It's like a science experiment for people who don't believe in science

[Norman Ornstein @NormOrnstein]

As I recall, the JCPOA did not give Iran $24 billion, control of the Strait of Hormuz, and the promise of a $300 billion reconstruction package. Nor did it cost American lives and treasure, deplete our armaments and shred our relationship with many allies in the Arab world.

[Melanie D'Arrigo @DarrigoMelanie]

To recap:
Trump started a war.
Couldn’t win the war.
And now Iran gets $300 billion to stop the war, while we all pay more for gas and everything else.

This is Trump’s “Art of the Deal.”

Being the living embodiment of quite literally everything "the founders" warned against on the nation's semiquincentennial ... a bit on the nose

The reason politicians hate Zohran Mamdani is that he's making them look terrible just by literally doing his job... thus showing that they're not.

States have the right to say no to the Federal Government without losing the right to vote. The Post Offices decision to stop delivering mail in ballots in states that do not give all our voting information to the federal government will be overturned. The fact that they are trying to do it is tyranny.

Elizabeth Warren’s proposed 3% tax on people with over $100M in wealth would generate $30B in revenue each year on Elon Musk’s fortune alone. That’s about how much the US spends each year on affordable housing subsidies.

Tax. The. Rich.

Company greed is the reason why

[Liam Nissan™ @theliamnissan]

Between Tesla and SpaceX Elon got 38,000 million dollars in government subsidies on his way to becoming the world's first trillionaire, or about $120 for every man, woman, and child in the USA. That makes Sissy SpaceX the biggest immigrant welfare queen in American history

[Johanna Nyman @JohannaNyman5]

It is frankly embarrassing that a sitting U.S. Vice President is unaware of one of the most elementary facts of World War II. Nazi Germany did not negotiate an end to World War II. The war in Europe ended with Germany’s unconditional surrender after total military defeat and the collapse of the regime in May 1945.

[Lyn🦋 @_ayandamay]

I want a refund on every minute I spent in 8th grade learning that monopolies are illegal and that our government would protect us from greedy men....

[Kush @kushika_twt]

The first trillionaire being announced before the end of child poverty is not a success story.

It’s a moral failure.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

How is it possible that the Spurs are ahead by 29 points earlier in game 4, but then lose later in game 4 to the Knicks?

Just statistically impossible. Baskets at the beginning should be worth more than baskets at the end right? Game must have been rigged.

History will remember the millions of people who died around the world from preventable deaths because of Musk's DOGE cuts.

History will remember Musk's enabling, amplifying, and funding of 21st-century fascism across the West.

[Qasim Rashid, Esq. @QasimRashid]

If you can’t tax billionaires and trillionaire because “its unrealized gains until they cash out,” then stop letting them leverage that wealth for loans, as collateral, or as equity.

If it’s not real enough to tax, it shouldn’t be real enough to leverage.

This is why we say the system is rigged in favor of the super wealthy. Abolish billionaires, tax them out of existence, protect working people.

[Akilah Hughes @AkilahObviously]

The idea that Elon Musk worked harder than every person alive and who has ever lived is a very stupid and immature fairytale. Wake up. He’s robbing us.

[×͜× @RuggedRyan_]

If Elon Musk lost 99% of his wealth he would STILL have $10 BILLION! Tax the fucking rich. We need a wealth tax. Nobody should be a billionaire, let alone a fucking trillionaire when you got people that can’t afford to eat, can’t afford rent, homelessness, etc.
