If you're rich, we've got great news for you! If you're not, fuck you!

This and also privatizing as much as possible so the rich can become richer. And they just like to hurt people.

Musk certainly seems to see a lot of very active dead people.

This thread.

😳

It's almost as if it was never actually about the deficit

I am assuming the fact that they were fired and did not resign is significant.

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

Mr. Hegseth has previously said that General Brown should be fired because of his “woke” focus on diversity, equity and inclusion programs in the military. Replaces a Black four-star fighter pilot with a white man who does not meet the statutory qualifications supposedly over DEI.

It’s not just Space X. Musk was able to save Tesla because of a loan from the Dept of Energy. Here he is in 2013 filled with gratitude for the federal agency & the taxpayers who saved his business. From reporting by @puck.news. airmail.news/issues/2025-...

In an unprecedented purge of the military’s senior leadership, President Donald Trump fired the top US general just moments before his defense secretary fired the chief of the US Navy and the vice chief of the Air Force.

It's cult

So long Alzheimer's and dementia research. In case you hadn't noticed, these people are not concerned with waste and inefficiency. They are destroying things because they can.

It's actually surprising no one ever tried this before. Having cabinet members with known substance abuse issues will add to the success of the ad campaign.

As Trump ‘Exports’ Deportees, Hundreds Are Trapped in Panama Hotel www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/w... Shameful

Trump administration fires thousands for ‘performance’ without evidence, in messy rush www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/... Just irresponsible harm

Remember the rules capping overdraft and other fees? GOP wants to undo those.

apnews.com/article/medi... But about 92% of Medicaid enrollees are already working, attending school or caregiving, according to an analysis by KFF, a health policy research firm.

Angry yet totally unsurprised. 🥄

It’s not what Trump posted that tells you where this is going; it’s how his people are responding to it that really tells you where this is going.

Uh oh... here come the brownshirts.

conversationinfaith.com/2025/02/15/p... In the Sermon on the Plain, found in Luke's gospel, Jesus asks us to consider whose side are we on?

People who voted Trump who are feeling pissed off right now about broken promises are an organizing opportunity, not a gloating opportunity

I'm all for space exploration and I wondered about funding since we're firing everyone and ending everything. Guess who's part of this program? Yep SpaceX.

How could they not know?

This is just sheer brazen criminality by DOJ. Adams gets federal corruption charges dropped not because there isn’t overwhelming evidence, but because he agrees to help Homan round up migrants. And Homan says the charges will be refiled if Adams doesn’t “come through.”

DOJ leadership has put all Public Integrity Section lawyers into a room with 1 hour to decide who will dismiss Adams indictment or else all will be fired. Sending them strength to stand by their oath, which is to support the Constitution, not the president’s political agenda. 🇺🇸

What?

This is the lawsuit!

The president is concerned about waste, fraud, and abuse. In my opinion, he, himself is the major source of waste,fraud and abuse. And of course Musk. Imagine how much less waste, fraud,and anus we would have if they have jobs outside the government.

Stay strong AP

Good news

Yes! The oppression of people violates my deeply held religious beliefs and interferes with my religious practice.

Why they really shuttered CFPB paulkrugman.substack.com/p/springtime...

BREAKING: On Friday, Defense Sec. Hegseth ordered an immediate "pause" on trans medical care, processing of trans military recruits. DOJ didn't inform the court until Monday, despite having been ordered to “immediately notify“ the plaintiffs and court of any change. www.lawdork.com/p/breaking-d...

A current diagnosis of our national polity. Of the 3 branches of government, the legislative + judicial are becoming increasingly irrelevant. The executive is becoming fused with the (billionaire) $ sector. Our political hope is that the legislative + judicial wake up to their growing irrelevance.

Guess where the food used in food aid comes from?

It's been sobering to realize over the past decade that the government is so dependent upon people respecting norms and ( previously) shared values. The "guardrail" was belief in democracy.

Medical research is valuable because it saves lives and reduces suffering. However since most of those in charge prioritize $. Here's this.
