How much more evidence is necessary to assess that Trump & Co's epic corruption has undermined U.S. national security & is driving the US economy over a cliff for the benefit of his oligarchs & kleptocrats?

Elon Musk is a corrupt person who is trying to buy relevance with his millions. In reality he is being used by Trump and others for those millions and what corruption they can do. They don’t consider him to be a friend; to be part of their “ elite” circle. They just consider him as an easily accessible ATM

Except he has made his fortune on many U.S. contracts and probably worse.

His trillion is American tax dollars and we need to take it back from him, cancel all his American contracts and deport his ass, and prohibit re-entry. He can live on Mars.

There’s no law that allowed him to use Starlink to rig the election, or continue to do so. Though another Repug now owns the majority of the counting machines.

No law allows it, but no one stops him or will stop whichever republicunt sympathizer is using starlink or any internet to rig the election—-not just the upcoming election: all future elections. And the tech oligarchs are saying “there is nothing you can do about it, we’re in control now.” And Maggots just giggle and clap with glee.

The midterms will be interesting to see which elections they will decide to rig. If they don’t, they can always refuse to seat the Dems.

I have never under the Sh*tizens United decision. ¿How is monpolized speech free speech?

Exactly! Well said.

I’ve been suggesting a tax deductible limit of 5% of the individual median income requiring recipients to issue mandatory receipts with copies sent to the IRS to help ensure people don’t over-contribute.

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention in a way that is easily understood. I appreciate all your efforts to save our democracy!

Isabel Taylor's avatar

Wish I could upgrade.

I am shocked and horrified that this is happening.

Our democracy is dead when people give to those who seem to have more power.

We MUST DO BETTER!

Elon say “GOP been berry berry good to me”

He doesn’t have any vote. He is not a US citizen. Federal law strictly prohibits non-U.S. citizens from making direct or indirect contributions, donations, or expenditures in any federal, state, or local election in the United States.

He became a naturalized citizen in 2002.

Lourdes Raupe's avatar

Unfortunately, he became a citizen in 2002.

DemocracyMustWin's avatar

Fraudulently. He came over on a student visa and never enrolled, then overstayed his fraudulent visa. The trillion he has is American tax dollars he had stolen.

Todd Myerscough's avatar

Let's see if we can't fix that in 2029.

Deport his stinking Nazi ass and prohibit re-entry.
