Youβre aware of βeveryday workersβ who have had to deal with these specific issues being highlighted here? Their employers shutting down their company credit card while they are traveling, for example. These government workers were used to better management until DOGE amateurs moved in.
I get what the issue here is. And itβs terrible. But I donβt remember βterminal illness and in danger of losing a houseβ being strictly federal worker issue. You might choose to, since it never gets to be discussed on these msm networks otherwise.
Rachel, will you and your staff please look into the reports of two (2) federal workers suicides as a result of what DOGE has done thus far? Please. π
You know who else has a terminal disease? 13 y/o cancer survivor DJ Daniel, who was made an Honorary Secret Service agent by President Trump. Misanthropic democrats only scowled & criticized. A young Black brain cancer patient not lauded by democrats? Pure evil. Keep killing Black babies! Al Green
βRepublicans know their spin is a lie, and the truth is they have no problem taking healthcare away from millions of Americans so that the rich can get richer and pay less in taxes than they already do.β Rep. Frank Pallone
Thats the plan... wait til they are dead then they don't get Social Security Disability... But there is Zero reason for a person with a terminal Illness to need a hearing... That is an automatic qualification... what the fuck are they doing
This is heartbreaking! We're doing what we can at the grassroots level, but our congress needs to get off their sanctimonious, or paid for, butts and DEFEND AMERICANS FROM OUR GOVERNMENT !
Thing is there is no way your elected democrats donβt see whatβs happening, they must, so for what reason are they not reacting, there has to be some benefit to them sitting and not challenging these cuts
It was already taking 2-300 days to get a hearing without the recent monkey business. Less than 60K employees to handle the entire countyβs withholding payments, SS payments, applications, hearings, etc. was pushing it. Another RUFKM moment brought to you by Krasnov.
when will democrats get the fuck up off their ass and fight? They see Al Greene fighting and they censure him. They see AOC fighting and they ignore her. They see Bernie fighting but that doesn't translate to the rest of the fucking party. WHEN THE FUCK, THE MOTHER FUCK, WILL YOU STAND UP AND FIGHT?

