The anti-DOGE backlash is showing up in GOP reps districts talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/infle... via @TPM

In case there was any doubt

The Senate just voted on a Bill that prohibited tax cuts for the wealthy if any money was cut from Medicaid. It was REJECTED with 51 Republicans voting against it and ALL Democrats voting For it.. Republicans DON’T CARE ABOUT the lower and middle classes

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

This is really something

AOC is showing what resistance looks like; Schumer, Hochul, and the rest of D leadership not so much. www.publicnotice.co/p/aoc-homan-...

If you are experiencing rage and despair about what is happening in America and the world right now because of the Trump-Vance-Musk regime, you are hardly alone. But a groundswell of opposition is growing. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/ten-reasons-for-optimism

This is in fact a real picture and it will work nicely in the ads next year about the military families devastated by Elon's illegal firings.

An FCC probe of an SF radio station over a story it didn't like. A judge-ordered takedown of a newspaper editorial. We are watching the 1st Amendment die rapidly, inspired by a president who declares himself a king How can the media fight back? My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/trum...

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

If you’re ever in public while high on ketamine, this DEA pamphlet suggests you might want want to wear sunglasses, even indoors. www.dea.gov/sites/defaul...

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

Inspired by the abolitionist and civil rights movements, Get Free is mobilizing young people to turn campuses and communities into freedom beacons that defy Trump-Musk’s authoritarian power grabs.

Kash Patel has been confirmed as FBI Director. Republican Senators Susan Collins (ME) and Lisa Murkowski (AK) voted no. History will remember the cowardice of so many across the GOP who chose loyalty to Trump over the rule of law & the national security of our country.

This will go down as the real end.

I regret* to inform you that @propublica.org has updated our DOGE tracker again with a bunch more names: projects.propublica.org/elon-musk-do... *delight

Correct. He’s not capable of playing multidimensional chess. Or chess. Or checkers. Or tic-tac-toe. As one of his aides put it during Shit Show I, “he’s just eating the pieces” on the board. Nothing he does is strategic. He’s purely guided by narcissistic, sociopathic impulses at all times.

Elon Musk just had the Community Note removed from the clip of his interview with Trump that went viral on X. The note pointed out that Musk lied about having to rescue astronauts because Biden supposedly abandoned them.

I made this argument a few weeks ago and got yelled at by people. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/03/m...

"Key congressional Republicans have powers they’re choosing not to use... "Senator Susan Collins, for example, believes the White House and DOGE may be breaking the law. She doesn’t, however, seem eager to use her considerable influence..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

During WWII, four brothers from the same Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis. Only one of the four brothers survived. His grandson is the current President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky. Slava Ukraine! Heroyam Slava! 💙💛

Ah, the good ol' days...

Kash Patel's confirmation by 51 Republicans is an appallingly dangerous act. Who believes what he told them in his hearings? “There will be no retributive actions taken by any FBI should I be confirmed as the FBI director," he said. And, “There should be no politics in the FBI.” Tough days ahead.

Believing that Kash Patel — conspiracy theorist, radical extremist, staunch MAGA loyalist, and newly confirmed FBI Director — is acting in the interests of the United States requires an extraordinary level of self-delusion.

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"
