Americans who serve in the military are the best of us. It takes courage, bravery, and sacrifice. Banning transgender servicemembers has nothing to do with national defense. They love this country and contribute just like every soldier — and they are not alone in this fight.

US pushes nations facing tariffs to approve Musk’s Starlink. Wow the corruption. An internal State Department memo lays it bare:“As the government of Lesotho negotiates a trade deal with the United States, it hopes that licensing Starlink demonstrates goodwill and intent to welcome U.S. businesses.”

Trump’s FAA has failed to show they’re up to the task of keeping people safe. On April 28, air traffic controllers overseeing Newark lost all communications with planes in the air for up to 90 seconds risking lives. We need the Inspector General at the FAA to conduct a full investigation.

Does anyone know what happened with the #NEH Public Scholars program for 2025-26? Notification letters were supposed to be sent out April 15, but it seems like that never happened. Was that entire round of applications simply scrubbed without any explanation whatsoever?

Trump said no exceptions to his tariffs. Then, Apple CEO Tim Cook went to work “behind the scenes” — and poof, iPhone tariffs are cut. That looks like corruption, plain and simple. I’m pressing Trump officials — and Tim Cook himself — for answers. www.youtube.com/shorts/-RZH8...

Immigrants falsely labeled as deceased by the Social Security Administration are showing up at field offices with documents proving they are alive, prompting staff to reinstate nearly three dozen individuals over the past week. These reversals follow efforts by the DHS and Elon Musk’s DOGE Service

Trump said he wanted to take away due process for immigrants–something conservative judges think is unconstitutional—and he did. He says he wants to ship American citizens to foreign countries, believe him and do not wait to speak out against his abhorrent actions.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are effectively cutting Social Security benefits. After Trump promised “not to touch” Social Security, they are making people suffer. It’s wrong — and we’re fighting back.

Assuming this post today is aimed at us. The Trump admin changed the rules to make it easier to replace career federal employees with political loyalists. If you’re not alarmed by Trump’s post, you should be. This isn’t about policy it’s about control. It’s “do as I say, or you’re replaced.”

Fascism is when a leader uses the power of the state to control or coerce private institutions—like Trump has tried to do with universities and private companies such as Apple. His attempts to dictate what schools can teach or how businesses should operate are textbook authoritarianism. Harvard

Americans pay into Social Security their entire working lives to live comfortably as seniors— But Elon Musk and Donald Trump don't care. Seniors are already seeing delays, and DOGE is teeing up more cuts to cripple the program. They're playing with YOUR money and YOUR future.

DOGE was never about savings. It was always about surveillance. Over the weekend, we released new details—and now whistleblowers are coming forward too. What’s becoming clearer by the day: DOGE isn’t a government efficiency program. It’s a data weapon aimed at the American people.
