Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

another Nazi salute at CPAC

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.

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

This is so many words to say Trump fired the chairman of the joint chiefs because he’s black www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

If you support this, you’re an awful human being

Trump on civil servants working from home: “Nobody’s going to work from a home. They’re going to be going out. They’re going to play tennis. They’re going to play golf. They’re going to do a lot of things. They’re not working.” Trump 1.0 - 293 golf days, $150m to taxpayers Trump 2.0 - $10.7m

Trump’s betrayal of Americans: He promised not to cut Medicaid—now he’s backing a House plan that slashes $880 billion from it. All to fund $4.5 trillion in tax cuts for the rich. He doesn’t care if families drown in debt, as long as he & his billionaire buddies get richer. Don’t Cut My Medicaid!

Never mind.. we're just gonna do the Dark Ages again instead. đź‘Ť

When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing: 420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power. MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

Mark my words—He is going to try to shut down mail-in voting. When he does, we will sue and we will win. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

Can we just seize the Russian assets already and give them to Ukraine? Good lord just do it

Alaska has the fourth-highest number of federal workers per capita—fish & game, forestry, and more—their jobs are being cut under the excuse of “poor performance.” Lisa Murkowski knows that’s a lie—so why won’t she just say, it’s a lie. Collins, Burchett, and the rest are just giving lip service.

This would be completely illegal. But you wouldn’t know that from reading this post, the headline, or the lede. Unbelievably bad.

Research shows that LGBTQ+ inclusion can drive economic activity. Open For Business’ latest report shows the economic case for LGBTQ+ Inclusion in Poland: open-for-business.org/poland

May their memories be a blessing. 🇮🇱

Trump accuses federal workers of “playing golf.” He spent the last three weekdays golfing.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

Does Congress even remember that it has the power of the purse? www.law.cornell.edu/constitution...

The waste is coming from the White House. 👇

Dark Pence is back.

This is embarrassing.

@kathyhochul.bsky.social could own her turf right now . Fire Eric Adams. Act like a serious woman and just cut him free. Then stop taking Trumps phone calls.

Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, just 11 years old, “took her own life in Texas after she was tormented by classmates who threatened to call Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) authorities and have her family deported from the US, her grieving parents have said.” www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

I live in Florida & Connecticut. I rely heavily on the National Weather Service to stay safe when hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, & snowstorms are coming our way. Our safety is being sacrificed for the billionaire/millionaire tax cuts. #MOMsky

These are talking points straight from the Kremlin. It is clear that Trump’s plan to “end the war” is to remove Zelenskyy, replace him with a Putin stooge, and then let Putin take over Ukraine.

He is spot on. Suck the oxygen away from Trump youtube.com/shorts/ifwD5...

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

I suspect we’re going to be hearing more stories about failing farmers having their land bought for cheep—it’s not a coincidence. Is this why USAID was cut—to make way for billionaires?! Watch til the end and keep an eye on national parklands too. 🧵

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Listen up, you star-spangled dipshits… because while you were telling me to “cry harder” for the bazillionth time today cuz I have the nerve to care about kids with cancer… THEY “ACCIDENTALLY” FIRED THE PEOPLE WHO OVERSEE OUR NUCLEAR STOCKPILE. Wake the fuck up dumbfucks.

This is the way… “The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.” With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

During his first term, Trump caused many farmers to lose their farms due to his trade wars with China and the mishandling of the pandemic. A month into their term, Biden and Harris delivered policy that helped them survive and thrive. Now they have regrets. Was not voting for a woman worth it?

"the Department of Veterans Affairs announced the dismissal of more than 1,000 employees who had served for less than two years. That included researchers working on cancer treatment, opioid addiction, prosthetics and burn pit exposure, U.S. Sen. Patty Murray, a Democrat, said Thursday."

A drunk renaming a US military base after a foreign power who fought to kill the US military seems as bit traitorous, no?

ATTN HHS EMPLOYEES: Firing notices are going out. I am in receipt of an email saying they will revoke your access as soon as you read the email that you've been fired. Please download everything you need before you open that email. SHARE FAR & WIDE. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/attn-hhs-e...

Amazing day out here and across the country! We have over 70 people at this store in Pasadena. Won't post shots of the crowd, up to others if they want to. This is just the beginning! #TeslaTakedown Teslatakedown.com

This is fascism.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

I’m having great difficulty right now seeing how our political system doesn’t devolve into violence.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

In case you were wondering!
