Interesting how Republicans didn’t stage protests against Biden’s policies—except for the time they were misled into believing the election was stolen, leading to January 6. If things under Biden were truly unbearable, wouldn’t we have seen more protests?

On December 15th at 415am, Elon Musk began firing off a barrage of social media posts opposing pharmacy benefit manager reform. All of a sudden, something that had almost unanimous support fell apart. We had nearly 435 members on board with it—he tweets, and it kills drug pricing reform that would save people money on their insulin, asthma inhalers, and everything they need.

The problem here isn’t a substance issue or a process issue—it’s an oligarchy issue, a power issue. And this room is where the power of the people resides. Everyone here was elected to be accountable to the people—not to be governed by tweets, but to be governed by their duly elected representatives.
So we can get this done; there are more of us than there are of him.
