"Musk is calling veterans, grandmas, & disabled people 'parasites'. Let that sink in."

"Musk just canceled a multi-million$ contract bc the small bus that won the competitive bidding process is owned by a woman. I looked it up.

He's NOT exposing fraud & cutting waste. He's deleting grants awarded to women & black people."

If this passes, what exactly would we need the US legislative branch for? If the Executive branch can pass laws by decree (as they effectively have been via Executive Orders) and can also control spending via this measure, what would be Congress’ remaining function?

"Wall Street's touching the stove moment might end up being not tariffs or debt default, but rather DOGE techbros causing a bank run by carelessly demonstrating they can now yank funds out of commercial bank accounts on a whim.

A very pure distilled demonstration of no rule of law, no capitalism."

VoteVets Senior Advisor LTC (Ret.) Alex Vindman sounds the alarm.

SecDef Hegseth’s decision to block Ukraine from NATO is a full capitulation to Putin—emboldening Russian aggression and putting U.S. Troops at risk.

This isn’t “America First.” It’s Russia First. - VoteVets

Judge allows #Trump to proceed w/legally questionable #buyouts

A federal judge allowed Trump to carry out his worker buyout as it continues to burn down the #USgovernment, setting back #unions & the justice system interested in stopping his plan.

Judge George O'Toole rejected a request by unions representing >800k #FederalEmployees for an order blocking the program. Unions have called the admin's buyout offer to civilian employees unlawful.

Don't forget that Kash Patel appeared on Peters' program multiple times, though he claimed not to know Peters when asked about those appearances during his Senate confirmation hearing. Even Peters said that Patel was clearly lying. https://www.threads.net/@rightwingwatchdotorg/post/DFd2NowTel3

Egypt's President Sisi to not attend any White House talks if Gaza displacement on agenda, Egyptian sources say | Reuters

https://archive.ph/CwVUj

It was never about “free speech.”

Yesterday was the greatest display of American weakness, and pure evil, ever seen in the White House. But the media still won’t say the quiet parts.

This regime is not a government, it is a murderous, racist Crusade.

Say it. Or die regretting you didn’t.

The Army and other service branches are abandoning recruiting efforts at a prestigious Black engineering event this week, turning down access to a key pool of highly qualified potential applicants amid President Donald Trump's purge of diversity initiatives in the military.

"It's f---ing racist," one active-duty Army general told Military.com on the condition of anonymity to avoid retaliation. "For the Army now, it's 'Blacks need not apply' and it breaks my heart."
