As we’ve said before now confirmed. FOIA requests reveal that DOGE employees are pulling in six-figure salaries, with many holding the title of “Expert,” a specific Office of Personnel Management (OPM) designation that pays around $190,000 a year.

Judge allows Trump administration to fire veterans affairs employees it deems to be in “DEI roles”.

The National Endowment for the Arts withdrew and canceled grant offers to numerous arts organizations around the country, sending a round of email notifications out just hours after Trump proposed eliminating the agency in his next budget.

The $400 million in AmeriCorps cuts ordered by Musk just hit Omaha’s Partnership 4 Kids right as more than 300 students supported by its AmeriCorps volunteers prepare to take their next steps into college or the workforce.

Trump has ordered criminal investigations into more than 50 federal employees so far, including former intelligence officials, political rivals, and even members of his own administration. He has declared some “guilty of treason,”

So much for small government and states’ rights. The hypocrisy is dangerously absurd. Trump is now suing Colorado and Denver, accusing them of obstructing federal immigration actions the latest salvo in his push to force local governments to carry out deportations.

Musk and SpaceX are among the biggest winners in Trump’s 2026 spending plan. Trump is delivering on Musk’s wish list at both NASA and the Pentagon, reshaping federal space spending to funnel billions of dollars in new business directly to him.

The U.S. Army is planning a massive parade in Washington for its 250th anniversary conveniently on Trump’s 79th birthday. It will feature 150 vehicles, 50 aircraft, 6,600 troops, fireworks, and a full day of festivities. All on the taxpayers’ dime, of course.

Trump signed an executive order to cut federal funding for NPR and PBS, accusing them of biased coverage and spreading “left-wing propaganda.”

The proposed Trump budget is brutal, unless you’re the military or Homeland Security. Here’s what gets cut: - State Department: -84% - National Science Foundation: -56% - EPA: -54% - HUD (housing): -44% - Labor: -35% - Interior: -30% - Health & Human Services: -26% - NASA: -24% - Education: -15%
