Again—Billionaire philanthropy is PR. Stop falling for it. Yes, $50M is a lot of money, but had Musk simply paid his taxes at the actual 37% rate, he would’ve paid $5.18B in taxes—which is 104X his donation.
Taxation of Billionaires > Philanthropy from Billionaires
Chasten and I are beyond thankful for all the kind wishes since first sharing the news that we’re becoming parents. We are delighted to welcome Penelope Rose and Joseph August Buttigieg to our family.
For some time, Chasten and I have wanted to grow our family. We’re overjoyed to share that we’ve become parents! The process isn’t done yet and we’re thankful for the love, support, and respect for our privacy that has been offered to us. We can’t wait to share more soon.
Now that so many Trump supporters seem to suddenly care passionately about condemning sexual harassment and supporting the victims, thought I’d bump this up on their timeline.
Just took my daughter to her Kindergarten orientation & we had to show a vaccine passport for her admission. Let that sink in. The Govt is forcing kids to show vaccine passports.
Wait...wait my wife is telling me this has been going on for a century & is how we eradicated polio.
After 9/11, Americans realized we faced a threat. We now comply w/intrusive TSA screenings -taking shoes off, being patted down and having our bags rummaged in public.
We do it for our collective safety -or we don’t fly.
I see vaccines the same way.
Not about me. It’s about we.
Blue Lives Matter - except Jan. 6th
Tough on terrorists- except white nationalists
My body, my choice! - for masks & vaccines only
Cancel culture’s bad - except when I do it
Deport undocumented - except my nanny
No big govt - except banning private business requiring proof of vax
Let’s be clear: This is a deliberate attempt to undermine our democracy by making it harder to vote. That’s why passing the For the People Act is so important, and why every one of us needs to keep up the fight. Our future depends on it.
.@ChuckGrassley you despicable human being. Using this hearing to spread your bullshit on a day after 10 people including a law enforcement officer were victims of gun violence is horrible. SHAME ON YOU!!!

Ron Johnson said he did not feel unsafe during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot but might have if Black Lives Matter protesters and far-left "antifa" activists had demonstrated there https://t.co/MOMml3dQyX
