Billionaires borrow against their wealth, pay a little interest & report zero income. While you pay taxes on every paycheck. The system is rigged but we can fix it by taxing what they actually earn each year & not a paycheck they never cut. #momsky#sheshed #momthevote

Sources identify Musk as the architect of Starshield restrictions that disrupted Ukraine’s defences during Russian attacks. Others traced the command to the White House. Musk points to Trump and the Pentagon; Trump denies either him or Musk are responsible, leaving Hegseth as a potential scapegoat.

One thing Republicans don't seem to realize is that when they single out one racial or religious minority group for vilification -- whether it's Muslims, or Somali-Americans, or whatever -- it's not just that group that feels targeted. The others hear it too and assume (rightly) that they're next.
