Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty.

Trump’s Attempts to Muzzle the Press Look Familiar
Much of what the U.S. president has done to curb independent media echoes the Hungarian autocrat Viktor Orbán’s playbook.

The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979. 

Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth. 

Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

Today, we have more income and wealth inequality than ever before.

But the greed of the oligarchs never stops. 

Now, in order to get huge tax breaks, they want to cut back on Social Security, Medicaid and veterans programs.

Together we can stop them. We must stop them.

TRUMP & corporate fascist lying crony Howard Lutnick are attempting to END accounting of USA GDP/US Economy - THAT WAY, they can do like their hero Putin - just make up whatever they want about the economy; thus to manipulate low-info MAGA/Fox cult sheep into compliance, like Putin does in Russia.

10 Senate Democrats caved on Friday by voting to give Trump more power to dismantle the federal government.

These senators need to keep hearing from their constituents about this betrayal: indivisible.org/resource/tel...

Total cowards. Shameful.
Former American Lawyer editor-in-chief: “I am surprised and disappointed that the leaders of the largest law firms – the Am Law 100 – have not individually or collectively denounced” Trump’s executive order punishing law firm Perkins Coie.

Working people now live 7 YEARS LESS on average than the rich.

But by all means, give the billionaires more tax breaks and kick the rest of us off our healthcare to do it.

Three very red districts will have to vote for new reps. Two in Florida, one in New York State (if Elise ever resigns)

If you live in these districts, you need to vote blue. SS, Medicare are both in jeopardy. All voters need to get this soon.

DOGE signed an agreement with Louis DeJoy to slash 10,000 jobs from the already-understaffed USPS.

The USPS is the nation’s lifeline, ensuring delivery to every corner of the country.

We cannot allow it to be dismantled, sold off, and handed over to billionaires for profit.

STRESS KILLS.

60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, struggling every day to keep their families going.  

The result: working class people die 7 years earlier than the rich.

We need an economy that works for all, not just the few.
