Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Last night, I wrote in my newsletter, Civil Discourse, about Trump's new coup. I base my analysis on the facts and the law, not hyperbole. We are at a serious tipping point. I hope you'll subscribe if you feel the same way, or if you just want to learn more. joycevance.substack.com

I think this is our future unless someone stops him. Musk’s plan for X has been for it to replace the entire banking system. His keen interest in seizing control of Treasury payments (and its tech) may forebode an intention to have such payments go through X www.theverge.com/2023/10/26/2...

this is the simplest way I have found to call senators and representatives. Give your info, Indivisible calls you and connects you to your representative by phone (is best), from there you read from a script or craft your own. Act. You will feel better.

To the people I know who voted for him,

You know how I feel about him.

There’s nothing I could say about him that you don’t already know.

But as this next chapter of our nation begins, I just want you to know:

I am going to hold you responsible.
