Great podcast.

Appearing today in The Week:

Yeah, I remember being hassled for about a decade over being right about that

Taxpayer advocates and unions filed a lawsuit to block Elon Musk’s DOGE from accessing and retaining sensitive data from the IRS. Plaintiffs say "DOGE is violating multiple laws[.]"

Put this on blast.

📢 “He’s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. He’s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. He’s looting everything good in America for private profit.” - @aoc.bsky.social at today’s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isn’t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

This has been my point for weeks about what Musk is after. Consolidated data from the biggest mine of information in the world. He’s so thirsty for data he’d get his hands on the nuclear codes if he could. Could he? www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

The key point that was made in this clip is that it happened organically. We don’t come from the consultant class, we get zero legacy media hype, we don’t get invited on shows & don’t want to be on TV, no big money donors writing checks. It all happened one person at a time. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

EXCLUSIVE: While Department Of Justice Attorneys Claim Elon Musk Does Not Lead DOGE, Republicans Tell Their Constituents Otherwise Republican members of Congress are actively contradicting the Justice Department.

Um...Is he okay?

Senate Republicans just *BLOCKED* Sen. Ossoff’s amendment to protect children’s and maternal health care through Medicaid.

Nights of BLUE SKIES (sound up) DAY 20 FEBRUARY 2025 Message from one of my FAVORITE PEOPLE Who always speaks truth Congressman Eric Swalwell "R U FUCKING KIDDING MOMENT" Blue Sky only allows 60 seconds he goes on to say Support the COURTS Support HOUSE DEMS GET OUT AND PROTEST

Canada beats the US in the 4 Nations faceoff in overtime 3-2. The US now becomes a Canadian province and Trump is downgraded to Premier.

Canadians are now referring to the United States as the 11th province

Elon Musk alternates between pure nihilism and pure malevolence After two years of him retweeting Good Dad memes posted about him by others, we discover that unless he can use a child of his as a prop he is simply not interested This is the guy telling everyone to have as many children as possible

Here we go. Certain generals must be removed before any martial law plan is put into action—as Trump and Hegseth are worried there may still be some generals out there who support the Constitution rather than his proposed dictatorship. This is a political purge intended as a precursor to far more.

Take J. Edgar Hoover and then make him 30 times worse. The whole nation will suffer for this folly. Suffer so much more than anyone yet realizes. This was a critical benchmark Trump had to hit to advance his plan to destroy democracy. Everyone who voted for Kash Patel should live in infamy forever.

Well this isn’t ominous

Federal judge won't stop Trump administration's mass firings for now - CBS News

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.

Holy shit! You’ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: “You don’t think I’m going to stand up for you?” Woman in the crowd: “You need to stand up.” Another woman: “Don’t bend over.” 🔥

While Republicans start their work tonight on a bill to cut your Social Security and Medicare benefits, Democrats are working to make your life better, safer, and more affordable. Here are 10 of the amendments I filed to the Republican budget bill 🧵

Laid-off IRS employee said he had voted for Trump: "I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason." www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/p...

Arresting someone for calling you fascist seems an excellent approach to proving their point.

30 days into the Trump administration and it's more clear than ever that Republicans are not okay: https://store.democracydocket.com/collections/republicans-are-not-okay

Until that happens, they need to call out this weak effort to intimidate them from doing their jobs. Don’t be intimidated; don’t give them an inch.

One more time for the people in the back: Trump does not give a f*ck about working folks!

Please sign my petition to stop the GOP from cutting Medicaid by $1 trillion. These kids don’t deserve to suffer from the bad decisions of their parents, nor do the millions of other Americans who did not vote for FOTUS www.change.org/StopGOPSlash...

Trump is going to have people murdered before he’s done. It’s what all the cool dictators do

So, the Acting head of Social Security Administration resigned after a dispute with Elon Musk’s DOGE. The current acting is a tRump designee. At this point, we, the owners and recipients of Social Security, have no idea what is going on with OUR retirement fund/1
