@WhiteHouse Is there any GOP Congresspersons or Senators ready to show an ounce of courage yet?
The last time our ancestors were ruled by a tyrant king there was a revolution.
Which side are you on?

Elon Musk and Trump want to shut down USAID. Why? They must cut government programs so that they can afford to extend Trump's massive tax cuts to Billionaires and Corporations. Conflict of interest much?

@TheRichFromCali Yes, but his removal to happen now!

[Ripple 🌊 @dharmadude]

Musk has no legal authority to have access to the Treasury. But, he was appointed by a convicted criminal, Donald Trump, so no one should be surprised.

[Ripple 🌊 @dharmadude]

@TheOnlyEsta Yes!

Kamala is young. Trump is old.
Trump is an idiot. Kamala is brilliant.
Kamala is a skilled prosecutor. Donald Trump is convicted felon.
Kamala will rip Trump a new ... You get the message.

If you were applying for a security clearance right now and the FBI found that two weeks from today you need to put up cash and collateral to secure almost a half billion dollars of a bond to pay your court judgments, do you think you would get a security clearance?

How can Trump's MAGA base be so ignorant that they can't see that their former president is an unstable, dangerous fraud?

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Fact: the majority of the people who worked for Trump now say he’s utterly unfit for office.

Never Trump.

Disgusting: Senator Ron Johnson, one of the wealthiest sitting Senators and members of Congress, believes that Social Security unfairly taxes millionaires and billionaires to support Americans in lower tax brackets.

Johnson, whose net worth is estimated at $78 million, spoke during a hearing labeled "Protecting Social Security for All: Making the Wealthy Pay Their Fair Share" and said that Social Security was no more than a "nanny state" program that exists because regular folks can't be trusted to plan for their own retirement.

Most Americans have been contributing to Social Security for as long as they have been part of the work force, and the agreement is that when they are ready to retire, those funds will be available to them to help them survive. Concerns about the solvency of the program have caused people to question whether the wealthy are paying their fair share.

Johnson, the multi-millionaire Senator who has also referred to Social Security as a Ponzi scheme, said that that Social Security was not meant to be a "general welfare system," and asked what percent of billionaires wages should be taxable.

Amy Hanauer, Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy executive director, replied "You know, we had 400 billionaires who paid less than an 8% tax rate, so more than that."

Do you agree that millionaires and billionaires should contribute more to the society that helped them amass their wealth, or do you think they are entitled to be as stingy as they want to be?

@bpolitics No doubt Trump wants to delay his trial date past the 2024 election. Why? Because than he can pardon himself.

[Bloomberg Politics @bpolitics]

Special Counsel Jack Smith opposes delaying Donald Trump’s trial date in the classified documents prosecution past this year, let alone after the 2024 election https://t.co/JWANn2kmS8

Former NSA and CIA director General Michael Hayden:

“Former President Trump makes our country less safe…I’ve never seen anything like this before.

Trump must face consequences for his actions.”

Moskowitz: The American people need to know whether the indicted foreign agent, the illegal arms salesman… that’s who they’re working with, we need to know if they have jeopardized homeland security in their search to help Donald Trump

Holy sh*t.

Everyone needs to watch this master performance by @tedlieu during his questioning of FBI Director Christopher Wray.

[Rep. Ted Lieu @RepTedLieu]

It is not the fault of the FBI that Donald Trump surrounded himself with criminals.
