Hey, we found another point of common ground! lol
13% approval rating and they want a $60k a year raise.
We need to start voting more assholes out. This vote lets us know who the assholes are. I love it!!

The bill is 1400 pages long.
They had less than 1 minute a page to read the bill before the vote. If you read for one day straight without stopping to pee or eat, you still wouldn’t finish the bill. Even at 30s per page that is ridiculous.
Change is a coming, can’t get here fast enough.

Dems stood up and shit in their own nest with this one.
Imagine your own gov spending money to work against an American citizen and company.
Democrats will own that for many years to come. The people will remember!

Now democrats start to complain about Billiknairs even though they had waaaay more billionaire supporters and people like Soros have been doing it for years.
Elon just does it better. And yall pissed him off. Bad. Bad. Mistake
I'd honestly be okay with the raise if they simultaneously banned stock trading while in congress. $174K/yr does seem low for that job. But we all know they get in it for the kickbacks, insider trading, influence peddling and other financial benefits that aren't in the best interest of the US.
Exactly. A raise is probably fine in and of itself, but sneaking it in an omnibus bill that is supposed to be a “continuing resolution”, especially after the people just voted for Doge was a slap in the face to the people.
The richest, unelected Karen in the history of the world should be giving his money to the cause, not taking it from arbitrary programs that he finds too woke. The optics of this filthy mogul destroying programs/departments that benefit the lesser advantaged will not be pretty.
Change is a comin boys.
Elon is dialed into politics. He has realized an arbitrage much like Soros did. You don’t want to be on the wrong side Of Elon.

Yeah that was due to Bidens inflation print. His last gift to the people, some more higher than expected inflation. What a swell guy.
Meh, the dow dropped because the fed announced they weren’t going to cut interest rates in 2025 as much as they had previously said they would.Thanks MAGA billionaire assholes!

IMO this is a good thing. I have concerns that Trump will come in and try to pressure the fed to go to 0 just to artificially inflate the stock market. Hopefully its a sign that we’ll continue to stave off higher rates of inflation as the economy continues to grow, even in the face of potential new tariffs.
Dow will recover.
This is true and the specific reason they announced they would only cut rates twice is because of their concern about Trump's tariff plan and it's effect on inflation. Then the government shutdown concern just added to the plunge.
Is that what Laura Loomer told you?
