@BarackObama @MichelleObama @ObamaFoundation Are you going to pay the contractors and subcontractors that are owed money? Inquiring minds want to know.

Chicago, it’s good to be home!
Michelle and I built the Obama Presidential Center to be a place where people of all ages can learn, play, and work – and we can't wait to welcome you all later this week!

@SethDillon Just like they stated that their nuclear program was only for peaceful purposes.
English
This time they really mean it, though.

JUST IN: Trump announces Iran has agreed to never have a nuclear weapon.

@BarbMcQuade Did you comment that it was obscene when Joe Biden had the topless trans at the White House?

@yogeshtwet World War 2 ended with one side unconditionally surrendering to the other side. That was the negotiation. Surrender or suffer. Let’s not sugar coat it. I for one am sick of winning the wars and losing the peace.

.@SECWAR "The entirety of the might of the U.S. WAR DEPARTMENT is prepared to ensure Iran NEVER HAS A NUCLEAR WEAPON."

@marklevinshow Trump is letting us down. We should not sign any deal with the mullahs in Iran. They have no intention of following the terms. We need to complete the mission.

@RichardGrenell This has got to be a parody account. Read his other posts.

@RepSaraJacobs The top 1% pay over 38% of income taxes. The top 10% pay over 70% of income taxes. The bottom 50% pay only 3% of income taxes. We are already taxing the rich. Stop with the wealth envy.

It’s beyond sickening that Elon Musk – the world’s first trillionaire – pays a lower effective tax rate than truck drivers, firefighters, or nurses.
It’s not complicated – we need to actually TAX THE RICH.

@BillWiIdin You have to admit that it is a great scheme on the part of the restaurants.

The mandatory 20% tipping culture in America has gotten completely out of hand and needs to stop. Why am I being asked to tip 25% at a self-service kiosk when I picked up my own food?
You flipped the screen around to show me a question, you didn't cook or serve the meal. Employers need to pay their staff a living wage instead of guilting customers into paying it for them.
I am officially done tipping for things where I am standing up to order.

@ChefGruel Video of their faces. Will the police actually follow up and arrest these criminals?

How many of these people got paid to shovel snow last winter?

🚨 BREAKING: Rioters are now COMPLETELY DESTROYING SCHOOL BUSES in Times Square One of the drivers had a panic attack Police are TOTALLY overwhelmed These people are NOT intimidated, as they know they VASTLY outnumber cops

But taxing wealth so normal people can afford to see a doctor and not go bankrupt over inhalers is radical left. OK
Financial Times@FT
SpaceX's 11% share price boost has made Elon Musk the world's first trillionaire, controlling two of the world's largest companies. ft.trib.al/wHPQ9gw

Every American should be taxed at the same percentage.
This is the American way.

@RoKhanna Explain how government spending has made Americans prosperous. What are the people supposed to do with their health and education? Work so that the government can take it from them?
English
This the basic difference.
Republicans believe that that if you let the wealthy spend capital it will make Americans prosperous.
Democrats believe that the federal government investing in the healthcare & education of our people will make America prosperous & productive.
Don Wilson@drwconvexity
@RoKhanna I am highly confident society will derive greater benefit if that capital is in Elon’s hands than in the hands of the government.

@RoKhanna You are free to give as much of your $232,000,000 to the government as you wish.

@RoKhanna @BernieSanders So says the congressman worth $232,000,000.
English
Musk is worth more than South Africa’s GDP. @BernieSanders and I proposed a 5% tax on people like him.
In one year, it could fund:
- free public college & trade school
-$10/day childcare
- Special-needs education nationwide
Wealth inequality is the moral failure of our time.
Gabriel Zucman@gabriel_zucman
Those who celebrate @elonmusk's $1 trillion fortune need to be reminded of a simple and vital truth: That there is a fundamental tension between extreme wealth and the very possibility of democracy.
English
@RoKhanna @BernieSanders It is not your money. End of story. You did not create it, you did not earn it, you did not do anything.

@EYakoby This is why we should not be seeking a “great deal” with Iran. Any deal should include the mullahs leaving the country and being prosecuted for this massacre.
English
This is what the Islamic Republic did to some 42,000 Iranians just four months ago.
