Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suit—so let me break it down real slow:

George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.

Elon claimed he’d save the government $1 TRILLION by Sept. 30. Now he’s admitting his “efficiency” team is falling short — 85% short.

Sure doesn’t sound like efficiency to me.
DOGE Is Far Short of Its Goal, and Still Overstating Its Progress
Elon Musk now says his group will produce only 15 percent of the savings it promised. But even that estimate is inflated with errors and guesswork.

To governors who haven't joined the MAGA cult: take notes from Gov. Janet Mills of Maine! Her backbone is fully intact, even in the face of relentless bullying from our "President."

RFK Jr sucks. Hegseth sucks. Musk sucks. Trump sucks. It's a seemingly never-ending pile of dangerous and bad ideas from these guys. How to survive their siege?

Wow - WI Senator Ron Johnson is more of a cult member than I realized. According to his generic response email, Musk is a "special government (non-paid) employee" with "a new approach". 🤢

Apparently T-Rump posted this today on his Truth Social account. Uh --- since when is posting an edict equal to law-making? Since when is squashing freedom of speech lawful? Really, really hoping the law catches up with him and his henchmen SOON. Call your Senators/Reps re: this madness!
