An NPR review of new data added to DOGE's "wall of receipts" finds the group quietly changed previous errors, added new ones and still has little verified savings to show for its work.

Just pulling money out of each department to put in their own pockets while Americans look on. Broad daylight corruption with a “what are you gonna do about it?” Attitude because Congressional GOP is along for the ride instead of doing their fucking jobs and removing these people.

Just giving up everywhere it matters and lining their own pockets as fast as possible while Republicans in Congress pretend all of this is normal and not at all corrupt or treasonous.

Blatantly using the office to pilfer our coffers and line his own pockets. I just cannot understand how anyone voted for this man.

Let’s see, Donald Trump launched his crypto business right before taking office. Melania did the day before the inauguration. Junior launched a new one too. Oh, and of course Eric did.

When you think of Nazi Germany the good Germans that didn’t vote for Hitler aren’t the first to come up in your heads. The same goes for the US or Russia. Don’t want to be represented by evil? This is your turn to show what you would have done under Nazi rule.

one curious feature of our particular dismal political era: some people have gotten so addicted to the particular vice signaling around empathy / concern for other people that they seem to see evidence that something will benefit others as evidence that it will harm them

Trump’s State of the Union should have been about peace-he promised to get that done before he took office while campaigning. His idea of peace turned out to be forcing Kyiv to take responsibility for Russia’s invasion, give up resources & accept occupation. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...

old Soviet joke for our times: Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to. Guy says: “looking for an obituary.” Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.” Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

Here’s an idea: If “waste, fraud and abuse” are actually being uncovered, could we see a couple examples that can be investigated and confirmed by an independent 3rd party? Because I believe DOGE is theater.

Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

There is a blind spot for Democrats and it's rural America. We are so uncomfortable working in rural spaces that we've completely given up trying to speak to rural people -- after we abandoned them for decades we turn around and call them racists for voting for Republicans. Ask me how I know...
