A wealth tax on the top .15% of the richest families would generate $6.2 trillion in revenue.
That could pay for:
Universal childcare
Millions of new homes
Slashing child poverty
Medicare for people aged 55+
Universal paid family leave
Tuition-free community college
And more.

@SarahWorkx No sure if we're supposed to feel bad for you, but my wife would say the no husband and no kids thing is why you are 1) smiling and 2) looking like you're 30 instead of 50

Be honest…
What do you think that 24-year-old girlfriend of Belichick sees in him? 🤔

@micah_erfan @BraedenSorbo Not enough Americans support universal corruption yet.

@BraedenSorbo Mexico doesn’t have too many Mexicans to afford this, but we do?
What???

If Mexico can afford this, why can’t we?

@elonmusk It doesn't bother that people like Bernie exist, human scum is inevitable; it bothers me that enough people in one state buy into his bullshit*t to get him to the Senate

JUST IN - Trump orders the U.S. Navy to blockade the Strait of Hormuz to "any and all ships trying to enter, or leave." Also instructing the U.S. Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in international waters that has paid a toll to Iran: "No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas."

@MichaelRou72594 @GuntherEagleman @PeteButtigieg @grok You seem intelligent. Enlighten me, what lies am I talking about, did Biden not print $1.9 trillion in his first
3 months in office and after COVID was already under control? Was that not the reason Biden had the highest inflation since Carter?
English
@FatOldBitter @GuntherEagleman @PeteButtigieg @grok You're an idiot who believes lies and propaganda from right-wing outlets using Russian KGB sources
English
Inflation has tripled from just one month ago, and it’s higher than when he took office. Not only has Trump failed to deliver on his central campaign promise to make life more affordable - he is actively, directly driving prices up.
English
@GuntherEagleman @PeteButtigieg @grok Ha! Well played Gunther, the question doesn't even need an answer. Also worth noting that Bidenflation was pure idiotic executive abuse of the Treasury and NOT a knee-jerk spike in energy prices as Buttajoke is calling out here
English
@PeteButtigieg Hey @Grok, what was the inflation rate under Joe Biden?
English
@PeteButtigieg Core CPI is 2.6% for March vs 2.5% in Feb. What Buttajoke is not telling you is his metric is solely driven by the spike in energy prices and is NOT the Fed's preferred measure of inflation.

@NickNehamas When 13 million people flood across the border you need to make some aggressive adjustments. Your extremely biased slant lays the blame squarely on the cleanup crew rather than the negligent gatekeepers who left the floodgates open

In interviews w/ the NYT, judges described overt pressure from their bosses. In a previously unreported whistle-blower complaint, one fired judge said he was told about granting asylum: “Maybe if you were Jewish and escaping Nazi Germany in 1943, you should get it.”
English
NEW: President Trump has turned the immigration courts into part of his vast deportation machine by pressuring judges to deny people asylum and firing those who do not comply. The asylum rate has fallen to its lowest rate in decades.
English
@NickNehamas Hmm and the "asylum rate" is something we care about? This sounds like something the NYT would recklessly propagate without context or supporting detail. I'm sure you would never do that tho... 🙄

@micah_erfan CA "GDP growth" is NEGATIVE without the AI boom. Can't believe you're taking credit for that 🤣 🤣🤣

No Republican will ever acknowledge this reality.

🚨 Since Gavin Newsom was elected in 2019, California’s GDP has grown 40%.
English
@GovPressOffice FL has 18% larger population than NY but spends aprx half of what NY spends. Is that MAGA nonsense too?
English
This is MAGA nonsense.
California has 16 MILLION more people than Florida. Of course we spend more on critical services.
From 2015 through 2023, we paid $29 BILLION MORE a year to the feds in taxes than we get back — subsidizing red welfare states like Florida.
And unlike Florida, we actually expanded Medicaid to cover people (broadly supported by the public).
They left people uninsured. We didn’t.
That’s the difference.
Stephen Moore@StephenMoore
California wants $137.5 BILLION in federal Medicaid funds, more than the entire budget of Florida. Gavin Newsom is pushing a 15% spending surge while the rest of the country foots the bill. This is a taxpayer bailout!
English
@SenWarren Our country can no longer afford the Democrat tax and spend death spiral. We NEED to vote GOP in every election starting today
English
Over $86 Billion.
That’s how much chaotic Trump fees are costing Americans every year.
The President promised to lower costs “on day one,” but his failed policies have only left Americans to foot the bill.
English
@TomSteyer How did Big Oil screw Californians? You mean when they could no longer afford to pay the high tax and regulations imposed by Democrats and left?
English
California gas prices are absolutely outrageous—all to pay for someone else’s stupid war.
But any driver knows that this isn’t entirely new. Gas in this state has been way too expensive for way too long.
The days of Trump and Big Oil screwing Californians are numbered.

Yes or No ✋

@SenWarren Do you even work anymore? Or whatever it was you were doing before Trump got reelected?

Donald Trump is using foreign steel to build his gold-encrusted ballroom.
It's a slap in the face to every American steelworker.
"America First" was always just a slogan to Trump.

@ChristianHeiens Who would have thought the govt could be 352k employees smaller with no noticeable difference? Oh right, all of us thought that.
English
Since Trump took office, over 352,000 Federal employees have been fired, resigned, or retired and were not replaced.
The Federal workforce is smaller today than at any point since 1966.

No, but it makes you an idiot. Hegseth would literally (not figuratively) skull f*ck you
Canada Hates Trump@AntiTrumpCanada
Every time I see Pete Hegseth give a press conference and he says things like “warrior ethos,” “lethality,” “peace through strength” and “god is good,” I want to punch him in his smug, war criminally face. Does that make me a bad person?
