Another six-byline alarm on DOGE’s specious accounting. “That contract wasn’t canceled by DOGE or anyone else,” he said. “If they took credit for canceling the contract, they’re lying.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

1/ "The Trump administration has blocked key parts of the federal government’s apparatus for funding biomedical research, effectively halting progress on much of the country’s future work on illnesses like cancer and addiction despite a federal judge’s order to release grant money."

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.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

200 million dollars of waste.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

Happening now: protesters are outside the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago this evening. People are in line to see House of Reps Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for an event tonight promoting his recently released book. Crowd chanting at them, "we don't need a book tour!"

This.

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

With over ten years of service spanning five administrations, Amy Paris was dismissed on February 14, a casualty of tRump’s mass firings. “They said it was performance,” she explained. “I have clear proof I was one of the top performers in the entire federal government.” 19thnews.org/2025/02/amy-...

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous cars—which Elon Musk claims are the future of Tesla—is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

Truth

I don’t often feel rage. That said, I’ve been getting pretty damn close, watching one of the few truly warrior like heroes in the world of leadership…Zelensky…being rat fucked by two of the biggest pieces of shit on the planet.

EXCLUSIVE: A federal worker at the EPA sent an incredible email to Administrator Lee Zeldin. He's refused to stay silent, and has asked me to share the email - and his name - with the public. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

NEW: Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%. https://propub.li/43487Tj

I did an event in IN a few weeks ago where I said that on 1/6/21 Mike Pence saved the country (for now) by being one of very very few who stood by his principles under maximum threat.

If you can't flip the narrative that REPUBLICANS are causing harm to the American people.. instead of blaming Dems because "they aren't doing anything".. you need to step aside. DEMS fought against this tide for decades. Time to hold the MAGAT party accountable.

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

Yo DOGE, Found your waste! 👇🏼

Senate Republicans are about to try to advance a budget resolution that clears the way to cut taxes for Trump’s billionaire buddies. Democrats are going to expose how Republicans want to gut health care, jobs, public safety, housing, education, and national security.
