He nails it.

DOGE’s expenses have risen above 40 million, with weekly costs now exceeding 10 million. We will release an updated DOGE staff list soon.

Unfortunately I won’t be to DC in time, but this rally for Ukraine is happening in Lincoln memorial. Attend if you can and Slava Ukrainii!

Doge is an advisory agency. It is not a legally recognized department-stop using the name to legitimize its actions. This is on 47 and the Republican Party

How about asking Congressman Hurd about this? He does not answer his phones or respond to calls or emails. www.summitdaily.com/news/trump-f...

"We [the Executive Branch] *are* the federal law" is a dark horse candidate for most Hitlerian Trump quote from 2025. Surprised this did not get even more media coverage and provoke even more outrage. The literal, actual truth, of course, is that the federal government has three co-equal branches.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

One might ask, "Is Europe really ready to go to war over Ukraine?" What you need to realize is that this is not just about Ukraine, this is about Russia invading sovereign countries. Where does this end?

Ukraine has shown all of us around the world, what passion and patriotism looks like. For the past 3 years, they have stood tall and strong in the fight for democracy, sovereignty, freedom and humanity. Ukraine is all of us.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said on Friday that he was firing Admiral Lisa Franchetti, the first female officer to rise to the Navy’s top job of Chief of Naval Operations, and would be looking for her replacement.

Trump was thrilled to announce tonight that he has terminated America’s most senior military officer — Gen. C.Q. Brown, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Trump failed to provide a reason as to why he abruptly fired Brown from his position. It is, in fact, the first time that the…

It would be far less time-consuming to just document when he tells the truth. shorturl.at/tohgb

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

BREAKING: The Associated Press sues three Trump administration officials over access to presidential events, citing the First Amendment.

Congressman Jeff Hurd in Colorado is a coward. His phone lines go to voicemail, he does not answer emails. This is the Republican Party. Please share to expose them.
