Truly wild to see how Trump is playing second fiddle to Elon Musk. Musk is clearly acting as the de-facto president while Trump just fires off social media posts as if he is Musk's assistant.

Vaccines work! As measles cases have recently been reported in Alaska, Georgia, New York, Rhode Island and Texas, it's important to remember that prior to the introduction of the measles vaccine in 1963, measles killed 400-500 people and resulted in ~48,000 hospitalizations per year.

1 of the most blatant racist & misogynistic things I've ever seen at swearing in of Senators. Deb Fischer's husband Bruce (who makes MILLIONS from government ranch subsidies) REFUSED to shake hands with VP Kamala Harris. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. Senator Fischer voted YES on every Donald Trump nominee.

Four FEMA officials were fired for not following illegal orders to withhold spending. The White House is saying of judicial decisions: "These unlawful injunctions are a continuation of the weaponization of justice against President Trump." These are not warning signs. This is happening now.

Welcome to the DOGE billionaire gravy train. But, really why are Elon Musk and his Silicon Valley buddies targeting Treasury payment systems? We don’t know…because there is ZERO GOVERNMENT OVERSIGHT on DOGE. House Republicans are still shielding Musk from accountability. We are fighting back!
