On Friday, lawyers for Griffin laid out their case for retroactively disqualifying 65,000 ballots, disenfranchising tens of thousands of registered voters and overturning the election results and Riggs’s victory. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

"A massive fraud" $18? Canada is accusing Tesla of defrauding it *2.4 million times* that amount by gaming Canada's EV rebate program by claiming sales of cars that never happened.

Nothing to see here... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I’m amazed how little coverage this story has gotten. They’ve burned well over $16 million to briefly hold 290 immigrants and several photo ops to GITMO. Just a total train wreck and they didn’t even mention it officially. Check out my latest. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Can you help me get 500 reposts on this post? I am going live on youtube on Friday. I am super pissed off what is happening in our party and want ro discuss Chuck Schumer and more with you. If you are not subscribed to my channel please consider doing so here: m.youtube.com/@adamparkhom...

DOCUMENT DESTRUCTION: My reporter Brett Murphy obtained a remarkable directive to folks at USAID: Empty the safes with the classified and personnel records and then, "Shred as many documents first, and reserve the burn bags for when the shredder becomes unavailable or needs a break."

The U.S. government spent $710 billion in Trump’s first month, an increase from the same period a year prior. Cost-cutting efforts are ineffective, and job losses are occurring without clear justification.

JD Vance claimed on X that “Slava Ukraini” protesters followed him & shouted at his daughter. Guess he didn’t realize it was caught on camera. No one yelled at his kid, and they didn’t follow them. Vance & Musk need to quit using children as shields. The public isn’t backing down—we want answers.

“The vast majority of the Pentagon purge targets women and minorities, including notable milestones made in the military. And it also removes a large number of posts that mention various commemorative months — such as those for Black and Hispanic people and women.” apnews.com/article/dei-...

Facts matter.

Despite the headlines, Trump did not cut the pentagon budget. They reshuffled it. inthesetimes.com/article/trum...

Ugh.

This.

Already hearing that Republican members have been showing up to the House floor trying to take up the Dem side seats for the joint address 💀

Education really is everything

A German woman, Jessica Bröscheis, is being held hostage and tortured by the US at Otay Mesa Detention Center. She was illegally detained upon entry while possessing valid paperwork and a return ticket. Trump's ICE troopers claim she "planned to work", however has no proof. Do not travel to the US.

Pete Hegseth just reportedly ordered the US military’s Cyber Command to “stand down” from all planning against Russia. Analysts have been ordered not to follow or report on Russian threats. One inside source said, “Putin is on the inside now.”

"Most of EPA’s work happens behind the scenes, like when one of its enforcement teams raided a warehouse in Colorado full of mislabeled oil barrels that had been prepared for a landfill and discovered they contained nuclear waste..." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/27/o...

NYT: “DOGE deleted the top five highest savings claims on its ‘wall of receipts’ leaderboard after variousnews outlets pointed out multiple errors in its calculations…” newrepublic.com/post/191973/...

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

CARTOON OF THE DAY

How do you link a government official to an anonymous social media account that asserts, among other things, that "America is a White nation?" Like this. www.texasobserver.org/ice-prosecut...

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

The Washpost, which is bleeding millions of dollars and shrinking its staff, accepted -- and then rejected -- a $115,000 ad that criticized Elon Musk. Anyway, here's the ad that the Post's business side didn't want its readers to see ⤵️ thehill.com/media/514849...

In fairness to JD Vance, he's not wrong that Canada has seen massive increases in the trafficking of fentanyl across its border. He's just a bit confused about the direction it is flowing. The US ships 22 TIMES the fentanyl to Canada that Canada ships to the US. And Canada is a smaller market.

“The systems include a vast database called Enterprise Human Resources Integration, which contains dates of birth, Social Security numbers, appraisals, home addresses, pay grades & length of service of gov’t workers…We have no visibility into what they are doing with the computer and data systems”

So hot!
