Here's another frivolous use of taxpayer money at a time Trump is laying off thousands, cutting services to veterans and others in need. MAGAGOP proposed $257 Million for the Kennedy Center, more than 5 times prev. years. WSJ 6/7/2025: It’s Opening Night for the MAGA Makeover of the Kennedy Center

@nytimes.com Following the airing of the EXCELLENT "Good Night and Good Luck" I listened to #BretStephens discuss JOURNALIST's need to report FACTS not TRUTH. He called "Truth" a moral concept. ??? It sounded like Stephens substituted TRUTH for BELIEF. Explain! I expect FACTS and TRUTH. @cnn.com

Trump publicly THREATENS retaliation if Musk influences votes against him or Republicans. I am no fan of anti-democracy Musk who destroys our government while taking Gov. money for his businesses, but he can't be threatened/coerced to vote as Trump demands. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

News: The Trump admin is spending $200M on ads in which Kristi Noem repeatedly thanks Trump for closing the border and catching criminals. Turns out the ads are being placed by the Trump campaign’s top vendor, the ad buying firm Strategic Media Services. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Republicans are on the verge of passing a budget bill that would amount to one of the greatest transfers of wealth from the working poor to the super rich. And two billionaire oligarchs are fighting about it because the bill doesn't cut vital social programs enough. Hello?

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

Trump's proposed data-sharing deal with Palantir would be an appalling attack on our privacy. It goes hand-in-hand with his attacks on habeas corpus. Liberals and conservatives should agree on this: we don't want mass surveillance or erosions of our civil liberties.

IF Musk has "lost his mind", - why did Trump engage a known drug abuser? - why is Musk still overseeing systems embedded in our military that impact Natl Security? - why is Musk being given MORE gov. grants/contracts? NO. There will NOT be a 68% tax increase. Another LIE!

Trump's $45Million dollar shameful birthday parade (+ $ millions to repair roads after they are ruined by heavy equipment is a disgrace. Trump's frivolous, ego-centered spending of taxpayer money, while firing thousands, cutting research, killing ppl in need of meds he discards - is PUTINesque.

1. Trump DID NOT win the 2024 Election by a LANDSLIDE. He received <50% of the votes. 2. Trump always hates NEWS, POLLS, VOTE RESULTS that do not favor HIM. That does NOT mean they are rigged. Maybe the polls that he likes are rigged! (Elec. College was "rigged" until he won in 2024.)

Project 2025 centralizes Gov power in the Pres. Vought's goal was CLEAR, elim. thousands ot Federal employees and replace them with LOYAL Trumpsters - to keep power centralized. Economic elites, Thiel, Leo, Christian-Right (NAR), all want to end democracy - they said so. Greed and power!

Trump is without question the laziest, least intelligent, corrupt person to occupy the Oval Office - except when it comes to SELF-ENRICHMENT ... he has no shame grifting and using taxpayer dollars frivolously when killing children (USAID) and harming others (DOGE cuts)... www.rawstory.com/trump-ego/

I read this more than once to be sure my mind wasn't playing tricks. Maybe we need a class-action lawsuit for "mental anguish" against TRUMP. We'll have millions of plaintiffs: - sm businesses failing bc of tariff - wrongly fired Fed employees - families split bc of BS apnews.com/article/trum...

How about educating the public on MAGA SOP? "flood the zone w sh-t" is a general rule used at all times. It's intended to overwhelm, disorient, then reality has no meaning ... "corrections" are meaningless. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @booker.senate.gov @repjasmine.bsky.social

It just so happens that he was also Trump’s lawyer, so he can’t reveal anything that would hurt his client Trump without facing disbarment.

Can any of the Democrat Legislators see the forest or are they staring at weeds? Vance, Thiel's protege, started The Rockbridge Network. Tech billionaires and political elite are partying together. Watch out 2028 elections! www.nytimes.com/2024/11/20/us/politics/rockbridge-trump-vance-wiles.html

While Musk goes ballistic publicly (part diversion, part histrionic personality), the Leonard Leo backed law firm goes to court. Now, it will be interesting to see how Leo responds to the Technocrats attempt to take-over of government ... He's connected to Thiel, and has his own goals.

@normeisen.bsky.social Musk/DOGE dismantled government w/o a vote, w/o law. Now with Thiel developing an AI-based database of ALL our personal data in gov. hands - what's next? Who DISAPPEARS? Where's the oversight? Who puts the brakes on? see thread👇

Natl Security risk if Musk shuts down systems he's embedded in gov. and continues to control. (What did he do under the DOGE umbrella?) @blumenthal.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov @repjasmine.bsky.social @danielsgoldman.dg4ny.co
