80% of germans said no to afd. that’s one hell of a mandate against afd platform.

Replacing all the JAGs seems…not good.

And out of our lives, ideally.

Election security is national security. And in its crusade against federal agencies, the Trump administration is gutting parts of the government that help protect against cyberattacks, combat foreign interference, and regulate campaign finance in federal elections.

I really want to be snarky about the funding cuts as in "duh,' those chickens have come home to roost'" but the real chickens are dropping like flies www.news5cleveland.com/news/state/o...

A chainsaw rarely discriminates.

Federal workers responsible for America's nuclear weapons, scientists trying to fight bird flu, and officials responsible for supplying electricity are among those who have been accidentally fired in President Trump's rush to lay off thousands of workers reut.rs/438ofU4

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

Three updates: 1. The Justice Department has deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct. The database was first proposed in 2020 following the police killing of George Floyd.

EMERGENCY VIDEO: Doesn’t it make sense, since we evidently don’t have enough money to stop AIDS in Africa or utilize that we cut Congress’ budget? Doesn’t it make sense for the White House to live on less? Shouldn’t Elon Musk take a cut to his Space x? adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

This is, btw, right out of the Nazi playbook to dehumanize people and give them a permission structure to hate.

Dark Pence is back.

Yep 👇🏼(This Administration's short-sighted hubristic performative "America First" will eventually lose us a seat at the table - and put us directly in harms way.)

This take. 👇🏻

putin is a war criminal. i have no problem with the us president (or macron or scholz) talking with him. but under no circumstances should his crimes be normalized or white washed. what’s happening right now is a stain on the united states and its role in the world.

it’s the best day putin has had since the invasion

This isn't protecting anybody from an IRS audit, as they want to claim. Nor is it an "audit" of the IRS. This is a blatant attempt by a non-elected entrepreneur to gather Americans most sensitive financial and personal information.

This Man Wants Your Tax Returns. (Come on! These TV/Internet/billboard ads should be running tomorrow!)

Fact check: nearly 70 percent of US money for Ukraine actually went to US defense industry to replenish the stocks of OLD stuff that went to Ukraine to use. Much of which we would have paid to destroy as their lifespan expired.

This recalls Matthew Shepard. Horrifying and infuriating.

I’d really like Pete to be in charge of something all the time.

Vance needs to go home and stay there

Across the government, probationary employees and Schedule A workers—including individuals with severe physical, psychiatric, or intellectual disabilities, as well as veterans—are being let go.

The attack on NIH funding would devastate critical life-saving research taking place through our world-class universities and medical institutions across Ohio. These cuts would also cost Ohio jobs, our competitiveness, and undermine some of the crown jewels of this state. 1/

From today’s edition of The Dumbest…

Trump claimed that DOGE has uncovered billions in “fraud, waste, and abuse.” However, no evidence has been provided, and all public fraud claims from both Elon Musk and Trump have been debunked as false.

Ya think?

Wired is doing such great work here.

Random musing - is it just me, or has Karoline stopped wearing her cross necklace at press conferences?

When adversaries start cheering for your efforts to eliminate your influence through foreign aid, you know their next steps are to fill the space you left www.axios.com/2025/02/05/t...

Running the government like a business, but the business is Twitter.

This is a great idea. Do you know anyone in Congress you can talk to?

Ontario to cancel $100mn contract with Elon Musk’s Starlink https://www.ft.com/content/0f8ea270-1807-407c-bc04-6bb9fe6e5478

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

I asked Chatgpt to draft a fictional dystopian story. chatgpt.com/share/679ebb...

Elon Musk was not elected to anything.
