I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

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.

Murphy: "The game is clear. We can see it. They're not even hiding it. There is not a rule of law anymore. There is one set of law for people who are loyal to Donald Trump, and there is one set of law for people who care criticize him. That is not democracy."

Trump will be remembered by future generations as the WORST traitor in American history, and his sycophantic political supporters will be compared to those who decades ago supported Hitler.

DOGE recommended firing staff at USDA who were working on the nation's response to bird flu and hundreds of employees working at the National Nuclear Security Administration overseeing our nuclear stockpile. Now the Trump admin is scrambling to hire them back. "Efficiency."

submitted 3 days ago • 165 comments

DOGE needs to hear this: firing people – like USDA workers tracking bird flu and VA workers answering the Veterans Crisis Line – and then rehiring them is deeply inefficient.

Trump said he wouldn’t touch Medicaid. He lied. (Shocking, I know.) Today, Trump fully endorsed House Republicans’ proposal to cut federal Medicaid funds by $2.5 trillion. Here’s what that could mean for you:

The Trump/House budget will cut $880 billion from Medicaid and $230 billion from SNAP to pay for tax cuts to billionaires. But just in case Elon Musk wasn't benefiting enough, it also gives us a trillion dollar defense budget to pay for added missile defense, with contracts likely going to SpaceX.

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

I was just an Education Department guy under Reagan and the most junior WH senior staffer under G.H.W. Bush, so what do I know? But if I were an ex-president, and the current president were executing the most disastrous turn in American foreign policy in 80 years, I think I might say something?

For far too many years, Susan Collins expresses dismay and concern about Trump’s extremism, knowing that it doesn’t reflect the views of the majority of her state. But her ACTIONS show that she goes along with that extremism EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. A complete phony.
