters:
*Mental Health/Substance Abuse assistance
*Nutrition Assistance
*Transportation Assistance
*Open Space
Our community faces several challenges, and I am dedicated to addressing them head-on with a comprehensive plan that includes enhancing open spaces, ensuring government transparency, supporting essential services like Ride in Kane, and securing mental health board funding.
