Are you kidding me? They're firing 1000s of fed workers that actually do stuff for people, trying to cut Medicaid, cutting USAID, but they're OK spending $200M on ads praising Trump's border charade..?? I'd say "fucking unbelievable"...but it's really not. It's actually all too believable.

"Officials have been frustrated with the pace of deportations" In related news, new ICE director works with border patrol on deal to allow more immigrants into US...so then ICE has someone to deport. /sarcasm 😂 It's all political theater so the base can have/keep their boogeyman.

Here we go again. Ugh.

Sounds like Bibi's looking for an excuse to end the ceasefire + ethnically cleanse Gaza. The family was killed by Israel's bombing and it's likely the dead were hard to ID...and there's no DNA testing going on in Gaza. Anyway how would Hamas purposely holding her body help them? It's bad hasbara.

Can you say "X-tortion?"

I'm so tired of winning.

I'm American and don't really care about hockey—but Go Canada!

“there has been a sharp rise in maternal deaths in the state since the (Texas) abortion bans took effect” “the number of women suffering from sepsis shot up more than 50 percent” Brought to you by Donald J. Trump and MAGA

Oh the irony.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

“The real purpose of DOGE isn’t efficiency, it’s DEREGULATION.” Billionaires are screwing Americans so they can do whatever they want in their taxpayer funded boondoggles. See how Elon Musk and SpaceX is doing just that is this great piece of reporting by More Perfect Union.

'the man's wife said she recognizes the need for "a lot of cuts, she felt "this is not the one that you think will happen to your family."' Everyone sees their gov't reliance as legit but all others as waste. Musk sees his billion $ Fed contracts as good, Medicaid healthcare for the poor as bad.

"Government may not be perfect, but it's the only thing large enough to offset multinational corporate exploitation and corruption." Yep. That's what I've been saying as well.

An oldie but a goodie— this little reminder for Donny from SchoolHouse Rock!

An absolutely heartbreaking story. Where the hell has our humanity gone here in the US?

I don't feel have any problem say that confirming RFK Jr. to HHS Secretary will result in people dying.

Look, a President who is actually working to lower food prices! Mexico's Claudia Sheinbaum got retailers (including Walmart) to lower prices on food items that people need everyday. We need way less DOGE and way more of this.

Absolute lunacy.

This is why we need a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau fighting for working Americans— and why DOGE is nothing more than billionaires working to keep the economy rigged.

Posting this again because it's worth watching.

Not that anyone ever doubted it was seen by the US as a proxy war— but the US and Russia negotiating w/o Ukraine illustrates that reality pretty well. Trump 2.0 has just dropped the pretense.

Connecticut was out at The CT Capitol today.

The risks of firing air safety employees are easy to see— but there are risks and likely adverse outcomes in dozens of areas. The one possible upside to DOGE's harmful cuts is maybe the American public will see the good and necessary things, largely unnoticed, that government does everyday.

MAGA 6 Months ago: "Quit over-reacting/crying wolf about Project 2025. Trump has nothing to do with it." MAGA Post-election: "Project 2025 is totally the plan for Trump term 2." MAGA Now: "Quit over-reacting/crying wolf about DOGE/Elon Musk. He's just looking to end fraud, waste and abuse."
