Certainly doesn’t look to me as though the end goal is cutting government spending… They’re looking to reroute $$$ to the oligarchs. Firstly, by funneling our tax dollars into tax cuts for the oligarchs. Secondly, by creating government contracts for the oligarchs by privatizing our services.

I can’t stop thinking about these two headlines

Zelenskyy has become one of the world’s greatest heroes. — That’s eating Trump alive.

Why are so many people failing to make these connections? We either find a way out of this presidency or we are fucked. x.com/calltoactivi...

True words.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

The Word of the Day: "quid pro quo": something for something; a favor for a favor.

US watchdog's election security work halted following Trump executive order on 'censorship': The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has suspended all its election security work and is conducting a comprehensive review of its activities in this area over the past eight years,…

🚨BREAKING: Two attorneys with DOJ Public Integrity Section have entered appearances, and moved to dismiss the criminal indictment against Eric Adams. This stain on this once proud part of DOJ will not easily be erased.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Across the government, probationary employees and Schedule A workers—including individuals with severe physical, psychiatric, or intellectual disabilities, as well as veterans—are being let go.

Good advice ⬇️

I would do it exclusively in red areas. Go where minds can be changed. Not where the choir already stands behind you !

If you live in New York State and think Gov. Kathy Hochul should remove the corrupt mayor of NYC, give her a call or send her a letter.

Roses are red Musk is a fascist End his dictatorship And make him pay taxes

I organize online, but I show up in person. We can’t just throw hot takes out on social media. We have to call, write, testify, and march if we can. Show up and they’ll know the resistance is real.

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Dear Governor Kathy Hochul: It's time. You have the power to remove Eric Adams from office as NYC mayor. Take a stand -- and stand up for cleaning up corruption in New York. REMOVE ADAMS NOW. Sincerely, A New Yorker

The Justice Department said that the federal government will not release the names of FBI agents who worked on Trump-related cases after a temporary agreement was reached with FBI employees and agents.

The April 1 election includes a Wisconsin Supreme Court race that could maintain or end the liberal majority on a court that has decided many voting rights cases, as well as an amendment that could enshrine strict Voter ID requirements into the state constitution.

"I will bring down inflation on day one." 😂😂😂😂

Mitch McConnell voting no on terrible cabinet picks because he doesn’t have to run for reelection is all the proof you need that we must have term limits. You shouldn’t only have a spine because you don’t have to run again. We are breeding chicken shit power hungry electeds.

We only know this man is in Gitmo because Noem tweeted a propaganda photo that included him and his sister saw it. He has no criminal record. He entered the US in January and immediately made an appointment with CBP to claim asylum. They sent him to a concentration camp bc of his basketball tattoo.

Deceased 🤣💀

NEW VIDEO: I have never seen as many federal judges angry with the federal government as there are right now. And one judge in Rhode Island seems poised to find someone in criminal contempt. Paige and I discuss. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVzF...

The move puts the security and integrity of elections in the U.S. — especially at the state level, where local election officials rely on CISA resources to securely run elections — at risk. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Believing that Tulsi Gabbard — longtime Russian asset and newly confirmed Director of National Intelligence — is acting in the interests of the United States requires an extraordinary level of self-delusion.

As the military under Pete Hegseth rolls back recruiting for minority Americans remember that black women are the only reason the Army met its recruiting goals last year. Not enough white men qualify to even serve no matter volunteer. They'll learn when recruiting collapses and it ain't "wokeness."

It is hard to imagine someone more disqualified to run our intelligence agencies than Tulsi Gabbard.

Greenland to be renamed “Red White and Blueland” — actually bill in Congress. We are truly run by idiots.

"This is code red": Trump's Project 2025 agenda comes for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau: In an email sent Monday, OMB Director Russ Vought told CFBP staff to stay home and stop working

On Super Bowl Sunday, here's a reminder of what real courage looks like.

Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania successfully synchronised their electricity systems with the European energy network today. This is a key milestone for the Baltic States and for Europe strengthening energy resilience and independence across the region. ⚡️

"’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...

The suggestion that Leon & his pubescent posse are showing up at Gov’t institutions & within hours identifying & responsibly cutting waste in specialties that he has no background or understanding is PREPOSTEROUS. He’s not cutting waste- He’s destroying our institutions & stealing your info.
