Hundreds of NOAA employees are being fired by Trump and DOGE. The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US. A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans. Again, this isn't about efficiency.

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.

Musk claims he discovered that millions of dead people have been paid trillions of dollars in social security money, but Mike Johnson had the House take the week off instead of investigating this extremely serious allegation. If this is true, why are House Rs taking a week off?

Elon Musk is trying to get all of our personal data from the IRS. To go after opponents. To make profits for himself. For who knows what else. This is a huge scandal. And we need to be shouting it from the rooftops.

After judge shopping every issue from DACA to the Affordable Care Act to abortion—and being granted nationwide injunctions—the GOP is currently telling Trump to ignore the judiciary. Rule of law party, my ass.

Last year CBP seized a whopping 20 kilograms of fentanyl coming into the USA from Canada, as opposed to 10,000 kilograms coming in from Mexico. But Trump wants Canada to put 10,000 soldiers on the northern border to stop the "flow". I get the feeling he's more concerned about all of us leaving.

Prices are about to shoot through the roof because Trump decided to talk out of his ass about making Canada a state and the Mexican President told him to fuck off. That's it. Don't dare fucking cry or blame Biden for any of it. This is the Republican recession.

A Dem Senator should have brought up RFK Jrs past statements on the NRA, and asked him if he will push for the CDC studying and expanding the science of guns in society as a public health issue. While that should happen, that would make the GOP senators pucker their assholes. We need him blocked.

I know you hate this advice. I know you hear it all the time, but for gods sake you need to be calling your congressperson. Now. Today. If you have a GOP representative, you need to call and ask if they approve of stripping congress of its constitutional authority. If they like being powerless.

I used to work for an elected official as the person who answered their emails. I can tell you from personal experience, if even twenty or thirty people all call an official in a day, they start panicking. This stuff does help.

Trump posted his lie about “turning on the water” at 11:12 PM last night and CA responded with the facts less than two hours later. Can most other Democrats PLEASE learn from this? At SOME POINT? It isn’t 1996. Calling a press conference days later is USELESS. Rapid react!
