Trump’s America. Stealing this and posting it on FB. This picture is worth a million words.

The house has been out of session for 81 of the last 93 days.

This means we're being taxed without representation by an elite, wealthy, religious ruling class who are refusing to provide basic care for its citizens and are instead enriching themselves with our tax money.

Intended distraction. And since we already know about ICE and Epstein and blowing up boats in the Caribbean and the government shut down…one has to wonder what he’s doing that’s even worse.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social takes the Jimmy Kimmel suspension a little deeper.
I can not stress this enough: without the foundational protections of the First Amendment, the Bill of Rights will collapse into a meaningless heap.

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power.

This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations β€” from television networks to newspapers β€” are capitulating to these threats.

Stop Trump’s D.C. Takeover Trump sent the National Guard into Washington, D.C. to intimidate his opponents and distract from his failed agenda. Email Congress now and demand they end his takeover of our nation’s capital.

Send letter with this. Easy! Trump declared a fake emergency in D.C. and sent in the military. Congress can end this abuse of powerβ€”join @standupamerica.com & demand action now: act.standupamerica.com/letters/cte-...

Fox News is busy with the important stuff, like a meaningless restaurant logo redesign and Snoop Dogg's granddaughter finally watching a movie that came out three years ago.

Dear Canada-
Please accept our deepest apologies from all decent Americans embarrassed by the obnoxious trolling from our man-baby-in-chief who is lacking in both intelligence & any impulse-control whatsoever.

Just a reminder: having a functional moral compass right now is going to make you feel bad all the time; don’t mistakenly hate yourself for that.

Important thing about this jaw-dropping story is that even if Jeff Goldberg hadn't been invited into the chat, Hegseth was sending out detailed military stuff over a civilian app that *even the other people in the conversation probably didn't need to know about*

"Need to know" means "need."

Scatterplot titled β€œEmpirical Evidence of Ideological Targeting in Federal Layoffs: Agencies seen as liberal are significantly more likely to face DOGE layoffs.”
	β€’	The x-axis represents Perceived Ideological Leaning of federal agencies, ranging from -2 (Most Liberal) to +2 (Most Conservative), based on survey responses from over 1,500 federal executives.
	β€’	The y-axis shows Agency Size (Number of Staff) on a logarithmic scale from 1,000 to 1,000,000.

Each point represents a federal agency:
	β€’	Red dots indicate agencies that experienced DOGE layoffs.
	β€’	Gray dots indicate agencies with no layoffs.

Key Observations:
	β€’	Liberal-leaning agencies (left side of the plot) are disproportionately represented among red dots, indicating higher layoff rates.
	β€’	Notable targeted agencies include:
	β€’	HHS (Health & Human Services)
	β€’	EPA (Environmental Protection Agency)
	β€’	NIH (National Institutes of Health)
	β€’	CFPB (Consumer Financial Protection Bureau)
	β€’	Dept. of Education
	β€’	USAID (U.S. Agency for International Development)
	β€’	The National Nuclear Security Administration (DOE), despite its conservative leaning (+1 on the scale), is an exception among targeted agencies.
	β€’	A notable outlier: the Department of Veterans Affairs (moderately conservative) also faced layoffs despite its size.

Takeaway:

The figure visually demonstrates that DOGE layoffs disproportionately targeted liberal-leaning agencies, supporting claims of ideological bias. The pattern reveals that layoffs were not driven by agency size or budget alone but were strongly associated with perceived ideology.

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with β€œefficiency” or β€œcutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. πŸ§΅β¬‡οΈ
