The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.
Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.
The list goes on and on.
Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
Okay, let me get this right โ๏ธย

- Pissing off momsย
- Ripping off consumersย
- Taking away voting rightsย
- Undermining the judiciaryย ย

That is the GOP's agenda this week??? Stellar job guys. ๐

โRepublicans are not going to cut Medicaid benefits at allโ โSen. Moreno
โIโm not worried about people losing their healthcareโ โSen. Kennedy
โIโm not going to vote for Medicaid cutsโ โSen. Hawley
None of it was true
Sen. Booker just broke the record for the longest floor speech in Senate historyโa record set by Strom Thurmond trying to block the Civil Rights Act. The irony ainโt lost on us. From fighting against justice to fighting for it. This is what courage & being on the right side of history looks like!

Screenshot from EO at https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/improving-education-outcomes-by-empowering-parents-states-and-communities/ : โThe Department of Education currently manages a student loan debt portfolio of more than $1.6 trillion. This means the Federal student aid program is roughly the size of one of the Nation's largest banks, Wells Fargo. But although Wells Fargo has more than 200,000 employees, the Department of Education has fewer than 1,500 in its Office of Federal Student Aid.โ

1. Please buy Tesla stock to help poor Elon Musk.
2. Shut up and donโt complain when you donโt get your Social Security check.
@warnock.senate.gov: "If they're interested in waste, fraud, and abuse, they should start with co-president Musk's own companies, and ask why has he gotten $20 billion and more from the federal government. This is wealth-fare at its worst."

A memo has just leaked revealing that the Trump administration is planning to sabotage the Social Security Administration.
Their plan would gut the agencyโs claims process, potentially preventing millions of Americans from getting their earned benefits.

We should compare Social Security, which has never missed a payment since its inception, to Tesla's stock price.

America has a GLOBAL TRADE SURPLUS on services. Services have the highest margins and profits of our exports. That is where capital and expertise focused.
It is why we dominate in tech globally.
Netanyahuโs extremist government has halted ALL humanitarian aid into Gaza.
Starving children is a war crime.
UN leaders said: "International humanitarian law is clear: we must be allowed access to deliver vital lifesaving aid. We need to get aid in and the hostages out.โ
For 250 years, the United States has supported democracy.
Now, in the middle of a horrific war that Putin started, Trump is turning his back on Ukraine and democracy, all to the benefit of a brutal dictator in Moscow.
Elon Musk and Donald Trumpโs dismantling of USAID will lead to millions of preventable deaths.
The decision of the richest person in the world to destroy an agency that delivers life-saving aid to the poorest people on the planet is unconscionable.
New research has confirmed the Hemispherical Power Asymmetry: the cosmic microwave background has more fluctuations in one side of the universe than the other.
