I’m just an old-fashioned conservative who thinks that criminals should go to prison after receiving due process, and not to El Salvador or to the White House without it.

Orange guy golfs. Failing businessman takes over. Eyeliner guy is sidelined. Cabinet secretaries are folding faster than tents in a storm. What in the ever-loving f? I miss the days of mutually assured nuclear annihilation. At least we knew the enemies were outside our borders and not within them.

Every night in March, I will be posting updates of where we are at for the fundraiser for gender affirming care. In just 6 hours we've been able to raise over 6k dollars for other Trans people to get the help they need. @pointofprideorg and I are hoping we can reach 300k before March 30th

The line editor in me can’t help but post this.

This sign is much too wordy. Protest signs demand concision.

Better would be:

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Senator Ron Johnson email header.
Finding Waste, Fraud, and Abuse
in Federal Spending

February 19, 2025

 

Dear ,

Sen. Johnson’s top concern as a U.S. Senator has always been our federal debt and deficit, and the ongoing spending that is mortgaging our children’s future. He calls it immoral. Sen. Johnson has consistently and persistently called out bloated spending, Big Government, and unaccountable bureaucrats who have thwarted his oversight.

President Trump’s launch of a temporary advisory committee β€” the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) β€” with Elon Musk as a special government (non-paid) employee, is a new approach to correcting waste, fraud, and abuse within the executive branch of the federal government.

Here are some additional links to answer questions regarding DOGE: 

DOGE'S AUTHORIZATION.
DOGE'S ACCESS TO THE US TREASURY DEPARTMENT. 
DOGE'S EFFORT TO OPTIMIZE THE FEDERAL WORKFORCE.
DOGE'S CURRENT FINDING OF WASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSE AT USAID.
DOGE already found questionable spending in our own state.

X posts: Senator Ron Johnson: All $7,000 billion of federal spending needs this kind of scrutiny. If given, the public will demand much lower spending levels. Will we listen to hard-working Americans who are paying for the waste, fraud, and abuse, or the caterwauling big government leftists and their allies in the legacy media?

Even though this wasn't a surprise, I truly gagged at the response from this feckless sack of watery viscera. (He also visited Russia on July 4, 2018, to talk to pUTin about election interference.)

JD Vance, a Yale Law graduate, doesn't understand Marbury v. Madison, the most famous case in Constitutional law, which established judicial review of the other two branches of government.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: So here’s how it’s going to go downβ€”this is going to be very rough. But the big wake-up call is for our American friends.

For example, Kentuckyβ€”the number one purchaser of Kentucky spirits in the world is Canada, and all our provinces have just pulled it off the shelves.

The head of the FAA was fired because he held Elon Musk accountable for SpaceX safety omissions.

Donald and Elon don't care about regular Americans dying in plane crashes, they only care about themselves getting richer.

We say that people don't notice constitutional regime collapse because it comes on too slowly but I'm not sure how much faster it could be happening; we are literally at concentration camps on day 9.
