CALL TO ACTIVISM @calltoactivism.bsky.social · 19/12/2024I'll repeat it again: Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy were never elected to Congress and should have ZERO say in any conversation about the government shutdown. Zero. 33182942002

My problem with Trump is that he only picks people from the wealthy. 110
savbob.bsky.social @savbob.bsky.social · 19/12/2024Why do you say he should have zero say? He is a citizen of the United States. The fact that he is a child of privilege?
