If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

His response to this is unreal. First: he says that Republicans had the same complaints when Biden was in office, and Then: when the crowd rightfully booed that bullshit comparison, he compares them to J6 rioters.

It’ll be interesting to see if DOJ will be in as much of a hurry to take this case up to #SCOTUS as it was the Dellinger case. My own bet is “probably not,” especially given the loss here was before a pretty friendly panel—and Judge Forrest’s (IMHO, unanswerable) points about “irreparable” harm.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com had Anna Linn, former USAID contract worker, laid off by the thoughtless DOGE knife. She worked on reducing malaria deaths. It is consistent with her deep Christian faith. The program was started by GW Bush era USAID to address the 600000 malaria deaths per year.

Last week, Elon Musk appeared alongside Trump in the Oval to defend the work of DOGE. Looking directly at Musk, Trump asked; “Could you mention some of the things your team has found?” Tonight, the government claimed that Musk isn’t in charge of DOGE & isn’t a DOGE employee.
