“What the heck’s the commissioner of Social Security?" That's a real question from Frank Bisignano...the commissioner of Social Security. Millions of Americans depend on Social Security. They should be able to trust that the head of the agency even knows what the job is.

DOGE’s “Wall of Receipts” is a Wall of Deception. Another stellar breakdown from @fahrenthold.bsky.social: at least 44 contracts Musk bragged about killing came back to life—costing agencies $220M. But DOGE still lists them as "terminated," padding their phony wins. Zombie lies. Zombie contracts. 🧟‍♂️

Hours after Donald Trump did a free commercial for Tesla on the White House lawn, Elon Musk reportedly announced plans to donate $100 million to a MAGA super PAC. Money in politics has always corrupted, but it's hardly been this brazen.

tRump said Wed he feels “very badly” for the thousands of civil servants who have lost their jobs in recent weeks but that “many of them don’t work at all.” Meanwhile, a television was installed in Elon Musk’s White House office so he can “play video games” at work. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

I truly hope that one silver lining we take from this coup is that voters begin to understand that when you vote for president, you’re not just selecting one person. You’re selecting all the judges they’ll appoint, and the entire cabinet.

DOGE cut off payments for the electricity, cell phone, and internet service of U.S. government employees who work in a high-risk area in Central America. Meanwhile, DOGE apparently plans to spend $25,000 to install a washer and dryer for their own personal use in a federal office building in DC.

I love this line of attack because there's nothing that pisses off constituents more than telling them they are fake and their concerns are bullshit. Thank you for recruiting for the next round of protests of your fellow Republicans, Mike.

Reminder: An oligarch is taking a chainsaw to the federal government, firing thousands of civil servants every day, shutting down agencies, blocking funds for cancer research, stealing your medicaid and social security... ...because a few hundred billionaires don't want to pay their share in taxes.

@rbreich.bsky.social: “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.”
