Ah yes, the person who declared bankruptcy 6 times after his business ventures failed has “business acumen”

Maine Gov. Janet Mills (D) told President Donald Trump “we’ll see you in court” and said her state won’t be intimidated by his threat to withhold federal funds if it doesn’t bar transgender athletes from competing on women’s sports teams.

Just to be clear, this dangerous, yet ridiculous, fascist propaganda is depicting Donald Trump, not as Julius Caesar, but as Caligula.

“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.

so uhhhh did Elon shut down the National Sex Offender Registry too? www.nsopw.gov

Elon’s mass harassment email to all federal employees underscores the importance of having unions to represent workers against abusive management.

Donald Trump replacing a black four-star general with a white three-star general as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is everything MAGA claims they hate about DEI: giving a less qualified person the job based on their race, not their resume.

Posted by @rothschildmd.bsky.social on another platform: “The entire federal government now apparently reports to Elon Musk, who is not the president, doesn't run DOGE according to Trump administration court filings, has no authority to remove federal employees, and tweets all day.”

This is a direct reference to the Proud Boys who use the gold wreath FAFO logo. I fully believe Elon is going to utilize vigilante violence to enforce things. You should take this seriously.

Dan Caine, Trump’s new replacement for Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, reportedly told Trump, “I love you, sir. I think you’re great, sir. I’ll kill for you, sir.” He also put on a MAGA hat, despite it violating military protocol.

DOGE technologists Edward Coristine—the 19-year-old known online as “Big Balls”—and Kyle Schutt are now listed as staff at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.

This is the largest privacy breach in modern history.

Not to alarm anyone but the stooge currently serving as acting head of the Social Security Administration, you know, the one w/access to all your personal info, was, as recently as two weeks ago on paid leave b/c career folks thought he was violating multiple privacy and tax laws

The Trump administration abruptly dismissed the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and other senior officers on Friday night, as the Pentagon moves to bring the military’s leadership in line with its “America First” agenda.

When these inaccuracies were first found, they could be called "mistakes." When DOGE took efforts to cover them up, they can no longer be considered "mistakes."

Say it loud: this is fascism — and we must all resist it. We must guard against the 'bystander effect' when we encounter creeping fascism. tinyurl.com/54hvtw77 It takes wisdom and courage to admit to being wrong. Sadly, very few Trump supporters are in possession of these attributes.

This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.

Just wow. He's openly threatening governors if they don't comply with losing all federal funding by violating their own state laws.

musk's private security deputized by u.s. marshals service -- potentially clearing the way for his personal bodyguards to be carrying weapons on federal grounds. um... www.cnn.com/2025/02/20/p...

NEW: Trump’s DoJ Chief of Staff has filed a complaint against Judge Reyes because she bench slapped their bigoted asses into the sun three days ago.

Breaking News: President Trump fired the country’s senior military officer, a role that traditionally stays in place as administrations change.

Rep. Jason Crow: “The purge of senior officers at DOD is deeply troubling, but purging JAG officers worries me the most. “JAG officers interpret law for our commanders. They help determine what's lawful and constitutional. “Replacing these military lawyers with Trump loyalists is so dangerous.”

NEW: Whitman Walker, a LGBTQ health center in Washington DC, has scrubbed its site of descriptions of gender affirming care services. This is pure cowardice and stabbing the trans community in the back. While services are not affected, it will limit access to resources if patients can't find them.

The Trump administration is planning to detain undocumented immigrants at military sites across the U.S. It's a significant expansion of efforts by the White House to use wartime resources to make good on the president’s promised mass deportations.

Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

The Trump administration is sending asylum seekers and migrants from Afghanistan, Iran, Russia and China to Costa Rica and Panama. There’s no plan for what happens to them next // Andrea Salcedo writes from Panama City with @schmidtsam.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

Arresting someone for calling you fascist seems an excellent approach to proving their point.

Elon Musk's DOGE is gaining total control over key government computer systems — and there may be no way to wrest it back.

Dear business owners that voted for Trump, You could have had $50K in capital and a robust SBA. Instead, DOGE is cancelling all your government contracts and putting you out of business so he can have the contracts for himself.

We're finally gonna get a James Bond movie where the villain is a union organizer

DHS has removed manual guidance barring investigations solely based on sexual orientation and gender identity. This is a prerequisite to targeting the LGBTQ community with criminal investigations solely based on being LGBTQ. news.bgov.com/bloomberg-go...

NEW: Two weeks ago gov't IT experts warned us that the worst case scenario would be if DOGE got full admin access to agency systems. We can report at at least one agency DOGE has unfettered "god mode" access. Our latest: www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

We set up a concentration camp for asylum seekers in the Panama jungle. We set up a concentration camp for asylum seekers in the Panama jungle. We set up a concentration camp for asylum seekers in the Panama jungle.
