Elon Musk is now worth $845 billion.

Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.

Meanwhile, nearly a quarter of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and household debt has risen to a record high.

See the problem here?

"The spirit of liberty requires moral courage among the people who are elected to Congress... but it also requires all of us It requires us to speak out without fear It requires us to tell others unpleasant truths that they do not want to hear."

No.

Failing to apologise means your country IS immoral.

This isn’t about optics.

β€œI was hungry and you…”

…spent a billion dollars on lobster tail, king crab, and ice cream machines for yourselves, and millions on bombs, all while cutting food assistance for me and millions of others.

β€œβ€¦whatever you do for the least of these, you do unto me.” -Jesus

Do you support Rep. Massie reading Epstein client list publicly?

Stop the Epstein war, prosecute the Epstein oligarchs.

America Still Has a Mission in the World America’s greatest influence has never been domination. It has been demonstration.

After WWII we could have gone home and left the world to burn.

Instead America rebuilt Europe, defended trade routes, and helped inspire the fall of the Iron Curtain.

Because America has always had a mission.

One we're dangerously close to forgetting.

Trump says he won’t sign any other bills until the SAVE Act is passed, which requires voters to show proof of citizenship with expensive documents like passports.

Reminder: noncitizen voting is already illegal and incredibly rare. This is about voter suppression, plain and simple.

How much more do we need to know about Donald Trump and his motivations? Putin gives Iran intelligence about the U. S. positions to bomb. Trump does nothing. Trump stopped all assistance to Ukraine. Now he’s going to lift sanctions on Putins/Russian oil. Putin likely has nefarious shit on Trump ..?

If your nation harms the very people Jesus called us to serve, namely the poor, the hungry, the sick, the immigrant, the disenfranchised, the marginalized, and oppressed, all while calling your nation β€œChristian,” you are embodying the exact kind of religious hypocrisy Jesus raged against.

β€œOur government is treating the suffering of the Iranian people as a backdrop for our own entertainment … But, in the end, we lose our humanity when we are thrilled by the destructive power of our military. … The longer we remain blind to the terrible consequences of war ...

What Does Russia Have on Trump? Americans Deserve an Answer As Russia reportedly shares intelligence with Iran that could endanger American forces, the White House chooses to ease pressure on Moscow instead of confronting it.

Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.

Russia helps Iran track American forces.

And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil.

Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest:

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.

This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.

They cut Meals on Wheels for seniors, doctors for the VA, and food for American children - but send billions of taxpayer dollars to the Middle East for an unnecessary war of choice.

Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, they’re under attack.

Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections.

Nah. The real debate in America is between people who know Trump is evil and say so, and the people (like Laura!) who know Trump is corrupt and evil and lie about it for personal profit.

Chris Murphy: "It won't be the billionaire children of Donald Trump and his buddies that die. It's going to be the children of middle class and poor families all across this country that are gonna die for a war of choice, a war of vanity, an illegal war."
