We are going to have to end subsidies for Elon Musk’s companies and probably nationalize SpaceX.
We’re going to have to change the tax code as a safeguard for democracy, and impose punishingly high taxes on Musk and other billionaires.
I’m talking Roosevelt levels. Capital gains counted as income.

Rep. Ansari: Donald Trump is dealing with not only dementia, as I see it, but a lot of delusion. He has never had a plan for health care. My constituents are terrified as they're starting to receive their notifications about their health care premiums doubling, tripling, or worse. It's heartbreaking

So when ICE confiscates someone's phone for an illegal search, they also can get millions from the tax payer, too?
Treasonous grifters think they are above reproach, but their greedy conspiring shows they still think they are above the law.
