The premise of this is that Musk is making himself available to media to answer real questions about the work of DOGE. That simply has never happened - not once. He has made statements on conservative ppodcasts, but has done a Q&A with a journalist or a press conference.

Lawyers have to move in unity ASAP.- law firms, civil rights, law schools, tax lawyers, prosecutors, criminal defense, etc. The government can't just sic the AG on attorneys at the whim of a President by the power of an EO under the seperation of powers. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Just like his first term, Trump has already been enjoined by courts in his second term more than either Obama or Biden were in their entire terms. It’s not the courts. It’s the illegality. This is how the Constitution is supposed to work. Not that I'd expect a demagogue to be rational.

Trump’s commerce secretary Howard Lutnick says if Social Security skipped a check, his mother-in-law wouldn’t complain—and if you would, it indicates you are probably a fraudster. Insane. youtu.be/aavEmJSqJVQ?...

I cannot accept, under any terms, that a criticl opinion allowed under our freedom of speech is a cause to arbitrarily label, and potentially go after, anyone. That is, by definition, unbridled tyranny. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The White House calls judges that rule against it ''liberal" or "activist". Judges across ideological lines are ruling against Trump at similar rates. This isn't partisan opposition to Trump—it's the judiciary functioning as intended by cutting across partisan lines to uphold the Constitution.

D.C. police responded to a call about persons trying to force entry into a building by arresting the people who called them for help. If this doesn't convince you that we are currently under a facist dictatorship, then I guess nothing will.

For the record, there are decades of precedent, possibly over 100 years worth, where judges routinely give oral orders from the bench, and they are binding, just like written orders posted to a court’s docket. I'm not even a lawyer, and I found that out in 30 seconds.

Coming from someone who got caught on video in a movie theater vaping and groping a (clothed) man's genitals, this should be ironic. Instead, the level of hypocrisy is insulting to anyone with half a brain.

The math doesn’t work in the president’s economic promises, which will create a giant upward transfer of wealth. Tarriffs are form of regressive tax. Trump’s tariffs will be paid by the poor – while his tax cuts help the rich. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Take this with a large grain of salt, as Rolling Stone's editorial room is not what it once was. However, the authors do have good reputations. If true, planning has likely been going for years. Maybe decades. truthout.org/articles/exp...

You've all heard bastardized versions of it, but the correct quotation and the person who said it is: “Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing.” -John Stuart Mill And it has never been more evident in American history than it is today.

"The order, which had no lawful basis, was issued after terrorist TdA aliens had already been removed from US territory." A federal court order to another branch of government is not illegal. It is their primary constitutional power. POTUS is now in contempt of court. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Someone actually pre-drafted a FOIA request for you to send directly to DOGE so that you can find out what personal information of yours they have. If you have an attorney who can request on your behalf, with the response sent to their office, even better. drive.google.com/file/d/119jz...

This is never a surprise. It's rarely the women or minorities who work at something like Habitat for Humanity or soup kitchens. Its so often white men in white, male dominated hierarchical organizations, often religious or with ties to religion. www.texastribune.org/2025/03/12/r...

Trump is slashing another 1,000 jobs at NOAA. The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US. A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans. Again, this isn't about efficiency.

Trump and Musk's SSA cuts will mean longer wait times for beneficiaries, worse customer service, and fewer people receiving their earned benefits. Make no mistake: this is an attack on Social Security itself. (‪Revolving Door Project‬ ‪@revolvingdoordc.bsky.social‬)
