Oh, sure—now that a measles outbreak is surging in Texas and a child has died, folks are rushing to get vaccinated. But if they’d gotten vaccinated in the first place, there wouldn’t have been an outbreak at all!

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”?

But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"?

Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

JD Vance owns AcreTrader, an app that lets wealthy—often foreign—investors buy up U.S. farmland.

Guess who’s deliberately tanking farm economies so JD and his billionaire tech buddies can scoop it up for pennies.

RFK being an addict isn’t the issue — no one better understands drug misuse than a former user.

RFK being a fanatical pro-life, queerphobic, mental illness-denying anti-vaxxer, ‘nutrition huckster’ and conspiracy theorist is the issue.

So basically, the Department of Health and Human Services is finished. If you want to stay safe from food recalls, viruses, and whatever else is coming—better start looking elsewhere for reliable information.

Elon Musk has no business being anywhere near our personal data. It's that simple. Pass it on.

Also, @jessicatarlov.bsky.social is in the trenches fighting MAGA on Fox News everyday, if you don't follower her, you should!
Elon Musk is actively causing a constitutional crisis by subverting Congress and the funds it specifically appropriated.

Musk is not a forensic accountant. He and his team have not passed sufficient security checks. They should not have access to our data.

Doesn’t matter if you’re a Democrat or Republican—this government isn’t on your side. Trump’s government is for billionaires and big corporations.

This is a big deal!
1% of the federal workforce has taken the “buyout” so far.

So, where’s the money coming from if Congress never approved this scheme? And by the way, it’s still way below the Trump administration’s target of 5–10% of federal employees.

The president does not rule over the American people, they work for us.

Congress and the courts are not subservient to the president, they have a responsibility to provide a check on overreach.

You can't claim to support the Constitution but want Trump to have unchecked power — it's unAmerican.
Statement from John Cornyn says he'll vote to confirm Gabbard, but says nothing about her qualifications to be DNI. Rather he focuses on Trump winning.

We don’t know exactly who’s to blame for the crash, but Trump & Musk set the stage for danger ahead.

Freezing all federal assistance is unconstitutional, it’s that simple.

Democrats need to figure out that we didn't vote for them so we could watch their meaningless speeches and read their posts on social media. They need to find a way to truly fight back before it's too late.

What’s Elon Musk planning with DOGE?

One could argue he’s leveraging the government in his quest to become the first trillionaire while also making it so dysfunctional that no one can stop him.

Threatening to get rid of a way for the federal government to help Americans suffering from the aftermath of natural disasters fits perfectly into his master plan to screw over the American people.
Trump: "I'll be signing an EO to begin process of fundamentally reforming & overhauling or maybe getting rid of FEMA. I think, frankly, FEMA is not good. When you have a problem like this, you want to use your state to fix it & not waste time calling FEMA..I think we're gonna recommend FEMA go away"

Folks, we’re being manipulated! TikTok went dark last night, ahead of the deadline, pushing propaganda that Trump will “save the day.”

Now, Trump plans to sign an exec order on Monday giving TikTok more time to find a buyer before a US ban takes effect. Now he’s a hero, especially for young folks.
