“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Musk the unelected bureaucrat is conning America. www.youtube.com/watch?v=j73q...

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

American medical association is doing daily updates on their YouTube channel,since our govetment seems to be silent about it. Please share...

Dear media, No, Trump isn’t “signaling” that he “might” ignore the courts. He. Is. Ignoring. The. Fucking. Courts. The end. Do your damn job.

Accurate.

To the good people of the rest of the world, I am reaching out to you to say this: Focus your anger on Donald Trump. While his title might suggest it, he does NOT represent the United States of America. The election results are misleading. I would estimate at least 1/3 of Republicans do NOT 1/2

WINNING. WHAT A DUMBASS.

Some perspective on the USAID situation from someone who once worked at the department. How reality differs from Elon’s Twitter feed, US personnel is being put in danger, and why Russia is enjoying the show. Thread: t.co/z1JgdhyVpk

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

This is grossly irresponsible reporting by the AP. What’s being offered is not a buyout. The deal is if you agree to resign in September you can continue working remotely until then. There is no buyout or severance.

This is perfection.

So Target got real comfy thinking us millennial moms won’t take our basic girl bits to Costco & Aldi after they cut DEI programs to satisfy the new administration. Big mistake. Huge.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

What would Martin Luther King Jr. urge us to do as we celebrate his life and legacy? Press On.

We live in a post-shame world.

"[Elon] knows those computers better than anybody. Those vote counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. IS THAT A FUCKING CONFESSION??? h/t: @acyn.bsky.social

‘Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.’ — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. On #MLKDay, we honor his legacy by choosing love over hate, justice over injustice, and hope over fear.

Joe Biden: Now it's your turn to stand guard. May you all be the keeper of the flame. May you keep the faith. I love America. You love it, too. God bless you all. May God protect our troops. Thank you for this great honor.

Wisdom from his many years.

Pretty damn spot-on, don’t you think?

Land doesn’t vote. Stop pretending it does.

For people who saw the clip of me advocating for a new opposition movement and are asking for more info, here is the piece I wrote laying it out. I hope you read, share and act. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/buil...

🚨This is AMAZING: Watch this elderly woman DESTROY a young right wing YouTuber on his weak sauce immigration talking points. Absolutely brilliant. H/T @thetnholler.bsky.social

Sickening hypocrisy.

"We cannot continue to participate in the social network feed of a man who proclaims the death of the media and therefore of journalists... X is a platform that no longer serves the public interest at all, but the special ideological and financial interests of its owner and his political allies"

If you’re afraid that books might change someone’s thinking, you’re not afraid of books, you’re afraid of thinking.

Speaks volumes.
