BREAKING: Republicans Confirm MAGA Conspiracy Theorist as FBI Director The Senate has bowed to Trump by confirming his problematic nominees for high-level positions, most recently Kash Patel.

So what’s next? Are we gonna light a bonfire of VHS tapes of “Roots” in a paved-over Rose Garden?

In what is hopefully not a harbinger of what’s to come, the court of appeals split 2-1 along the party lines of the presidents who appointed the judges. SCOTUS, which has performed so poorly when it comes to Trump is about to face a test of whether it can deliver justice instead of playing politics.

Breaking news Federal Judge Amy Berman Jackson has just issued an order saying dictator wannabe Trump “Can Not delete, destroy, remove or impair any data or other CFPB records [and] shall not terminate any CFPB employee”

New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced that she has rejected a request from Louisiana Governor Doug Landry to extradite a New York doctor who was previously indicted by a Louisiana grand jury on felony charges related to her prescribing abortion-related medication to a woman in Louisiana.

We’re not going to split kids into “haves” and “have nots,” especially in the lunchroom. We’re feeding our children - and saving families millions of dollars along the way. It’s that simple.

🚨 HAPPENING NOW: Outside the CFPB building. Senator Elizabeth Warren on fire: "THIS IS YOUR FIGHT."

Hey MAGA, anyone want to explain to me why getting rid of the agency that has prevented another 2008-style financial crisis is a good thing?

Donald Trump and Elon want as many casualties as possible.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

I'm still recognizing and celebrating this even if my government isn't #BlackHistoryMonth

incredible things are happening on the federal employee subreddit

Trump ousted NLRB General Counsel Jennifer Abruzzo and — in a less expected and legally dubious move — also removed Democratic NLRB member Gwynne Wilcox. Wilcox’s position is protected by federal law which states that board members can only be fired for neglect or malfeasance.

BREAKING NEWS: SIX State Attorney generals vow to work together (NY, CA, IL, MA, NJ, RI) to SUE to stop Trump's funding freeze. NY AG Latisha James reveals that 20 states have been frozen out of Medicaid reimbursement and says the move is illegal, dangerous and unconstitutional.
