This is my kind of good trouble.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

In four months time, Trump has made the US a global laughingstock: mocked by all, reviled by many, trusted by none. He has the Reverse Midas Touch, a talent for turning gold into shit.

Ironic isn’t it? Trump is in the White House because he became a public figure on a tv show where he was famous for firing people. And yet now, when he needs to fire people—Hegseth and Walz—he won’t have the balls to do it.

Determined to destroy it without an iota of understanding of the program—he thinks it’s a Ponzi scheme, FFS…
Supported by billionaires like Musk, President Trump has laid the groundwork for the biggest heist in American history—the rapid destruction of Social Security, disguised as “reform.”

Because how dare Americans ask the morbidly rich to help support the middle class!
Trump and Musk’s Plan to Destroy Social Security Started Tuesday Night
It starts with cutting staff at the Social Security Administration. That will sow confusion. Then it builds from there.

And in case you missed this one from earlier in the week, here's how much some DOGE staffers make: six-figure taxpayer-funded salaries—sometimes from the very agencies they are cutting.

To make the doomscroll easier, here's a thread of all the wild stuff we learned this week, starting with @brbarrett.bsky.social's analysis on why DOGE *is* the deep state (and Elon Musk's extended universe.)

Every Republican member of Congress should be asked single every day whether they speak directly with Putin or whether their instructions and talking points are filtered through Trump.

Trump is continuing to look like a fumbling fool domestically and on the world stage. ONCE AGAIN, he is backtracking on his tariffs. This time on all tariffs. Yesterday was automotive. Weeks ago he did the same thing. This on top of calling thousands back to work after firing them.

While George W. Bush was president, the Coast Guard signed a contract to get admin help from a company in Virginia. It paid $144,000, and the contract was completed by June 30, 2005.

Last week, Elon Musk's DOGE claimed it had just canceled the long-dead contract. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/u...
