Protestors in D.C. showed up for Ukraine amid the recent US betrayal and blackmail, signs read "stop Putin" #3E #EndOligarchy #EndImpunity #USprotests #DCprotests #StandWithUkraine

This is the House Republican budget plan that Donald Trump endorsed. Trickle up economics.

The US government is now nonstop performative idiocracy.

There is not a snowball’s chance in hell that Christopher Wray, Merrick Garland, and President Biden hadn’t known for at least four fucking years that Donald Trump was a Russian asset. If they didn’t, then every single one of our intelligence agencies….sucked. In short: They fucking knew.

NEW: Federal government employees are sending me ideas for how to respond to Musk's OPM "Five Bullets" email. My latest: #Emails2DOGE www.muellershewrote.com/p/federal-wo...

It might be a cult.

Who is ready to bring it?

Imagine you were a transnational cabal of elites trying to recreate Weimar Germany in America — to steal its labor and resources. You’ve installed a government and now you need to seize total power. Let’s say you wanted a Reichstag, what would you do? www.mind-war.com/p/lets-say-y...

This is not a summit, it’s a performance review.

Members of the military are supposed to be loyal to the Constitution, not the president. Changing that seems to have been the point of the Friday Night Massacre. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

This is how I would respond to the email Musk has had sent to government employees (not legal advice). 1. Refused to violate the law. 2. Refused to violate the Constitution. 3. Refused to bow or scrape. 4. Refused to bend a knee. 5. Deleted this stupid email.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Dear OPM FOIA staff - Remember to preserve all of these email responses, as we will be submitting FOIA requests for this consolidated compilation of information on what the entire federal government did last week. Thx - FOIA community

Sending an email to employees asking them to list five things they did that week is a classic move from a manager who has no idea how to manage

This hits hard.

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

For the first weeks, Americans seemed frozen, expecting institutions to do something. Americans were used to “checks and balances” and “guardrails” working. That didn’t happen. People realized that they had to take matters into their own hands. 👇

The DoD has never passed an audit and no doubt its spending should be reviewed. But Sec Hegseth knows little about how DoD works, and less about national security. It would be a good idea to bring in some expertise rather than just throwing the axes.  www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

When the stupid reveals itself..once again.. We don’t do kings, no matter how hard you try, asshole 🖕🏻 #SheShed

These people all have actual conflicts of interest that should keep them from working on any investigations like this. It's a measure of how tainted and corrupt this Justice Department is becoming and it breaks my heart. I hope it doesn't break our country. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Infuriating! 😡 Don’t Cut My Medicaid! The majority of my son’s medical team are in Austin (1.5 hr drive), some in Houston (3 hrs), one in Dallas (5 hrs). Telehealth appts are needed & necessary! My son has extreme car anxiety, not to mention wear and tear on our car, gas! 🤬 And we’re not alone!

They continue to tell this debunked lie 🤥 for a reason: so when they cut social security to pave the way for their tax cuts for the rich you think they had an actual reason to do it.

You don't fire Judge Advocates General unless you plan on issuing unlawful orders. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-f...

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

$200 million taxpayer dollars spent on “tell me I’m pretty” ads to stroke his own ego, while he fires people to “save money.” Sociopathic.

Make it make sense! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Dan Caine, Trump’s new replacement for Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, reportedly told Trump, “I love you, sir. I think you’re great, sir. I’ll kill for you, sir.” He also put on a MAGA hat, despite it violating military protocol.

This gets my vote for tweet/post of the year. This is a RED ALERT post. This is exactly why he’s doing it.

Eggs are now so expensive they’re smuggling them like fentanyl.

83% of Americans disapprove of King Donold’s pardoning his Jan. 6 goon squad, and now his poll numbers are falling faster than a gold-plated toilet in a hurricane. SMITE!

Way to go, Sheryl!!

200 million dollars of waste.

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

Yup!

C-PAC is a cult gathering, not a convention! This “Third Term Project” poster at CPAC is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. The same people who were screaming about “the deep state” are now openly fantasizing about a dictator-for-life.

Says the guy who won't even respond to the mothers of his own children

. General Mark Milley was right . . . ... and he's still right ! 💠 👊 💠

Do you make less than $360,000 a year? Your taxes are about to go UP. And you have Trump, Musk, and the Republicans to thank for it.

Not very transparent www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

I am very politically active and write/call my congressman often. I have lived in his district for almost 2 decades. I have never seen him in person and it’s not for a lack of trying. No town halls. No visiting his district. I’ve never seen hide nor hair of Sam Graves.

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

Trump lies his ass off at CPAC: "77 million [votes] and it's actually much more than that, because despite that, they cheated like hell. It was just too big to rig."

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...

“Elon Musk’s cost-cutting team is eliminating jobs at the vehicle safety agency that oversees Tesla and has launched investigations into deadly crashes involving his company’s cars.”
