Astoundingly good “WIRED” article about my being firing from VA and what it means Author Lily Hay Newman does an incredible job capturing the high stakes of compromising the security of VA.gov […]

Will Elon have to produce a memo in which he identifies five things he did last week that actually increased government efficiency? Because if so, he getting fired.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs! This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.

Posted by @rothschildmd.bsky.social on another platform: “The entire federal government now apparently reports to Elon Musk, who is not the president, doesn't run DOGE according to Trump administration court filings, has no authority to remove federal employees, and tweets all day.”

Being a celebrity; because, you are an actor, artist, writer, or musician is one thing. Being a celebrity; because you are filthy rich is another. These people don't warrant any admiration. They are parasites. Boycott AirBNB #TheAlliedForces

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

The Senate voted 51-49 Thursday to confirm election denier Kash Patel to be the director of the FBI. During a confirmation hearing, Patel repeatedly refused to say that President Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Homan is trying to intimidate AOC for telling people their rights, but she isn’t flinching. “This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.” Trump’s immigration enforcer is learning the hard way—AOC isn’t easy to scare.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

Three updates: 1. The Justice Department has deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct. The database was first proposed in 2020 following the police killing of George Floyd.

Trump will blame Biden for ending life as we know it on Friday.

I cried. Visiting state and National Parks has created the best memories of my life. 💔

Trump is surrendering America. Trump is the opposite of strong. He is a tiny, weak, small, scared, trembling, sissy, husk of a man. There is nothing manly about his fat, sweaty, smelly, gross, makeup'ed self An absolute joke
