Can someone who's smarter than me figure out exactly how money is being wasted by the first felon-- trips to sporting events golfing trips new contracts for Elon/DOGE spending trips for families members to Europe *stupid ads... and lord only knows what else... If you can do it, thank you.

A MUST-SEE‼️ The PayPal Mafia—Musk, Thiel, Sacks, and Botha—have ties to apartheid South Africa & a hand in US policy and the election. • Elon Musk – Unelected co-president, dismantling the government for his own gain. FUN FACT: His grandfather wanted to scrap democracy for technocrat rule. 🧵

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

I'd rather see all DOGE money go to rehire all the people who lost jobs, contract reneges, etc. #KatiePhangShow @katiephangshow.bsky.social

Judge Abelson of the USDC MD issued a preliminary injunction against the anti-DEI executive orders on Feb 21. His compelling opinion outlines numerous grounds for deeming the EOs unconstitutional, including 1st A freedom of speech. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I know they are being heckled...whether they are being held accountable is another story. My representative stood in front of hundreds of people and misstated, misrepresented, and outright lied to us with no immediate consequences except more booing. Can't wait until the next election.

Our representative, Mr. Bentz, got fried at these town halls. He was booed several times at the one I attended.

OREGON: “The house & senate are totally abdicating their responsibilities.” @RepBentz (R) is the latest Republican to get confronted by constituents at a town hall. (Tennessee folks— town halls are these things where senators/reps show up and you can talk to them in person)

BRAVO to Maine Governor Janet Mills for slapping petty tyrant trump in the face with her calmly defiant "see you in court." THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE. 🔥🔥🔥

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

I wish more governors would do the same. Maybe when their constituents start to lose SS, Medicare, Medicaid, veterans benefits, SNAP, food stamps, and all the other "socialist" things that help keep them alive, governors will wake up and smell the roses (or the bull💩).

When the wreckage and dust of what these people are doing to our country has settled and the people have finally had enough to throw these jackals out of office, we will never forget the people who enabled it, despite their protestations they weren’t willing accomplices. Never.

1 yr after a WY man shocked the world by running over a wolf in his snowmobile, carrying her into a rural bar and letting friends snap selfies with her before killing her, state lawmakers are still refusing to ban "whacking" outright. A majority of WY residents want to ban the practice.

💥 Apple is upholding its commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). Despite attack from right-wing anti-DEI shareholder activists -- the same anti-DEI group that targeted Costco. And just like Costco, look for Apple shareholders to tell anti-DEI activists to take a hike on Feb 25.

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?
