The Measles outbreak is moving closer to #Iowa

So… the very same Republicans who said they were cutting SNAP because hunger could be “addressed by food banks”, just cut $500 MILLION in funding for…

You guessed it.

Food banks.

So look at that. DOGE has cost the US Treasury fucking half a trillion dollars. HALF A TRILLION DOLLARS. This is your cost savings.

TIME MAG has a piece by a reporter embedded at the El Salvadoran prison who watched as Andry, a gay asylum-seeking Venezuelan barber they said is a gang member but is not, was slapped and screamed for his mother as they held him down.

Horrific.

Important. Either Trump is so far gone mentally he doesn’t know what he’s doing, or people are acting in his name without his knowledge. This was an order with enormous implications, and the President of the United States says he didn’t do it.

For those who've followed my COVID journey since December 2019, when my pancreas was damaged by the virus and I became a type 1 diabetic - I'm no longer a type 1. My pancreas has healed enough that I have gone a week now with no insulin injections for the first time in four years. Feeling good!

Social Security Says DOGE Ruling Could Force Agency to Shut Down The Trump administration is threatening to all but shut down the Social Security Administration in response to a judge’s ruling blocking activities by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency — an action that could delay payments to millions of beneficiaries caught in the middle of the legal battle.

The Trump regime is threatening to shut down the Social Security Administration in response to a court ruling blocking DOGE from further infiltrating the agency.

If your Social Security check is late or doesn't arrive at all, remember who is to blame.

Trump’s Commerce Secretary told people to buy Tesla stock last night.

The White House announced that it will use Starlink internet earlier this week.

And Trump held a Tesla showcase at the White House last week.

The robber barons of the first Gilded Age would be jealous.

RFK Jr.’s Prescription for Bird Flu on Farms: Let It Spread The health secretary has suggested allowing the virus to spread, so as to identify birds that may be immune. Such an experiment would be disastrous, scientists say.

amazing putin and this host guy laugh about trump being a huge cuck live on camera here, as he reminds putin that trump is waiting by the phone

Social Security Administration moves forward with changes that could force thousands to file claims in person The agency announced Tuesday it was putting in place a new anti-fraud step for claims that would require Americans who start their claims by phone to verify their identity using the online system or provide documentation in person at a field office. The change, driven by Elon Musk's U.S. DOGE Service, could cause particular hardships for the elderly and disabled Americans who have limited mobility

This is not cutting waste, fraud and abuse. This is chaos and anarchy.

DOJ Argues Trump Could Fire All Agency Heads Who Are Women or Over 40 A Justice Department attorney made the argument in response to a hypothetical scenario posed by a federal judge.

Elon Musk’s Starlink Expands Across White House Complex Trump administration officials said the company donated the internet service, saying the gift had been vetted by the lawyer overseeing ethics issues in the White House Counsel’s Office.

Hi, I'm the guy who used to oversee the federal government's agency IT telecommunications contracts. This is extremely bad. There is absolutely no need for this. Not only is it a huge security exposure, but the simplest explanation for this is that it is meant to be a security exposure.

Trying to imagine Biden withholding disaster funds from red states unless they first instituted gun control

If Vladimir Putin himself had invaded America and come up with a plan to destroy our economy and wreck the cohesion of our society, he could not have done better than Donald Trump has done on his own with the help of Elon Musk.

In case you doubted that he’s a russian asset, know that VOA was instrumental in keeping the hope of freedoms alive in the Soviet Union and is hated with a passion by putin for exactly that. This is no accident.
