$96 million for 120 days of work. $15/hour for baristas who can’t get enough hours to qualify for benefits. That’s not “the best job in retail.” That’s greed.

The shutdown has gone on so long, we've run out of clever ways to say it, so we'll just say it: Federal workers have been locked out or working with no pay for over a month. The Trump admin and their allies in Congress must fund the government and fix the health care crisis NOW.

Elon Musk spent his year inflicting as much pain as possible on America’s federal workers and breaking the essential services that working people rely on.
And now he’s being handed a trillion-dollar paycheck on a silver platter.
Disgusting.
