We must be warriors. Outsmart them. Outmaneuver them. Flip the switch before they can react. Use the element of surprise. Distract them. Confuse them. Scare them. Hit them from every angle. Knock them off balance. Keep them reeling. Be relentless.

The DOGE effect: Social Security is falling apart—crashed websites, endless hold times, and not enough staff. Millions of retirees, disabled Americans, and legal immigrants are getting locked out. The agency is drowning in dysfunction. PS—This feels a lot like my final weeks as a Tesla owner. 1/2

One thing that is clear from these headlines is that the big news orgs don't have a vocabulary or strategy for how to report to readers when the President claims to do something he not only lacks authority to do but even the power to do. That's a very basic, foundational thing.

Happy One Month Anniversary to this story.

This should’ve been put into place after his first term.

“If the government goes ahead with these cuts, new care homes will to have to be available.” I spoke to carers about the catastrophic impact of upcoming PIP cuts: when a disabled person loses their benefit, their loved one will lose Carer’s Allowance too. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

The only way someone can be added to a Signal chat is if the person who started the text group--the admin--directly adds them or directly approves their request to be added. There is no way Jeffrey Goldberg could wish his way into that text group. Mike Waltz accidentally added him. That's it.

🦋 DOGE has caused chaos & the SSA is now on the brink of being shut down 40% of older Americans depend on Social Security as their primary source of income SSA is responsible for $1.5 trillion in benefits to 73 million retired workers who are flooding congressional offices with angry phone calls 🦋

very helpful to democrats that one of the most unpopular people in american politics is front in center in the administration, allowing them to make the very easy case that you should vote for democrats to check elon musk.

It’s worth stating this simply: For literally anyone in the US Govt from 1945 to 2025, Signalgate would require an instant resignation—and a criminal investigation. It would be a matter of personal *honor* to resign. The fact Mike Waltz & Pete Hegseth are choosing to fight it out is a terrible omen.

It’s very discouraging to watch our country slowly re-learn the lessons that led to the end of segregation, among them that people who think they’re racially superior are nearly universally incompetent fools unable to face up to their own deficiencies and putting them in charge is suicide

HERE IS THE TURBO XL MEGA CONEHEADED MOTHER OF ALL UNICORNS THAT BEAT MYTHICAL AND BIBLICAL UNICORNS BY FAR !!!

I did a deep dive into the criminal laws and past criminal cases that are most relevant to "Signal Gate." Focus your mind on this: Special prosecutor criminal case against former head of CIA John Deutch for "gross negligence" in use of his personal home computer for national defense information.

MUST WATCH: The CIA spies on the entire world, but the moment they’re under oath, they suddenly have amnesia. That’s not a memory lapse—it’s a cover-up in real time. “I don’t recall” really means “If you knew what I knew, we’d all be in handcuffs.”

This is what happens when you have an entire cabinet full of folks who would NEVER pass a regular security clearance. Led by a president who would never be able to pass one either.

Pure Insanity!!! Two of the 14 Characteristics of a Fascist Takeover is to go after the media and the judiciary and the gop is two for two tonight!!! 🤯🤯🤯

I absolutely love Rachel Maddow. This woman is brilliant. Complete and total bad ass. #RachelMaddow

BENNET: Did you know that the president's Middle East adviser was in Moscow on this thread while you were as director of the CIA participating in this thread? Were you aware of that?! RATCLIFFE: I'm not aware of that BENNET: It's am embarrassment

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.
