Every single Democratic Senator voted for Marco Rubio as Sec of State!

Every media outlet in the country should be talking about the murder of Wadee Alfayoumi. There should be discussion panels on cable news about the bigotry toward Muslims. We should be displaying commemorative lights for Wadee in his honor on our skyscrapers.

RIP Wadee Alfayoumi

Hi, former White House intern, DNC communications staffer, and re-election team partner here:

One does not ‘slip’ into the Oval Office. Does not. Period, ever. That’s not a thing.

In an extraordinary display of public support, heads of state, heads of government, and foreign ministers from all over Europe and Canada are posting in support of Ukraine in response to the Oval Office meeting with Trump, Zelenskyy, and Vance.

Fearing repercussions from your government. Fearing the sudden loss of healthcare for your whole family. Fearing that what the government intends for you is mere sadism—trauma without purpose or justification. This is what evil men do when we let them spend a lifetime doing evil without consequence.

I wonder how many of them voted for the Orange POS

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I did this earlier.

Agree. Pete could fact check and do a briefing everyday

JD Vance’s 12-year-old relative denied heart transplant because she is unvaccinated “I thought, wow. So, it’s not about the kid. It’s not about saving her life,” Adaline Deal’s mom said of the decision to deny her daughter a transplant.

This story is making the rounds on X & beginning to get pickup on news coverage.

Vaccines are required for a heart transplant bc the immune system is suppressed to avoid rejection. The idea that an exception should be made bc of an elite distant relative is bizarre.

Trump just fired USAID inspector general Paul Martin—one day after he exposed how Trump’s foreign aid freeze & mass firings have made it easier for U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund terrorist groups like Hamas & ISIS.

James Comer had 2 years to dig into all this supposed govt corruption that Musk is “discovering.” That’s what Oversight Committee is supposed to do. Instead, he spent 2 years on Hunter Biden - which resulted in nothing except a James Comer book deal.

ABA It has been three weeks since Inauguration Day. Most Americans recognize that newly elected leaders bring change. That is expected. But most Americans also expect that changes will take place in accordance with the rule of law and in an orderly manner that respects the lives of affected individuals and the work they have been asked to perform. Instead, we see wide-scale affronts to the rule of law itself, such as attacks on constitutionally protected birthright citizenship, the dismantling of USAID and the attempts to criminalize those who support lawful programs to eliminate bias and enhance diversity. We have seen attempts at wholesale dismantling of departments and entities created by Congress without seeking the required congressional approval to change the law. There are efforts to dismiss employees with little regard for the law and protections they merit, and social media announcements that disparage and appear to be motivated by a desire to inflame without any stated factual basis. This is chaotic. It may appeal to a few. But it is wrong. And most Americans recognize it is wrong. It is also contrary to the rule of law. The American Bar Association supports the rule of law. That means holding governments, including our own, accountable under law. We stand for a legal process that is orderly and fair. We have consistently urged the administrations of both parties to adhere to the rule of law. We stand in that familiar place again today. And we do not stand alone. Our courts stand for the rule of law as well.

Someone at the American Bar Association ate their Wheaties this morning.

Serious question, because this is where we’re headed…

Who’s going to hold Donald Trump and Elon Musk accountable if he defies court rulings? Who’s going to stop him?

People are already dying because of what Musk and Trump have done in the last two weeks.

The Private Equity Hatchet Man Leading the Lost Boys of DOGE If Tom Krause is looking for government waste, ‘he should look in the mirror,’ says an ex-employee.

NEW: A lot has been written about the young DOGE kids but what about their headmaster Tom Krause? Moe Tkacik finds that he was the cleanup CEO in one of the most scandalous recent private equity buyouts, adopting the same techniques of ransacking the workforce that we're seeing DOGE do now:

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections.

Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

DEMOCRATS in Congress, take note!

📌 Reps. Judy Chu (D-CA) and Gwen Moore (D-WI) walked into Mike Johnson’s office unannounced and demanded answers on why Elon Musk’s people got access to a sensitive Treasury payment system.

More of this energy, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social ,
@schumer.senate.gov

The changes made by Elon's coders are focused on "creating new paths to block payments and possibly leave less visibility into what has been blocked."

This is a backdoor. Elon's coders are creating a backdoor into the US Treasury. This is incredibly dangerous both because of its intended use (by Elon and Trump) and the risk of other actors exploiting a major security vulnerability to cause a massive disruption to the US government.

President Trump Proposes War Crime

"Stop the Coup!"

Scene at Treasury.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

Congratulations on a job well done to all the kids on college campuses who bravely stood up to Genocide Joe

Total USAID annual spending to provide food, medicine, shelter and other services to impoverished countries around the world: $38 billion

Total increase in Elon Musk's personal net worth since the November election: $156 billion

Passing on a note from a colleague: People with federal student loans should download their files IMMEDIATELY. These files are currently on the studentaid.gov website, which may get deleted if Trump follows through with his EO to shut down DOE

JUST IN: Ontario Premier Doug Ford says he is canceling a $68 million contract with Elon Musk’s Starlink internet services in response to Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada.

“Ontario won’t do business with people hellbent on destroying our economy,” Ford said.

Trump reveals messaging strategy of tying tariffs to “the border” and “fentanyl.”

Expect MAGA to continue repeating these two terms as justification for anything and everything in Trump’s agenda.
