Instead of spending his time firing bird flu containment workers, firing the people who oversee our nuclear stockpile, & firing health care providers for Native Americans, perhaps he should be doing a little reading about how well things turned out for some of history's other Dictators. Not Pretty.

MAGA are shifting, but we must remain vigilant. They’ve spent years living in an echo chamber, and breaking through takes time. Keep correcting misinformation, keep exposing corruption, and keep holding them accountable. With continued pressure, they will have no choice but to accept the truth.

@jvl.bsky.social Im just listening to the Next Level podcast. I totally agree with JVL. I'm in Australia and its been clear forever that we can only depend on the US if its in their interest to help us eg WW2 they used us as an army and naval base. Otherwise, forget it!!!

Bernie Sanders on the secret endgame of DOGE: “They want to make the case to the American people that the whole government stinks—Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid— all of these programs that help you. They're terrible, and the way forward is to privatize them.”

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

It's very peculiar that trump says he wants to root out corruption, but his Department of Justice is determined to get the corruption charges against corrupt Mayor Eric Adams dropped, so he can corruptly pursue a quid pro quo wit Adams. The whole deal is corrupt AF.

If you are neutral in the face of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. Not choosing a side is indeed choosing a side. Ultimately you may be choosing to lose your choice. Stand up for what you believe in! Stand up for what is right!

Our team reviewed the entire DOGE website. Nothing they have identified constitutes evidence of fraud or corruption—both of which are crimes. Feel free to audit us. The funds were allotted by Congress, and OIGs regularly reviewed expenditures for fraud.
