Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.”

Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

This is a flat-out, clear-cut violation of the First Amendment.
Associated Press: “Today we were informed by the White House that if AP did not align its editorial standards with President Donald Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, AP would be barred from accessing an event in the Oval Office.“

Under oath, Kash Patel said he was unaware of plans to dismiss FBI agents before he was confirmed.

Today, whistleblowers revealed Patel was reportedly directing those dismissals. Covertly.

Yet another reason he must be rejected.

Well… today I have my first DOGE subcommittee hearing along with a Judiciary hearing, all while DC is snowed in!

If I had normal coworkers & the country wasn’t going to hell lead by DOGE Douchebags, I’d say, “nothing to see here,” but something tells me, today is going to be pure insanity…

@marcelias.bsky.social: "There is a reason why Trump nominated Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, Pete Hegseth. He wants to humiliate these Republicans, because he knows that once they have voted for these folks, he will own them. They will not have a shred of dignity or standing left."

Sit tight. Keep doing your jobs.
The Inspectors General refuse to leave until the action is taken legally, which they do not believe it was, and neither do senators like Chuck Grassley. This is what not backing down looks like.

HELL YES:

Michael Steele delivers a genius game-plan to absolutely DERAIL the GOP.

Democrats need to STOP helping Republicans. “Let them choke on (their majority).”

His words were BLUNT:

“Y'all need to chill on this, all this kumbaya partisan bi-partisan crap.” He added.

Insanity: The deportation flights Trump used military jets for—that Mexico refused to accept—cost the U.S. up to $852,000 per flight to attempt to deport just 80 migrants at a time.

To compare, flights directly chartered by Immigration and Customs Enforcement cost just $8,577.

Worth noting that McConnell refusing to whip votes to convict Trump at his impeachment trial (or vote himself to convict) is *why* we’re now in a position where Hegseth is the Defense Secretary. If McConnell is looking for the person at fault, he might want to consult a mirror.

The Hegseth confirmation shows that Republican lawmakers have put party over country. They should be ashamed, but I doubt if they are.
