Vought is lying. 60-70% of Project 2025's executive action proposals have been initiated or implemented — like gutting education and environmental laws. 30-40% is currently proposed as legislation — gutting healthcare, banking deregulations, voter suppression, and more.

Trump is proposing a $1 trillion military budget. Roughly half of US defense spending goes to private military contractors, with investigations finding that these companies routinely price-gouge. Oh, and the Pentagon has failed seven straight audits. "Fiscal responsibility."

A 25-year-old DOGE bro at the CFPB held $715,000 in stocks that ethics lawyers told him he wasn’t allowed to own while working there — then DOGE fired those ethics lawyers. This is corruption. Always call it out.

I was a social security recipient from the age of 12 through 18. That’s not some weird thing or corruption. It’s called survivors’ benefits. You don’t have to know this. You’re blessed if you don’t. But if you’re going to speak publicly abt the program you need to know this.

Nevada Republican Governor Joe Lombardo during a recent private dinner said that Nevadans who participated in the “Hands Off” rallies were just folks looking for “handouts” and that their central message was that they don't want to go back to work. He said he is troubled by the "Hands Off" message.
