Garcia: The fact that the Trump DOJ now wants to silence members of Congress because we’re actually willing to take on Elon Musk is quite dangerous. It’s incredibly disturbing. But we’re not going to be silenced. We’ve got to push back.

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.

Egg prices are up 53% compared to last year and the spread of bird flu is a major reason why. How has Trump responded? By letting DOGE fire thousands of federal employees across the CDC, NIH, FDA, and the USDA who could respond to this outbreak.
