šŸšØBREAKING: A federal judge ordered Trump officials with knowledge of the workings of billionaire Elon Muskā€™s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to testify under oath in a lawsuit challenging the faux agencyā€™s access to sensitive governmental databases. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Maybe Donold wonā€™t release the unredacted Epstein list because his name is all over it? Just a thought.

Says it all.

If you were in Congress, what would you do for the State of the Union? What do you think Dems should do?

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago. But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today. He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Why is this not surprising?

ā€œA video shared by Tarrio on social media on Saturday showed him following the officers, Michael Fanone, Harry Dunn and Aquilino Gonell, through ā€¦ a Washington hotel that was hosting the Principles First summit, a conference where one of the officers received a ā€˜profile in courageā€™ award.ā€

He nails it.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Trump blames Ukraine for starting the war the way a rapist blames his victim for looking too sexy.

A political action committee backed by billionaire Elon Musk has scheduled hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of TV ads in Wisconsin this week.

ā€œYou canā€™t negotiate and end to the war without Ukraine, ya jagoff.ā€

I promise you. PROMISE YOU, that in four years nobody among us will ever admit to supporting Trump in mixed company. ā€œBig Ballsā€ good Lord America

The CFPB has: -Returned $20B to victims of financial fraud -Cracked down on junk fees -Fought against politically-motivated debanking -Protected veterans from predatory lenders -Protected consumers' data from corporate abuse Oligarchs want to reverse all of this.

Well, the NFL clearly removed ā€œend racismā€ from the end zone so that they could blindside all the anti-DEI folks. They have not done a single commercial that wasnā€™t entirely about the importance of diversity equity and inclusion www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gsqh...

Donald Trump tried to illegally shut down funding for programs that millions of people rely on. Community health centers, Head Start programs, and charities are still having trouble accessing funds. Meanwhile, the taxpayers are paying for Trump's trip to the Super Bowl.

Great point.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, donā€™t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. Itā€™s starting to work.

This seems important

Is it true that Musk bought $8m of Super Bowl ads to show his supposed USAID corruption findings?

Can we dispense with this ā€œunfounded claimsā€ shit finally? He lies, pathologically. Period.

Trump's executive order dismantled a federal agency tasked with investigating Tesla for workplace racial discrimination, ending audits and enforcement nationwidā€¦

Bird flu is now spreading from birds to pets to people, but Donald doesn't want you to know that because it might make him look bad.

Thou shalt not let the foreign billionaire whose rockets blow up all the time anywhere near the air traffic control system.

As Elon Musk continues to talk about subsidies, letā€™s remember that he is the LARGEST GOVT SUBSIDIES RECIPIENT in the country!

Donold just signed an Executive Order making it illegal to intentionally misspell his name.

DOGE is reportedly threatening NOAA with massive staff and budget cuts. NOAA houses the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center, which produce forecasts and warn people about storms. This attack on public safety is ripped straight from the pages of Project 2025.

NEW: Shortly after Pam Bondi was sworn in Wednesday, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger asked her to drop the Department of Justiceā€™s lawsuit challenging the stateā€™s 2021 voter suppression law, S.B. 202. I warned you, Raffensperger is no hero. He is a GOP vote suppressor.

Democratic members of Congress DEMAND THE GOP/MAGA MEMBERS STOP CALLING YOU ā€˜FRIENDS ACROSS THE AISLEā€™. ITā€™S A SLAP IN OUR FACE.

Mark my word, Trump will restart the draft. He and Elon plan to use the money Elon gained access to to build their resorts in Gaza. Theyā€™ll put us in war to get the land.

Pretty much how they spin it!

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

I have many regrets about Earth, but making humans in a wide range of colors, shapes, and temperaments is not one of them. Celebrate thy diversity. Love each other.

Canadians booing the U.S. national anthem isnā€™t something I ever thought Iā€™d see, but this is what happens when you let a psychopath criminal with isolationist and protectionist policies back into the White House.

This week, at least three presidential nominees were caught lying under oath. But curious minds want to know: Is that still a thing? Does anybody care? Or is that just one more once-upon-a-time disqualifying thing that we shrug offā€¦ because Trump? open.substack.com/pub/charlies...
