So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

Tom Krause is Dept of Treasury fiscal assistant secretary. Yet will simultaneously continue as CEO of Cloud Software Group. So he's now in charge of the most sensitive govt payment system AND a company w millions worth of federal contracts. Welcome to fascism. www.wired.com/story/krause...

Afraid for his life? Wimp that does not belong in our federal buildings!

DOGE is not about waste and fraud. This is about gutting government services without any evaluation of their need. Americans have decided to have and fund an effective National Park Service. Trump and Musk are trampling on democracy to do whatever the hell they want.

Think about this and please make sure to "repost" it so that everybody understands what's really going on. Don't just "like" it -- "repost" it -- this is important!

A team of astrophysicists have found flares of light in Sagittarius A*, a supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way.

I guess Trump’s Special Envoy doesn’t agree with him that Zelensky is a corrupt, incompetent dictator. Pretty schizophrenic foreign policy.

Yipes!!

Trump teaming up with Putin now to carve up Europe is like in Aug 1939 when Hitler agreed with Soviet leader Joseph Stalin on carving up Poland and the Baltics into German and Russian spheres of influence. World War II began just one week after the deal when both nations attacked Poland.

To my friends in Congress (on both sides of the isle): Take a moment to be angry about this statement that Trump seems to have plagiarized from Putin. Then remember you have power and do something. Here are some options. 1/

😂😂😂

Trump January: “Elon Musk Will Heading DOGE” Trump February: “Elon Musk Is Not In Charge Of DOGE & Has No Authority” Trump Today: “I Chose Elon Musk To Head DOGE” So The Trump Admin Lied On Their Affidavit To Judge Chutkan. Gotcha!

Measles is surging, and the guy in charge of public health is RFK Jr.—an anti-vaxxer. Meanwhile, Trump is gutting the CDC, FDA, and NIH. Watch and share this. Know the symptoms. Because the people who should be protecting and informing us just got fired. (Video 🧵)

And hypocritical based on his feelings of Castro and Putin is no different or worse.

@repjasmine.bsky.social ? Congress did not approve the budget for these employees or DOGE. How is it that we can get them out of our business?

Cruelty is the agenda. The DOJ forced the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children to remove all LGBTQ language & transgender kids from its site & documents. Notice the lack of reporting by MSM yet again.

"working to swiftly rectify the situation..." www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

No one should be demanding that wartime hero President Zelenskyy hold elections in Ukraine until they demand that actual elections be held in Russia seeing as murderous Dictator Putin has been in power for over 25 years since he literally murders all of his opponents. Fuck MAGA.

OMG they did it AGAIN! Elon Musk and Donald Trump fired USDA experts working on the bird flu - you know, the reason why eggs are $10 a dozen - and have now realized their mistake and are desperately trying to hire them back. First nuclear safety workers, now this. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

You forgot Missouri!

Bullshit!

Is he closing Bush, Clinton, Carter, etc libraries?

Musk stands to gain significantly from Trump’s presidency in multiple ways—from shutting down investigations into the exploitation of billions of workers to using intimidation tactics against political leaders. This alliance is nothing short of dangerous.

“Paid” into the system is more accurate.

Hello Congress, do something!

Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post would not run this ad. This is the power of oligarchy.

Trump uses Oval Office to hasten major golf merger — and further enrich his family: report www.rawstory.com/pga-tour/

That’s the problem. We’ve been standing by for too long.

The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

Reagan associate counsel: Congress has not authorized this radical overhaul, and the protocols of the Constitution do not permit statutorily mandated agencies and programs to be transformed—or reorganized out of existence—without congressional authorization. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Even if one or two of these items gets into play women will lose their freedom of choice to have a job, have a family, have their own financial security….etc

To hell with Trump and Musk. Our grandparents and great grandparents and half a billion Americans didn't die defeating fascism, just so that we could allow a felon-rapist mobster and an unelected racist billionaire bring it here without opposition. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/its-time-t...

Great speech

Ooops, sorry, didn’t mean to drop this. 😏

RED STATES: Remember this when you’re on your own… Trump said: “If it was up to me … I’d end (FEMA) right now.” He wants your state to handle disasters alone—no federal help.

Excellent! Need that chart!
