You cannot determine whether you saved or cost money based solely on one side of the ledger.

Example: I saved my household $2K by not paying the mortgage.

Taxpayers pay Elon Musk $8M a day and he’s already got 2 new government contracts totaling $38.4B since Trump came into office. DOGE isn’t about America. Boy didn’t want the gravy train to stop…

Breaking on MSNBC:

The Trump admin has begun a mass firing of federal workers.

Office of Personnel Management officials met with agency leaders and advised them to dismiss probationary employees.

Hundreds of thousands of people could be affected.

Really good article on why Elon Musk is vulnerable to a sustained boycott of Tesla.

They worked against apartheid. Surely they could work against one South African.

With an anti-science conspiracy theorist leading the US Department of Health and Human Services, preventative action is critical to protecting your health and the health of your community.

A good place to start would be getting back into the practice of regularly wearing a mask.

I am curious to know what information DOGE has about me so I just sent a Freedom of Information Act Request. If each of us sends one, maybe a few million of these will get someone's attention. Are you curious too? If you are, share this with your friends and family.

"The Trump tariffs on our aluminium are a major test for the Albanese govt, could determine the election."

FMD. Aluminium articles account for a bit over 1% of all our exports and just 13% of that goes to the USA.

We really need to stop acting like pleasing Trump is vital to our economy

Hello, please pay attention:

A Nevada dairy worker has contracted the deadly D1.1 strain of bird flu, seen in a British Columbia teen who recovered and a Louisiana victim who died.

This mutated strain spreads rapidly among mammals, including cattle, and is moving faster than others.
