NEWS: The Trump administration has funneled Elon Musk's company $86 million out of NASA coffers since the inauguration - all while NASA now slashes 5 percent of its entire workforce.

If all blue states did this the other states would be in a world of hurt.

The rifts are growing. Patel wanted an FBI agent as deputy to secure some buy-in to his leadership in the building, AND so he would have at his right hand somebody who knows how to navigate the FBI. The podcast host won’t help with either. But Trump is drunk w/power and both absent & omnipresent.

it seems like DC might now be a free fire zone for ALLEGED domestic violence, as long as you have an R after your name

We need to do something about this. My Governor @biggretchenwhitmer.bsky.social has fewer followers than I do. Help me fix that bluesky friends. Please repost💙

At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

Did the @nytimes.com really quote the mf-ing communications director of the Houston YOUNG REPUBLICANS as if he were just some random young Black person who likes Trump? Cause it sure looks like it.

another thing every other president in history would be impeached for just happened

“We’ll see you in court.” Gov. Janet Mills is a badass for this.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

This is what happens when we’re convinced to “hear all sides” and to “engage with those we don’t agree with” so we can populate “the marketplace of ideas” What absolute horseshit

Marco Rubio on Fidel Castro: “One of the most brutal dictators the western hemisphere has ever known... You don’t forgive someone who thinks they never did anything wrong.” Marco Rubio on "peace" talks with Putin: "...incredible opportunities that exist to partner with the Russians." #USDemocracy

NEW: As legal challenges to DOGE mount, the White House claims Elon Musk is not technically in charge of the effort and has no decision-making power. That contradicts Trump/Musk's own public portrayal. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

What?

Crazy things are happening in this country. Looks like she didn’t “step down” after 30 years in service. Instead, she “was stepped down” seems more accurate. apnews.com/article/soci... Social Security head steps down over DOGE access of recipient information: AP sources

YIKES. “Throughout history, tyranny has been limited by human frailty. Dictators tire. … They must sleep. … “AI fundamentally changes this equation. … [W]e face the prospect of systems of control that never sleep, … and … can … identify patterns of resistance before they even fully form.”

A week ago, Musk refers to DOGE as "we"

Here's to all the millionaire-at-birth racist brats, surrounded by yes-men, who think America's CIA & FBI agents really enjoy being abused & hunted, and would never, ever push back; especially against billionaires who might have things to hide.

JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Wherein Elon says the quiet, corrupt part out loud: He intends to steal the private IRS data of his political enemies. How soon before he does the same to his economic competitors? Or you?

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

This bombshell investigation from yesterday with six bylines is already off the NYT homepage. Behind the scenes on how Senator Tillis flipped to support Hegseth amid threats of retaliation from Trump. Give it a read. 🎁 Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/u...

Not exaggerating when I say that the path back is going to be built on people in positions of influence regaining their sense of self-respect. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

NEW — In an alarming email last night reviewed by me, Coast Guard members learned that 1,135 members' direct deposit account routing information was compromised due to a data breach from unauthorized access. It was only discovered because an officer “reported anomalous activity” on their account.

We won the Cold War and now Trump is retroactively surrendering.

Looks like Eric Adams’ corruption charges getting dropped only cost NYC $80 million.

We only know this man is in Gitmo because Noem tweeted a propaganda photo that included him and his sister saw it. He has no criminal record. He entered the US in January and immediately made an appointment with CBP to claim asylum. They sent him to a concentration camp bc of his basketball tattoo.

Alexander Dugin, the Russian ultra-nationalist and Neo-fascist, tweets at Tulsi Gabbard after her confirmation and says “you are simply awesome.” Dugin, a close Putin ally, is often referred to as “Putin’s brain.”

Putin is having his best day in 30 years.

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

We should probably start telling our elected dems now, that there is absolutely no negotiating with terrorists when it comes to the budget and debt ceiling. No concessions, nothing, until the terror stops. Nothing!

“Efforts by Trump officials to control the publication have stalled the release of three studies about bird flu for weeks, as the virus continues spreading through wild birds, poultry farms and cows around the country.” www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-o...

I remember when right-wing media said that I wasn’t qualified to be a member of Congress because of my credit card debt. My debt was nowhere near $1.2 million. Do they think the same of RFK Jr? Or does that standard only apply to young people? We know the answer.

Booz Allen fires contractor who prepared an assessment warning Treasury not to let DOGE access payment system www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

One of Musk’s DOGE employees was apparently a user on KiwiFarms, a hate website that existed almost solely to bully/harass minorities into suicide. Think of the worst person on 4Chan, working with 16K other equally awful people to ruin lives. That’s who’s in charge. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Trump’s secretary of state “Little Marco” Rubio is skipping one of the biggest events in the diplomatic calendar because it’s too “woke.” China and Russia are undoubtedly thrilled.

SCOOP: The US Treasury claimed a DOGE's Marco Elez didn’t have ‘write access,’ when he actually did. Sources tell WIRED that his ability to alter code controlling trillions in federal spending was rescinded, days after officials said it didn't exist.

Oh buddy

New, from me: So much is happening, so quickly. The purpose of shock and awe is to bewilder and overwhelm. It is important not to look away, or get discouraged. Try to discern the what is a big and real threat. Here is my best effort to do so. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/meditation...
