Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

Trump and Musk’s efforts to shrink the government have left the country’s wildland firefighting force unprepared for the approaching wildfire season. One federal employee likened the funding freeze to a “massive sledgehammer” hitting the force.

Can you imagine thinking a government employee making 40K processing Medicaid payments to a parent with medically fragile children is the enemy, while thinking a billionaire who sends his sperm to random women and takes billions from the government to go to Mars is the good guy? WTF.

Elon Musk posted these two tweets the same day, just hours apart. Don’t sugarcoat it — he’s not just a far-right authoritarian, he’s an outright fascist. Musk isn’t even trying to hide his true intentions at this point. STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR HIM.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Fact check: nearly 70 percent of US money for Ukraine actually went to US defense industry to replenish the stocks of OLD stuff that went to Ukraine to use. Much of which we would have paid to destroy as their lifespan expired.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes. The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds. This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen

It blows my mind that MAGA will literally cum on themselves watching trump do his stupid "jerking two guys" dance to YMCA, but they lost their fucking minds over Kendrick Lamar's well choreographed, incredible halftime show last night. I can't qwhite figure out why.

Some don't want posts like this on @bsky.app. I want more. Why ? This is a moderated platform. Which means unbridled hate is removed. And blocked. Making this is a platform where we can engage and have real discussions on real issues. @bsky.app w 100m users changes political discourse.

If you're one of the Americans who believes we spend 40% of the federal budget on foreign aid, YOU'VE BEEN LIED TO! USAID represents less than 1% of the federal budget Shuttering USAID is a threat to public health & opens the door for Russia, China, et al with developing nations

The reckless decision to release billions of gallons of water from the Terminus and Schafer Dams is already hurting farms and farmers. It’s a massive waste. I'm demanding answers from the Army Corps of Engineers about what happened. And why.
