I want a president who is tougher on Putin than he is on Harvard.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

This guys former players need to start coming out and telling people who this guy is.

Musk is blaming "Herbert Sandler," among others, for secretly financing the protests and Tesla dealerships over the last few weeks. Sandler died in 2019.

Heh

Last week, Elon Musk appeared alongside Trump in the Oval to defend the work of DOGE. Looking directly at Musk, Trump asked; “Could you mention some of the things *your team* has found?” Tonight, the government claimed that Musk isn’t in charge of DOGE & isn’t a DOGE employee.

1. He's right. It's asymmetric and has huge huge reach. 2. He's admitting Fox's role in the propaganda.

This is a good time to remind everyone that this administration hasn't done anything for anyone. It has literally only taken away things we've already paid for and fired and sued people. Oh and the quid pro quo with Adams. That's the extent of what they have done. Kinda nuts.

Ugh

Waiting for the one time, one time he says anything bad about Putin.

A day after his ‘highly productive’ call with Putin, Trump echoes the Kremlin’s main talking point by blaming Ukraine, the U.S., and NATO for Putin’s war. What a fu*king traitor

The "large scale social deception" contract Musk is conspiracizing about was: * first awarded under Trump * paid to Reuters' data division, not the newsroom * for researching *defenses* against deception * not revealed by "DOGE investigations" and was a public record, visible online for many years

My favorite is "you have TDS " LOL. But the goal is important enough to deal with the meaningless responses in order to get to quality engagement

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

This is who, 30 days ago, the Washington Post endorsed for Senate confirmation. Saying that DOJ "filed charges" intentionally misleads people into thinking DOJ took criminal action. It's just a civil lawsuit. Support @atrupar.com and independent media like him.

Donald Trump isn't interested in a smaller government, he wants a weaponized government. He doesn't want fewer federal employees, he just wants them loyal to him.

Not a damn word will be said. They are playing themselves into no power. It won’t be Democrats taking it. It will be Elon and Trump taking it from them. Already have in some ways.

Lil Marco. Haha. Clown.

Anyone question why?

Been telling everyone.

If you’re a republican Senator who votes for Tulsi Gabbard, I don’t ever want to hear a goddamn word out of your mouth about national security ever again.

In December, NYT revealed that Elon Musk and SpaceX were failing to meet govt reporting protocol designed to protect state secrets while they haul in billions in Pentagon contracts. This triggered three reviews, according to the NYT. One was from the Defense Department inspector general. 1/

The new cover of Time.

THIS is why Elon Musk and his DOGE cabal should be hauled before Congress to answer questions: www.wired.com/story/treasu...

How would rate President Musk’s first 2+ weeks in office?

I wonder why Musk is focused on the federal civilian workforce (4% of the budget) and not federal contractors, which account for 3x more annual spending and are more prone to waste, fraud, and abuse?

Paying attention yet while all these people were placed or no?

This is getting old.

Every new agency, it needs to be said: Musk is NOT going after DOD, which has never passed an audit. This is not about the deficit.

Collins: Is there a tangible concession in your view? Davidson: Yeah, absolutely. It’s a commitment from Trudeau to help with fentanyl Collins: He announced that plan six weeks ago. Davidson: Well, at least he's reiterated it

If we had a healthy legislative branch right now, @elonmusk would be hauled in front of Congress today & asked questions under oath. There’d be immediate hearings/congressional oversight. But that’s if we currently had the legislative branch our Founders envisioned. And we don’t.

Good time to see which people are genuine conservatives vs those who are happy to go along with destroying checks and balances for short-run goals

CNN: DOGE Threatened Use of U.S. Marshals to Force Entry Into USAID In this video, we examine CNN's report on DOGE, a Trump-created office with no congressional mandate, that reportedly threatened to call U.S. Marshals to access USAID systems. youtube.com/shorts/w2JLt...

Where are the defenders of the US as Elon and nameless private agents infiltrate US agencies, commandeer US servers, steal US data, seize US money, march US officials from US buildings? Who sallies forth from the FBI? The CIA? Congress? DoD? The media? This is a coup—and America appears defenseless.

Do yourself and democracy a favor. Support independent media.

See it's funny, because there probably was a time in U.S. history when an unelected plutocrat gaining illicit access to government systems would have resulted in him being dragged out of whatever government building he was in at the moment by his balls by armed government agents within +/- 3 minutes

Elon Musk has access to the lockbox that distributes $6 TRILLION annually. He's not a government employee, elected or Senate-confirmed official. He owns multiple federal contractors. What could POSSIBLY go wrong in FAFOville, USA now?

@schumer.senate.gov good lord! Just leave! You are major issue with all that is going on! Fact you put this out there is just embarrassing and Trump is laughing at you!

So, what's the budget of DOGE? Is it part of the government? Is it independent? What are the guidelines, if any, that govern its reach and authority? Did people vote for Musk or Trump? Also, how does a private citizen have access to our Treasury's federal payment system?

NY Times, Feb. 11, 1933.

This guy is now responsible for the safety of our planes

An unelected billionaire, with no actual Congressional authority or govt experience, has access to Treasury payment systems and sensitive information about millions of Americans who receive Social Security checks, tax refunds, and other payments. What could go wrong? www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/u...

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

There appear to be at least three separately operating heel factions breaking things within the government in wholly different ways right now. There's the Miller-headed immigration one, the DOGE/Elon one, and a Project 2025 OMB one. This dynamic hasn't showed up in mainstream reporting at all.

There’s no bottom. Less than two hours after the plane crash in Philadelphia—and just 48 hours after the deadly midair collision in D.C.—the Grifter-in-Chief took to Truth Social to pump his shitcoin scam. Absolutely disgusting.

One thing has been made clear in the past two weeks: Americans are not safe with Donald Trump in charge.

Context for the CDC eliminating data from its website today. This was in Project 2025.

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.
