Wow 🙌💪💯

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.

58 missiles and 194 drones fired on Ukraine last night. That's how Russia "wants peace" while Trump keeps twisting Ukraine's arms.

They’re going to cut Medicaid

We now know the truth: House Republicans cannot meet their budget goals without cutting Medicaid. Keep speaking up and calling your Representatives. This cannot pass. www.cbsnews.com/news/house-r...

Not only is this the second explosion in a row for Musk, but this launch wasn't even supposed to happen—as the investigation into the _last_ one isn't done yet. The only reason this launch went forward is Trump's FAA cleared it prematurely as a favor to Musk. Now FL travelers are paying the price.

Wow! 😲

Good news!

Arab leaders adopted an Egyptian reconstruction plan for Gaza that would cost $53 billion and avoid resettling Palestinians, in contrast to U.S. President Donald Trump's 'Middle East Riviera' vision, according to a copy of the plan reut.rs/4i5hGGk

Trudeau: "Every country is very aware that if the American government is willing to do this to their own closest ally, neighbor, and friend, everyone is vulnerable to a trade war."

They can’t decide on which message they want to send

The U.S. surrenders to Russia: It’s Tuesday. There are 609 days until the midterm elections. The U.S. surrenders to Russia, Mr. Free Speech declares war on college protests and prices are about to be higher than Don Jr.

Warren Buffett, the famed investor who runs the sprawling conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway, described tariffs as “an act of war” in an interview with CBS.

Yay!!! Thanks to the team at @lastweektonight.com, the Warners Bros copyright claim on this video has been dropped! Nashville’s Nosiest Bitch is back!

After all the Red Carpets, the ceremony itself, the after party & the after-after parties, nothing compares to the warm welcome upon my return home. 🐕 🐶 🐾 #Oscars2025

I've already done that!

HAPPENING NOW: Judge Amy Berman Jackson has been on a tear for much of this hearing on CFPB dismantling. She's concerned the agency will be "choked out of existence before I get to rule on the merits." She wants an evidentiary hearing.

What a great game! GO VOLS!! 🍊

MONDAY AT 6 PM: The stunning revelations surrounding a hate group looking to expand their presence - and why they’ve chosen Tennessee!

Exactly

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

This is what presidential looks like!

🚨 BREAKING: President Macron reacts to the dispute between Zelensky, Trump, and Vance at the White House. “You must respect those who fight,” Macron said, adding that it is crucial to remember that there is “an aggressor and a victim." “Russia is the aggressor, Ukraine is the victim of aggression”

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

This is priceless! 😂

Hey, Marco Rubio. Enjoying your decision to throw away whatever last shreds of your dignity to serve this disgraceful human?

This presser was a horror show. Ukraine will not have US support going forward, because Trump and Vance are completely lost. Europe will step-up and this war will continue. Trump blew this bigger than any foriegn policy folly in recent history.

The emotions of the Ukrainian ambassador to the US during the emotional dialogue between the presidents…

Trump and Vance yell and trash talk Zelensky while sucking Putin’s dick. That’s where we are at. A century of global leadership vaporized in a month.

Elon Musk said DOGE made a mistake by cutting USAID’s Ebola prevention but it had been “restored.” That’s not true, current and former officials told me and @johnphudson.bsky.social. “There have been no efforts to ‘turn on’” Ebola prevention, said Nidhi Bouri, who oversaw team until January.

Tim Burchett votes yes. massive cuts to health care for poor folks — all to set up massive tax cuts for the rich. They never cared about the debt.

INBOX: “Burchett’s vote will hurt East TN.” @KnoxDems rip @RepTimBurchett for caving on the @HouseGOP budget slashing $880 BILLION in health care for poor folks to cut TRILLIONS in taxes for the rich, increasing 🇺🇸 debt by $20 TRILLION over 10 years They ask for a town hall👀

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court BLOCKS Trump administration from implementing OMB funding pause. "The public’s interest in not having trillions of dollars arbitrarily frozen cannot be overstated." A big victory for @democracyforward.org. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.
