Pretty clear now it's fascists versus the rest of us. The fascists have made that divide very visible, which is the only good thing they've done.

Yup
Regardless of one’s political point of view, there is widespread agreement that we have a corrupt campaign finance system. Our job: overturn Citizens United, end super PACs and move to public funding of elections. Democracy means one person, one vote. Not billionaires buying elections.

the gaslighting is now so insane that America is literally being asked to believe that winning is losing

Have you noticed the political class always finds a way to insist that whatever billionaire tax is proposed, now is not the time for it? And have you noticed that those making that argument are always aggressively amplified by corporate media? Yeah, that’s not a coincidence.

Yup.
🚨 NEW: Jon Ossoff calls for constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United.

Looks like billionaires will stay and figure out a way to pay the tax. If we pass Prop 40, poor California kids can have healthcare. Gavin, can you and Sergey Brin stop with your fear-mongering of a billionaire exodus?
This is huge. A just-released SEC filing makes an extraordinary revelation: Mark Zuckerberg is getting ready to pay California’s 5% billionaire wealth tax and has signed an agreement to remain in California for 8 years. We are witnessing a global turning point unfold before our eyes. 🧵

The world’s first trillionaire is using his taxpayer-subsidized company to intercede into a foreign war against the U.S.’s expressed ally. Any accountability agenda that doesn’t start with Musk behind bars falls short imo

Can't believe I'm retweeting David Frum But he's correct here. (He was statistically bound to be right about something eventually, right?)
I don't believe that Musk turned off Starlink to Ukraine at his own sole initiative. I believe Trump is implicated up to his painted eyebrows. But if it should be true that Musk did it - then Starlink and Space X must be nationalized by the US government immediately.

If California billionaires can scrape together $340 MILLION to fight a tax on billionaires, I think we've officially settled whether they can afford to pay the fucking tax.

This would be a good moment for Democrats to say something like "we won't let this happen."
The Trump admin is moving forward on plans to impose financial penalties on Americans in default on their federal student loans and hire private debt collectors to go after them. The plans are unlikely to be announced until after the midterms. washingtonsun.com/economy/tr…

💔 59 people have died in ICE custody since 2025, including six American citizens killed in ICE violence. 🧊 Congress must abolish ICE, close immigration prisons, and pass the Melt ICE Act. 🔗 AbolishingICE.org

Billionaire spending in the midterm elections is on track to DOUBLE what they spent four years ago. I need everyone to realize that there's a direct correlation between billionaires buying elections and the fact that this economy only works for them. Tax the rich.

So the young man says "the crowds are insane". 150 doesn't seem "insane" to me by any generational marker let alone this man's. Anybody got a count?

One giant health care company could own your doctor, your insurer, your pharmacy, AND your pharmacy benefit manager. So, the same entity gives your prescription, fills your prescription, decides if your prescription is covered, and "negotiates" the cost of your prescription. How is this allowed? I've introduced the Break Up Big Medicine Act to stop health conglomerates from stacking the deck to maximize profits while patients pay more for worse care.

Before Citizens United, the top 15 political contributors spent just $15 million on the midterm election. Now, the top 15 have spent $962 MILLION. That's up 6,400%. THIS is why our system is so rigged. We really, really have to end Citizens United and tax the rich.

Yup
Last week I visited Straiker in Northern California. They are a super important company because they make AI agent kill switches. Humans must be in control of AI, not the other way around. Congress must pass the bipartisan AI Kill Switch Act by Rep Nathaniel Moran and me.

Elon Musk has dumped over $276 MILLION into political groups and Super PACs since July. That makes Musk the biggest known midterm donor. The ultra-wealthy are destroying democracy by buying our elections. End Citizens United NOW.
