Why didn't DOGE LOOK FOR FRAUD, WASTE AND ABUSE in the Department of Defense before they raised the budget from $800B to $1T?

Could any so-called journalist stick a microphone in front of Senate Majority Leader Thune or House Speaker Johnson and ask them why they are betraying their oath of office.

No kings, masters, overlords or any of that bullshit. Time to take the country back.

Oh no no no. Not this time. This bill ends us. Any MOC who has not read all 1000 pages needs to get primaried! Enough laziness when you are deciding our children’s lives. Their lives are in danger because of the fucked up vaccine, science, medical (abortion ban) and education policies in this bill.

They are so complicit in the downfall of America. Every single FOX employee should be ashamed. And their lying is criminal imo. Treason, in fact.

I'd still like editors to ask musk why he didn't have doge look for waste, fraud and abuse in the department of defense.

Editors, please assign a deep dive piece on the grave damage musk & doge have done to the United States, rather than how he’s feeling about it.

Sen. Booker introduces bill to transfer Marshals Service That is good bill to pass, Senator Booker. The Marshall Service should have been under the court all along. It did not matter before when we have presidents who obeys the US Constitution and laws

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody." But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies. Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

Guys, it's the oligarchs. If you want to blame someone for 2024, blame the oligarchs. Anyone telling you to blame someone else is part of the oligarchy. Dark money has been to blame since citizens united.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say trump did a solid for Putin when he withheld US military aid to Ukraine for almost 6 months earlier this year giving a Putin time to restock his munitions. apnews.com/article/trum...

@jonallendc.bsky.social You just said SS/Medicare are defended and Medicaid is not well defended. I'm on Medicare and have heard part of Medicaid cuts takes $500B from the paygo system hurting Medicare. Will this be resolved? Lastly, does the gop look for fraud waste and abuse in the defense budget?

Look at the take for the top 0.1% (those making above $4.3M/yr). Then look at the take for the rest of Americans. This bill is a heist.

@hawkkoh.bsky.social "What about trump's cognitive ability?" Since the tapper book came out, to your credit, you're the first one to bring up the cover up of trump's declining health. 👍👍 Love Biden!

I definitely get the impression that between libertarian tech bro monsters and theocrat, autocracy hungry billionaires, we’re under very serious attack. Who’s the master mind? Putin, Thiel, Vought, Yarvin, somebody else who we don’t even hear about YET??? 🤔

Every single segment on cable news about Jake Tapper's book talking Biden is one less covering Trump's corruption, his war on our Constitution and his crimes! And that is by design.

Phang: It’s time for federal judges to acknowledge that they have lifetime appointments—and that should give them the courage to uphold the rule of law, but also to put some damn teeth into the court orders they’re issuing. it’s time that we start seeing action from the judiciary. Grow some balls

The house has passed a ban on coverage of gender care for all ages under Medicaid, CHIP and ACA plans. I don't know what to say to anyone this morning other than that the hundreds of thousands of people who are about to lose access to the care they need to stay alive deserve better than silence.

Abject hypocrisy from the so-called pro-life party. Demand a baby be born, then abandon any protections that would guarantee the child a life worth living.
