My question is if it comes out that musk has manipulated the election for Trump and we know he did what can be done about it?

Jeffries: "If Donald Trump can find $20b to bail out his right-wing dictator friend in Argentina, it's extraordinary to me that Republicans are unwilling to even have a discussion about how we address the healthcare crisis that they've created."

They’re freaking out!!!

Trump’s cabinet secretaries falsely claim Dems are keeping the government closed because of the “No Kings” mass protests, and Mike Johnson calls it the “hate America rally.”

The truth is: we love America, but we hate tyrants. That’s why we’re doing this.

See you Saturday.

Bailing out Bessent’s billionaire friends on Wall Street from their bad investments is much more important.

She raises very valid questions like, where is Trump getting the money to pay for the ballroom? Where did the money for Argentina come from? How about the funding to pay our troops? There are a lot of questions about funding and NO CLEAR ANSWERS.

Follow the money! (On my substack)

I think we need a general strike and we need it now.

How Do We Make a General Strike Happen in the US?

Historically, a general strike represents the most powerful tool available to the working class.

Trump‘s tariff threats stall global economy growth. We’re also feeling it here with the purchases of cars homes, and even food, electricity, and healthcare have gone up.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

Right? We cannot negotiate to restore health care subsidies, but we can bail out financier friends of Trump who invested in Argentina. On top of their tax cuts. This GOP has no shame. I called my rep about this this morning, but my list is now up to 7 items. JFC.

So we bailed out Argentina so millionaires don’t lose their investments. I guess this is putting the millionaires before the American people.

"They know that in a functioning one-person-one-vote democracy, they could never pass the unpopular self-enriching policies they want. So they know they must focus on preserving and expanding the precedents that permit them to buy American democracy."

At a time when the Trump Administration is raising electricity costs, we need a Governor who will stand up for Virginians who are seeing their bills go up — unlike Winsome Earle-Sears.

As Governor, I’ll make it a priority to lower Virginians’ energy bills.

I was thinking the same thing as far as getting the military involved, but they have to deal with ice agents. I’m afraid blood would be shed.

When will the GOP and the Supreme Court say enough is enough and hold Trump accountable?

Buried inside the Big Beautiful Bill is a time bomb...one that detonates the balance of power. You weren’t supposed to read this clause. That’s why I did.

A single section hidden deep in the bill quietly neuters the courts. It’s that serious.🔥👇
