NEW Here is the full email that Musk/OPM is sending to 2 million federal employees. Subject line: What did you do last week? Musk claimed on X that failure to reply would be considered a resignation, but that is not mentioned in the email.

Opinion | Je Suis Big Balls by Ross Douthat

I don’t know how many different ways to say that agency personnel don’t work for Elon. They don’t have to report to Elon. They report to their agency leadership, which reports to the President.

But this seems like a superb way to get to that Appointments Clause standing.

This guy is gonna get pelted with so many Dunkin' iced coffees.

'provocative' is a fascinating euphemism for 'racist' here. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/w...

I need everyone to be crystal clear that this is a continuation of RFK and the wellness community’s *obsession* with the elimination of the disabled and the chronically ill. They are disgusted by us, they view illness and disability as weakness, and they believe in using eugenics to disappear us.

When these inaccuracies were first found, they could be called "mistakes." When DOGE took efforts to cover them up, they can no longer be considered "mistakes."

Please take a few minutes today & read this piece by @rtraister.bsky.social. I have tried to write/say something similar several times over the last month but find myself too choked by rage & futility to get through anything. Rebecca says it all:

I don’t understand how there’s any debate about whether to characterize them as Nazis when they’re out here sieg heiling. It’s an absolute failure of messaging not to name and condemn this behavior, and build a narrative around it.

This podcast episode is definitely worth a listen if you have a few minutes.

Fantastic piece by @adamserwer.bsky.social of the resegregation of America under Trump.

Elon Musk is a bandit. And Doug Ford just signed $100 million deal with him. Meanwhile he and Trump are trying to crush the people of Ukraine. Doug Ford says it's the "best bang for the buck." No Doug, this is what vichy collaborators do. Slava Ukraini

Judge Advocate General JAGs are the military's top lawyers who administer the military code of justice. Hegseth has previously railed against the military's calling them “jagoffs” in his book. He fired the top 3 JAGs (Army, Navy, and Air Force) whom he plans to replace. He’s a Christofascist.

Call GOP members in both houses. Shame them for their roles in enabling this treason. They are co-conspirators, as guilty as Trump, Musk & the now free-range J6 criminals. They should vote for the interests of Americans. Not the Heritage Foundation elites! Do not let them off the hook! Yell!

DOGE staffer Marko Elez, who had to resign from Treasury, is now at Social Security Administration. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

DOGE’s expenses have risen above 40 million, with weekly costs now exceeding 10 million. We will release an updated DOGE staff list soon.

Oh. One day after Coonerama at the White House, Trump fired the Black chairman of the joint chiefs. And you won’t hear the negroes who kiss Trump’s ass say a goddamn thing.

Victoria DeLano is one of thousands of federal probationary employees fired in recent days by the new Department of Government Efficiency team. At the time of her firing, she said she was the only Office of Civil Rights investigator based in Alabama. www.al.com/educationlab...

News results show only Spanish language press reporting on Mexican actor Eduardo Verástegui giving a Hitler salute at #CPAC, the second Nazi salute at the pro-Trump conference featuring Republican officials, following Steve Bannon. Trump is speaking at CPAC today. Why isn't this a major story?

New, from me: Unpacking the Friday night news: *The military purges have begun - why do they also include lawyers? *A Judge is allowing the dismantling of USAID to proceed. This reflects a pattern where Judges are ignoring the broader democratic risks. open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...

“Operation Whirlwind” What’s Happening Now? In 2025, Operation Whirlwind was launched under Interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin to investigate alleged threats against employees of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Trumps border czar Tom Homan on stage at Cpac now getting the crowd amped up with his lines about how he’s gonna “send their ass to Gitmo where they belong,” talking about the people and “criminals” he is committed to rounding up “Damn I love my job,” he says to cheers

It’s so beautiful! 😍😍😍

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.

James Carville is doing what every single Democrat of influence should do: speak the truth to MAGA Fox "News" & all extreme rightwing, lying media. The MAGA public never hears what's real. They're being screwed by Trump. They need to know exactly how. Thanks for your bravery, James. #maga
