@NickKristof @elonmusk Pinning 100% responsibility for specific deaths in corrupt, aid-dependent African nations on one American advisor for cutting US taxpayer subsidies ignores local governments’ primary duties, decades of wasted aid, and basic sovereignty. Tragedy ≠ personal culpability.

@RoKhanna Ro you wonder?

[Mike Benz @MikeBenzCyber]

USAID funded Osama Bin Laden's Mujahideen, which spawned Al-Qaeda, ISIS and the Taliban. So did USAID supporters cause 4.7 million deaths in the Global War on Terror while murdering 35,000 people in terrorist attacks after causing 9/11?

[Michelle K @aum14me]

@RoKhanna You claim Elon wants you in prison while you want him under oath. The truth is the opposite. You went after Elon first with divisive, slanderous, and slanted claims that his USAID reforms would kill 4.5 million children, based on a speculative Lancet model. You pushed for subpoenas and investigations.
Elon is simply responding—threatening to sue for the defamation and calling out real waste plus your family’s trading record. You started this. Stop rewriting the timeline and playing the victim.

[Michelle K @aum14me]

@RoKhanna Elon didn’t go after you. You attacked him first with a divisive, slanderous, and slanted interpretation of a Lancet study—claiming his USAID reforms would kill 4.5 million children. You pushed for subpoenas and investigations.
Now that Elon is responding to those accusations, highlighting real waste and corruption plus your family’s massive trading gains, you’re playing the victim.
You started this. Own your words instead of rewriting the timeline.

[Michelle K @aum14me]

Ro, here’s the simple version:
You just told everyone Elon “sentenced millions of kids to death” by cutting wastey aid spending. You said he needs to be investigated and held accountable. That’s using the law and government power to go after him.
Now you post: “Let’s debate! I’m for free speech, not lawfare.”
That’s like yelling “Arrest him, teacher!” on the playground… then crying “No tattling! Let’s just talk!” when the other kid pushes back.
You can’t scream for punishment one minute and pretend you’re against fighting the next. Pick one, Ro. It makes the whole thing look fake.
(Debate the facts if you want — but stop the flip-flop.)

Add to this you continue to waste taxpayer resources and time.

[Michelle K @aum14me]

What you do Ro, here are 5 policies/positions of yours that have hurt small businesses and driven up housing costs, pushing taxpayers out not to mention making healthcare unaffordable for taxpayers:

1Wealth tax pushes (e.g. 5% on billionaires): Discourages investment and capital formation that small businesses and startups rely on. Forces asset sales and capital flight, slowing job creation.

2Big minimum wage hikes (to $17+ federal, plus CA’s high rates): Raises labor costs for restaurants, retail, and service businesses. Leads to fewer hires, automation, closures, and higher prices — especially tough for small operators.

3$10/day universal childcare + mandates: Drives up costs via subsidies without enough supply growth. Adds to taxpayer burden and family expenses in already expensive areas like Silicon Valley.

4Medicare for All & massive social spending expansions: Increases taxes, mandates, and compliance burdens on small firms. Fuels deficits/inflation that erode wages and make housing less affordable.

5Tenant protections + restrictions on housing investors (Stop Wall Street Landlords Act): Reduces rental supply and deters new construction. Combined with CA’s zoning/regs, this worsens shortages, spikes rents, and displaces middle-class homeowners & renters.
These prioritize redistribution, they raise costs, slow growth, and contribute to CA’s small business exodus and housing crisis. Results matter more than intentions.

[Michelle K @aum14me]

Ro, let’s stick to facts instead of divisive framing; maybe you and you den of California thieves should stop the fraud and abuse along with reckless policies?

