Elon backtracked on DOGE savings goals from $1 trillion to $150 billion. But watchdogs report only $12.6 billion in verifiable savings. That represents just 0.173% of the U.S. federal budget for 2025. We're losing vital government services for basically nothing in return.

Same Hate Different Hat

If you're a reporter in a White House press briefing as the spokesperson for the government asserts flatly that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a member of the MS-13 gang who's guilty of human trafficking and you sit there silently without shouting out "PROVE IT!" I'd like to invite you to go fuck yourself.

Remember: you can’t spell Felon without Elon

Absolutely

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

I agree. In a functioning democracy, we would already be in the midst of an impeachment trial.

There are a couple that spring to mind right away...

We have 3 branches of federal government. Usually, if one is not working properly, the other 2 can step in. Have we ever had another time in our nation's history when *none* of the branches were working? Yes, the judiciary seemed prepared to step into the breach--until SCOTUS ruined things again.

FB shut off comments and reactions to this so thought I'd share here.

That might sting …..

@scotus-blog.bsky.social please know that We the people hold you in contempt…well most of you anyway.

"I didn't vote for" you did. Sorry. You did. Should have listened to the woke libtards instead of your roided out imaginary friends who told you kids were pooping in kitty litter at school

Here’s a truth: #HeDestroys🤡

when people say "this isn't what I voted for" they should be forced to list what they DID vote for

Anonymous, if you’re listening… Please hack Fox News and disable them for at least 3 months. We will have a new country if you do. Thank you… Signed, Sane America 😎✨

I so wish the judge would respond: "Listen Assholes: I have jurisdiction over YOU. And if you don't do as I order, those guys in El Salvador won't be the only ones in jail. Now, hop to it."

Here for it!!

I'm no good with patterns. Can someone help me out here?

"All we say to America is, 'Be true to what you said on paper.'" These words — spoken by MLK Jr. shortly before he was killed on this day in 1968 — ring just as true now. Let's honor his legacy by continuing the fight for social and economic justice.

More Senator Booker. Less Senator Schumer. Thank you, @booker.senate.gov!

Abolish ICE is not an absurdity statement. ICE was created in 2003 as a response to 9/11 - we do not need it. We already established that following orders isn't an excuse.

The most important thing to know about those currently in power: they think you have it too easy.

This!!

And ICE are the Gestapo.

@alexwinter.com is this real?
