So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

Can someone please explain to me how it is possible that the very same red-white-and-holy-shit-they’re-stupids flying “don’t tread on me” flags are also like “hell yeah he’s our motherfucking king! Cry harder Libs!” Explain this to me like I’m 5 and not smarter than all of them combined. Please.

I try to keep the language on here… PG… but in this case i can’t. You, Trump, are a traitorous piece of shit

SWAN: DOGE and SpaceX employees are now working directly at the FAA and DoD, agencies that have billions of dollars of contracts with Musk's companies or regulate them. How is that not a conflict of interest? TRUMP: Well I mean, I'm just hearing about it

A quote today from the great Julia Davis. If Europe hasn’t figured out that Trump is bringing our 80-year collective security friendship, which has served us all well, to an abrupt and catastrophic end, you know it today. You are on your own. Act accordingly.

Congressmen when they are asked if they will cut THEIR budgets and lay off staff as well:

Oh my fucking God.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Fucking insanity.

NEW: The DoJ prosecutor in Manhattan just resigned in protest after being ordered to drop the Eric Adams case. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/n...

It certainly will be interesting to see what concessions Trump is able to get from Putin. So far, it sounds like the dictator who invaded our ally gets everything he wants and gives up nothing. We will see.

The Trump Administration is breaking the law. Period. Never stop showing this. They are not “implementing unpopular policies” or “auditing the government.” They are breaking the law and ignoring the courts.

Quietly, Hegseth announces a major policy change, ruling out Ukraine joining NATO. This is a capitulation to Putin, justifying his wars of aggression starting with Georgia in 2008. This will embolden Putin & undermine the interests of peace in Ukraine & Europe. A major blow to US national security.

Democrats: God Bless Elizabeth Warren, but can we put someone else with righteous anger out there as a spokesperson. Her display of anger just doesn’t do anything except convey to MAGA that Democrats are weak.

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen. Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !” globalnews.ca/news/9793403...

And who determines what the executive’s legitimate power is, JD? The executive?! Come on. Let me put it in terms you’d get. It’s like football. The judges are the refs, and they say whether you’re in or out of bounds. And Musk is waaaaaay out of bounds with these takeovers of our systems.

Good point.

This seems important

NOTABLE: DOJ determines that a Jan. 6 defendant who was convicted of a firearm offense based on a search of his home must return to prison because the firearm charge is NOT covered by Trump's pardon. This was a point of contention among J6ers. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

a nice reminder to the press that there is nothing you can do to pacify these people or buy yourself leniency

This is what happens when 49% of the voters in this country are stupid enough to make a demented psychopath president. bsky.app/profile/atru...

These are the clowns Congress refuses to stop.