Your UCLA/Lancet link overstates and misleads in these key ways:
1“Your USAID cuts did this” is false. The 14M deaths is a future projection to 2030 under worst-case assumptions — not deaths that have already happened.
2The “91 million deaths prevented” claim is a statistical association from observational data, not a proven causal count. Global child mortality fell ~60% thanks to economic growth, vaccines, sanitation, and many donors — not just USAID.
3The study presents modeled estimates with wide uncertainty bands and strong assumptions (no adaptations, no other donors stepping up, perfect past efficiency). Headlines ignore that.
4It treats every USAID dollar as perfectly effective, ignoring documented waste, high overhead, ineffective programs, and duplication that the cuts targeted.
5Personalizing complex policy (“Elon, your cuts”) as mass murder is partisan rhetoric. These were Trump admin decisions on waste and priorities, with U.S. taxpayers footing the bill.
The underlying modeling highlights real risks from abrupt aid cuts, but turning projections into “facts” for attacks isn’t honest debate. Foreign aid effectiveness deserves scrutiny, not weaponization.

Truth and context

No, AOC did not do the 30,000-book giveaway solo. It was a collaborative community event she helped initiate and promote, not a solo project she handled personally.

Her post (from today) is just reacting with laughing emojis and “this just gave me the juice for the next 30,000” to a short Fox News/Hannity clip. In the clip, Brianna Lyman asks a constituent in Astoria (her district) what AOC has done for them, and he replies that she “helped bring 30,000 books to school kids within the district.” That’s the “this” in question.0
What actually happened (facts from public records and the organizers):
•Event: “Reading Opens the World” Family Literacy & Book Fair at PS 48 in the Bronx on February 8, 2026.
•Scale: 30,000 free books distributed to students and families, plus snacks, LEGOs, etc.
•Partners and organizers:
◦American Federation of Teachers (AFT, led by Randi Weingarten).
◦United Federation of Teachers (UFT, the NYC teachers union).
◦PS 48 school leadership and NYC Public Schools.
◦Other supporters included First Book and local officials (e.g., Bronx Borough President).
•AOC’s role: About a year earlier (early 2025), she and Weingarten discussed the need to spark kids’ love of reading. Team AOC partnered for this specific Bronx event, helped promote it, and participated in distribution alongside volunteers and union members. Her office has run similar back-to-school/backpack giveaways in the past (e.g., 3,000+ backpacks in 2025), but those are also team efforts.
This was a standard union/school/community literacy festival (AFT has run similar large-scale book giveaways for years). No one — least of all AOC — has claimed she personally packed, transported, or handed out all 30,000 books by herself. The constituent’s comment (“helped bring”) accurately reflects her involvement without overstating it as a solo feat.
AOC’s post is just her hyping the positive feedback from a constituent on Fox News — classic political social-media moment. The event itself was real, well-documented by the partners, and very much a group effort.

Shady Schiff team shame on you! You are an embarrassment to the office and California. Your corruption is your legacy.

Here’s a simple top 10 reminder:

1. Schiff pushed the Trump-Russia collusion story hard for years. He said there was “evidence in plain sight.” Later investigations (Mueller + IG) found no criminal conspiracy. House censured him for misleading the public.

2. He released a memo defending the FBI’s FISA warrant on Carter Page. The DOJ Inspector General report later showed the memo had major errors and omissions. Critics say it was full of lies.

3. Accused of abusing power on the Intelligence Committee by leaking classified info to hurt Trump during Russiagate. Whistleblowers claimed he directed staff to do it.

4. In 2020, Schiff called the Hunter Biden laptop story “Russian disinformation” from the Kremlin. The laptop was later confirmed real. Critics say he helped bury a real story before the election.

5. Allegations of mortgage fraud. Trump and others claim Schiff listed his Maryland home as primary residence (while representing California) to get better loan rates. Under federal investigation.

6. Knew details of the Ukraine whistleblower complaint early, before it was official. Critics say he helped shape the first Trump impeachment around it.

7. Spent years on TV claiming strong collusion evidence while having access to classified info that didn’t fully back it up. House resolution said he “purposely deceived” Congress and the public.

8. Booted from Intelligence Committee by Republicans for alleged bias and misconduct on Russia probe. They said he abused his position.

9. Critics claim his actions divided families, wasted $30+ million on investigations, and damaged trust in government over unproven Russia claims.

10. Overall, opponents call him “Shifty Schiff” for repeatedly making serious accusations that didn’t hold up fully, harming the country for political gain.

