For years, I’ve called for making high-quality generic drugs here at home so we’re not reliant on foreign countries for access to medication. @smith.senate.gov and I have a bill to make life-saving drugs in the United States.

Instead they blame immigrants

The People Carrying Out Musk’s Plans at DOGE Save this NYT’s piece as a comprehensive list of the names behind DOGE—the unsanctioned agency dismantling our government and not actually efficient or transparent about waste or fraud. DOGE IS THE FRAUD!

In January 1941, President Franklin Roosevelt answered the "America First" of his day - and foresaw the "America First" of ours: "We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests."

The elimination of 10,000 programs has left countless kids and refugees facing death, officials warn. Evidence from documents and interviews shows the State Department made these cuts without the thorough review they lied about in court. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Not very patriotic. Un-American in fact.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

The double standard, the projection, the hypocrisy… it’s never ending with these moronic grifters.

Brutal.

apnews.com/article/trum... Trump's moves test the limits of presidential power and the resilience of US democracy

Interesting…

I didn't spend any money today or use any META, or AMAZON, but I like what this post suggests:

Elon Musk isn’t a genius—he’s a government-funded grifter under investigation. Every contract, every dollar, every scandal—it all connects. Keep this: It’s a roadmap for every move Musk and DOGE make.

Please read—this is becoming serious!

This moment is medieval - Jackson Katz on misogyny and why men must oppose Trumpism

If politicians keep trying to dehumanize & kill #women.. guess what happens to politicians for deliberately trying to find clever ways to dehumanize & kill our wives, our daughters, our moms, girlfriends, nieces, aunts, friends? or kill any other #women? Guess. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

it is horrible watching them degrade someone who is just trying to save his country

how do I tell my friend her vote ruined people’s lives and she needs to wake up without pushing her further in the wrong direction

With corporate media capitulating to trump, and subscribers cancelling their subscription to the wapo, where can we get news from trusted sources? Downtown Nasty Women Social Group has created “Trusted Sources” list. Here’s their recommended list and please consider subscribing to them:

Turns Out, Trump and DOGE Haven’t Actually Saved Any Money. The Trump administration spent $710 billion between January 21 and February 20, nearly a billion more than Joe Biden spent in a similar time period last year. share.newsbreak.com/brppz483?s=i16

How it started/How it's going

Donald Trump SPOTTED in Jeffrey Epstein's personal address book. Full list of contacts here (this was already released in 2015 FYI): www.documentcloud.org/documents/15...

American govt. classes are gonna have to start prefacing every lesson with “well this is how it’s SUPPOSED to work, but”

"They found that overall, nonviolent civil resistance is far more successful in creating broad-based change than violent campaigns are."

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

So Trumpers, three options: He's senile. He's a liar. Or both.

Im excited to take place in the economic blackout boycott tomorrow. I hope you'll join me and millions of others.

This was even too shameless of a lie for this account. MAGA influencers are trying to scam their own voters.

NYT: “DOGE deleted the top five highest savings claims on its ‘wall of receipts’ leaderboard after variousnews outlets pointed out multiple errors in its calculations…” newrepublic.com/post/191973/...

On the HHS Leadership call today: 1 employee from CMS (Center for Medicare/Medicaid Service) and 2 employees from SSA (Social Security Administration) have died by suicide after their firing.

Let’s go www.yahoo.com/news/no-amaz...

“You’re terminated because…?” Fired federal employees are telling their stories—no deep state, just career public servants tossed aside. DOGE’s mass firings aren’t about efficiency—they’re gutting expertise, wrecking lives, and calling it “reform.”

80 year old JoAnne Fabrics and Crafts is going out of business and closing all its stores, following in the footsteps of 130 yr old Sears, 125 yr old KMart, 102 yr old Radio Shack, 42 yr old 99¢ Store, 63 yr old Payless Shoes AND MORE Killed by private equity hedge funds.

Department of Government Inefficiency.... “It’s like confiscating used ammunition after it’s been shot when there’s nothing left in it. It doesn’t accomplish any policy objective,” #USpoli #DOGE apnews.com/article/doge...

"The increase to Musk's wealth since Trump was elected president three months ago is greater than all of the American aid given to Ukraine over the last three years."-- @timothysnyder.bsky.social

New column from Gil Duran looks at a book that inspired the techno feudalism that the “elite” thinkers like Musk & Thiel are driving us all towards. Eye opening & scary. Must read… must share. www.thenerdreich.com/the-sovereig...

If you want to keep track of all of the agencies where Elon Musk has pursued mass staff forced-resignations and firings and how many employees have been affected so far, you need to bookmark this link: abcnews.go.com/US/agencies-...

A leading Republican, Rep. Lisa McClain, says the complaints of people at town halls don’t matter because they’re “deranged.”

UPDATE: The charges against her have been dropped “in the interest of justice” (she bit one of the brownshirts that assaulted her) and the private security firm has lost their license to operate. I hope she sues them into oblivion.

they’re looking for any reason to enact violence against the people

The people were offered the choice of human rights and dignity, or being stupid for cheaper eggs.

Repukes Suck🙄😡

In the last 30 years, about ONE TRILLION DOLLARS that used to go to wages, now go to corporate profits
