They learned something from their first term. The only thing that stops a bad guy with a grift is a good guy with principles. So this time they're firing all the good guys with principles.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

For years we had to endure listening to Republicans sanctimoniously whine about the Constitution. Now they all fully back the most unconstitutional presidency in US history. Everything he does is an assault on the Constitution. Our freedom democracy and constitution are under attack by these people

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

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.

Dear business owners that voted for Trump, You could have had $50K in capital and a robust SBA. Instead, DOGE is cancelling all your government contracts and putting you out of business so he can have the contracts for himself.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

I would just like to point out that it's neither liberal nor leftist to want companies not to be able to scam consumers with impunity. It's also not liberal to prefer that banks can't steal people's life savings. People who never vote and call themselves "apolitical" enjoy these protections.

The daily chaos we're seeing, planes dropping out of the sky and nuclear weapons officials being fired, measles outbreaks, is all on trump -- the guy who ran to be in fucking charge. There are unqualified people at every position he nominated, so things will get MUCH worse. We're only 28 days in.

The guy who racked up almost $8T in debt during his first term has no interest in paying it down. The federal purge underway is to allow for oligarchs to make trillions in privatization and run roughshod in a deregulated landscape. Remember that in an oligarchy, everything is run by the oligarchs.

Trump wants to extend his tax cuts for rich individuals, which would add $4.6T to the deficit. But he wants to go even further, cutting the corporate tax rate to 15%. It's yet another absolutely shameless giveaway.

Let me speak to the DOGE audit language. Many people who work in both the Treasury and specifically the IRS are CPAs. Most audit firms hire CPAs. A 19yo coder has absolutely no idea how to accurately identify waste or fraud. Calling what DOGE is doing as a audit, is a flat out lie.

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

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.