Bernie’s post is misleading, divisive, and dishonest because it rips Bezos’ CNBC comments out of context, ignores root causes of problems like high rents, and pretends a 5% annual wealth tax on billionaires will magically deliver $12K checks, universal childcare, Medicare expansions, and $60K teacher starting pay—while Bezos stays filthy rich at “$269B after taxes.”
Here’s the actual context Bernie omitted:
In the May 20, 2026 CNBC interview with Andrew Ross Sorkin, Jeff Bezos explicitly said:
“You could double the taxes I pay and it’s not gonna help that teacher in Queens, I promise you. You can’t connect those two things, not logically.”
He wasn’t opposing all taxes or helping teachers. He was pointing out that high rents and cost-of-living issues aren’t fixed by soaking billionaires—they’re driven by government intervention: subsidizing demand (e.g., housing vouchers, tax policies) while constricting supply through zoning, permitting delays, and bans like NYC’s on short-term rentals (Airbnb). Rents stayed high in NYC after Airbnb was outlawed. Econ 101: restrict supply + subsidize demand = skyrocketing prices. Full transcript here: https://t.co/DUp7iUMD9e

Bernie’s reply dodges this entirely and pivots to class-warfare promises. That’s the dishonesty.
Why the wealth tax pitch is misleading/divisive:
•It’s an annual 5% tax on billionaires’ net worth (not a one-time levy). Bernie & Ro Khanna’s proposal claims ~$4.4T over 10 years for those goodies. But to pay it, billionaires sell assets yearly → market distortions, less investment, slower growth. Most European countries tried wealth taxes and repealed them (France, Sweden, etc.) due to capital flight, low revenue, high admin costs, and economic drag. Only a few remain with tiny rates.
•“You’d still be worth $269B after taxes” is sleight-of-hand. It implies one snapshot payment leaves him rich forever. Reality: 5% annual bite on ~$250B+ net worth = ~$12.5B/year. Over time it erodes wealth unless returns beat it consistently. (Current Bezos net worth hovers ~$220-280B depending on the day.)
•The “direct” benefits are fantasy: U.S. federal spending already exceeds $6-7T/year with huge deficits, yet we still have housing shortages, teacher pay gaps, and childcare issues. GAO estimates hundreds of billions in annual improper payments/fraud/waste (Medicaid, unemployment, etc.). Bureaucrats, unions, and admins devour funds before they reach families or classrooms. NYC public school teachers already start at ~$69K (bachelor’s) or $77K (master’s)—Bernie’s $60K national floor is already below that.
•Divisive dishonesty: Bezos/Amazon created millions of jobs, revolutionized commerce, and pays billions in taxes. Bernie (34+ years in Congress) acts like government just needs more money instead of fixing its own zoning/supply rules that actually drive up rents. Decades of studies confirm restrictive zoning (single-family-only rules, height limits, permitting hell) is the #1 culprit for unaffordable housing.
Bernie knows better—he’s been in power long enough to have fixed these supply-side issues himself. This is pure redistribution theater that distracts from real policy failures.

@BernieSanders : Let’s have that debate—with facts.
Bezos on CNBC never said ‘don’t tax me’ or ‘screw teachers.’ He said doubling his taxes won’t fix high rents or help a Queens teacher because the real culprit is government intervention: subsidizing demand + zoning/permitting that chokes housing supply. (Airbnb banned in NYC—rents still sky-high.)

Your 5% annual billionaire wealth tax? Europe tried it—most countries repealed it for capital flight & tiny revenue. It won’t magically wire $12K to families or raise teacher pay without bureaucracy eating it. NYC teachers already start ~$69K+.

We have $7T+ federal spending now with waste/fraud in the hundreds of billions. Fix zoning & supply, don’t just punish success.
You’re not solving problems—you’re dividing Americans. https://t.co/0LOSBDzcGB…

Incorrect statements in the @allenanalysis post (fact-checked against SCOTUS opinion, CBP data, court filings, and news reports from Feb–May 2026):

1“Trump illegally taxed working families for over a year” + “You paid the tax” + “Not to the families who paid $1,751 more”
Incorrect. The tariffs (duties) were paid directly to U.S. Customs and Border Protection by importers of record — the businesses that filed the entries. Consumers never paid the government a tariff; they faced higher retail prices when some (not all) costs were passed on. The $1,751 per household is an economic estimate of average price increases (from Yale/JEC analyses cited by Newsom), not a direct tax paid by families. The government is refunding the duties + interest to the ~330,000 importers who actually paid them, not to consumers.

