Put aside the nastiness of this post, & the way in he attacks Zelenskyy as a dictator but says not a word about his pal Putin, & just focus on the way it is written: would you hire this weird person to work for you? Would you trust this odd person to teach your kid in school?

The Dep't of Health and Human Services laid off employees Saturday evening across some of its biggest agencies, including the FDA and CDC. Those laid off included people who evaluate the safety of medical devices. @rachelcohrs.bsky.social @bloomberg.com Gift link: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The CFPB is one of the American people’s best defenses against waste, fraud, and abuse. Demolishing it will, of course, lead to more waste, fraud, and abuse.

Gimme that old time separation of church and state

Good people feel it. They know we're not well because of this illness that has invaded. And it is the good people who need to be loud right now. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/defeating-...

Thou shalt not spend millions on Super Bowl ads about Jesus when you could’ve used it to feed the hungry.

Email sent to all CFPB staff this morning: "Please do not perform any work tasks."

Good morning! Our country is in the hands of a Nazi ketamine addict who uses the word “subtard” as an insult.

The reality is that Musk has no idea what he's cutting. He spent the pre-inauguration period faking being the best Paths of Exile player in the world. He is now trying to simultaneously cut every part of a $6,752,000,000,000 budget, in weeks. He doesn't know what he's doing.

🔥 AMAZING. Today, the Baltic states disconnected their power grids from that of Russia. It’s taken years of prep. What a moment.

The 'more sinister' reason behind Musk's attack on consumer protection: The Trump administration's multi-pronged attack on the CFPB continues. President Donald Trump's new acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Russell Vought, told the agency to cease nearly all its…

The world in 2025. Hundreds of thousands of Germans oppose neo-fascism. The top aide to the president of the United States supports it. apnews.com/article/germ...

"’America's competitors will relish this self-inflicted wound,’ Owens says. ‘We urge NIH leaders to rescind this dangerous policy before its harms are felt by Americans.’” www.npr.org/sections/sho...

Not even trying to hide it…

Look out everyone, there's a new Tulsi Gabbard in town.

Make no mistake. We are in the midst of a complete and total Constitutional crisis.

I realized today that Trump, Musk, DOGE, Vance, Miller, Vought and their many collaborators have broken so many laws already that they know they have to destroy our government and entire way of life to stay out of jail. This is all or nothing. We should respond accordingly.

Over 100 ICE agents spent 5 hrs in Chicago last week, arresting only 2. In Denver & Aurora, CO, over 400 agents were dispatched for migrant violence linked to Tren de Aragua. After knocking on hundreds of doors, only 1 member was arrested. (NYP, ABC News)

Racist trolls don't threaten my kids, who live in the Naval Observatory, and are surrounded by Secret Service all day. But by all means give those trolls access to federal employee personnel data.

🚨BIG SCOOP: Musk’s DOGE Teen Was Fired By Cybersecurity Firm for Leaking Company Secrets Edward Coristine posted online that he had retained access to the firm’s servers. Now he has access to sensitive government information. 🎁 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

US farmers sold $2 billion of food to USAID. Not any more. - US farmers provided 41% of food delivered by USAID - $340M of purchases/shipments are now paused. Over 680,000 tonnes. - Food stranded in Houston - Aid stopped in transit. The world’s poor starving, food rotting & US farmers screwed.

It’s not just that the buy-out won’t be honored; it can’t be honored. They have neither authority nor appropriations to honor the promise. “Fraud in the inducement.”

Aaron Craig Gleason, an anti-LGBTQ+ writer who has accused queer people of “grooming” children for sexual abuse, has been arrested and charged for molesting a child under the age of 12. www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/02/cons...

Employees of NOAA, (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Admini), ordered to halt work w “foreign nationals” amid concerns the may soon face mass firings and have its mission throttled, incl iwork on developing wind energy.

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections. Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

If you are taking care of a parent, or struggling with the decision to put them in a home, remember you could have had a paid worker come to their house to help take care of them, but Kamala Harris laughed funny, so now their Medicare is about to get frozen.

Kamala Harris was not planning an ethnic cleansing to pave the way for golf course courses… Both sides were never the same.

GOP blocked Dems from subpoena Elon Musk to appear before the Committee to answer for his unlawful takeover of federal agencies and access to sensitive Treasury and personal information. They don’t want us to know that Musk is installing Palantir to takeover www.cnn.com/2025/02/05/p...

ICYMI: A website called “DEI Watch List” has "published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers [who are mostly Black employees] across health agencies, describing them at one point as 'targets.'"

Of course it’s a coup. Miss the obvious, lose your republic. open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

The prosecutor who refused to uphold the law against Ahmaud Arbery's murderers in Brunswich, Georgia just got off criminal charges on a technicality. HORRIFIC.

minor in the scheme of things but wow who could have guessed that a guy who was one of the smarmiest and most sanctimonious people in the senate was also corrupt www.alligator.org/article/2025...
