The DoD has never passed an audit and no doubt its spending should be reviewed. But Sec Hegseth knows little about how DoD works, and less about national security. It would be a good idea to bring in some expertise rather than just throwing the axes.  www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

Listen up.

💥The Netherlands' largest pension fund, has sold its shares in Tesla, Meta, and Alphabet (Google). The fund with US $569 billion equivolent in assets is "directing more money to companies and projects that help to improve society and the environment." #Divest www.reuters.com/markets/euro...

Trump Had This 'WTF' Reaction To Elon Musk's Cringey Jump For Joy, New Book Reveals www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

The Dept of Homeland Security has budgeted up to $200M to run anti-immigrant ads in the US & overseas that REPEATEDLY THANK TRUMP for leading an immigration crackdown. DHS Sec Kristi Noem said that these ads were Trump’s idea. 🔥NOT WASTEFUL AT ALL, RIGHT?!!🔥 www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

So, this fascist regime fires the most highly-skilled, experienced military leadership in order to replace them with far less competent sycophants. What will those fired military leaders who believe in the Constitution - and their oath to it and our people - do now?

There are basically two ways to save a country suffering from a wannabe strongman.

200 million dollars of waste.

Fuck cancer.

Call me crazy but maybe two men who fathered 17 children with 6 different women between them shouldn’t be lecturing us about family values!

A MUST-SEE‼️ The PayPal Mafia—Musk, Thiel, Sacks, and Botha—have ties to apartheid South Africa & a hand in US policy and the election. • Elon Musk – Unelected co-president, dismantling the government for his own gain. FUN FACT: His grandfather wanted to scrap democracy for technocrat rule. 🧵

Trump is a goddamn traitor to America. Any congressional Republican who supports him — or is afraid to stand up to him — is just as much of a traitor as Trump.

His poll numbers are TANKING.

My open letter to Elon Musk.👇 Mr. Musk, You recently criticized me and another prominent lawyer fighting for the rule of law and democracy in the United States. I am used to being attacked for my work, particularly on the platform you own and dominate. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

You don't fire Judge Advocates General unless you plan on issuing unlawful orders. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-f...

DOGE claims it "saved US $50B" Not sure if that's a one time or annual savings It's roughly $2.75 a week per American Not even enough for a small Starbucks latte 🤦🏻‍♂️ In the meantime, National Parks & museums have closed; VA & FAA employees have been fired; and people are dying overseas

this is from a new report on a “third way” on DEI and it is unbelievably naive, which in my view is emblematic of the author, rich kahlenberg, whose willingness to extend good faith to obvious bad faith actors borders on gullibility www.progressivepolicy.org/a-way-out-of...

Who is ready to bring it?

“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”

A new website created by about a dozen federal employees, called “We the Builders,” aims to be a secure outlet for government workers to share stories about how their workplaces are being impacted by DOGE, and a place to explain the real-world impact of its access to government tech systems.

And out of our lives, ideally.

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.

Delusional old man. His approval rating is tanking.

No doubt last night’s purge reflects racism and misogyny. But those wrongs are just a cover for the far more serious evils and dangers that exist here.

This is what happens when people have disregarded science and chosen to forgo life-saving vaccinations - RFK,Jr is going to be held accountable along with the GOP who voted for him! #ProudBlue #DemVoice1 www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

🚨BREAKING: @democracyforward.org sues on behalf of unions, retirees to block access to personal and sensitive data at SSA. This case comes after SSA commissioner stepped down due to concerns about DOGE accessing data. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

Drug dealers will get the death penalty? Surely he can't mean the rich white ones on Fifth Avenue? How would his boys get coke? It would be a shame if all the gangs had a truce and stepped up to fight for one cause.

Why would we let the “audit” of the gold be done by the person mostly likely to steal the gold?

Make it make sense! 🤦🏻‍♀️