2“Trump said he’d “fight” giving any of it back to families. His own words.” (with attached video)
Incorrect/misleading attribution. The video attached to the post is Gavin Newsom speaking at a press conference, calling for refunds to families and citing the $1,751 figure. It is not Trump speaking. Trump did criticize the refund process, called it a “travesty,” said his administration would fight refunds, and publicly encouraged companies not to file claims. But he was talking about refunds to importers (the legal payers), not a direct payout to families, and the video is not his words.

3“Newsom is right. Pay the people. $1,751 per household. Every dollar.”
Misleading framing as a legal obligation. Newsom did call for direct consumer checks citing the $1,751 estimate, but there is no court order or legal requirement for the government to issue per-household rebates to consumers. The Supreme Court ruling (and subsequent Court of International Trade orders) required refunds to the importers who paid the unlawful duties — not to end consumers. Direct consumer payments would require new congressional action or voluntary price cuts by businesses.

Accurate parts (for context):
•SCOTUS did rule 6-3 on Feb 20, 2026 that IEEPA does not authorize tariffs (unlawful under the statute and inconsistent with Congress’s taxing power).
•~$166 billion collected on >53 million shipments by ~330,000 importers is being refunded (process launched April 2026).
•Refunds go to importers/corporations, not directly to consumers.

The post correctly highlights that consumers bore higher prices but will not automatically get money back, while importers who paid the duties will. The video misattribution and direct “you paid the tax” claims are the clear factual errors.

April, 2020. Gavin Newsom gives a no bid, billion dollar contract to a Chinese electric vehicle company to manufacture and deliver face masks to California.

When speaking about the deal, Newsom would regularly try to mislead people into thinking the masks were being manufactured in America. "Through a consortia of nonprofits and a manufacturer here in California." In this video, Rachel Maddow accidentally calls him out.

The company that Newsom gave the contract to had never made any masks or PPE equipment before. BYD is a Chinese based company and the largest electric vehicle manufacturer in the world. The company is notorious for producing low quality products. Due to its reputation for faulty products, close ties to the CCP and possible ties to forced labor, the first Trump Admin barred BYD from bidding on federal contracts.

In 2023 Newsom visited BYD headquarters in China and advocated for their vehicles to be sold America. It's fair to think that Newsom and BYD have something going on behind the scenes.

Shamelessly, Newsom recently criticized Trump and Elon for ceding space in the EV market to China, even though he's been the one advocating for China to be able to sell more vehicles in America.

Gavin Newsom: “The rush to silence Black voters ahead of the 2026 election is stone cold racism. It’s Jim Crow 2.0.”
Reality check, Gavin — this is peak distortion:
You’re melting down because Republican governors (like Louisiana’s Jeff Landry) are following a recent Supreme Court ruling that says you CAN’T draw congressional districts based primarily on race. That’s not “silencing Black voters” — Black citizens can still vote exactly the same. It’s ending unconstitutional racial gerrymandering that Democrats have used for years to pack Black voters into a few safe blue districts, dilute their power elsewhere, and lock in extra seats. SCOTUS called it out. No one is stopping Black Americans from voting — they’re just not letting race be the main map-drawing tool anymore.
Meanwhile, your own California machine just passed Prop 50 to redraw maps for partisan Democrat advantage. Hypocrisy much?
And let’s talk real Democrat “afflictions” hitting Black communities under your watch:
• Your former chief of staff, Dana Williamson, just pleaded guilty yesterday to corruption and tax fraud — siphoning campaign and COVID funds through fake contracts.
• California leads the nation in fraud: billions stolen from unemployment, $30+ billion in In-Home Supportive Services riddled with scams, and $24 billion blown on homelessness with zero results.
• In Democrat-run cities like Oakland, San Francisco, and LA, Black residents face sky-high crime, failing schools, and street encampments — the exact opposite of “progress.”
Remember 2023? You openly bragged San Francisco was “cleaned up” — encampments swept, streets scrubbed — only because Xi Jinping was coming for APEC. You said it yourself: “that’s true because it’s true.” Years of ignoring the filth for Californians… but red-carpet ready for the Chinese dictator overnight.
Your China ties run deep too: As SF mayor you cozied up to Chinese officials. In 2023 you flew to China, met Xi personally, signed deals, and called California their “stable partner.” You even helped launch ChinaSF to bring in 100+ Chinese companies — with your aide Darlene Chiu-Bryant getting public praise from a CCP consul general.
So here’s the rhetorical question, Gavin:
If fair, color-blind maps following the Supreme Court are “Jim Crow 2.0” and “stone cold racism”… what do you call your party’s decades of packing Black voters into failing blue districts, while your aides commit fraud and you only clean the streets for Xi Jinping?
Your side isn’t protecting Black voters — it’s terrified they’re finally waking up and voting their interests.

