The food we eat, the air we breathe, the schools our children attend, the banks where we keep our savings, and the planes we fly on are all less safe because Donald Trump is President.

NEW: My office is hearing that DOGE is now at the IRS. That means Musk's henchmen are in a position to dig through a trove of data about every taxpayer in America. And if your refund is delayed, they could very well be the reason.

As I said in this piece this morning, I'd call Elon Musk does "confirmation bias on steroids," except that it seems more like "confirmation bias on ketamine." www.techdirt.com/2025/02/13/s...

In day 1 Trump told press that NATO nations must spend 5% percent of their wealth on their militaries. Clearly he doesn’t even know that the US spends just 3% on NATO. We’d need to spend another $500 billion a year to meet his edict. Hashtag clueless. Ignorant. Vindictive.
