This gets my vote for tweet/post of the year. This is a RED ALERT post. This is exactly why he’s doing it.

um i've met some of Boston and i would advise against that sir

Did you know? Republicans want to cut $880 BILLION from Medicaid to pay for a massive $4.5 TRILLION tax cut for their billionaire donors! Let that sink in for a minute…

If you have a: - Credit card - Checking account - Savings account - Mortgage - Car loan - Student loan - Venmo account The fight to protect the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is your fight.

DOGE’s expenses have risen above 40 million, with weekly costs now exceeding 10 million. We will release an updated DOGE staff list soon.

When these inaccuracies were first found, they could be called "mistakes." When DOGE took efforts to cover them up, they can no longer be considered "mistakes."

Don’t be a nice person…

Yup

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

“the United States is not a startup. The federal government exists to do all of the things that are definitionally not profitable, that serve the public good rather than protect investor profits. (The vast majority of startups also fail, something the United States cannot afford to do.)”

Everyone needs to see this. Be ready to deny access, even if you don't know any immigrants. Let them waste time and you might save a family somewhere else. #Disobey #blue #fotus #FBR #immigrants #TruthWarriors #theresistance #resist #FBPE #FuckICE #SaveOurDemocracy #sanctuary #organize #fucktrump

All these bros conveniently forgetting that the U.S. government was instrumental in creating the Internet through NSF grants to universities and research hubs through the 80s and 90s.

“Accidentally”.

Thinking about DOGE, consider this question, would you let a 22 year old do your taxes, or manage your personal investments? Probably not. If not, why would you trust a bunch of them to run the IRS or the Social Security Administration or even suggest how to run it better?

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

NEW: NSF confirmed that they fired 168 employees today, out of their staff of ~1,500 feds. This includes some people who'd finished their 1-year probationary periods, which were extended to 2-years last month without explanation. More to come.

I hear rumors in the DC metro area Marriott is telling staff dealing with AV equipment to start looking for another job within a month, while they cut their hours to 20 hrs per week. It's because most of the hotel business are meetings related to gov. Which is being canceled. #SlowKnockOnEffect

Border czar Tom Homan went on TV Monday, bumbling and sweating like a madman to keep his feud going with AOC. AOC responded with this fire: “This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing.” More here:
