Is it really a good idea for Trump to have Musk, who rakes in billions from federal contracts through Tesla and SpaceX, lead efforts on government 'efficiency'? This situation reeks of a conflict of interest! What do you think? http://dlvr.it/TJNzc5

This is a Facebook post by Missouri State Rep. David Tyson Smith (D-Columbia). Rep. Mark Alford is one of the members of Congress who got rocked at a townhall in late February. So now they're not just refusing to hold townhalls. They're apparently demanding people keep their office number a secret.

The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster. Why is SpaceX getting a free pass from DOGE cuts? 🤔

One of the lovely things abt Trump doing this BEFORE CONGRESS is it's an official speech, which has more legal salience than his bullshit oval office blather.

Only been 40 days. The goal is to utterly dismantle America, sell it to billionaires, undo the world order to help Russia, privatize everything, and assume complete control and power for Trump who is never leaving peacefully. They want protests so he can crush them and declare Martial Law.

Just an FYI: Medicaid fraud is rarely perpetrated by beneficiaries. The fraudsters are almost always the doctors and CEO's that administer Medicaid. For example: when a doctor charges the government $600 for an $8 breast pump and pockets the cash and the third party administrator takes a cut.

“We are in the midst of a constitutional crisis right now. There have been so many unconstitutional and illegal actions in the first 18 days of the Trump presidency. We never have seen anything like this.” —Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of University of California, Berkeley law school. Time to stand up:

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.
