No more work-from-home, government workers, except for Kash Patel, who will run the FBI from Las Vegas www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Trump freed 1,500 criminals on his first day in office. Now he just helped Andrew Tate, who is charged with rape and human trafficking. What happened to “law and order”?

Of the 4000 researchers at NIH, only 20% are tenured. They’re going to fire all the rest as their contracts come up for renewal, absolutely decimating research at the NIH. This is catastrophic, not just for Americans, but for the whole world. www.science.org/content/arti...

We’ve tried to shelter our minds but tonight we’re preparing for the genocide of Science. Entire NIH departments will have no leaders. World renowned Scientists kicked to the curb without cause, & grants will loose their lead investigators. Is this what they want? Chaos? Destruction?

So Trumpers, three options: He's senile. He's a liar. Or both.

My daughter's boyfriend is a federal worker overseeing big wildlife preservation projects. He's always had a federal credit card for incidental materials needed for the projects he is working on. That credit card had a $25,000 limit. He was recently notified that there is now a limit of $1. Fact.

UPDATE: Florida Democrats are demanding to know why Trump loyalist Cory Mills hasn’t been arrested. Rep. Mills has been accused of assaulting a woman in Washington, D.C. A Metropolitan Police Department spokesperson said an arrest warrant was submitted to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in…

One of the most persistent myths in American politics is that Ronald Reagan was for smaller government. When he left office, there were more federal government employees than the day he was inaugurated.

Mike Slater survived four tours of duty as a US Army infantryman, risking his life in Iraq and Afghanistan. But that wasn’t enough to spare him from the budget ax now being recklessly wielded by DOGE at federal employees.

Remember when QAnon was hunting for sex traffickers? Then Trump imported the Tate brothers from Romania to Florida. #SexTraffickingFirst

NEW: “Kennedy paused a multimillion dollar project to create a new Covid-19 vaccine in pill form on Tuesday, and the Food and Drug Administration canceled an advisory committee meeting on updating next season’s flu vaccine.” newrepublic.com/post/192059/...

F'g idiots! THERE WAS NO PROVISION FOR ANY OF THOSE THINGS IN THIS BILL! Zero for no tax on tips Zero for no tax on OT THERE IS steep cuts to Medicaid,VETS bnfts, SNAP,Housing asstnc, Headstart,school lunch programs & TAX BREAKS FOR THE RICH & CORPS THATS WHATS IN THERE! THIS BILL HURTS RED STs!

So he was drunk or lying.

I’m somehow on a Heritage Foundation mailing list (😂) and they sent a survey to see what we think of DOGE. Who wants to offer some m-fing feedback?!? secured.heritage.org/the-heritage... Please share with a friend or a thousand :)

After Trump embraced crypto, Coinbase gave millions to PACs backing pro-Trump candidates. After Trump's win, they gave $1M to his inaugural and listed his meme coin. Now, Trump's SEC has dropped a major lawsuit against Coinbase. See how this works?

Look at this leader. Lift her up.

Musk doesn't have an official role in the government according to the Trump Administration. Why the hell is a private citizen, the world's richest man, addressing the President and his cabinet?

40% of DOGE's cuts are... meaningless. According to a new analysis by the Associated Press analyzing DOGE's own website, many of the Musk cuts have saved the US government a whopping $0. @juliannemcshane.bsky.social reports:

Another plane incident in DC: An American Airlines flight from Boston had to abort its landing at DCA airport this morning to avoid another plane that was taking off on the same runway, authorities said.

Colorado's Rep Brittany Pettersen (D) flew cross-country with her one-month-old to vote against the GOP budget tonight. Dems ended up one vote short. Pettersen was part of an unsuccessful bipartisan push to allow new mothers to vote remotely. #copolitics

DOGE is canceling government contracts that help veterans. Records show among the 875 contracts were arrangements to help medical services, fund cancer programs, recruit doctors, and provide burial services to veterans.

Congratulations to all those MAGA voters on Medicaid who voted for this Congress and Trump The leopard has started gnawing at your ears When the Senate finishes the job-and you lose your health insurance I hope you enjoy watching Elon celebrate another billion being added to his bank account

BREAKING: House Republicans just passed their budget resolution 217-215 that would virtually guarantee deep cuts to Medicaid and food stamps, all to fund a major tax break for the ultrawealthy... and still add trillions to the national debt.

Brad Schimel is lying about abortion! Behind closed doors, he says he'll ban it. Susan Crawford will uphold the freedoms that Wisconsinites hold dear. 🗳️ Toolkit for WI Supreme Court race ➡️ social.demcast.com/toolkit/WISu...

While MSNBC shit the bed firing the best talent they had, FoxNews is busy mixing up white women

A ‘whistleblower’ has claimed that the Jeffrey Epstein files are being permanently deleted.

Budzinski: "We saw just yesterday another round of layoffs at the VA -- 1,400 more people. When we're trying to address veterans suicide rates, when you're cutting jobs for folks that are actually answering those suicide hotlines, how is that in the service of our veterans?"

😳 this dude ran the FSB [KGB]!

Maddow tries to shake Jeffries into meeting the moment: "Policy doesn't feel like the main convo…we are in the middle of a Ketamine-fueled autocratic power grab rendering Congress irrelevant, making the rule of law an afterthought if not a joke”: Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGe93bq...

This seems bad

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/...

Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) is the subject of an investigation into the alleged assault of a 27-year old woman in Washington, D.C. on February 19. The alleged victim is not his wife. “…the initial victims' police report described a phone call where officers could hear Mills instructing the victim to…

The Secretary in charge of the most powerful military in the world is working for LibsofTikTok now. Why anyone would join the military today is a question that will haunt us for decades.

This is the way.

1400 more firings at Veterans Affairs: "Officials said specifically that Veterans Crisis Line responders were not affected by the dismissals. But workers within the department said that support staff for the crisis line were among the workers let go..." www.militarytimes.com/veterans/202...

This hits hard… “Then she was fired by a Fox News weekend host.” You know what else hits hard? The fact that voters thought it was a good idea to hire a reality show host/bankrupt businessman as President of the United States.
