DOGE doing an incredible job in cutting democratic responsiveness

It's like every DOGE story requires a sarcastic, "What could go wrong?"

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

MAGA is a cult A cult of dumb fucks. DOGE is a Deranged Oligarchs Gone Egomaniac

Key takeaway from DOGE: There’s less government fraud/waste than expected.

Trump tariffs end up hurting the average person a lot more than the rich He’s collecting massive money from tariffs to help offset the 3.4 trillion dollar tax break for the rich. It’s a sneaky way to transfer wealth to the rich further exacerbating the gap between the rich and modest earners

The US envoy slid a document across the table to Zelensky with a deal to sign away the rights to 50 per cent of his country’s mineral resources, worth $500bn, to the United States. “You really need to sign this,” he said. 🖋 Katie Stallard

Ce que l’on appelle le #charisme :-)

There it is: Trump announces the US will not be enforcing its new shell company registry, which is the single-best tool to counter kleptocracy.

We saw two people bully and berate an ally who is fighting for his life and the existence in his country.

I don’t even know how this could be presented as being in service of anything other than hindering scientific progress.

Wow this is truly awful, 18F did such incredible work

terminated 18F employees speaking out

18F staffers- who were summarily fired en masse overnight- issue statement expressing shock, bewilderment: "18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated."

I missed this (Feb 6). Trump DOJ shut down “Taskforce Kleptocapture” that seized Russian oligarch super yachts. <surprised pikachu face> www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Penguin paints a picture and is extremely pleased with herself.

This is INSANE. Even if you think Zelenskyy was out of line or rude or whatever in the Oval, the US government is going to just throw the entire country of Ukraine under the (Russian) bus over this? Toddlers in kindergarten behave better, and more strategically, than this.

I'm totally depressed by Trump and Vance's treatment of Zelensky in the Oval today. Seems like payback for the 2019 phone call that led to Trump's first impeachment. We can't forget that Ukrainians have been fighting and dying for their nation's land and people since 2014.

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.
