The incredibly corrupt, lawless, & unconstitutional nature of the entire DOGE enterprise requires Elon Musk and lots of other people to spend the rest of their lives in jail.
The Wisconsin component of the analysis here is revealing. Evidence is consistent with DOGE strategically delaying contract terminations in WI until after the 2025 state Supreme Court elections to mitigate electoral risk.

Joe Biden did the foreign policy thing everyone said for a decade that they wanted, & they really didn’t, & it destroyed his presidency & the media did this 👇

Trump is literally walking America away from the world, & we don’t see framing like this on CNN & in the Papers of Record

Nine out of ten diplomats serving the United States say Trump’s approach is failing America. If any CEO was undermining his organization in the same way he would be fired

I never again want to hear about how the Republican Party is the party of national security. You don’t incinerate our diplomatic capacity & violate all of our treaty commitments if you care about national security.
Context for Trump withdrawing dozens of ambassadors
*China has invested heavily in expanding diplomacy
*The US has significantly degraded soft power
*The US already has scores of diplomatic vacancies

Outdated laws give presidents sweeping power to use the military at home to suppress protests and make mass arrests in times of war and domestic upheaval. Congress must repeal the Alien Enemies Act, close the loopholes in the Posse Comitatus Act, and reform the Insurrection Act. bit.ly/4oxXJLN
Outdated and Dangerous
Antiquated laws from the 1700s and 1800s give the president tremendous power to use the military at home to quash protests and order mass arrests in times of war and domestic upheaval.

On Day One, I’m declaring a State of Emergency on utility costs by freezing rate hikes and cutting through red tape to drive more energy into our state.

This week, I brought together the heads of New Jersey’s energy companies to discuss my plan to get it done.

Quick explainer I did last night for the other apps. Please watch and share- the Trump administration is trying to bury this arbitrary and cruel restriction of our colleagues’ rights during the holidays. Don’t let them.

NEW: last night, the US govt launched an assault on the ‘global censorship industrial complex’, aka European tech researchers/campaigners.

It’s a deeply chilling move & speaks as to why we need international solidarity more than ever.

Facebook, Instagram, X are simply banned in Russia. No US outrage about free speech there—yet the EU is the target. That contrast says a lot.

The Trump administration is once again trying to illegally shut down Revolution Wind. They already lost in court and a federal judge allowed the project to move forward. This new order ignores the court and the law, and we’re fighting back.

All kidding aside, this is a very troubling post that should feature prominently in the Senate confirmation hearings. Reminder if the Senate doesn’t confirm anyone, Powell stays as Fed Chair.

Over public dissents from Justices Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch, #SCOTUS refuses to allow President Trump to deploy federalized National Guard troops into and around Chicago.

This is a major loss for President Trump, even if, per Justice Kavanaugh’s concurrence, it’s temporary and on narrow legal Q:

RMs @meeks.house.gov and @keating.house.gov sent a letter to Secretary Rubio demanding answers on the admin's reckless actions toward Greenland, which harm our relationships with our allies and distract from the real foreign and domestic policy challenges Trump has repeatedly failed to address.

The Trump admin is gearing up to use AI to delay and deny Medicare benefits for seniors. This is outrageous and should be a national scandal.

We’re talking about a backdoor effort to privatize Traditional Medicare and cut benefits. I introduced legislation to stop it.
Murray pushes to halt federal pilot adding AI to Medicare approvals
The legislation would prohibit the federal government from implementing the Medicare pilot, which is expected to go into effect Jan. 1.

Worth repeating this with every new Epstein document drop. The party of Denny Hastert is the party of Jim Jordan is the party of Matt Gaetz is the party of Donald Trump. Looking the other way and protecting child predators from the law is their brand.

1 - the exec branch can't decline to spend $ Congress appropriated

2- the fed govt can't use federal $ to extort states over policy/political disagreements

3-the fed govt can't use federal $ to impose conditions unrelated to the funding program

4-the fed govt can't use federal $ to coerce states
