Apply this to everything he destroys.

The Trump administration is asking Congress to cut funding for Head Start.

We found the voter fraud!!!!!

Tariffs on! Tariffs off! Tariffs back on! You get a 300% Tariff! Tariffs back off! But not for everybody! Canada and Greenland are now America! We hate everyone and want no international allies (except Russia!)!!! "Stock market is soaring today, go me!!!!!" WINNING BIGGLY! -USA

Remarkably short sighted. www.fiercehealthcare.com/regulatory/p...

Finally *liberated* from a strong economy, record stock market, and historically low unemployment.

No tariffs on Russia. Huh?

Jeffrey Goldberg calls out Mike Waltz on NBC over Signalgate: "This isn't 'The Matrix.' Phone numbers don't just get 'sucked into' other phones. I don't know what he's talking about there … He's telling everyone that he's never met me or spoken to me. That's simply not true."

Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

The @detroitpistons.bsky.social make it VERY HARD to "pick your favorite Piston." Sasser is one on tonight and I'm so here for it. Love this team so much 😭 😍 Faithfully watching last season makes this one so much more incredible & exciting. #detroitBasketball

I immediately get pumped up when Ron steps on the court 🤩

The most obvious lesson to draw from the leaked Signal chat is that these people really are morons. It's not a public act, it's not a schtick, there's not some secret back room where they drop the facade. They are genuinely stupid, incompetent people.

Pete Hegseth must resign or be fired immediately.

“The 1952 law under which the Trump administration seeks to deport Mahmoud Khalil, a lawful permanent resident…is largely untested. Largely, but not entirely. It was ruled unconstitutional in 1996 — by President Trump’s sister.” www.nytimes.com/2025/03/24/u...

White House says no one will be fired over the Signal scandal because no one involved was trying to cure cancer.

Circling back on this…

Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid

18 U.S.C. § 793(f) makes it a federal crime to for people entrusted with information related to the national defense to, with gross negligence, disclose it to others in violation of that trust.

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

"Musk's claim ("the left is supposed to be the party of empathy") perfectly distills the asymmetry in our politics. The left is “supposed to be” empathetic, so that’s the standard it must live up to. The right isn't, so when its leader incites a riot, that’s fine since it meets our expectations."

It looks like Tesla needs DOGE's services to find fraud and waste Tesla (TSLA) accounting raises red flags as report shows $1.4 billion missing electrek.co/2025/03/19/t...

this stuff is happening across the country and even more intensively downstream of the veterans admin but it's happening in so many places at once and without any public notification that it's still only barely emerging in the news

what the actual fuck?!?!?!??!?

Putin just bombed Ukraine’s energy infrastructure hours after he promised Trump he would halt attacks on their energy grid.

A friend of my compared gutting of federal agencies to a wrecking a car: if you remove 30% of the parts of the car, it does not go 30% slower. It stops working.

From Pistons PR: Tonight’s 46-point (127-81) victory over New Orleans was Detroit’s second-largest in franchise history (52, Jan. 31, 2003 vs Boston). They held the Pelicans to 81 points, their fewest by an opponent since Jan. 10, 2018 against Brooklyn (114-80).

holy shit. in a world of Schumers be a McGee.

Halftime: Pistons 63, Pelicans 32. Opened the game with a 17-7 run and have led by 20 since the end of the 1st. Duren is on triple-double watch: 7 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists. Cunningham: 17 pts (8-10 overall), 6 assts Harris: 9 pts, 5 rebs

The provision of the 14th amendment that the Supreme Court unanimously wrote out of the constitution existed for a reason. Its drafters knew what would happen if you allowed insurrectionists back into power.

There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security. Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it "the big one to eliminate."

They called him Sleepy Joe because we could sleep at night.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

If Russia wants peace, they should end the invasion.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?
