Rubio’s position seems to be:

- We get to say who is a terrorist. Our decision is final. It can’t be challenged. Just trust us.
- Once we decide you are a terrorist, we can immediately deport you. No judges.
- After we deport you, we can make you rot in a foreign prison. No criminal charges needed.

Gonna try to start pushing people to use THIS platform more. Make social media great again!

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

Defunding elephant conservation will likely upset conservatives more than children being born with HIV and clinical trials being halted.

Make it make sense.

Musk is the single most dangerous human on the planet. Get his hands off the US government!

Republicans in Congress mostly shrug as Musk and DOGE set sights on spending Congress controls the power of the purse, but Republicans on Capitol Hill have put up little resistance to efforts by the administration to suspend spending that they've already approved.

State capture can be worse than a coup. We must treat this unelected oligarch as he absolutely is. A criminal.

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

Trump moves to wrest control of USAID as Musk says ‘we’re shutting it down’ Billionaire and Trump ally Elon Musk said early Monday that his DOGE team is in the process of closing USAID, the world’s largest provider of food assistance.

A deadly serious bureaucratic-legal question. What formal position does Musk currently hold & what authority does he have (“the president told me” doesn’t count) to shut down federal agencies & raid their secure material? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I think Americans, blessed with relatively stable government for a long time, assume there is someone, some adult, who will step in and make things right before the President does anything REALLY bad.

There’s not.

Genuine question: is there any authorization, anything at all, for a so-called Department of Government Efficiency? an executive order? Anything?

Is anyone working for that “department” a government employee? Or is it just a straight up private sector takeover?
