Violet - growing more spines than both Congress and the Houses of Parliament!
It's Violet the porcupine! Contrary to popular belief, porcupines cannot propel their spines and quills from their body. Instead, their spines can embed in an intruderโ€™s flesh if contact is made. Porcupines grow new spines and quills to replace any that are lost.

She would not have bombed Iran. She would not have illegally attacked Venezuela. She would not have destroyed the economy. She would not have pardoned criminals, drug traffickers, and traitors. She would not have supported Putin's Russia. She would not have slept in the Oval Office. She would not have an affected hand. She would not have cut the SNAP program. She would not have used the DOJ to attack her political enemies. She would not have given money to foreign countries. She would not have abandoned American farmers. She would not have prevented the release of the Epstein files. She would not have destroyed American democracy. She would not have trampled on the Constitution. She would not have abandoned the fundamental rights of citizens. She would not have deployed American soldiers against the American people. She would not have destroyed the White House. She would not have enriched her family through government influence. She would not have lied about her health records. She would not have played golf. She wouldn't have asked people to cheat in future elections. She wouldn't have said "Quiet piggy" to a female journalist. She wouldn't have invited Putin to Alaska. She wouldn't have appointed an administration of incompetents. She wouldn't have done everything Trump did.

Kyle Kulinski: โ€œElon Musk is a parasite, heโ€™s a welfare queen, heโ€™s stolen $38B from US taxpayers to do fraud and make a bunch of dumbass rockets explode instantly. This guyโ€™s a ketamine addict, heโ€™s a fucking Nazi, heโ€™s a genuine low IQ dipshit and total con man. And now heโ€™s worth $1Tโ€

Elizabeth Warrenโ€™s proposed 3% tax on people with over $100M in wealth would generate $30B in revenue each year on Elon Muskโ€™s fortune alone. Thatโ€™s about how much the US spends each year on affordable housing subsidies. Tax. The. Rich.
