“The CFPB is there to make sure that Elon's new project can't scam you or steal your sensitive personal data...This is like a bank robber trying to fire the cops, and turn off the alarms just before he strolls into the lobby.” US Sen. Elizabeth Warren More here:

I heard someone compare Trump’s mass firings to him being a bull in a china shop. I disagree. Trump is a like a bull in a VA hospital. Trump is like a bull in an assisted living facility. Trump is like a bull in an Alzheimer’s research center. Trump is like a bull in a NICU.

Dear third-party voters, you’ve been awfully quiet. What’s up? What’s the game plan for the next 3 years and 11 months? Asking for 75,017,626 friends who did the right thing because we wanted to avoid all of this shit!!!

It seems to me that if Musk has proof that millions of social security checks have gone out illegally to dead people, he should be presenting that evidence in front of a grand jury under oath tomorrow instead of shitposting it on social media. When can we do this under oath?

Folks, we're beyond the point where DEI is the stated reason for firing people. It remains the basis for eliminating some programs and some documentation -- and also remains an error-ridden process triggered to keywords, not content. But at this point Trump is just firing bureaucrats.

This WaPo piece has something valuable inside: the names of some of the grownups running DOGE behind the scenes. The Incels are a distraction. These people are real. It'd be helpful for people in the agencies to ID anyone from DOGE for...reasons. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

Without going all Martin Niemöller here, I do think that it's bad not to speak up for immigrants, transgender Americans, civil servants, women, Ukraine, and everyone else the MAGA bullies are going after. We're beyond picking and choosing whom to defend. It's time to stand up and speak out.

JD Vance was owned hard over his excusing of the anti-Indian racist on DOGE, Marko Elez.

I realized today that Trump, Musk, DOGE, Vance, Miller, Vought and their many collaborators have broken so many laws already that they know they have to destroy our government and entire way of life to stay out of jail. This is all or nothing. We should respond accordingly.

Musk's "deferred resignation" contract is a TRAP. Anyone who signs it WAIVES all rights to pursue legal action against the government -- including TO ENFORCE THE RESIGNATION AGREEMENT ITSELF. So Musk and Trump can just break the contract, and there's nothing you can do.

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

Pitch for a new spy movie: a CIA agent spends years getting close to a terrorist suspect then just before he gets the crucial piece of evidence he’s fired and replaced with a teenager who doesn’t speak any foreign languages but does have a lot of followers on X. Everybody dies.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Any four Republican Senators could stop this at any time simply by threatening to block all action (or even caucus with the Democrats) if Trump doesn't make certain concessions. They won't, but that should be a much bigger story than whether the Democrats are doing everything that they can.

Our congressional delegation pursuing oversight on reports of Elon Musk’s illegal activity at USAID was just barred from entering the building on the orders of Musk and the Trump Administration. Nobody elected Musk — this is illegal and corrupt and we will keep fighting it.

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.

I see more criticism here of Democrats in Congress than I do condemnation of Republicans. And yet it is the GOP who are enabling Trump. It tells me a lot when I see you regularly bash our side but say nothing, ever, about the other. Reflect on your choices. You may be helping the fascists.

STEP 1: Donald does something stupid. STEP 2: Donald is surprised there are consequences. STEP 3: Donald backs down. STEP 4: Donald lies, claiming things already agreed to are new concessions he forced by the stupid thing he did. STOP 5: REPEAT
