Yes, let’s talk about WASTE. There are no limits.

Because of DOGE, the Trump Administration is going to spend $130,000 to burn $800,000 of food that USAID intended for starving children overseas but couldn't deliver due to the massive cuts to staff and services.

DOGE isn't eliminating waste; they're literally creating it.

For MAGA, Ignorance is Strength Research cuts aren’t about shrinking government, they’re about killing science

"two first-rate economists, David Cutler and Ed Glaeser, have made a stab at estimating the impact of cuts at NIH. Their analysis suggests that these cuts might save $500 billion in federal spending over the next 25 years — while imposing more than $8 trillion in losses."

'Blatantly unconstitutional’: Democracy professor on ICE tactics ICE targeting students who have criticized the Trump administration is “blatantly unconstitutional,” warns professor of democracy Lucan Ahmad Way. “You can't simply racially profile or profile people based on their national origin and start pulling them off the streets,” says Joyce Vance. “That, by definition, is a police state.” With an explosion of new funding for ICE, as part of the GOP’s megabill, there’s yet more reason to be alarmed. With a rapid expansion of ICE, the danger, says Vance, “is that the people in charge are no longer the career officials with training who understand loyalty to the Constitution. These are quite literally people who understand loyalty to Donald Trump.”

This explanation by @velshi.com of what Trump is doing with ICE, while hollowing out the FBI, is dead on the money. We need to pay attention now, before it's too late. I had the good fortune to join him for this segment. Do not miss this. www.msnbc.com/ali-velshi/w...

A worker was killed. Dozens detained.

Dr. Jonathan Caravello, A CSU faculty member and US citizen, was brutalized & disappeared by ICE for observing.

Trump’s ICE thugs are escalating terror in our communities. Release them ALL.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

DHS and ICE must be reined in. If you see them “roving” in such patrols, call it out as illegal and document it.

Florida lawmakers allowed into ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ say detainees packed into cages | CNN Deep in the hazardous and ecologically fragile Everglades, hundreds of migrants are confined in cages in a makeshift tent detention facility Florida’s Republican governor calls “safe and secure” and D...

Cruelty for cruelty’s sake. Trump’s anti-immigrationism is an exercise in sadism.

“They are essentially packed into cages, wall-to-wall humans, 32 detainees per cage,” Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz…said during a news conference following their tour.”

"The masks frequently worn by agents make ICE seem like the type of secret police that operates in authoritarian regimes. But they are apparently meant to keep the police secret."

The Death of US AID The most consequential legacy of DOGE will be human misery on a massive scale

New, from me: Elon Musk talks about saving our species. But the greatest legacy of his time in government will be to condemn millions to death because he could not discern reality from a paranoid fantasy.
How Musk and Trump killed USAID.

Rep. Dingell slams GOP for passing reconciliation bill Michigan 6th District Congresswoman Debbie Dingell says passage of the Republicans’ reconciliation of President Trump’s "big, beautiful bill" is dangerous and will have detrimental effects across…

“Kids are going to be hungry. Seniors are going to be hungry. It’s the largest cut in history of food assistance. Our food banks are really struggling.” - @DebbieDingell.house.gov

Hillsdale Hospital: 'Big Beautiful Bill' could spell disaster for rural healthcare If enacted into law, Hillsdale Hospital CEO Jeremiah J. Hodshire said, the "Big Beautiful Bill" could force the closure of rural hospital birthing centers or even entire hospital systems.

Cuts to Medicaid will impact every corner of Michigan.

McMorrow: What Trump has done is weaponize us against each other, when everybody needs hospitals, good schools, and health care.

It has become this battle for scarcity, when we’re the wealthiest country in the world. We should not be fighting each other for our basic needs.

An issue I don’t believe has been addressed regarding the deep cuts to SNAP, is how many grocery stores in low income areas will go out of business. Mom and pop, family owned markets. For many, almost all of their customers are on food assistance. The Krogers will just close their doors and move on.

Can confirm this email is authentic — and about nothing in it is true.

Social Security income is still taxed. This bill does nothing to change that.

It’s willful disinformation on the part of SSA. It’s a lie.

Trump spoke of “shylocks,” which is one of the most recognizable antisemitic terms in modern English. Watch who tries to explain this away.

Mike Johnson just said if you are for reducing the deficit, this bill is for you.

The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit.

They just lie.

FYI it seems Barrett’s phones are overwhelmed. Keep calling!

If you are trying to predict or understand anything happening in this, Congress, you only need to know two words: cult, and cowardice

The private sector lost 33,000 jobs in June, badly missing expectations for a 100,000 increase, ADP says Economists polled by Dow Jones forecasted an increase of 100,000 for the month.

Breaking: The US lost 33,000 jobs in June. They were expecting to *gain* 100,000.

Jeffries: "All we need are 4 Republicans to join us in support of their constituents, to have John McCain-level courage, and stand up in defense of the healthcare of the American people. What type of party would bring a bill to the House floor that rips away Medicaid from those in need?"

Murkowski votes yes and hopes it doesn’t pass.

Hawley says it’s terrible for his constituents and the middle class … yet votes yes.

It’s pretty simple: words don’t matter. Votes do.

VP Vance has cast the deciding vote in the Senate to cut Medicaid, take away food assistance, blow up the deficit, and add tax breaks for the wealthiest.

This bill is unpopular because it is wrong.

Congress votes this week, but it’s our voices - and our votes - that will have the final say.

This is devastating… The Senate has passed the GOP domestic policy bill, which advances Trump’s agenda, by a vote of 51–50, with Vice President JD Vance casting the tiebreaking vote.

The GOP just collectively voted to add $4 Trillion to the deficit.

Don't call it Alligator Alcatraz. Call it what it is:
💥 A concentration camp. 💥

#FuckYouRonDeSantis

It shouldn't get lost that just today, Senate Republicans have voted to close nursing homes, close rural hospitals, and cut food stamp benefits for children and veterans.

BREAKING: Republicans just blocked my amendment to ensure Veterans, foster kids and the homeless aren’t denied SNAP benefits.

There is no one Republicans won’t betray to ram through tax cuts for their billionaire buddies.
