An NPR review of new data added to DOGE's "wall of receipts" finds the group quietly changed previous errors, added new ones and still has little verified savings to show for its work.

my father, retired white engineer who has lived in oklahoma 45 years: “they should deport the son of a bitch to south africa and then south africa should bury him under a prison”, in case you wondered what the medicare set thinks

It just dawned on me that the relationship between Donald Trump and Elon Musk is suspiciously close—and closed—in the same way the relationship between Trump and Putin is. Then I remembered the WSJ report revealing Musk speaks with Putin regularly. Then I understood everything.

They get religion on their way out of the door.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.

The real heroes in this fight so far have been the men and women attending those Town Hall meetings!🔥

The stable genius has a cunning plan. Align with a country committed to destroying your way of life. Should work out great! tomorrowsaffairs.com/does-trump-e...

“The president of the United States ambushed a loyal ally, presumably so that he can soon make a deal with the dictator of Russia to sell out a European nation fighting for its very existence.” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

“Concerning.” Note how the sycophants are copying Elon Musk Twitter posturing now. No, the U.S. Attorney commenting in public on anonymous accusations of federal crimes is not normal or ethical.

Measles guidance provided by RFK Jr. includes information about administering vitamin A to measles patients, so I wanted to share this helpful graphic from the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases. Vitamin A alone does not prevent measles. Vaccination does. @nfidvaccines.bsky.social

The reason this is such a big deal is that Trumpism, an ideology of pathological insecurity and bullying, requires you to submit. When you don’t submit, it calls everything about them into question, and they can’t handle that. So don’t submit. Defy the fascist scum.

🚨 Get to work #resisters linktr.ee/revolution2025

18F staffers- who were summarily fired en masse overnight- issue statement expressing shock, bewilderment: "18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated."

NOTE: The opponents of DEI are purging anyone who is not a white man from military leadership This is not about merit; it’s about normalizing racism and misogyny

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

Democratic Congressman Tom Suozzi just received a huge standing ovation in a Trump +5 Congressional District at Hofstra University after talking about how despicable Trump‘s behavior was in the Oval Office with Zelensky. Americans are furious.

Times Square 🇺🇸🇺🇦✊

KYIV INDEPENDENT: “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.” kyivindependent.com/editorial-a-...

And to think we could have had a sane, serious government run by an intelligent person who would have acted in the best interests of Americans, and not Vladimir Putin.

Interesting 🧵 by @peark.es about Atlanta Fed's real time tracker projecting a contraction

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.

Volodymyr Zelensky's Oval Office visit ended early when Donald Trump and JD Vance began angrily yelling at him. Here's why women like Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton are too emotional to be president.

Dusting off my old Oxford English Dictionary and consulting carefully, I could not find "attack friends and submit to enemies" as a definition of the word "strength."

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

Zelenskyy: "When they, for example say that Ukraine is almost destroyed, that our soldiers run away, that they are not heroes, that the president is a dictator, what is the reaction? It's not about me. The reaction is, where is the friendship between Ukraine and the US?"

Donald Trump, from his golden comfort, claims Zelensky isn’t ready for peace while Ukraine counts tens of thousands dead, hundreds of thousands wounded, and cities in ruins. A grotesque insult to the victims—history will remember who sided with the oppressors.

"Transparency."

So likely the world’s first Trillionaire Elon, who received $36 Billion in govt subsidies and contracts to generate his wealth, is telling the people who built this country what they can live without, as he giggles with his chain saw. Something ain’t right

Congrats, everyone—the Elon boycott is working! Reports indicate that Tesla inventory is swelling, especially with Cybertrucks piling up outside their factory. Keep the boycott going, and don’t forget—today is the Economic Blackout!

9yrs ago, his presidential campaign colluded with Putin. 7yrs ago, he sided with Putin in Helsinki and gave his middle finger to our intelligence community. 6yrs ago, he was impeached for extorting Zelensky. None of this is surprising. Trump’s with Putin. He has always been.

The enemy (or at least the soulless idiots) are inside the gate. therecord.media/hegseth-orde...

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Watching Putin’s little stooges try to bully Zelenskyy in our goddamned White House is pretty repulsive.

Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦

Republican leadership is telling members to cancel town halls—they're running scared. Keep up the pressure. They can’t hide from the American people.

This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.

The half-smile reveals this truth: the answer resides not in excess or lack, but in the balance between.

Anyone want to bet that no one looks at the email responses that Musk asked for ? It requires too much manpower and organization. Even w/AI He will hold them in the event he has an interaction with someone. If so, he can look up their response or lack of, and use it as cause for action.

Anyway buffoonish hack Ed Martin probably won’t approve charges against right-wingers. So if you’re in DC, deciding what level of force to use against a Trumpist, consider they can kill or assault or rape you without being charged or with the promise of a pardon, and act accordingly.

I also found $2 billion in gold bars linked to Stacy Abrams, but you don't see me bragging about it

Breaking News: Scientists from the University of the Basque Country have discovered a groundbreaking molecule, WIN55.212-2, that reverses early cognitive damage caused by Alzheimer’s disease.

'Tis truly a new dawn. Never thought I'd live to see this day. "Washington breaks with Europe, refusing to condemn Moscow on third anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The U.S. voted alongside North Korea, Belarus and other Moscow-friendly countries at the United Nations." 💔🇺🇸⚠️

Your regular reminder that the US air & water pollution laws passed in the 60s & 70s -- and the elaborate federal bureaucracy created to administer them -- constitute one of the most successful gov't interventions in history. WILDLY successful. The envy of the world.
