This is not a “clean CR” — this is a green light for Trump and Musk to continue their campaign of corruption and destruction. If Republicans want to hand over the power of the purse to Trump and his billionaire buddies, they can pass this bill themselves.

I hope the Florida governor’s comments mocking Canadians spread far and wide. He’s saying 2024 tourism numbers mean there’s no boycott in 2025. We went there in ‘24. Definitely not going back this year.

DOGE cut off payments for the electricity, cell phone, and internet service of U.S. government employees who work in a high-risk area in Central America. Meanwhile, DOGE apparently plans to spend $25,000 to install a washer and dryer for their own personal use in a federal office building in DC.

NEW: I helped Brian Krebs trace the background of one of Elon Musk's top loyalists, Branden Spikes, head of IT at X, who spent 2 mo at DOGE. Spikes and his ex-wife were involved with Russian diaspora websites and groups linked to pro-Kremlin KSORS players, Russian state media while he was at SpaceX.

What has Musk been up to up north? Tesla reported selling 8,600 vehicles at four locations in Canada in three days - resulting in $43 million in government EV rebates - just before the government stopped those rebates. A single Toronto showroom claimed over 1,200 sales in a single day.

Trump, Musk and Republicans are drunk off power, ego, and functioning with 0 accountability or checks. Like I said before, they are playing on some dangerous territory. Going after veterans? Medicaid? Social Security? Yeah...even hardcore Republican voters won't accept that.

Republicans in Congress are saying their tax plan will cost $0. That's a lie. The truth: they want to pay for billionaire tax handouts by adding trillions to the deficit and slashing health care coverage. Republicans can try to repeal math, but they can't repeal reality.

This week the GOP called a hearing in support of Trump’s immigration policies. But these policies aren’t securing the border. The admin fired many top law enforcement officers investigating and prosecuting cases. They've frozen funds needed to address violence and drug problems in our communities.

Trump on Putin: "I think we're doing very well with Russia. But right now they're bombing the hell out of Ukraine. I'm finding it more difficult, frankly, to deal with Ukraine. And they don't have the cards ... in terms of getting a final settlement, it may be easier dealing with Russia."
