Hours ago, @politico.com revealed that DOGE is working with DHS on automating mass deportation efforts — likely explaining why many US citizens, green card holders, and even a Canadian (in Canada) got threatening emails last night terminating “your parole” and telling them to leave the US in 7 days.

Yes, please just stay away for good. 😅
So the US will ignore the next Ramstein meeting, and honestly just leave it that way please

Why do I never get invited to a chat group on Signal? 🧐
Breaking Politico:

Mike Waltz's team regularly set up chats on Signal — potentially as many 20 chats — to coordinate official work on issues including Ukraine, Gaza, and Mid East policy.

Four people said they saw instances of sensitive information being discussed.

Waltz’s team set up at least 20 Signal group chats for crises across the world
It’s a more extensive use of the app than previously reported and sheds new light on how commonly the Trump administration’s national security team relies on Signal.

Donald Trump's tariffs are bullshit. I'm fighting back in Congress. We won't let him get away with it.

Donald Trump is a Russian agent. The amount of damage he has done to our country, our standing in the world, and to our allies is so extensive it has to be intentional.

Russia and China are the only ones to gain from this.

These are talking points straight from the Kremlin.

It is clear that Trump’s plan to “end the war” is to remove Zelenskyy, replace him with a Putin stooge, and then let Putin take over Ukraine.

Putting aside the fact that this is nonsense, since Ukraine's constitution prohibits elections during wartime and biggest opposition figures are against elections right now, note how Musk is never concerned about democracy in Russia and China. After all, it might jeopardize Tesla sweatshops in China
