Musk's "efficiency" project is a bigger question. Is Congress going to allow one of the largest govt contractors to head a new department? Will it sit outside or above public agencies? As we learned in Russia, privatization is often little more than creating unaccountable power.
So the scumbag who pleaded the 5th 75 times, who was responsible for the largest Medicare fraud in American history will be made Senate Majority Leader and will oversee cutting Medicare and Medicaid.
This is going to be unwatchable.
Breaking: Trump has announced that he's appointing Tom Homan as his border Czar.

Social Security is similar to a loan. We loan the gov't $$ from our paycheck & for a lot of us, the loan is coming due. Now R's don't want to repay the loan.

I keep thinking about it and these are two facts that I can't get around.
1. Based on exit polling, the people who voted for Trump were massively misinformed, objectively speaking.
2. There is a massive right-wing media which disseminates this misinformation. It's not just Fox News.
3. Due to a combination of factors, the people who vote for Trump tend to silo themselves off from any contradictory information.
I don't know how we get around this problem, but blaming it on "Democratic messaging" is just silly. Messaging doesn't matter if the people who are voting never hear that message, and the Democrats can't force them to hear it.
If Republicans win the House, the'll be no stopping their fascist, cruel and barbaric agenda. Here's what happened to Poland in a similar situation. Y'all need to listen to this gentleman. 😳👇
A distraught friend yesterday boiled it down perfectly:
"If we won, we'd be celebrating how many of them would get healthcare, education, or student loans canceled. But they won, and they're celebrating how many of us they get to kill."
Tells the whole story, doesn't it?
If you are turned away at the polls, your response [verbatim] should be as follows: “Give me a provisional ballot with a receipt, as required by law.”
Pass it on.
