In order to actually cut $1 trillion from the budget you are going to need massive cuts to programs like Social Security. Musk is not hiding his intentions

In light of the post below it's worth noting that 70% of the $170B of US aid since 2022 to Ukraine goes to US companies, according to the conservative American Enterprise Institute. Plenty of European companies produce munitions President Zelensky.

I’ve been suggesting on TV and podcasts—without actual evidence(!)—that it may turn out that DOJ will wind up not having enough lawyers to defend all the lawsuits challenging this administration’s illegal conduct. Turns out it seems already to be true. 👉

If Republicans make massive cuts to Medicaid, it will impact all aspects of our health care system. Millions of kids will lose coverage, hospital and insurance rates will soar and nursing homes will shut down. All this in order to give huge tax breaks to billionaires. NO CUTS TO MEDICAID.

I’m still processing what we saw in the Oval Office and it’s difficult to put into words how disgusted and ashamed I am. This was a coordinated assault on an ally to benefit a dictator and authoritarian regime. Trump and Vance aren’t just Putin’s puppets, they’re his assets.

Since 1846 and the Mexican War, US foreign policy has often been characterized by hypocrisy and military bullying. Indian genocide, Spanish American War, Viet Nam War. But WWII, the Marshall Plan, NATO, felt like plusses on the moral ledger. But an ignorant, amoral fool has thrown 80 years away

Military and financial support for Ukraine felt like the US choosing its better angels as foreign policy. The moral right thing. And as protection for Europe. All shit on by an ignorant, incompetent buffoon and his sycophant VP. Who once, btw, compared Trump to Hitler.

The Guardian repost below captures the irony and flavor of the most embarrassing diplomatic episode in American history. The miasma of ignorance, lies, bullying and Putin sycophancy by Trump and Vance was an abject embarrassment to the over 50% of Americans who did not vote for these 2 clowns.

During Trump's CFPB Director nomination hearing, it broke that the agency is dropping lawsuits against companies accused of cheating American families out of their money. This wasn't a coincidence. It shows exactly who is in charge right now: Elon Musk.

Just an FYI: Medicaid fraud is rarely perpetrated by beneficiaries. The fraudsters are almost always the doctors and CEO's that administer Medicaid. For example: when a doctor charges the government $600 for an $8 breast pump and pockets the cash and the third party administrator takes a cut.

AOC: “The numbers don’t add up. $880 BILLION is a devastating cut to Medicaid, and an attack on Medicare. 42 million children-covered by Medicaid. 42% of births- covered by Medicaid. The Pro-Life regime doesn't care. It's as if they want to trip us up and blame us for falling.

This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this. The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

Every time I think thing can’t get worse, the appointees can’t get worse, Trump says ‘hold my beer.’ I am stunned, even by Trump standards, that Dan Bongino, a man even Fox got rid of, is now the new deputy director of the FBI. We are so effed.

Correct. He’s not capable of playing multidimensional chess. Or chess. Or checkers. Or tic-tac-toe. As one of his aides put it during Shit Show I, “he’s just eating the pieces” on the board. Nothing he does is strategic. He’s purely guided by narcissistic, sociopathic impulses at all times.
