DOGE listed $16 billion in contracts it had canceled. But half of the total appears to be erroneous. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/u...

If the Washington Post is watching, THIS is how you do journalism.

Here’s a short list of blue resisters. Retweet, follow,like at your discretion!!

Since I’ve been getting this a lot - if you feel like supporting me by buying a jersey or something, I would rather you make a donation to Trans Lifeline or The Trevor Project www.thetrevorproject.org

These guys should _not_ be showing up in the "Quiet Posters" feed.

What may be legal, illegal or in a gray area. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/u...

"... finally got that government job, I think, about six months ago –– well, he's laid off now. So his kid, his wife, all of that promise, it's totally gone."

Nothing like making it harder to get a new or updated SS card.

Imagine my surprise when Babymama #4 showed up looking for her loot from the Ketamine King.

He’s just a dangerous individual when it comes to public health. It’s dangerous to have a guy who’s led [the vaccine skepticism] movement being the head of this agency, the mouthpiece of the U.S. government when it comes to public health. time.com/7222309/rfk-...

Unfortunately I won’t be to DC in time, but this rally for Ukraine is happening in Lincoln memorial. Attend if you can and Slava Ukrainii!

Let me know if you agree Trump deserves to be called out! 💙

DOGE technologists Edward Coristine—the 19-year-old known online as “Big Balls”—and Kyle Schutt are now listed as staff at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.

SCOOP: New Social Security chief was being investigated for leaking data to DOGE when Musk team tapped him. Sr officials placed him on paid leave while probing whether he may have violated privacy & tax laws, WaPo's Lisa Rein reports. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

How many poor people would be helped by $200M ? These people are worse than deplorable.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Karoline Leavitt says Trump doesn't care about lawsuits or protests- on other words, he doesn't care if the people support his actions or if they are legal. #TrumpIsAFascist www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

The FT says bankers/biz executives are having 2nd thoughts. Serves 'em right. Eager for tax cuts, deregulation, and a revival in the M&A deals that enrich them (aka "animal spirits") they ignored the obvious: he would bring chaos, tariffs, and vengeful democratic erosion. www.ft.com/content/a7c9...

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social: "The question is can you work with Republicans in the middle of a constitutional crisis when democracy is on the line? And right now, I think that this crisis is serious and deepening in its seriousness, that our job #1, #2, and #3 is to save our democracy."

Yesterday ~68 people employed in HHS's Administration for Children & Families early childhood offices were terminated. I'm told Office of Head Start lost ~20% of staff; Office of Child Care lost ~25% These workers process grants for preschools/childcare centers, monitor health/safety issues, etc.

With multiple tariffs looming, farmers who support Trump grow nervous www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

The Trump administration’s mass terminations in the Forest Service and beyond will have dire consequences for Colorado and the Rocky Mountain West. 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Steve Bannon announced: he spoke with Ric Grenell, and the J6 Choir will perform at the Kennedy Center. Yes, this is real. Don’t wish that it were satire?

We live in a God damn asylum 🤷🏻‍♀️🤬

NEW: The Energy Department tried to spin its DOGE-directed firing of nuclear-safety officials as affecting just non-critical staff. But this wasn’t close to true. In fact, one of the officials locked out of his work accounts was the top authority for all nuclear-safety matters in the agency.
