Here's the video of the forcible removal of Senator Alex Padilla for daring to try to ask DHS a question. If you are unfortunate enough to have MAGA-loving Republicans in your life, make sure they see it. The trump lovers are wetting themselves in their excitement to deny what really happened.

Corporate criminals shouldn’t be let anywhere near the levers of power in our government. I'm proud to stand with fellow reformers to battle corruption, with bills like my "No Corporate Crooks Act" to #EndCorruptionNow.

How the Social Security Administration and DOGE are gaslighting Americans The Social Security Administration (SSA) sent an email on March 27 to beneficiaries saying that reports that field offices were closing was an invention of fake news media.

Pushback works, part gazillion:

Tesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3 Billion in Income This brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

It feels like we are living in a parallel universe since 2017. Everything that has happened belongs to a Mandela effect. I wouldn't have imagined things could be done in the USA that run afoul to the laws.
Please stop this time line, enough is enough.

Senator Murphy lays out exactly what is on the line.

"  There was a promise made to finance this tax cut with two trillion dollars of cuts to Medicaid and Medicare. Medicaid, poor kids, poor families, Medicare, seniors in this country."

Hands Off Our Medicaid!

Damn, this is so true! (TC)

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
