Republicans pulled their budget vote—surprise! They’re too busy fighting each other to govern. They might be split on the math, but they agree on this: cutting services for working families & rewarding billionaires. This ain’t a budget—it’s a blueprint to rob the people.

The Trump admin is dismantling Freedom of Information Act offices. Then the offices send out emails like, “Hello, the FOIA office has been placed on admin leave and is unable to respond to any emails.” The lengths this admin will go to ensure zero transparency with the American people is astounding.

Oregonians showed up yesterday to send the powerful message to Trump that we are speaking up and pushing back. There's a long road ahead, but cracks are starting to form in their attack on America. Huge thanks to everyone who showed up to push the pendulum back to a better America.

Simply believing that our leaders will do what is right is irresponsible now. Trusting that everything will work out simply because it always tended work out in the past is a fool's delusion. . johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/no-its-not...

After we published a public audit on Saturday, Elon Musk’s DOGE deleted hundreds more claims from its mistake-plagued “wall of receipts,” wiping out an additional $4 billion in so-called savings that the group had claimed to secure for U.S. taxpayers.

DOGE claimed to save $8 billion. Then reality proved it was $8 million. Then they just tried to funnel $400 million into Elon’s pockets. So much for ‘efficiency.’

Remember when the WH insisted that global HIV prevention & treatment was exempt from the freeze? When it seemed MAYBE they understood that cutting off medicine could put the entire planet at risk of drug resistant HIV strains? Wrong. Elon Musk’s interns were simply shutting payments off manually.

Por cierto, ¿por qué un empleado que no es gubernamental accede a datos confidenciales y nadie parece impedírselo? ¿Dónde está la indignación? ¿Dónde está el liderazgo demócrata? Debemos proteger nuestros sistemas, NO nuestras fronteras.

BTW why is non government employee accessing sensitive data & no one seems to be stopping him? Where are the outrage? Where is the Dem leadership? We must secure our systems NOT borders.
