As a child, I was vaccinated which made me miss out on a lot of things in life.
Like, polio, measles, and rubella.

The money from the overpriced ornaments doesn’t go to charity. I went through her entire website. The profits go back to her.

Just to be super clear, those millions and millions of $ for Trump were bribes, not donations.

If your income was $274M per year, you’d make more than 99.9% of Americans.
Elon Musk spent that buying the 2024 elections for Republicans.
In the time it takes you to read this, he’ll make another $289,350 — which is more than 99% of Americans make per year.
Tax the oligarchs

The IRS has used restored funding to crack down on rich tax cheats, upgrade customer service, and start a free file service.
Billionaires, special interests, and their paid politicians have been chipping away at that funding since.
Congress needs to step up and fund the IRS.

BREAKING: Trump just appointed a new IRS Commissioner.
The problem?
The current IRS Commissioner was confirmed to serve through 2027—and has overseen $1 BILLION recovered from wealthy tax cheats, improved customer service, and started a free, online filing service.

If you ever look into Twitter /X you'll see that this morning the X Man is demanding that ACLU be defunded.
All of his following cattle are clucking their tongues in agreement.
ACLU has no government funding.
Gives you an idea of Elon's extraordinary ignorance.
As for his cows,moooo.

Before the election: Extreme MAGA Republicans lied to America about their connection to Project 2025.
After the election: The people behind Project 2025 are given high level positions in the Trump administration.
How dare you lecture the American people about anything.

Amazon and Walmart are the largest US companies by both revenue and number of employees.
But 87% of jobs for Amazon and 91% for Walmart pay less than $20/hr.
Meanwhile, Jeff Bezos is worth $229B and the Walton family is worth roughly $270B.
See the problem here?

Any changes to Social Security must happen through regular Congressional order, in the light of day.
We have paid in through our entire working lives– It’s our money.

Elon Musk spent $200 million to elect Donald Trump.
His net worth has jumped $70 billion since Election Day.
That’s a 34,900% ROI.
Your reminder that billionaires buy elections to make money, not because they care about politics or the working class.

When an industry can legally spend $180 million to buy 276 seats in Congress, we no longer have elections, we have auctions.
