Wasserman Schultz: "I think this important fact should sink in for everyone: Donald Trump, in his first month in office, has fired more veterans than any president in history."

Revoked security clearances of anyone that works at the firm, cancel any and all contracts with the firm, some other bullshit

It would be great for Al Green to see a big bump for standing up tonight. secure.actblue.com/donate/al-gr...

That’s only the formal chain of command, too. The actual chain is Putin, Musk, Trump, then everyone else. Maybe some Russian oligarchs. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Alina Habba on veterans who have been fired from government jobs: "Perhaps they're not fit to have a job at this moment."

CRASH 📉📉📉

The Atlanta Fed’s GDPNow model now estimates U.S. real GDP growth for Q1 at -2.8%, down even further from last week’s forecast of -1.5%.

Just a month ago, the estimate was about +4%.

I've seen some videos... WTF???

Thank you, Vermont! (And fuck you, JD)

A lot of Americans have problems with OUR so called president not respecting the office. You know what they say about putting lipstick (or in this case, a suit) on a pig.

This is absolutely insane.

This is some juvenile fun. Feel free to take the heritage foundation quiz on DOGE! (I probably just put myself on the mandatory “wellness camps” attendance list).

Satisfying. I’m sure pointless but still satisfying. Thank you.

Meh. We all know the nominations are just for show, anyhow.

Something that’s very clear is that Trump is old and checked out. He wants to play the role of president but has zero interest in doing the job and is happy to outsource the real work to Musk, Vought and a crew of feral zealots.

The richest person who has ever lived has simply decided, out of a combination of boredom, resentment, and a thirst for power, that hundreds of thousands of the poorest children in the world should starve to death and an entire political party thinks that's just fine. bsky.app/profile/greg...

Former foster parent here. I agree 100% that the long term ripple effect of these cuts will be devastating to children that deserve so much more from the grownups in charge. I’m appalled.

Same thing in Colorado. My heart is so broken tonight.

NEW: I just asked Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett if she had a message to Elon Musk.

What would she say to him? Here was her answer:

“Fuck off.”

If you voted for this you can go fuck yourself.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

You should credit @marisakabas.bsky.social for breaking this. Independent journalists supporting independent journalists.

FAFO, for the 10000 time. If only SOMEONE had predicted this?!

Complete disappointment. Although there seems to be a lot of that going around.

ALEXANDER: Fraud is a crime. Have you turned over evidence of fraud to the Justice Department, and when should we expect to see those indictments?

LEAVITT: It's a clever question

Idiocracy was a documentary

Ax falls on elite group of Ph.D.s training to lead U.S. public health labs Most of the fellows in CDC’s highly competitive Laboratory Leadership Service were fired last weekend

The CDC has an ultra-competitive 2-year program to train "the best of the best" to lead public health labs.
Most of the current class were terminated over the weekend. www.science.org/content/arti... (by @meredithwadman.bsky.social)

"Elon Musk is the undisputed champion of making money for Elon Musk. As effectively the CEO of the United States of America? Very bad. Embarrassing, honestly..."

Because fuck John Fetterman. How’s that Bondi vote working out for ya, guy?
