For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26.

Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency.

It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

Why would a little boy say, “Shut the fuck up” if he wanted someone to be quiet? Was there someone in his life who maybe repeatedly said that to him? Also, where would he get the idea that Trump *isn’t* the President? Did someone also say that repeatedly to him?

This tweet is setting up the Trump administration to thrust the U.S. into a constitutional crisis and obliterate our system of checks and balances as we know it.

So............ I have to teach about the U.S. Constitution today to an introductory level class.

How on earth am I supposed to pretend everything is just working normally?

Answer: I'm not going to pretend. I'm telling it like it is.

I voted to reject RFK Jr.'s nomination to HHS.

I cannot in good conscience support someone who denies and will dilute our public health protections, sow distrust in science, and oversee massive cuts to health care programs for vulnerable Americans.

I just voted NO on RFK Jr. to lead HHS. None of his empty promises could undo the harm his past statements have already had on people’s health. He’s a flip-flopper, a conspiracy peddler, and a danger to our country.

He’s driven by self-interest, not by protecting Americans.

DOGE is a trojan horse for Elon to gut labor, consumer, and environmental protections.

If he actually wanted to cut waste, he'd look at the massive tax loopholes, government contracts, and subsidies that benefit the wealthy and large corporations.

Proof Trump CAVED:

To all the MAGA who is saying Trump “got what he wanted” because Mexico is sending 10,000 troops to the border:

Biden achieved the same deployment in 2021 without any threats. 👇

It’s so weird the way Phony Stark has it out for USAID, I wonder why. Could it be THIS!?!?

In the 1980s, USAID was responsible for financing projects that apartheid victims viewed as critical in promoting social, political, and economic change through peaceful means.

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive):

1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment*

2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything

3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can

4. Citizens march en mass

Elon Musk literally bought himself the fucking presidency of the United States of America.

I, like many are experiencing higher levels of extreme anxiety recently. Physical symptoms, the mental pain, detachment and in doing so we are losing ourselves.
Today, find some time for meditation, to enjoy music you love, turn off the screen and breathe. Hug people you love, reach out to friends.

Trump to turn the Guantanamo bay torture camp into a full fledged concentration camp.

He plans to send at least 30,000 people, while they'll allege to only be sending "migrants", ICE has also been randomly detaining US citizens during its ethnic cleansing operations.
