Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

Glacier National Park and Yellowstone National Park are HUGE moneymakers for Montana’s economy. Without park services the Montana legislature will have to figure out how to manage them. Is this all part of their plan to make our parks privately owned???

JD Vance owns AcreTrader, an app that lets wealthy—often foreign—investors buy up U.S. farmland. Guess who’s deliberately tanking farm economies so JD and his billionaire tech buddies can scoop it up for pennies. civileats.com/2024/09/18/j...

JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Musk & Trump fired a disabled Army vet, Luke Graziani, who is a father of four, working at the Bronx Veterans Affairs hospital. "[Writing to the VA secretary], he asked for his job back: 'This can’t be how my service to my country ends.' As of Monday, Collins had not replied."

NEW: A government employee for Notify. gov, a system used by agencies to send mass texts to the public, has resigned in protest after an Elon Musk ally demanded root access to it. They said the system contains the public's phone numbers & private info: www.404media.co/musk-ally-de...

If RFK Jr. actually cared about medication safety he would have worked to empower the FDA. Instead he is gutting the FDA and proposing that untested therapies be available (sold - it all comes down to profiting off their positions of power) to the public with no protections in place.

New from 404 Media: a Musk ally has demanded administrative access to Notify.gov, a system that lets the government text the public. The access would give them large swathes of the publics' personal data too. A worker has resigned in protest rather than give access www.404media.co/musk-ally-de...

Just returned from Portugal where most of the lovely people spoke English in addition to their native Portuguese, and often fluidly switched between French, Spanish, English, & Portuguese. We truly are the most ignorant nation, and then we claim our English only attitude as a point of pride. 🙄

This is very bad. Expect many more improper probes in DC, where J6 fan Ed Martin is the interim U.S. Attorney and just got nominated for a full term. And expect it at the FBI level, nationwide, if Kash Patel is confirmed.

The U.S. is meeting with Russia about the future of Ukraine without any Ukrainian officials present. It's a rejection of the concept of self-determination by free people. All Americans should be ashamed by this.

Happy Presidents’ Day! Let’s aim for 100 weird facts about presidents, presidential elections, and maybe even vice presidents. 1. Lincoln and Washington are — as far as I know — the only two presidents to have been sculpted topless. (But please send others if they exist!)

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.

I’m begging Democrats to stop talking about tax breaks for billionaires and the price of eggs! They are firing Air Traffic Controllers, stranding Americans in hostile countries, and getting ready to download our data from the IRS. No one is sitting around thinking “I’m worried about the deficit!”

This is the way… “The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.” With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.
