Neither study even attempts to study the macroeconomics impact which will 100% cost more money than the "savings" ever saved. The math has been crunched. Nothing about DOGE is good for anyone except Elon Musk

Noooo! @msnbc.com, don’t mess this up. The Weekend trio is 🔥—they keep it real & that’s what folks are looking for right now, but so does Joy Reid. She brings facts, truth & a perspective we can count on. We need that now more than ever. Real talk: replace Morning Joe instead. Viewers are over it.

Separately, on Musk's email, a point I think is not being made enough is that federal payroll makes up less than 5% of US government spending. Federal workers are 1.4% of all workers, but they're responsible for how 25% of US GDP is spent. This has nothing to do with saving money

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

The Elon regime is effectively about making the lives of hundreds of thousands of government employees miserable. Not even so they quit, tho that too, but first and foremost out of an ideological commitment to hating public sector workers & public services.

I wish more people were talking about egg prices as less of a “muh egg prices!” thing and more about the fact that there is an organized egg cartel that is illegally price gouging and almost certainly illegally price fixing and reaping massive, gigantic profits.

Gov. Mills showed precisely the sort of integrity in the face of political pressure that the majority of the party currently lacks. More importantly, she did so extemporaneously and without hesitation from a purple state where this isn't a universally popular position. www.maine.gov/governor/mil...

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

The president having what amounts to a business meeting in the Oval Office with a foreign investment fund that backs a golf tour that's held numerous events at his properties is pretty outrageous. The conflicts are even more brazen than last time. www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2025/...

I think it’s neat that the Biden administration gave him a monopoly on Ukrainian communications and then did nothing when he switched off their comms to protect Russian warships.

Once upon a time, these were actions by a private company. Now they are actions being undertaken by a high-ranking government official, in connection with his public activities. This raises 1A issues that didn’t exist before.

Note that Bannon and Musk represent opposite sides of the US far right (Traditionalist populism vs technocracy). The fascist salutes aren't coming one faction of the "Conservative" movement, this is now a powerful cross section of its leadership.

Tough situation. Maybe at some point we can amend the Constitution to provide a specific power Congress can use against an executive who’s unlawfully usurping its authority.
