The U.S. government isn’t a machine. It’s people. Fire 80% of federal workers? That’s: 🚨 No food inspections 🚨 No disaster relief 🚨 No air traffic control 🚨 No national weather tracking 🚨 No Social Security or Medicare staff You don’t notice govt until it’s gone and when it is, you’ll feel it.

I hope Europeans also remember that 77% of Americans did not vote for Donald Trump and the 23% who did do not represent Americans.

Leon spent $40 million to make a propaganda commercial… could it be because he had a vendetta to settle? USAID was investigating him over issues with Starlink and the Ukrainian/Russian war. Save USAID!!! youtu.be/PqUESHfuO_8

Your annual reminder that Intuit/TurboTax have spent 20 years using their lobbying power to prevent the federal government from offering you free and functional electronic tax filing. DirectFile finally delivers that, but they haven't stopped trying to kill it. www.opensecrets.org/news/2024/02...

Convo with my friend from Hungary tonight who left after Orban’s election. She said “your head will spin with all the wild stuff they try to pull, new things every day, but don’t take your eyes off the money. It’s all about the money, and what they’re stealing, and for whom.”

An unelected foreign-born naturalized citizen gained access to the U.S Treasury system that contains the personal information of all Americans who receive money from the government, such as social security and tax refunds. This is what Musk paid for by giving away millions to the Trump campaign.

What if there were a coup, the US government fell to a drug-addled oligarch who seized control of our money, secrets, and levers of power, and Corporate media did not report on it?

America First! Unless you mean healthcare, social security, environmental protections, freedom from crippling debt, quality education, or disaster recovery, I guess. Cuts to FEMA now, after so much misinformation about how the money has been getting to states over the last couple years.

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps. The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years. History is repeating. Pay attention.

A linguistics professor was lecturing his class. "In English, a double negative is a positive. In some languages, like Russian, a double negative is still a negative. But, there is no language wherein a double positive can be a negative." A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."
