Sweet Baby Jesus, Why did you take our brains from us? Was it the Trump bibles? Was it worshiping a golden oaf? How can we make amends?

Updated: The DOGE Fraud Is Coming from Inside the House www.emptywheel.net/2025/02/20/t...

This is 💯 percent him confessing now that he plans to not have elections.

Florida MAGA, you did this to yourselves.

BREAKING: USAID contractors/aid recipients say Secretary Rubio and USAID leader Peter Marocco should be held in civil contempt for violating a court order to lift spending freeze.

OTD in 1939 in Zakopane, Poland the 5th of 7 (!!) Gestapo-NKVD conferences took place, deepening Nazi-Soviet collusion in destroying the Polish state & committing crimes against humanity. Imagine, today, the Kremlin meeting fascists to carve up eastern Europe over their heads..

NEW: Nearly 1,000 career federal prosecutors have penned a letter to salute the bravery of those who stood up to the recent actions of Trump DoJ leadership. One of the signatures belongs to Jack Smith. www.thejusticeconnection.org/wp-content/u...

Attorney General Pam Bondi disbanded an FBI task force investigating foreign influence operations, including those targeting U.S. elections. Additionally, she restricted enforcement actions against individuals who fail to disclose lobbying on behalf of foreign governments.

The CFPB has: -Returned $20B to victims of financial fraud -Cracked down on junk fees -Fought against politically-motivated debanking -Protected veterans from predatory lenders -Protected consumers' data from corporate abuse Oligarchs want to reverse all of this.

Tomorrow in the NYT: Nothing emphasizes the elderly and out-of-touch character of Democratic Party leadership than their reluctance to allow a new generation of white nationalist 19-year-olds to have access to everyone's tax records

🚨OH HELL NO! ‘DOGE appears to have busted their way into the Social Security Administration, forcing the resignation of the acting commissioner, Michelle King, when she resisted their demands to give DOGE access to Agency’s most sensitive government records’. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/doge-...

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who is thoroughly inspired to see the thousands of fired-up Americans who turned out IN EVERY STATE to protest the insane trump executive orders, firings, and policies he's pushing. LET'S FUCKING GO!!!!!!!!🙏💪

Tom Homan can’t find enough illegal immigrants to deport because they fabricated the ‘crisis,’ so now he’s just gonna spend all his time attacking AOC.

Another career federal official has resigned after refusing to give DOGE access to sensitive data.

Oh wow!

When the tariffs take effect in April the entire auto industry will sink into a state of economic chaos. New car sales will come to a screeching halt and the entire bilateral supply chain will collapse. 🫠 Golden Era inbound

Again, Trump fired SBA Inspector General Mike Ware after he found $200 billion in fraud in Trump's COVID programs and returned $40B to the US Treasury. Instead, Trump brought in a bunch of fascist boys who know nothing about accounting. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

It will always be surreal to see Russian assets in our government.

It's all going to start coming into the light. PINO has always been working for RU.

Thank you to everyone who has joined the resistance! Our ranks grow stronger every day.

He's not going to be able to do to UKR what he did to AFG. He's using it to cause a rift in NATO. He wants to make them force us out.

This is quite the screed. Arizona's Attorney General speaks bluntly, describes the extraordinary attacks on our rule-of-law based government, then calls on "every American patriot to stand up, speak out, & defend our democratic processes." Also a good, concise explainer for ppl unaware of the sitch.

A seventh official has resigned due to Trump's interference in the case against Adams Hagan Scotten: "I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me."

Around 20 technologists at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau were fired on Thursday evening, gutting a team that specialized in understanding Big Tech’s entrance into financial products www.theverge.com/policy/61293...

We're literally being "governed" by people who peaked in their sophomore year at high school and became emotionally stunted there.

Oh, hello, red voting residents of the Gulf Coast. We're on our own now when hurricane season starts... you voted for this, you stupid motherfuckers. 🖕🖕🖕. Remember Katrina? Yeah, that'll be fun when another big one hits. 🙄

In light of the news that DOJ leadership is forcing career prosecutors to either dismiss the criminal case against Eric Adams or be fired, it seems like a good time to remind everyone that the judge can refuse to dismiss. That rule exists precisely in order to prevent corrupt dismissals.

Not even hiding the corruption anymore.

Conflict of interest? The State Department’s procurement forecast lists Tesla as the recipient of the largest expected contract, with Marco Rubio’s department planning to purchase $400 million worth of “Armored Tesla” vehicles.

Kleptocracy in full swing.

Pretty damn good framing for Dems

The Trump Economy: Going up ⬆️ Inflation Gas & Grocery prices Housing costs Taxation via tariffs Going down ⬇️ The stock markets Your savings www.cnbc.com/2025/02/11/s...

"Fiscal Responsibility"

We can’t say this enough: When people in Trump‘s orbit deliberately lie about how our constitutional democracy works, they violate the oaths they take to uphold the law. & they violate the trust the American people place in them.

This is just one of thousands of harrowing stories told about the U.S. Government abandoning Americans abroad in the USAID shutdown. This is Benghazi times a million. 1/

Today's a great day for Vladimir Putin. He finally has an asset at the highest level of US intelligence, and he’s laughing. Tulsi Gabbard, known in Russia as "Putin's Girlfriend", is now in charge of our intelligence apparatus. America is being weakened by Trump and his administration.
