Defiant Fed

Photo of an X post by Scott MacFarlane (@MacFarlaneNews ) featuring a screenshot of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) homepage. The post text reads: "The banner on the homepage of the U.S. Dept of Housing and Urban Development now splashes an alert about 'The Radical Left in Congress...'" followed by "It's quite something to see that on a .gov website operator by government employees." The screenshot shows a banner on the HUD website with the text: "The Radical Left in Congress shut down the government. HUD will use available resources to help Americans in need." The background includes an image of houses at sunset and a quote: "God blessed us with this great nation, and together, we can increase sufficiency for Americans to climb the economic ladder toward a brighter future - Secretary Scott Turner."

Similar messages went up on other government sites, all in violation of the law. If you think this makes you look less culpable, Donald, you’re sorely mistaken.

Zero.

He showed that years ago. They don't care.

This.

TRUMP: That's why I sued the New York Times two days ago for a lot of money

KARL: A judge just threw that out

TRUMP: I'm winning. I'm winning the cases.

My biggest shock of 2025 and through the recent news cycle is not how morally repugnant some of the people in my life are, but how absolutely stupid they are.

Monarez: I tried to hold ‘the line on scientific integrity’ The former CDC director was fired last month after declining to carry out Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s directives.

Ousted CDC director Susan Monarez told senators that she was fired for “holding the line on scientific integrity.”

GSA rescinded its March RIF of some Public Buildings Service staff today. These federal employees have been on paid admin leave for months, when they could and would have been working for the American people. Efficiency?

RFK Jr. must resign.

When you’ve done a great job at DOGE and investors are confident in your abilities

Make it tank more.

Chuck Borges is an #AltCitizen of the highest order. Thank you for your service, sir. Keep up the fight. ✊✊✊

The "former senior DOGE official now at the Social Security Administration" is none other than Edward Coristine AKA "Big Balls". From Wikipedia, "5/31/2025, Coristine became a full-time GSA employee at grade 15 (the top civil service grade). 6/26/2025 he resigned from GSA and then hired by the SSA."

We have a dictator in the White House.

How do I know?

The dictator told us.

Dear White House Press Corp:

This is the new tacky AF ‘Rose Garden at the White House.

Trump now has the “warfighters” picking up trash near the White House. www.fox5dc.com/news/nationa...

He ruined the Oval and the Rose Garden. GSA won’t tell him “No.” Congress must stop any and all work on a ballroom. Use his own money and build it on his own property, Not Ours.

Meet the Trump appointee apparently maintaining 'unheard of' ties to Tesla Thomas Shedd, who heads the Technology Transformation Services at the General Services Administration, reported on his public financial disclosures that he is “on a leave of absence” from Tesla in a r...

Surprising no one, Musk's man within GSA still works for Tesla at the same time as he works for the government.

@autost.bsky.social did you think no one would find out?

“I have the right to do anything I want to do—I’m the president of the United States,” says the lawless and unfettered Trump musing about being a dictator.

This is what John Roberts, the Supreme Court’s supermajority and over 77 million Americans have done to our beloved country.

If you’re a convicted felon and your character witness is your dear old friend, the convicted child sex trafficker and enabler of your other dear old friend, the most notorious raper of children in modern history, you’re definitely a total piece of shit.

Who will win: one trillion gallons of black paint sold at insane GSA markup versus One Pair of Gloves

It's really embarrassing that almost every leader in Europe has to show up to the White House to keep the American President from trash talking an ally. We'd obviously have a lot less problems if they were there everyday and everything was broadcast live 24/7. He's such a coward.

Not complicated.

Marco Rubio is a disgrace.
