We should make sure Americans are not pursuing entrepreneurial, game-changing, humanity-improving innovations and inventions that create enormous value and catapult American competitiveness? That culture and pursuit are what makes America special and unique. And it’s why Europe has no trillion dollar companies and is nowhere in the ai revolution or technology
Elon Musk just became the world’s first trillionaire.
Let’s make sure he’s also the last.

Congresswoman, you’re worth nearly $100 million dollars ALL from trust fund money from your billionaire Qualcomm grandpa. @elonmusk built rockets, cars, & satellites from scratch & pays billions in taxes. You have built nothing & yet I would still defend your right to your inheritance.
It’s beyond sickening that Elon Musk – the world’s first trillionaire – pays a lower effective tax rate than truck drivers, firefighters, or nurses.
It’s not complicated – we need to actually TAX THE RICH.

Best of luck to Penn State wrestling legend Bo Nickal in the historic UFC Freedom 250 mixed martial arts event on the South Lawn of the White House Sunday.
Nickal thanked President Trump at a dinner in DC tonight with friends including Tony Bobulinksi, another former Penn State wrestling champ.

Why the heck would I care that someone is wealthier than me?
I only care about the fact that my own money is being stolen through taxes and inflation.
That’s a much bigger issue to most working class families.
I don’t care that someone is wealthier than I am.
I do care that my wealth is being stolen through taxation and inflation.

The government takes over one trillion every year from hardworking taxpayers to fund welfare recipients.
Elon has never taken a single cent from me.

I have many more issues with Ilhan Omar being worth $30 million than Elon being worth a trillion.

So the $7 trillion of our money that that the government took and spent last year solved every problem seven times over?
I think that would’ve made the news.
A trillion dollars could solve virtually every problem. Any problem at all. But instead it’s all just going to Some Guy

One thing I can tell you for sure.
@elonmusk is not stealing from me. @SenWarren is robbing me blind.

Cory is soooooo jealous 🤣
This UFC spectacle at the White House, dripping with corporate sponsors and pay-to-play billions is crass corruption. While families struggle to afford groceries, rent, and healthcare, we’re watching Trump play Gatsby on the People’s lawn.
This grift must end. We deserve better.

Many cases where socialists are just rich kids jealous of richer kids.
Nobody who grew up poor wants socialism
That’s a rich kid ideology

I was told that the world was not showing up to the World Cup in the USA because America is such a horrible place. Yet all I see is millions of people from all over the world experiencing all that is great with our country. It’s almost like the media lied to us…..

I have no problem with Elon Musk keeping the money he has earned, but I do have a problem when the government steals my money and spends it on stupid stuff like this.
A hamster fight club. Fish on a treadmill.
What a joke.

Here are 5 things our government decided to waste our hard-earned taxes on:
1. $1.5 Million for Fish on Treadmills
2. Millions Studying the Jaws Theme Song’s Effect on Shark Fear
3. $1.7 Million for a Hologram Comedy Museum with “Resurrected” Dead Comedians
4. $12 Million Federal Grant for a Massive Pickleball Complex in Las Vegas
5. Over 3.4 million spent on Hamster aggression fight studies.
Now, I don’t know about you, but I think the last thing they need, is more money to waste.
