Please Dems, do as he asks and the rest of us won’t get hurt. Sheesh.

DOGE = Damaging Our aGricultural Environment 😡😡 1/8

[P] Look, I know it’s not helpful to the situation, etc. etc. But boy, wouldn’t it be phenomenal if every one of those 2 million federal employees replied with the complete script to BEE MOVIE.

This micro aggression IS psychological warfare and force people to resign. Trump and Musk need to explain to the American public how much time and money they have wasted on EO/DOGE non-core work related items just indulged the whims of self indulged, wannabe dictator!

One of the most clarifying moments for me regarding how utterly, hopelessly divorced this country was from its own true nature and history came in 2008 when I listened in disbelief to educated adults argue aloud that the election of one (1) Black president meant we were in a post-racial America.

With mass layoffs of people who serve the public in a million unseen ways, can we finally reject the business mantra that value is only determined by managing what is measurable? Everything that CAN be measured is not necessarily valuable. And not everything that is VALUABLE can be measured.

Staffing at the HUD office that pays for housing and support services across the country is slated to be cut by 84%. Advocates warn such heavy cuts could make record-high homelessness even worse.

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

If you take Canadian oil out of the equation, Canada actually has a trade deficit, and the U.S. has a surplus — of $58 billion. We supply cheap oil to the USA to ensure North American energy independence, so North America can never again be held hostage by OPEC countries. #Canada #Trump #cdnpoli

So the President not only fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. He also fired the top JAGs at the Army, Navy and Air Force. Those are the lead people who determine what is a legal order and what is not. So if you're planning to do things that are illegal they're the most obvious obstacle.

She’s missing. Please, share this.

Simple question…👇 Why?!

You know this is 100% going to happen…

If you look at all the firings across the government over the last two weeks it's frequently been taken as a given that any black or woman official or officer is either a DEI hire or supports DEI and is summarily fired on that basis. Seems like the same model here.

NEW: Minnesota was just ranked a top state both to retire and to raise a family.   By investing in the things that matter – economic opportunity, health and safety, and strong communities – we’re building the best state for all Minnesotans from childhood through retirement.

Former 🇺🇸 ambassador to Russia 👇🏽

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous cars—which Elon Musk claims are the future of Tesla—is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

Fuck Marco Rubio.

This is perfect. Tip of the cap to the unknown creator of this meme.

"I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath." @marcelias.bsky.social responds to Elon Musk's recent criticism of him. Read Marc's full letter to Musk below.

At CPAC, a new group pushed for Donald Trump to serve an unconstitutional third term. The effort, called the Third Term Project, is being led by Shane Trejo. He once co-hosted a neo-Nazi adjacent podcast called “Blood Soil and Liberty.”

Texas. Where the lone star is a review.

Happening in California, too. My best friend is a librarian at an elementary school, and she said many students haven't been coming to school, and the ones that are have been distraught and unable to focus.

Orange Hitler is gonna deport legal immigrants too.

If you want an arm gesture to indicate your loyalty to a group or movement, you can make up your own. We'd've thought it was dumb, but you don't have to do the Sieg Heil. If you keep doing a Nazi salute, then we're gonna go ahead and call you "Nazis" because, clearly, that's who you are.

Letter: Utah senators: Remember your duty is to the Constitution and Utah, and not to a political party, or to the president

U.S. Marshals Service deputized Elon Musk’s private security, granting them federal law enforcement protections. The beginning of the American SS. Watch it grow exponentially.

This.

How many federal workers would DOGE need to fire to make up for Musk not paying his fair share of taxes? Answer: 677,000. That's 44% of the entire non-DoD federal workforce. Again, this power grab is not about the budget. It’s about politics.

“the United States is not a startup. The federal government exists to do all of the things that are definitionally not profitable, that serve the public good rather than protect investor profits. (The vast majority of startups also fail, something the United States cannot afford to do.)”

In the wealthiest nation on earth, 25% of seniors should not be living on $15,000 a year or less. We should EXPAND Social Security, not cut it. I will soon be introducing legislation to significantly raise Social Security benefits and extend the solvency of the program.

No notes

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

He should be our messenger.

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

Excellent idea.
