"Lies, Incompetence & National Security": Kudos to Jeffrey Goldberg's excellent work at The Atlantic in exposing this appalling breach.

Imagine being in Moscow and reading highly classified messages over a commercial app that US forces are about to strike Yemen. Even without an authorized person in this chat, that alone rises all red flags. The line between sloppiness and malice is quite thin. Absolutely mind blowing.

The IRS could collect $500 billion LESS in tax revenue this year due to DOGE cuts to the agency. A big chunk of that will come from the rich underpaying their taxes. Meanwhile, only $7.7 billion of DOGE "savings" can actually be verified. So much for efficiency. fortune.com/2025/03/24/i...

In 2023, 13.5% of Americans struggled to buy food at some point — the highest rate in nearly a decade. How is the Trump regime addressing this crisis? By cutting $1 billion from federal programs that support food banks across the country. The cruelty is the point.

I wrote on the Signal leak. The White House, DNI, DCIA, DOD & NSA all deny that the group chat included classified information. DNI said that under oath to Congress. On the basis of the evidence available so far, I struggle to see how that could be true. www.economist.com/united-state...

Taxpayers shouldn't have to foot the bill for DOGE's decision to cut the federal workforce by abruptly removing employees and placing them on paid leave while they sort out terminations later. That's not efficiency.

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

DOGE isn't just cutting vital government services. Each federal job loss could also result in the loss of at least one additional worker in the private sector. Working people having less money in their pockets to spend stifles local economies. What’s “efficient” about that?
