Elon updated DOGE, claiming to have fixed the mistakes we all pointed out. But instead of correcting them, he just added more false claims. He even inflated his so-called “savings” total from $55 billion to $65 billion, when in reality, the actual increase is only from $2 billion to $2.3 billion.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.
He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.
Make sure everyone sees this cartoon. - @aaronparnas.bsky.social

On Aug. 12, 1958, Art Kane gathered 58 jazz notables in front of a Harlem brownstone for a group portrait.
Only one of its subjects is still alive: the saxophonist Sonny Rollins, 94, who spoke about the historic image.
