3/DOGE impact? Federal spending is $500 billion higher than 2024, but by cutting USAID, hundreds of thousands of kids have died with many more expected in coming years. Was it worth it?

1/#DOGE experiment is over. Did we get anything more significant than some chaotic months, hundreds of thousands of children dying, and more gov spending? Federal spending is up almost $500 Billion vs. 2024. National debt has increased about $2 trillion since Trump took office.

2/ An example: Trump recently got his worst poll numbers, & within a week posted about having the "highest poll numbers of my political career." He knows polls are low (after a record long shutdown, Epstein drama, tariff woes, etc.), but lies to make the narrative more favorable.

Would it kill somebody to say “Nancy is not stupid.” It pains me to see the WH press corps just accept the abuse. Sends the wrong image to Americans and the world IMHO.

Alternate take if you are not a Trump toady like Judge Winebox: Performative militarization of a relatively safe city — extremely so around the White House — puts lives unnecessarily at risk. This avoidable tragedy all falls on the administration.

I can’t believe people in the room don’t push back. It doesn’t matter if he’s the president, part of holding him accountable is standing up to his bullying— especially if he’s doing it right in front of your face
