Lee Zeldin was on Fox today talking about clawing back money lawfully appropriated to organizations by legislation like the Inflation Reduction Act simply bc Trump doesn't like it. This is an especially egregious example of how Trumpers have redefined "fraud" to just mean "spending I disagree with."

The Senate has confirmed Kash Patel, who has published an enemies list identical to Trump's, to serve a 10-year term as FBI Director.

He will be a major cog in Trump's vengeance machine to silence and intimidate critics.

Be warned. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/kash-patel-in-his-own-words

This is why you fight these cowards.

The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.

He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Some Trump critics: "I think Trump wants to be a dictator."

Some Trump fans: "Well, Biden acted like a dictator."

Uh, no he didn't. Just stop. You're embarrassing yourselves at this point.

I'm watching Canadian officials hold a presser on the Toronto plane crash and remarkably they're not blaming DEI or recklessly speculating about causes. They could never cut it down here in Trumplandia.

DOGE is attacking federal agencies that protect millions of Americans from financial predators, infectious diseases, natural disasters, and air crashes.

Once again: this has nothing to do with making the government "efficient" — and everything to do with who it works for.
The REAL Waste That Elon's DOGE Should Cut
DOGE is a trojan horse for Elon Musk to gut labor, consumer, and environmental protections. If he actually wanted to cut waste, he'd look at the massive tax loopholes, government contracts, and subsidies that benefit the wealthy and large corporations.

DOGE having access to Americans' Social Security data isn't just a major security breach.

It's part of a deliberate ploy to cut benefits — using the false pretext of "waste and fraud" — and have Congress use the savings to give billionaires another giant tax cut.

Be warned.

I remember, as a teenager, the hand wringing over the passing of the generation with living memory of the Second World War, and how much would be lost or at risk once those stories became no more than words on a page. I remember, naively, being confused about where that fear came from.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.

Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.
We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.

We did not have a FAA administrator to respond to the tragic crash last night in DC. Why? Because Elon Musk pushed the head appointed under Biden to resign after he fined SpaceX for failing to follow safety license requirements. www.theverge.com/news/603113/...
The FAA is facing a major crisis without a leader because Elon Musk pushed him out

Folks have asked for my thoughts on former Senator Menendez getting 11 years.

He betrayed public trust. He took bribes in his official capacity, and he obstructed justice.

Like anyone else who is guilty of these crimes, he deserves prison.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country
