Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.

Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Elon Musk’s staffers visited the U.S. Institute of Peace, accompanied by two FBI agents. They were met at the door by a lawyer who informed them that the institute holds “private and independent status as a non-executive branch agency.” Following this, the staffers left.

everyone should listen to this in its entirety but journalists should listen to it multiple times. this is how you ask questions. you just keep asking simple, easily answerable stuff and the evasiveness becomes that much more glaring
In which the Department of Homeland Security struggles to answer a very simple question: "Is any criticism of the United States government a deportable offense?"

The story of Elon scamming the Canadian government out of 43 million dollars in EV tax credits should be getting more attention than it has.

A group of Musk staffers attempted to take control of California’s water pumps during the devastating wildfires. Inspired by Trump, the mission involved direct pressure on federal officials and even a failed attempt to activate the pumps themselves.

Since Trump has claimed Elon doesn’t run DOGE, we wanted to make sure you know who is running our government. This list has been updated with 15 names.

Elon Musk has infiltrated the U.S. Treasury Office to identify ways to cut off funding for various projects, prompting the abrupt retirement of the Treasury official responsible for overseeing the government’s vast payment system.

At the EPA, employees hired within the past year have been notified that “the agency reserves the right to terminate you immediately,” without justification. Reports suggest that demonstrating loyalty to the current administration’s agenda may improve the chances of retaining employment.

1. Getting word that we have another anti-trans EO tonight, this time targeting teachers.

It directs the federal government to work with state AGs to put teachers who use trans kids pronouns in jail through "sexual exploitation" laws or "practicing medicine without a license."

Donald Trump has just released a national under 18 trans care ban executive order. I am working through specifically how it tries to do this, and will live tweet here section by section as I read through it.

It is not yet on the website, but has been released via press release.

Trump is offering all federal workers a buyout with seven months’ pay to shrink the government—but that’s not the whole story. Reports reveal some employees are being pressured to resign or face termination under the guise of organizational restructuring. In short: take the buyout or be fired.

Musk and his team have hostilely taken over OPM. Tonight’s email to fed employees mirrors the “Fork in the Road” message sent to Twitter (now X) staff after Musk’s 2022 takeover. He is working with the Trump administration to build profiles on federal workers based on loyalty (political standing).
