We are working on launching an ALT DOGE website. It will soon feature a team page listing all of Elon’s staffers, our own wall of receipts (tracking the money he’s taking from America), and a section to help Americans keep tabs on the false claims on Doge’s website—which now exceed 52%.

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, our healthcare, and the information we receive.

Many are now currying favor with Trump to avoid accountability and maintain their power.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

Oligarchs now own:

- the incoming President
- the majority of the Supreme Court
- half of Congress
- most of legacy and social media

They do not own:

- most of the American people
- our values
- our hope for better days...for all

This is our ground zero for the rebellion.

Will it ever really come "to a close"?

"The agreement brings to a close an ugly chapter in which Republicans in Congress pinned allegations of Biden family corruption largely on claims Smirnov made to FBI agents in 2020 — claims that Smirnov now admits were lies..."
Informant accused of lying about Biden family reaches plea deal
Alexander Smirnov admitted he concocted a tale of President Joe Biden and his son Hunter accepting bribes in exchange for protecting a Ukrainian energy company.

Republicans have used public concern about Social Security’s future solvency as a cynical excuse to demand cuts in benefits.

But Social Security could easily pay everything it will owe to everyone for the next 75 years if the cap on income subject to SS taxes were eliminated.

Let me explain.

Why drain the swamp if you're just going to use it as a cesspool?

If a refugee’s application relied upon alternative facts, slogan and propaganda we'd send them to Guantanamo! We would not nominate them to lead our most critical institutions and grant them access to our most sensitive secrets

I'm glad Pete Hegseth has pledged not to drink if he is confirmed as Defense Secretary. So, I guess he can still sexually harass women, mismanage funds, discriminate against women service members, push for a Christian Nationalist agenda, and be a virulent Islamaphobe?

Super duper.

THIS JUST IN: An investigation of Tulsi Gabbard's PACs shows much of the funds raised have gone to fundraising & to pay her advisers, not the stated mission of the PACs. Plus, she won't reveal the donors to a charity she runs. All this needs vetting. Pass it on.

Tulsi Gabbard keeps starting up PACs. Where is the money going?
When her appointment as director of national intelligence is vetted, the Senate should scrutinize her political operation.
