I taught a US citizenship class to South Sudanese refugees in Nebraska, 2006-2007. Fleeing civil war, they worked arduous jobs at a meat packing plant. Many had no literacy in any language.

But they studied hard for a citizenship exam which many native-born Americans would not be able to pass.

Facebook is Tesla, Amazon is Tesla, Whole Foods is Tesla, every rich bastard who supported this. They all need to lose. They bowed down to a vulgar, hateful, vicious tyrant who has destroyed America's standing in the world. Forever. They have shown any fat cat can buy their loyalty and subservience

Two lawyers, one Yale educated, one Harvard educated; one the VP, one a senator, suggesting that decisions made by courts aren’t legitimate if they don’t like the outcome. This is dangerous territory.

Heard through the grapevine that EM visited NASA HQ today, and employees were warned to hide their trash cans because he gets upset when he sees full trash cans. So that's where we are... risk of losing agency funding because of trash cans.

Another think about elons companies is that the reason why they got the tax breaks in Texas is because the promised jobs to local high school students. They had a program that lasted about 3 years that was ment to hire locals but then was revoked many of the schools in the area are title 1 too

As a local and native of Bastrop county Elon and his space goons have now decided to make his company larger in our area . As a local I see this as terrible for many reasons Bastrop does not have the ability to secure the area in a national threat nor it has the public safety that is needed

I can tell you sincerely, that the role of a US senator at a tragic crime scene is to comfort, to calm and NOT to attack the press in campaign mode, scare folks with a wink and a nod, hinting at what you know,(which you probably don’t know). You also don’t push aside the FBI.
