Newsmax host claims of DOGE that "the numbers do not lie" and then immediately lies about the numbers

🇺🇦🇺🇸👀

Fuck Putin. Fuck trump. I stand with Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇸.

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."

We’re cooked

with the presidential seal behind him, Trump does a promo for his properties in Florida

I heard Gov. Abbott asked them to steer clear of the state until he gets to watch some kids die. Man, there's nothing he loves more than watching kids die. School shootings, barbed-wire migrant crossings, power outages, measles, whatever. It doesn't matter how, as long as some kids die.

Sølve Rydland om viktigheten av samhold. Glem «kulturkrigerne», demp motsetninger, samle oss om et sterkere Forsvar, opptrapping av støtte til Ukraina og samhold i og med Europa. Nå er Norge truet, og vi må oppføre oss deretter. www.ba.no/5-8-2921400

No words… again…

Put aside the nastiness of this post, & the way in he attacks Zelenskyy as a dictator but says not a word about his pal Putin, & just focus on the way it is written: would you hire this weird person to work for you? Would you trust this odd person to teach your kid in school?

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.

Trump gives a shoutout to Saudi Arabia, which he describes as "a special place with special leaders"

"In less than a month’s time, Rubio has presided over America’s willing abdication as leader of the free world. It’s a shameful legacy that cuts against everything he once proclaimed to stand for."

This is a NYT headline. The body of the piece does talk about how Trump’s post was “littered with falsehoods.” But the headline just repeats false and dangerous Russian talking points. People often don’t read past the headlines. This is how misinformation spreads, and legacy media is complicit.

I am begging the media to put the focus on what was cut, and what the effects of those cuts are likely to be, rather than some nebulous topline number that implies to people that they’re actually doing what they say they are their “savings” will cost us far more than this, in money and terror

This is just to say I have fired the bureaucrats throughout your government Even the ones that were probably keeping planes in the air Forgive me I am not very smart So efficiency Much savings

if anyone says the phrase "run the government like a business" within earshot ever again I am going to turn into the Joker

This is a concentration camp. They are describing a concentration camp.

Congrats, America. We're now on Putin's side.

Never forget, never forgive

But but RFK Jr. promised he woudn’t do crazy things! Pinky swear and all!

That’s how you write a headline, people.

Jesus christ, was I giving him ideas?

It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

They don't want to teach history so they can repeat it.

And fully half of it is a humiliating error where they mistake the value of a contract by 1000x confusing 8 million with 8 BILLION

It’s not a “savings” if you’re getting fewer services in exchange. I’m still paying the same taxes!

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

Van Hollen: "Can you imagine FDR in the middle of WW2 saying to Churchill, 'you know, we're not going to continue to help you until you turn over half of your coal and mineral reserves.' That's not how you behave when you want to support a friend who's under attack by an authoritarian like Putin."

🇺🇸🤔 Michael McFaul: "Trump's team allegedly has offered Putin (1) Ukrainian territory, (2) no NATO membership for Ukraine, (3) no US soldiers in Ukraine, (4) the withdrawal of US soldiers from Europe, including from frontline states, and (5) sanctions relief. Putin's return offer -- nothing."

I don’t know what to call this but flamboyantly evil.

I'm watching Canadian officials hold a presser on the Toronto plane crash and remarkably they're not blaming DEI or recklessly speculating about causes. They could never cut it down here in Trumplandia.

The other website is pretty much done

Math is hard

i will become a total shill for whichever politician decides to become the joe mccarthy of rooting out silicon valley ideology and influence

Because you are sucking up to the owner of your newspaper?

Richest man in the world muses about Jailing reporters, nothing to see here

Some don’t even realize they’re actually eating all the faces.

Go ahead. Let the people see you for what you are.

Imprisoning journalists is fine when we do it

Maybe I wasn’t clear about this. I wanted more egg and no plane crash, not many plane crash and no egg.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

An important point to keep in mind.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.
