The Real Motive

“The CFPB is there to make sure that Elon's new project can't scam you or steal your sensitive personal data...This is like a bank robber trying to fire the cops, and turn off the alarms just before he strolls into the lobby.” US Sen. Elizabeth Warren More here:

Could this Craziness be Planned?

When Rupert Murdoch’s rags turn on you …

History Rhymes

We can agree that it's shameful if it comes to fruition. I dont think there is any chance it does. I don't understand why people don't believe Zelensky is as good a negotiator as Mexico or Canada. He knows you give Trump the PR win and move on

Facism Chapter 2

An Observation:

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

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"

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

What are The Facts?

At Least 1 Republican tells the Truth!

Teenage DOGE Ninjas

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

Thank you to @maddow.msnbc.com for promoting @bsky.app on air and complimenting it. Her on air support is truly important

Mango the Felon not the Fruit.

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

Action Overcomes Despair!

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Stephen Miller went on CNN and was so transparently full of shit that he ended up lashing out at the host

He’s not making up: news.bloomberglaw.com/banking-law/... Is this really what y’all voted for? 🫤 💰

Bernie Sanders: "We're not only dealing with a move toward authoritarianism, we're dealing with what is new to America -- politicians have always lied, nothing new about that. But the level that we're seeing right now. The big lie, over and over again ... "

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

They voted for the guy who said he would lower the price of eggs. Now we have no eggs.

I am part of the 25%. The lifestyle change is worth it. This is the way…

“Mango Chat” Let’s listen in….

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

white nationalist men are too emotional to be in charge

Fox News host John Roberts: "If you're gonna trust anybody with rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse, wouldn't you want it to be a guy who really doesn't need your money?" (Rich people, famous for not wanting more money ... )
