We should send newly confirmed expert, RFK Jr. to Wuhan so he can expose himself to this new virus and let us know if everything is ok. If he looks good after a few months they can send him back home! 😜 I’m sure he wouldn’t want to endanger anyone with vaccines! www.newsweek.com/new-coronavi...

"The goalposts for DOGE have silently moved from finding fraud and corruption to simply pointing out and cancelling government programs that Trump and Republicans simply don’t support." -- @justinglawe.bsky.social

New in PN: Despite the hype, DOGE hasn't found a shred of fraud "With nothing to show for its efforts to find actual fraud, it has become clear that DOGE is the enforcement arm of a Trump administration that has no interest in working with Congress to implement its policy priorities."

DOGE is inflating its savings claims. DOGE counts fully paid contracts as “savings.” Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service says it has saved $55 billion by cutting jobs, canceling contracts, and renegotiating leases. But a closer look suggests that number is misleading.

From food safety to air travel to environmental protections, Trump and Musk have gone on a firing spree at agencies that protect nearly every facet of American life. This has nothing to do with "efficiency" and everything to do with lining their own pockets at our expense.

Again, Trump fired SBA Inspector General Mike Ware after he found $200 billion in fraud in Trump's COVID programs and returned $40B to the US Treasury. Instead, Trump brought in a bunch of fascist boys who know nothing about accounting. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

"If Trump is denying access to outlets that refuse to lick his boots, then any media outlet that has access is compromised. Journalists who want to be worthy of the name have a moral obligation to follow the AP’s example in enraging the toddler in chief."

As inflation continues to rise, don't forget that concentrated corporate power fuels higher prices. But instead of continuing Lina Khan's work, Trump's FTC Chair wants to end the "war on mergers." Minimal competition means maximized price gouging.

This is the dumbest timeline. Trump fired a bunch of people that oversee our nukes because he had no idea what they did, so he had to hire them back. More proof this is a hatchet job www.cnn.com/2025/02/14/c...

This exchange is going to slip by and go undercovered but this is a very revealing moment. Trump’s government won’t study anything, they will just tell us everything is going great no matter who gets hurt. ‘1984’ is upon us.

None of this is about "efficiency." Mass firings occurred at the CFPB this week — one of the most efficient federal agencies. The goal here is to gut the government entirely and remove any obstacles to the continued consolidation of wealth and power by the oligarchs.

Just to underscore the tension at DOJ at the moment, here's what one federal law enforcement official told me about the acting deputy attorney general: "I, along with other career FBI and DOJ personnel that I’ve spoken with, really have one message for him and that is, “go fuck yourself, traitor.'"

CONFIRMED: Trump has banned Associated Press from the White House & Air Force One for refusing to use the term “Gulf of America”. The WH Press Sec accuses them of ‘pushing lies’. At this point, EVERY reporter should have walked out. If the media won’t defend the 1st Amendment what are they for?

The federal civilian worker payroll totaled $271 billion in 2022. The annual cost of permanently extending Trump's tax cuts that primarily benefited rich individuals? $400 billion. Keep this in mind as Trump and DOGE lay off thousands of federal workers.

Musk’s supporters believe that, through tech wizardry and sheer willpower, he’s slashing the federal deficit in a way that has eluded politicians for years. But this narrative has a glaring flaw: The Economist’s review of official data shows that his efforts have scarcely made a dent in spending.

Tom Homan basically admits to a quid pro quo for dropping the corruption charges against Mayor Eric Adams in exchange for enforcing Donald Trump's mass deportation plan. "If he doesn't come through...I'll be in his office, up his butt, saying 'where the hell is the agreement we came to?'" Vile.

NOAA is reportedly on the DOGE chopping block. The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US. A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans. Again, this isn't about efficiency.
