A federal judge issued a temporary restraining order preventing the Trump administration from withdrawing $14 billion in climate grant funding from Citibank accounts.

The employees who attempted to stop Musk staffers at the U.S. African Development Foundation have been placed on administrative leave “effective immediately.” The email also stated that during the administrative leave, USADF employees are prohibited from

A 25-year-old Musk staffer violated Treasury policies by emailing an unencrypted database containing personal information to two Trump administration officials.

The secretary of transportation went on Fox & Friends this morning and trashed air travel, portraying the current air traffic control system as a disaster, and then claimed taking public transit is "dangerous."

I miss the DEI days when it was safe to travel.

Peak insanity

Not watching the Super Bowl, but apparently, Fox had a cheer track for Trump—while in other countries, the crowd was heard booing. If true, that’s quite the editorial choice. Reality distortion in real time.

Murphy: "I continue to get reports from Connecticut that agencies there, like Head Start programs and community health centers, are actually not receiving the funding they are due. So I think there's a big question as to whether the administration actually is implementing the court order."

Thank you!! A federal judge in New York has granted a temporary restraining order in favor of the states suing over DOGE.

Elon Musk’s staffers are still attempting to manipulate the Treasury payment system to halt the flow of funds following their recent losses. Reminder: U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly has restricted DOGE’s read-only access. No one is above the law.

Musk’s staffers are heading to the Pentagon, while Trump continues his attempted purge of Washington. He recently announced on Truth Social that he is appointing himself as head of the Kennedy Center and plans to remove multiple members from its board of trustees.

When Trump’s gone. When we rebuild. Every new rule must pass the ‘Could Trump Break This?’ test. If a psychotic toddler with a machete could wreck it, it’s not strong enough. No more loopholes, no more chaos—just a democracy that actually works. Let’s fix everything for good.

Reminder: this is completely lawless

While Trump has been distracting America with everything else, Elon Musk’s staffers are quietly taking over NOAA and the Department of Labor. They are also using AI to help rewrite a significant portion of the federal government’s computer systems.

House Democrats made an unsuccessful attempt to subpoena billionaire Elon Musk to testify about his efforts to radically reshape the federal government, only to be blocked by Republicans.

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"
