Sensitive Content Warning: 🚨ICE
Fatally shot a man inside of a car in Franklin Park. Media is reporting the injuries to the ICE agent, instead of prioritizing the death. It is unclear at this time what the officers are doing in the video. The story is still developing. WTF. #ICE #meltICE #illinois

The Social Security Administration has already cut 7,000 jobs.
As a result, its website is crashing. Phone lines are overwhelmed. Beneficiaries can't get service.
What is DOGE recommending now? More layoffs.

It's hard to comprehend this if you have even a smidgen of empathy, but Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. does not care if children die of measles. 🧪 www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Don’t forget to blame the 52 Republican senators who put aside everything they learned about Kennedy and confirmed him anyway.

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.
Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.
Funny how that works, huh?

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!
Okay what is going on here. Are the accounts at a private banking entity? Does the federal government have direct debit permission set up? So many questions as to how Treasury instructed this payment. (Via NY Post’s Craig McCarthy)

We need to call out the blatant lie being pushed by the Trump administration—that Elon’s staffers have only “read-only” access. It has been confirmed across departments that they have “administrative” access to computer systems.
