The Gilded Age is Trump's ideal--let's check the stats, shall we? --most Americans disenfranchised --most Americans in extreme poverty --most Americans worked 12 hour workdays, 6-7 days a week --most Americans consumed unsafe food, water, medicine The Gilded Age was great only for the rich folks

DOGE’s expenses have risen above 40 million, with weekly costs now exceeding 10 million. We will release an updated DOGE staff list soon.

At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

Look Guys Roger Stone is going to confiscate weapons

BREAKING: The USDA has confirmed five additional dairy herds in California have tested positive for the virus, raising the total to 732. Currently, 74% of the state's dairy herds are infected with H5N1.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

Robbing America's poor to pay off the some of the richest humans ever to live.

Oh you sweet summer child, Federal Hurricane recovery funding for west NC won't be "delayed." It's simply never going to happen. Ever. That ship sailed on January 20th. #ncpol www.yahoo.com/news/federal...

200 million dollars of waste.

DOGE staffer Gavin Kliger has amplified Nick Fuentes & called for a pardon of Derek Chauvin. As of 2/7/25, Kliger was still employed by Databricks—backed by DOGE advisor Marc Andreessen’s VC firm, which has hired Daniel Penny (recently acquitted of manslaughter re: a Black man’s death) 2/7/25 1/

Elon doesn't seem to understand how the federal government works.

W.E.B. Du Bois on the white takeover of southern public schools after Reconstruction. Not a coincidence that the chapter, "Back Towards Slavery," follows his analysis of the eventual dedegration of the public school system. Attacks on education are vital to (re)instituting authoritarian rule.

lol

Who is ready to bring it?

They continue to tell this debunked lie 🤥 for a reason: so when they cut social security to pave the way for their tax cuts for the rich you think they had an actual reason to do it.

Either this is a distraction, which is irresponsible, or it’s serious, which is insane. You choose, Mr. Trump.

Trump didn't willingly give up power in 2021 and he's not going to willingly give up power in 2029. In 2020, he actually submitted his fortunes to the vagaries of an election. He'll never make that mistake again. There is a 0% chance that Trump departs willingly on January 20, 2029. 0%.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Elon’s evil munchkins sent this ridiculous email out to all 2 million or so Federal employees demanding they reply by midnight Monday. If you want to let them know what you did last week I’m bet they’d love to hear from you at [email protected]! I can’t wait to tell them about my norovirus symptoms!

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

This is why we have debt. It’s tax cuts for the wealthy not programs for tbe poor. There are more sources and you can find them easily online. www.americanprogress.org/article/tax-...

Members of the military are supposed to be loyal to the Constitution, not the president. Changing that seems to have been the point of the Friday Night Massacre. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

“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.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

“If FBI agents who are just doing their jobs aren’t free of the risk of political prosecution, then who is? In a country run by a president who has accumulated all power into his own hands, you never know who might run afoul of the leader’s good graces.” joycevance.substack.com/p/kash-patel...

"...to pay for Donald Trump’s $4.5 trillion tax cut, the benefits of which will largely flow to billionaires like Elon Musk, Republicans will have to gut vital programs that working- and middle-class Americans rely on..." - Senators @MarkWarner @timkaine bluevirginia.us/2025/02/frid...

Three updates: 1. The Justice Department has deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct. The database was first proposed in 2020 following the police killing of George Floyd.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

Republican Senators who voted for RFK Jr. have the best healthcare in the world, paid for by you. They don’t care about what’s going to happen to your kids, your parents, or you.

In addition to Congress being the place that makes the laws, pretty key thing, the constitution explicitly says Congress gets to create the postal system. It’s not left implied that that comes under law making generally. The President has no power to unilaterally abolish it and move it to commerce.

Hey everyone! I did an emergency live over on Substack, reminding us all that we will win this thing! Take a look! adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

The Good Ol' Boys network is alive and well. An Alabama grand jury has recommended that a city's police department be "immediately abolished," finding there is a "rampant culture of corruption there. abcnews.go.com/US/hancevill...

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Many in the U.S. are likely processing grief or dissonance, high emotions, & fatigue. These are intentional outcomes by strategic manipulators, because they increase vulnerability. It’s important to transition quickly to channel logic & action. (1/2) www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK507...

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...

American presidents don’t even joke about this. Just because he’s petty doesn’t mean this isn’t dangerous.
