We must believe these Republicans. If they win, they'll try everything possible to get their greedy hands on SOCIAL SECURITY & MEDICARE. That would make many of our proud SENIORS HOMELESS & WITHOUT CARE!

Reminder of what GOP is against:

-Minimum wage
-Strengthening gun safety laws
-Taxing the wealthiest firms and the super-rich
-Guaranteeing freedom and equality for women
-Ending the dark money in campaigns
-Providing Medicare for all
-Raising frozen Social Security benefits
-Restoring voter rights
-Funding childcare & sick leave
-Fighting climate w renewable energy
-Reducing skyrocketing drug prices and increasing funding to prosecute corporate crooks.

All of those are opposed by the GOP.

Key point: Musk needs China, as the largest manufacturer of Tesla, and a very important market.

In return, China’s pressing him enormously to control Twit according their demands. And yes, that’s anti-America, anti democracy.

"The Republicans are pretty simple, actually, and pretty straightforward. They say, 'I want you to be very miserable. And I want you to be very angry. And I want you to vote for us, and we'll make it worse, but we'll blame them.'" ─Bill Clinton

Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and the UAE are among the biggest abusers of Twitter for propaganda, with one of the highest takedown rates of state-backed influence operations. FBI is pursuing a case against Saudi nationals who infiltrated Twitter’s HQ in San Francisco to send private information, potentially about dissidents, to members of the Royal Family.

"I'm really pleased our sales teams have gotten much better at pricing than ever in the history of our company. We are not going to be giving this pricing back. Now, it is not a matter of 'Can we take price increases?' Now, it is about, 'How much of a price increase are you going to take?'" - McGarry, CEO, PPG
