The Justice Department is not the president's personal law firm. You are not his lawyers.

The free press should be exactly that — free. If the facts they report don’t align with the president’s propaganda, tough.

And this statement is a disgrace to the DOJ and the rule of law.

Kash Patel was just confirmed by Senate Republicans to follow through with President Trump’s agenda of revenge and retribution against his "enemies list." He has no business leading the very agency that he’s called to dismantle. I voted NO.

Trump rode to political prominence on birtherism and spent the last month of his campaign claiming that Haitians were eating cats.

The rise of authoritarianism in America *must* be understood as a misinformation crisis.
There's also seemingly no acknowledgement of a massive right-wing propaganda machine stirring this sentiment up. Where it does exist it's largely a manufactured, tribal outrage, it's not actually regular people getting so offended they go fash over this stuff. That's important.

Yep, DOGE is as incompetent as everyone thought. An $8 million "saving" has been listed as an $8 BILLION saving.

That is 14.5% of their total claimed $55 billion in "savings" having been completely made up.

USAID has been paying for removal of Vietnam-era land mines in Cambodia. Trump's funding freeze has compromised those efforts.
Almost immediately, China stepped in to aid Cambodia instead. Besides humanitarian costs here, how does any of this serve US interests?

Program clearing deadly U.S. mines left reeling after Trump USAID funding suspension
“I am over here because my mother told me as a little kid to clean up after myself,” said Bill Morse, who was a U.S. Army officer during the Vietnam War and co-founded the Landmine Relief Fund.
