Most parents value a good education. Yet The White House calls science, history & critical thinking ‘radical’ while pushing to control curriculum. Who benefits from an uneducated public? Lies don’t justify taking learning away from our children. #

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

Trump campaigned on lowering costs, but today’s inflation data shows he's failing to deliver on that promise. President Trump should be paying attention to rising inflation instead of trying to gut the CFPB, which saves Americans money and protects them from Wall Street scams.

That’s nothing. I found 13 contracts awarded to SpaceX since December totaling $77M. 1/

DOGE's chaos isn't preventing waste — it's causing it. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Hold the fuck on a minute — Assistant President Poopy Pants spent $15 million taxpayer dollars to attend a single football game, but Phony Stark’s Division of DOGEbags can’t find the money to fund childhood cancer research? Are you fucking kidding me?!?

I love the reply! 👍😂

Yes. Going after the courts is a top priority of would-be autocrats: not just Turkey, but Poland, Hungary, Mexico, Israel, etc. It's always about "bringing the courts under the people's control" and "reforming" by limiting judicial constraints and making courts answerable to the incumbent only.

The best Super Bowl half time I have ever seen.

Tesla paid $0 in federal income tax last year. 2022: $0 2021: $0 2020: $0 2019: $0 2018: $0 Tesla reported $6.7 billion in profit in those years.

FACT: USAID funded projects in 120 countries - fighting epidemics, educating children, providing clean water, supporting life saving work. Now nurses laid off, clinics closed in 25 countries where 2/3 of all child deaths occur. All because of Trump’s inflated ego.

The U.S. Department of Labor is organizing a protest. Elon Musk’s staff will be present at the Frances Perkins Building in Washington, D.C., today at 4 p.m. It was mentioned that staff should plan to stay late after the 4 p.m. meeting to assist with setting up Elon Musk staffers into their systems.

The Musk coup is at five alarm fire. I just received this text from a friend: @hcrichardson.bsky.social @briantylercohen.bsky.social @midastouchmedia.bsky.social @marcelias.bsky.social @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social @sethabramson.bsky.social #Musk # Coup

Losing NOAA would be devastating. Project 2025 authors want to get rid of it because it monitors climate change, and privatize the information it currently provides for free, so you'll have to buy information about the weather and the winds (imperative for mariners).

For what it’s worth, when I spent years in Afghanistan and Iraq, the most powerful thing I ever saw was USAID digging wells & repairing schools. The most effective power we will ever have.

Don’t let this slip away. It’s beyond not ok.

ok, so basically I'm trying to make this post go viral.

Who is this person who holds no elected or appointed government position & why is he not being carried out of federal buildings in chains right now? Where the hell is Congress & law enforcement?

The question isn’t whether Budde was right to speak up. The question is whether the rest of us will have the courage to join her.

The coup is already here.

"elite technical units aligned with media oligarch Elon Musk moved to seize key systems at the national treasury, block outside access to federal personnel records, and take offline governmental communication networks"

This. It is absolutely a death by a thousand cuts. Don’t let it be. Everything is a snowballing crisis.
