I’ve emailed my senators and congressman already. Then I heard they are often ignored and it’s better to call. I tried to call this morning and got transferred to their offices. Got a recording asking me to leave a message. Then I got hung up on. The attempt to call my representative just got me hold music from the switchboard, no answer. I’ll try again later.

I was advised to keep my message short and on one issue. I plan to say “Get Elon Musk and his crew out of our Treasury and USAID computers, then out of the rest of our government. Please return our experienced civil servants to their positions.”

I’ve printed the list of the 27 members of the Senate Finance Committee, and plan to call them, too.

1. Boo hoo that farmers who voted for this monster suddenly realize potash comes from Canada. So much for "owning the libs."

2. I encourage immigrants to march with American flags, as the Mexican flag = negative optics.

Agree on #2. Doing that was how Prop 187 got passed in California 30 years ago.

This really needs to be stressed. I have more on this below but it’s so true that Prop 187 was a reaction vote. Protesters need to be smart, strategic, inclusive (ironically), and coordinated.

In 1803 the USA bought greater Louisiana from Napoleon for approximately 3 cents per acre.

In 1867 The USA bought Alaska from the Russian Czar for approximately 2 cents per acre.

In 2025 Elon Musk bought all 50 states of the USA from Donal Trump for 0.21 cents per acre.

Just saying....

TC, I surmised Elmo's Net worth would take a big hit today apparently along with thousands of short-selling Day Traders. Tesla's stock price & Elmo's holdings was down 🔻before the opening about 2% & ended down at the Close🔻5.17%

My estimate of Elmo's LOSS was way too low. Better-Call-Saul that's DEREK SAUL at FORBES who put Elmo's LOSS of Networth today $10.9 Billion🔻. That's a hit if you are trying to be a Trillionaire.

I took a look at Elmo's holdings & he apparently Elmo has pledged 1 HALF of his TESLA stock as collateral for "personal" loans

I smell a Shareholder's Lawsuit if a pissed OFF Insider, 1 of the INSTITUTIONAL stock owners or just FOLKS who are investing wants to get to the bottom of the perfidy.

The Farmers Government

website is offline and down.

This may be part of USAID

and the Food Bank programs.

So much for potash and

potatoes in Iowa.

The youngest techie bro

Musk brought in is 19. The

oldest is 24. These are the 4

guys screwing around in our

nations financial services.

Musk and these guys are not

"ELECTED" officials. A note to

your state AG that they are

illegally scoping your private

information, as well as theirs,

might help move the ball

down the red/blue field.

The AG in Texas is Ken Paxton. Prayer useless against the Texas trio of devils.

Hope I get my infirm butt healed before FtW has one. I used to drag my husband to protests, but now I’ll have to meet new fable rousers

First off, I had no idea people in Ontario drank so damn much. I guess they have to stay warm somehow.

Very glad the LA and Houston protests were peaceful and that local law enforcement, amazingly, kept their cool. You know Donny is just itching for an excuse to declare martial law.

Finally, just to reinforce the point earlier, immigration maladministration is merely one of many awful things to protest which 🍊💩 is doing. Protesting immigration enforcement shouldn’t be understood as an identity issue. And it’s certainly not a Mexican-American issue. There are people from all over the world getting caught up in 🍊💩’s raids. The problem is lawlessness on the part of 🍊💩 and his enablers. It is a uniquely American issue. Displaying foreign flags merely blurs the issues and gives racists additional motivation.
