@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."

How many federal workers would DOGE need to fire to make up for Musk not paying his fair share of taxes? Answer: 677,000. That's 44% of the entire non-DoD federal workforce. Again, this power grab is not about the budget. It’s about politics.

Federal career workers: We appreciate you and your work. You don't deserve this mistreatment. Here's a file with lots of resources if you are facing illegal termination. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

The JFK Library in Boston is reportedly closed indefinitely because of federal job cuts

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

Here’s a small, easy thing Dem communicators can do: when stories like this break, call the reporters and a) ask to be contacted going forward on stories within their jurisdiction, b) give them a blistering statement, c) blast it out on all channels. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

DOGE in practice: Disabled Army veteran who has 4 kids and did 3 tours overseas is fired from his job at Bronx VA hospital

The top criminal prosecutor in the U.S. attorney's office in Washington quit today, citing pressure by the Trump administration to open what she viewed as an improper criminal probe of a federal contract. ca.news.yahoo.com/senior-u-pro...

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

Prius at 0:16 doing the ope let me sneak by you real quick

This is the second Sunday in a row the Kansas City Chiefs won’t be playing football.

this is really fucking bad. what the fuck.

On Friday night, HHS ordered CDC to take down all flu vaccine campaign materials from its website. Materials are starting to come down. For example, a campaign explaining that flu shot can reduce flu severity from "wild to mild" is now offline. Left image is from Friday, right is now Meanwhile...

i feel like it's an open question whether or not the flu vaccine will even be available next season

Spot on.

This is the way.

kermit the frog has done nothing wrong to deserve the patrick mahomes comparisons

I imagine @harvilla.bsky.social was stoked to see Lauren Hill was on the SNL special last night.

Absolutely amazing—and embarrassing. - Grossly unprepared - Absolutely no grasp on geopolitical and military policy - Proving a Fox News guy as SecDef is a really bad idea (He’s nothing without an ear piece or teleprompter feeding him lines.)

CFPB - closed USAID - closed Medicaid - under attack NIH cancer funding - frozen Department of Education - under attack But do you know who just got a NEW government contract for $38,858,978 literally today? SpaceX — owned by Elon Musk

If you’re in line to sack Patrick Mahomes, STAY IN LINE

Oh my God I thought this would be over after like 30 minutes. He is still going. 🤮

Every headline that does not say “illegal” or “unconstitutional” is a failure to convey to the public the stakes of what is going on.

I do believe that PPP fraud and Pentagon spending really need to be audited

In response to a post on X from @maxwellfrost.bsky.social showing the effort to get into the Department of Education building this morning, Elon Musk replied, "No such department exists in the federal government"
