Awesome - $350B to kick people out who contribute $76B just in taxes to the economy. Makes perfect sense.

Guess what? Members of Congress are in a better position to protect themselves than all of us who get death threats regularly. They're afraid of losing their positions. If you're too afraid of losing votes to defend the Constitution, then you shouldn't be in Congress.

Well it was nice to like Hochul for like 24 hours, but this seems like it’s going to be ripe for abuse in a way that just kicking Adams out wouldn’t have been. Can you imagine if Cuomo had significant oversight over BdB? Can you imagine if Gov. Lee Zeldin happens? It’s a nightmare!

Federal workers are already posting direct accounts of their firings on TikTok, garnering viral sympathy and support. Why Dems are not taking advantage of these already public, very personal profiles is indeed baffling, see this thread: www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8YVxTUq/

Elon Musk fired a disabled Veteran with 3 tours of duty from his job serving other Veterans at the VA. Elon’s companies get billions from defense contracts. He’s happy to profit off our servicemembers - but when he can no longer make money off them, he kicks them to the curb.

$500 million worth of food intended for relief efforts is at risk of spoiling, given Trump’s freeze on shipping food assistance “They get the one starving kid in Sudan that isn’t going to have a USAID bottle, and they make everything DOGE has done about the starving kid in Sudan,” WH official said.

Really good article on why Elon Musk is vulnerable to a sustained boycott of Tesla. They worked against apartheid. Surely they could work against one South African. slate.com/business/202...

Zelensky is putting a brave face on what is shaping up to be a disastrous & dangerous policy shift. So far, the policy of the U.S., -no Ukraine’s in NATO -Ukraine’s security Europe’s problem -It’s okay for Russia to use military force to violate sovereignty, take territory… NATO has to be terrified

BREAKING: White House confirms it has lost at least 12 cases, at least temporarily, since becoming president. Acting illegally and losing cases is a hallmark of Trump.

in what meaningful way can we say that the constitution is in effect when an unelected and unaccountable billionaire is wielding state power to unilaterally cancel congressional appropriations?

If Elon Musk is looking for wasteful government spending, he should start with Pete Hegseth. Hegseth approved a $49,000 ‘emergency’ paint job on his government home—while critical services are being cut. But sure, tell us more about fiscal responsibility. MORE: www.forbes.com/sites/antoni...

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.
