Since writing this article, I have received messages from federal civil servants who tell me it is accurate, and that they are frightened. Please share this with anyone who doesn't understand the scale of the transformation. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

📸 No one follows more etiquette rules than the Royal Family—but notice how King Charles didn’t make any smart-ass or demeaning comments about Zelensky’s attire today. Why? Because respect isn’t about clothes—it’s about character. And that’s something money can’t buy.

The origin story behind yesterday began in 2019 when Zelensky refused Trump’s illegal demand that he investigate Joe Biden.

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

How many federal workers would DOGE need to fire to make up for Musk not paying his fair share of taxes? Answer: 677,000. That's 44% of the entire non-DoD federal workforce. Again, this power grab is not about the budget. It’s about politics.

Puppy killer Noem just spent $200 million on an ad campaign to thank trump. The money for that one butt-kiss would have paid a year’s salaries for 2500-3000 of the people he just fired. Where again is the waste?

It’s a trap. Just like the fork. They won’t actually read these emails.

Kristi Noem’s week: • Sent 400 ICE agents to Colorado and made ONE arrest. • Got the Acting Director fired. • Played dress-up cosplay. • Cheated with Corey Lewandowski. • Wacked more puppies and goats.

What’s wasteful is ordering feds to explain their jobs instead of letting them DO their jobs.

Just to be clear, this dangerous, yet ridiculous, fascist propaganda is depicting Donald Trump, not as Julius Caesar, but as Caligula.

No doubt last night’s purge reflects racism and misogyny. But those wrongs are just a cover for the far more serious evils and dangers that exist here.

With talk about the deficit and the GOP raising the debt ceiling by 4 trillion, some scale might help. If dollars were seconds: One million seconds: 12 days. One billion seconds: 31 years. *One trillion seconds: 31,600 years. Not so simple as a few zeros…the increase is exponential.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

Last night I attended the Save Our Services rally in New York City. Listen to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) fighting for people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” @aoc.bsky.social

If they were cutting waste, why raise the debt ceiling by $4 trillion? (rhetorical question) The grim truth is they are plundering our treasury, destroying programs that help/protect all Americans, AND giving themselves $4.5 trillion in tax cuts on top of that. Call it what it is…a criminal coup.
