GAO rejects DOGE attempt to land at congressional watchdog agency The Government Accountability Office told the DOGE acting administrator that it is part of the legislative branch.

Elon’s lil DOGE tried to roll up on GAO like they run Congress.

Let me be clear: GAO works for US—not Trump or Elon.

DOGE can’t shrink what it doesn’t control. Stay in your lane.

Christian Nationalists always have their eye on what is important--shoving a religion they don't even follow down your throat, while they idly sit back and let your plane crash.

I love this young lady. I want her to someday rise up to Senator, Governor and perhaps POTUS

Secretary Noem, you can’t claim you want to cut “waste, fraud, and abuse” yesterday and then take a taxpayer-funded trip for a political stunt today. We have some questions.

lol yes more of this

Rick Wilson on Marco Rubio's debasement "He’s become an obscene parody of the guy Marco Rubio once claimed to be."

New in PN: @therickwilson.bsky.social on Marco Rubio's great debasement

"He’s not only betrayed every value he ever claimed to have, but he’s profoundly — at a level I can barely articulate — harming the country. It’s an astounding comedown for a guy who was once thought of as someone of principle"

Senate GOP leaders succeed in protecting Trump tariffs It comes the same day the Commerce Department reported that the U.S. economy contracted by 0.3% in the first quarter — the first contraction in three years.

Tariffs are raising costs for American families and hurting our economy. Senate Republicans could’ve voted to end them.

They chose not to because they’re afraid to stand up to Trump.

The Supreme Court is about to let religion ruin public education Two recent cases suggest that the era of secular schools is coming to an end.
