Holy 💩!

So I guess the thinking is he's going to roll back the tariffs tonight at State of the Union. They're just a distraction from all the First Amendment attacks. Plus he loves moving the market with a post.

And there it is. Motherfuckers.

Today, a reporter from the Russian state news agency TASS gained unauthorized access to the Oval Office. How does one gain unauthorized access to the Oval Office? Meanwhile, AP and Reuters were blocked.

Still Black History month and here's something new i learned!

I don't think you can look at what is brewing in Washington right now and just assume that the US will still be a functioning geopolitical actor this time next year

so uhhhh did Elon shut down the National Sex Offender Registry too? www.nsopw.gov

Van Hollen: "Can you imagine FDR in the middle of WW2 saying to Churchill, 'you know, we're not going to continue to help you until you turn over half of your coal and mineral reserves.' That's not how you behave when you want to support a friend who's under attack by an authoritarian like Putin."

Attorney General Pam Bondi disbanded an FBI task force investigating foreign influence operations, including those targeting U.S. elections. Additionally, she restricted enforcement actions against individuals who fail to disclose lobbying on behalf of foreign governments.

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

Important capitulation in advance.

Blatant First Amendment violation!

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced $339 million for health insurance during the closing days of President Joe Biden’s administration. Five days later, the presidential administration changed. And Colorado is still waiting for its money.

Happy VD!

Checking in with the men -- have you gotten your new F drivers license yet? He really did solve the problem -- everybody's female, as they are at conception.

Russia is so desperate that it is relying on Iranian weapons and North Korean troops, but according to the Trump admin they are too mighty for the greatest military force of all time.

media loves to cast it as a "government spending cuts" story because they cannot get off a single narrative about what one party favors (small government) versus the other (big government) and boy, are they getting this story completely fucking wrong

Musk has arrived at IRS. So much for refunds.

Now he's violating the 1st amendment, barring AP for following the style guide. Freak press pussy says they were telling lies? Clears that up, this administration doesn't know what a lie is.

I think it's worth repeating plainly that a federal judge halted Musk's federal funding freeze nearly two weeks ago but funds are still very much being frozen in violation of the court order.

Who'd've ever guessed that Gates would end up my fave tech bro?

Truth!

So much insanity but the Administration is attacking the constitution again, pay attention. apnews.com/article/trum...

Another bold faced grab at working peoples money. Sure we need more payday loan pkCes and sketchy mortgages. Trump's acting CFPB chief shutters headquarters, halts supervision - www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Here's what's happened, if you're just tuning in: 1. Musk ally Tom Krause told the Treasury career staff to cut off USAID payments 2. The career staffer resisted, saying doing so is illegal 3. The career staffer was ousted by Trump team 4. Krause has now been installed as head of the payments system

Keep it up! We will NOT stand for this!

This is an epic burn 🔥🇨🇦 #OhCanada🎶

If there's one thing I know about capitalism, it's that businesses absolutely love uncertainty about basic issues.

What fresh hell is this? How to say poor white areas without using those words. And Utah.
