The cost of defying #Trump in the #GOP.

Very few #Republicans are willing to challenge #DonaldTrump nowadays, even if it means protecting #America 🇺🇸 (cue this disastrous bill that was passed).

👉🏾 North Carolina U.S. Senator Thom Tillis won't run for reelection in 2026 https://www.axios.com/2025/06/29/thom-tillis-retire-senate-north-carolina

So #Canada 🇨🇦 folded to #Trump.

👉🏾 Canada 🇨🇦 ditches tax on tech giants in bid to restart US trade talks https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jun/30/canada-digital-services-tax-technology-giants-us-trade-talks

Yeah, a trade war between the #UnitedStates 🇺🇸 & Canada 🇨🇦 would have economically hurt both countries.

However, surrendering to #DonaldTrump on the “small stuff” only emboldens Trump to make more outrageous demands in the future.

@schnedan I forgot about that too! I wonder if the new bill eliminates those CO₂ credits‽

Now I fully understand why #ElonMusk is freaking out about the #Republican bill.

#Tesla sells not only cars, but solar panels & battery storage devices. Car sales are plummeting but their battery & solar tech combo has few rivals.

After helping #Republicans & #DonaldTrump win in 2024, Musk is upset as he sees the party turning on him (partially in Elon’s response against #Trump).

I think this “Big Beautiful Bill” will hurt #Tesla sales & could threaten the viability of the company by removing the Electric Vehicle Tax Credit.

Most conservatives prefer gas/diesel vehicles, & most progressives hate Elon.

This is long overdue if you ask me! I am glad they are altering their constitution to do this.

I wonder if #Tuvalu 🇹🇻 could opt to build a massive sea wall instead‽

It would be costly, but it might be worth looking into in order to preserve their country.

@knud If you take someone's life, then your life is forfeit. That is justice. Same goes for stealing.

"The Commission will propose a European 28th regime, which will simplify applicable rules and reduce the cost of failure by addressing specific aspects within relevant areas of law, including insolvency, labour, and tax law. It will explore the possibility of enabling companies to establish themselves in Europe more rapidly, ideally within 48 hours.” #EUAcc🇪🇺🚀
