GOP Rep Hageman pointed out that the January 6th committee "destroyed evidence" of depositions and questioning. The January 6 Committee was not a judicial proceding, so there was no obligation to preserve it, and given Donald Trump's mania for retribution, that was a very wise decision. #jacksmith

It's perfectly clear that the sole purpose of Republican questions in the Jack Smith hearing is to provide sound bites for Fox opinion programming. #jacksmith

GOP Rep Tiffany accused Jack Smith of helping Lois Lerner, Director of the IRS, persecute conservative PACs during the Obama Admin, but immediately following the Citizens United decision, scores of ScamPacs filed with the IRS for the sole purpose of preying on gullible conservative donors.

Jim Jordan's big gotcha is that Jack Smith never *officially* declined to include Cassidy Hutchinson on a witness list. That's it. That's his proof that there was a massive conspiracy against Donald Trump re: January 6th.

Appeals court temporarily blocks judge's ruling to return control of National Guard to California The court said it would hold a hearing on the matter on June 17.

Mike Stranz from the National Farmers Union on C-SPAN Washington Journal this morning. What he says is extremely alarming. Farmers are trying to figure out what to plant in an extremely unstable market environment which changes from day to day at the whim of the president. Tariffs, deportations, firings at USDA, agribusiness monopolies, SNAP cuts are creating a perfect storm for the destruction of American agriculture.

Trump is using antisemitism as a pretext for a war on the first amendment | Judith Levine The Trump administration is not interested in combating antisemitism. It just wants to silence its opponents instead

Ted Mitchell of the American Council on education on C-SPAN Washington Journal this morning pointing out that Trump and Musk are destroying the government's ability to root out fraud in the education sector. #TrumpUniversity

Let's imagine that GM is forced to fire everyone hired in the past 2 years. Cars and trucks stop rolling off the assembly lines because some of the thousands of things that have to be done to build cars and trucks are not being done. That is not efficiency. It's a surgeon with a chainsaw. #DOGE

Mr Dodaro probably knows more about government functions and efficiency than anyone else alive. He knows where the money is wasted where the intractable bureaucracies are. His knowledge is extremely impressive, but DOGE is designed to create headlines not improve government.

On C-SPAN Washington Journal, US Comptroller General, head of the GAO, says that the DOGE mass firings are not the best way to achieve efficiency. It would be better to first determine which functions of government should be targeted for reduction or elimination, then adjust staffing accordingly.

The federal payroll consumes less than 6% of the federal budget. Workers are being fired not to save money, but to disable our government, the only entity on the planet which can stand up to the oligarchs.

Trump and Vance are clearly allied with Vladimir Putin.

IMPORTANT: Russia is a mafia state, one of the most, if not THE most, corrupt on the planet. None of that corruption could exist without the approval of Trump's role model and sugar daddy, Vladimir Putin.

Rick Scott tries to rewrite history on $1.7 billion Medicare fraud controversy The Republican U.S. senator and former Florida governor cast himself as a victim of “political persecution” outside the Manhattan courthouse where former President Donald Trump is on trial.

Waste, fraud, and abuse? Why is Rick Scott not in prison?

Trump's freeze stalls federal firefighter hiring Crews helped battle the deadly Los Angeles-area wildfires, and now some worry a shortfall will weaken response capabilities as fire season approaches.

NEW: President Trump's hiring freeze has stopped the onboarding of seasonal federal firefighters, including those who work for agencies called on to help battle the devastating L.A. fires, creating a potential shortfall ahead of the next fire season.

Do I have this right? Elon Musk - the guy in charge of preventing wasteful spending - dropped $40M on a Super Bowl ad?

We could permanently house 800 homeless veterans for $40M. Or provide five million meals to the hungry. Or replace lead pipes in 8,500 homes.

We have to assume that #Musk has installed malware at the US #Treasury. #technocracy

The U.S. Constitution states in Article I, Section 8 that “The Congress shall have the Power to lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises.”

Trump has clearly exceeded his authority to impose tariffs and should be taken to court.

Professional dullard Brian Blase worked for Trump in his last regime. When asked if RFK is qualified to run HHS, said that yes he's qualified because Trump nominated him. When asked about chemicals in our food he talked about the food pyramid and carbohydrates. #rfkjr #healthpolicy #robertkennedy
