The poster child for white male mediocrity, Pete Hegseth, is firing qualified Black men and women from the military.

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

Look at Trump’s alternative facts about Russia Ukraine saying Russia was attacked.This MFer absolutely can’t tell the truth & he is obviously enamored w Putin or his puppet or some personal financial gain involved. #TrumpIsANationalDisgrace

Lazier than ever.

Trump accuses federal workers of “playing golf.” He spent the last three weekdays golfing.

Murphy: "The game is clear. We can see it. They're not even hiding it. There is not a rule of law anymore. There is one set of law for people who are loyal to Donald Trump, and there is one set of law for people who care criticize him. That is not democracy."

The waste is coming from the White House. 👇

Thank goodness we have United States Senators who take very, very seriously their Article I responsibility to engage in … {checks notes} … fact-checking www.npr.org/2025/02/19/n...

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

About 50 years ago, I was reading political thrillers, including several by Fletcher Knebel. His 1966 novel, NIGHT OF CAMP DAVID, centers on a U.S. president who has gone insane. Signs of insanity include: desire for (a) an alliance with the USSR, and (b) annexation of Canada.

Money and markets, y'all. It's your superpower.

Trump blames Ukraine for starting the war the way a rapist blames his victim for looking too sexy.

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

Gotta love that Trump is still whining about that 60 Minutes interview and how they edited it -- during a pre-taped chat with Hannity that is chopped up.

Just one thousandth of what they said! No big deal.

Trump and Musk "accidentally" fired government officials who were working to contain the bird flu—now they're scrambling to rehire them. A complete and total shitshow.

Trump explains that he's empowered Elon Musk to police his own conflicts of interest and acknowledges that might work to his financial advantage

Trump during campaign: Starting the day I take the Oath of Office I will rapidly drive prices down Trump today: Inflation is back...I had nothing to do with it

Stephen Miller just said on CNN that DOGE staff are employees of the government and are properly authorized. Where is there oath of office and background investigation?

Watchdog group @WeAreOversight.bsky.social wants to intervene in Trump's classified docs case, hoping to dissolve Judge Cannon's order blocking release of the Jack Smith report's Volume II. They filed on Feb. 14—and sought an expedited ruling today. Doc https://buff.ly/4k5N20N

NEW: Letter from 900+ former federal prosecutors warns of decisions at Justice Dept "Some of you have been ordered to make charging decisions based expressly on considerations other than the facts & the law, including to serve solely political purposes" www.thejusticeconnection.org/wp-content/u...

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

It’s becoming very clear that the Trump Admin never had any interest in serving as an honest broker to end the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The plan was always to join Russia and others in plundering the Ukrainian economy like a 17th century colonizer.

He met with the Russian Foreign Minister so they could talk about how they could divide Ukraine between them. That isn’t leadership. Trump promised he PERSONALLY would meet with Putin & Z and have a deal 24 hours after taking office. The world laughs at these stupid statements.

BREAKING: All seven of Elon Musk’s companies — X, xAI, Neuralink, Starlink, the Boring Company, Tesla and SpaceX —have netted a combined $20 billion in US government contracts and subsidies, according to the Financial Times. Does MAGA care to comment?