The American empire is in decline. It's in the process of falling. Both ruling class dictatorship of rich parties have resorted to embracing open fascism. To prevent the inevitable fall of this evil empire. Trump is accelerating the inevitable. No war but class war
FYI Rachel or Steve, or the monitor of this site. I canceled WAPO, and it's going to stay that way. Either it's free, or it won't get read by me. I have many other accounts that value a free press more than WAPO does. I feel sorry for the journalists who still work there.
I am sick of people's surprise! Being surprised only means you didn't use critical thinking skills. You didn't step back to see the bigger picture. You got caught up in the spew of crap that Trump and the GOP puts out daily to distract you from the actual plan they have been running.
Did anybody catch when Trump said that a disruption might occur but he Elon weβre going to take all money theyβre saving to invest in fighting fraud or some kind of lie like that?
Dumbest of the dumb. Procurement cards are the best payables tool available. They only process for approved transactions. Disabling P Cards forces check payments. The most expensive and least efficient payment. Banks arenβt dumb. They will triple the per item deposit fees in a heart beat.
How much is it? I would do it for free if I could translate but I'm willing to donate some cash π heartbreaking.
We need to have our own shadow goverment now
This is not a solution, but as a former translator, I could find interpreters whoβd volunteer, including ASL. Iβm sure others could, too, through the American Translation Association, for example. Itβs much better than nothing. And any coverage of having to do that would make FOTUS look bad.
Donny: This signing of orders and taking actions that have to be rescinded makes our government look capricious, unreliable, and, frankly, unstable. Can we get a little careful analysis, forethought and reliability instead? How about following process? It really does look like a circus.
Government credit cards are one of the most closely monitored spending mechanisms in the government. Even if you make an honest mistake for a small dollar amount you could lose your job. People who actively commit fraud (minuscule) are quickly discovered and prosecuted.
part of the approved budget. So what is this all about? Massive fraud? No. It is merely about crippling agencies and demonizing federal employees as fraudsters taking vacations on the taxpayers dollar.
Rachel, can you please have someone on your show from Canada to push back on the complete bullsh*t drug narrative Trump is pushing? These are the ACTUAL facts:
Anyone wanting to understand this situation better, watch Christiane Amanpour interview Melanie Joly (Minister of Foreign Affairs for Canada) itβs excellent and explains whatβs going on between Canada and the US very well.
Peter Navarro was on Fox last night pushing the narrative that we are overrun in Canada by Mexican Drug cartels. It would be hilarious if times werenβt so charged. π€¦π»ββοΈ
When are we going to realize these two morons are nepo-baby buffoons! One's fuckups are covered up by immense wealth. The other is a dumb whore for billionaires. Epistle to the Naugahydes - Nah. 8- 98.6 https://www.jjcunis.com/post/the-book-of-joe-chapter-2
I coud be wrong but there really was not one person there that could cover the fucking charges so this would not happen? How much does it cost to get an interpretor in?
Adding to your commentβ¦Some of them even in other countries that may not have the funds to get back home. Meanwhile, doge employees are receiving 6 figure salaries courtesy of us, the taxpayers. This whole situation is beyond fcuked.
Where is the compassion? All Iβm seeing is the treachery, hatred & pain inflicted on each department & all deserving citizens. WTH??!! I donβt think very many Rβs think this is the way to cut expenses? I may be wrongβ¦
You would be wrong. MAGAtards don't care, unless or until it actually effects them. If you look on Twitter, you'll see the assholes cheering on Musk to keep firing & ultimately kill people.
MAGA Republicans lack empathy, & 99.9% are sociopaths. The other 0.01% are just too stupid to know any better
You are correct imo. I try to pepper in some facts when I talk to folks here in my RED city and they will not listen. They all think I'm exaggerating this whole crisis
My daughter works at a child care facility on a military base. The credit card used by the center to buy food for the children of active duty personnel has been frozen.
I think tax payers should file for a federal tax exemption due to βtaxation without representationβ. Since the politicians are working not for us, who pay their salaries, but only Trump and Musk.

A greedy, vengeful, homophobic, misogynistic, narcissistic, sexual assault criminal is now squatting in the White House, again.
He was helped back there by another vengeful man, the richest in the world - who is systematically dismantling important, vital work in federal government.
Congress is responsible for government spending. President Muskrat is claiming that the GQP has failed in their responsibility of over sight resulting in wasteful spending. The GQP should pull their heads out of their nether regions & reclaim their jobs.
I would be interested what bills the depts have chosen to pay while cancelling these hearings because they canβt afford interpreters or ASL providers. Why are they selected to cancel first?
How can anyone just turn off credit cards like that? I mean, obviously theyβre gonna do whatever theyβre gonna do but surely it will get challenged in the courts??? π€¬π€¬π€¬
They canceled them without notice. Some federal employees who have to travel for their work were suddenly left with no way to check out of their hotel or pay for meals.

Iβm a progressive capitalist. I believe capitalism should work for everyone not just billionaires. To get there we need a law that requires any for profit entity to have a minimum level of profit sharing with its employees. Shares the profit with those who help create it and incentivizes them.
Canada and the world watch Americans target the weakest among them yet brag about being the best country in the world-the one thing all religions teach is love thy neighbour- not simply saying it, but living it- as we work on a national pharmacare program. #Liberals
Thank you for pointing us to this. I can't hit the heart button because their action is abominable, but I appreciate your time and am glad you're here.
People, particularly the disadvantaged, impoverished or infirm, are nothing but molecular grit in the DoGE machine which only values movement apart from any rights or concepts of justice undergirding "inefficiencies."

Wtf America.
They will start fighting as they try to build a new government. Each has a different vision for the future:
Tech Bros = technofascism
Heritage Fnd. = theocracy
Russia = autocratic oligarchy
This must be stopped!
Protest! Resist!
This is the rapist's first post after he accidently exposed his alignment with Putin.
His #MAGAt army and the media are fulfilling his request.
The REAL news is that the rapist has moved the US to align with Putin!
Just sayin'
