Today, Elon Musk, a trillionaire, pays the same amount into Social Security as someone making $184,500.
If we end that absurdity and lift the cap on taxable income, we can make Social Security solvent for 75 years and expand benefits by $2,400. My Social Security bill does that.
Ken Paxton’s own party impeached him.
His own staff reported him to the FBI.
Now his own defense attorney is endorsing our campaign.
Those closest to Ken Paxton know he's unfit for office.
AP News: Trump is planning to spend $60 million in taxpayer dollars on his birthday party.
Americans can't afford gas and he's spending $60 million on a birthday party for himself.
Unfuckingbelievable.
Republicans are in charge because we promised:
to Make America Healthy Again.
to start No New Wars,
to put people above corporations,
to put America above foreign countries,
to release the Epstein files,
to not spy on citizens,
to eliminate fraud,
what the hell happened?!
Candidate Trump: "I will end inflation on Day One."
President Trump today: "I love the inflation."
You know who doesn't love inflation, Mr. President? Working families struggling to afford gas, groceries and other necessities because of your disastrous actions.
The Iran War Powers Resolution that I cosponsored (opposing the war) just passed the House of Representatives.
The People’s House is sending a message: end this war.
@BasedMikeLee@JaniceWill47400 It’s bread and circuses,
and decadence for the ruling class paid for by the working class and foreign lobbies.
If history teaches us anything, we know what comes next.
Ken Paxton is throwing everything he has at us.
He’s called me a radical leftist. He’s called me a fake Christian. He’s even called me a vegan!
I’m an 8th generation Texan — I've been eating BBQ since before Ken Paxton’s first indictment.
400,000 dead Americans at Arlington.
Fuckface somehow heard: “This would be a good moment to joke about how few dead soldiers were named Donald.”
This utterly vile, self-obsessed asshole turns a sombre event into a fucking stand-up routine about himself.
When the swamp and Epstein class couldn’t buy my vote, they bought the most expensive congressional seat ever.
I joined @MeetThePress this morning to talk about putting people & principles over parties.
I’m optimistic because the younger generation understands what’s going on.
@JumboElliott76@DougRG88 That's being pretty generous. They're supposedly elected to serve the people of their districts who make far less on averave. 5x pay raise is a bit much even considering everything else proposed.
“WE NEED TO LET THEM DO INSIDER TRADING TO FEED THEIR FAMILIES.”
Congress makes $174k.
Median income is about $63k.
Minimum wage is $7.25.
If your “public servant” needs Wall Street crime to survive, that’s not a government, that’s a cartel.
Welcome to neo-feudalism. You’re the peasant, they’re the aristocracy.
James Talarico: “The only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they’re on a mission from God. Our faith in Jesus should lead us away from theocracy, tyranny, Christian nationalism and toward a multi-racial, multi-cultural democracy”
I've never seen a more complete reversal of rhetoric about a country and its leader than trump demonstrated with Xi and China.
Buying US farmland?
We love it now.
Import 500,000 students?
The more the merrier!
It's the Art of the Kneel.
While everyone's watching Hormuz, the Epstein files are being buried. The law says release them. Trump is fighting it. Massie may lose his seat Tuesday for pushing it. And now a $1.7B slush fund for Jan 6 defendants? Don't go quiet. (link in reply)
