Please don't let Donald see this.

Musk probably thought that meant it was owned by a black person.

Per @rwpusa.bsky.social on another platform: "Attention DOGE: When you mess around in the Treasury Department's records and payment systems, remember that since 1789, self dealing and conflicts of interest at the Treasury Department have been a criminal offense. See Section 8."

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

Bribes. They’re known as bribes.

“National security concerns.”

The market is tanking, Trump just launched a trade war, we told Cyber Command to stand down against Russia, Trump is rolling out a massive crypto scam, and drug dealers have started selling eggs because the profit margin is better. You aren’t distracting us with culture war BS.

Presumably, this government by Truth Social posts will define exactly what an “illegal protest” is, and that definition will not be so broad that it encroaches on free speech guarantees we’ve enjoyed for two centuries.

Just Iowa Republicans trying to ban administration of COVID vaccine

Elon updated DOGE, claiming to have fixed the mistakes we all pointed out. But instead of correcting them, he just added more false claims. He even inflated his so-called “savings” total from $55 billion to $65 billion, when in reality, the actual increase is only from $2 billion to $2.3 billion.

How it started/How it's going

I’m somehow on a Heritage Foundation mailing list (😂) and they sent a survey to see what we think of DOGE. Who wants to offer some m-fing feedback?!? secured.heritage.org/the-heritage... Please share with a friend or a thousand :)

The "free speechers" are now afraid of free speech.

Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

He nails it.

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

Another day (not) at the office.

So in reality, Canada can tell the USA to F*** around and find out. Also - hi again Canada - please be kind to those of us that understand natural resources on our NA continent.

I also want bring attention to the waters USA enjoys thanks to Canada and current treaties: www.ijc.org/en/transboun... And aqua politics: aheadoftheherd.com/water-the-ne...

Thinking about WW II Nazis pushed brightest STEM, art, humanities minds to USA. Silencing, immobilizing, and persecuting people=losing amazing advancements and collective insights for all of humanity. USA - understand our brightest can leave. Oh, hi there Canada.

WATCH: “Elon Musk is out of order.” Chaos as House Oversight Dems tried to subpoena Elon Musk to publicly testify on his dismantling of the government and civil service — but Republicans protected him and blocked it. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DFs2AAW...

It occurs to me we now have two types of fiat in the US: - One is a faulty means of transport made to run by a mechanic 🚘 - The other is a faulty transport of means made to run by a maniac🍊🤡 www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-st...
