If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Here in Illinois, ten years ago we saw the consequences of a rampant ideological gutting of government. It genuinely harmed people. Our citizens hated it. Trust me – I was elected based in part on just how much they hated 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.

We wanted them to have healthcare and a high paying job and a planet to live on and freedom. They want us to suffer. The parties are not the same.

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

Wherever possible please buy your books directly from authors and/or publishers. Even ebooks (then Amazon can't delete them either). We make a better cut and you get the same thing or better, plus Bezos and ilk don't get richer. Win win win.

Defense Secretary reframing not paying his taxes as a weaponization of government is a pretty good distillation of where things are

It’s nice that the Target founder’s heirs oppose canceling DEI & sidelining Black-owned products, but they don’t run the company—and Target has made its stance clear. @Target.com: There’s nothing you sell that I can’t find elsewhere. I don’t shop where I’m not welcome. You’ve already been replaced.

Could someone out there write a definitive guide on convenient alternatives to using Amazon.com for goods and books and whatnot? Asking for some folks who don’t want to see democracy die in darkness.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but we didn't have multiple plane crashes per week under President Biden and Secretary Buttigieg.

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

It’s crazy to think this county was more tolerant of the differences among us 50 years ago than it is today.

If a Dem president was at a car race the day after a major national disaster had 3 states underwater with fatalities, most of the posts on X tonight would be trashing that president. But whether bad or good, Dems politicians don’t seem to like to play that game. But it is effective.

States are being ravaged by floods, thousands of federal employees were fired for being collateral damage of revenge, food aid rots in ports, bird flu/measles are spreading, inflation/prices are surging, yet the orange felon wasted millions riding around Daytona 500. I hate him.
