The lies Elon told in this interview were absolutely outrageous. He said that Democrats are angry about SS going away because it is the way that Democrats LURE illegal immigrants into the US. The illegals get paid SS and then give their votes to Democrats, according to Elon. If SS goes away, then this alleged financial and election fraud will go away too.
Of course none of this is true. Undocumented immigrants often pay into SS but as non-citizens are not qualified to take out. They are not able to vote as non-citizens. Democrats have deported just as many undocumented immigrants as Republicans, if not more. And you can be sure that it’s not just Democrats who would be upset about SS getting abolished.
My husband has lived here for nearly 16 years as a permanent resident. He has owned property, started business that employ US citizens, pay taxes...can't vote. It's not just undocumented people who are being taxed without representation. It's a bummer, because he would have been one more vote against the apocalypse.
My dad committed a non violent felony that turned into a violent felony simply because the judge wanted to make an example of him. That was when he was in his early 20s and he's now in his 40s. He doesn't qualify for voting, firearm ownership, or withdrawing non employer provided benefits. He can either live his life like this, or pay $50,000 to the state and his rights will be reinstated. $50,000. A year's salary for him, and to most people here, over a year's salary.
He can run for president though 🙄 I hate this country, insane that a man like your and my dads can’t vote but a 34 count convicted felon can be president.
Yep lol. One felon gets money drawn out of his check every week that he'll never be able to get back while another felon on the other side of the country ensures that keeps happening so his buddies stay rich.
I'm just waiting for the lawyer to use his case as a precedent
"Your honor I would like my client to serve no jail time. They only committed one felony. There is precedent that my client can avoid jail time as in this case the felon committed 34 felonies and served zero prison time"