Bad choice for your party that bled California dry and rips off workers and residents.

Gavin Newsom blasts Trump for taking his son to China, calling it “sick” corruption and an “economic agenda to enrich themselves.”
Meanwhile, Newsom’s own deep China ties go back decades:
•As SF Mayor, he built personal relationships with Chinese officials (including future VP Han Zheng).
•In 2023 he flew to China, met Xi Jinping personally, signed economic/climate deals, and praised California as China’s “stable & consistent partner.”
•He helped launch ChinaSF — a nonprofit that recruited 100+ Chinese companies into the state.
•His longtime aide Darlene Chiu-Bryant (who ran ChinaSF) was publicly praised by a CCP consul general for helping promote “US-Sino investment.”
And remember 2023? Newsom openly admitted San Francisco was “cleaned up” — encampments swept, streets scrubbed, businesses boarded — only because Xi Jinping was coming for APEC. He literally said: “I know folks say, ‘Oh they’re just cleaning up this place because all those fancy leaders are coming into town,’ and that’s true because it’s true.” For years he couldn’t (or wouldn’t) fix SF’s filth for Californians… but rolled out the red carpet for Xi overnight.
Recent afflictions hitting Newsom’s Democratic machine in California?
•Just yesterday (May 14, 2026), his former chief of staff Dana Williamson pleaded guilty to corruption and tax fraud — fake contracts to siphon campaign and COVID funds.
•California is ground zero for massive fraud scandals: billions stolen from unemployment (EDD), $30+ billion In-Home Supportive Services program riddled with scams, and $24 billion in homelessness spending with zero accountability. Federal prosecutors call Newsom the “king of fraud.”
So here’s the rhetorical question, Gavin: If Trump’s son in China is “disgraceful corruption,” what do you call cleaning streets for Xi while your own aides and programs bleed California dry in Democrat-linked fraud?

Context children:

Adulting matters because the person/ persons posting this content aren’t adults and probably never worked or saved…

The spin in plain English:
California’s “balanced budget” isn’t a Democratic victory — it’s literally required by law (California Constitution, Article IV, Section 12). Every governor has to submit one. Newsom’s May Revise uses $16.5 billion in one-time extra tax money from the AI/tech/stock boom (volatile and not guaranteed to last) plus pulling billions from reserves to paper over the math.

Nonpartisan Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) projections show structural deficits return right after — around $10 billion+ in 2028-29 and beyond, even with growth. Spending has exploded over $100 billion since 2020. California also carries over $1 trillion in total debt and unfunded liabilities (pensions, bonds, etc.) that this operating budget doesn’t fix.

The Trump claim refers to a specific 2025 GOP reconciliation bill (nicknamed the “Big Beautiful Betrayal” by critics). CBO scored it as adding roughly $2.4 trillion to the 10-year federal deficit (tax cuts partially offset by program changes). Federal deficits aren’t one person’s fault — Congress passes budgets, and both parties have run big ones for years. No “adulting” award for either side here.

Bottom line: Newsom is bragging about short-term bookkeeping tricks and cherry-picking to dunk on Republicans. Real fiscal health means sustainable spending, not temporary windfalls or kicking the can.

Both parties love to spend more than they have — California and D.C. included.
