The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

In this Ohio diner, it was a tradition: eggs and waffles, big cup of Folgers, then open the old text message app to read about the administration's secret plans to bomb Yemen. But now the woke mob wants to take all of that away.

Musk gaslights Social Security - calls it a Ponzi scheme. That’s rich coming from a guy who touts “self-driving” cars that can’t stay in their lane.
Wanna save Social Security? Lift the cap on taxation.

Just to underscore the tension at DOJ at the moment, here's what one federal law enforcement official told me about the acting deputy attorney general:
"I, along with other career FBI and DOJ personnel that I’ve spoken with, really have one message for him and that is, “go fuck yourself, traitor.'"
"I, along with other career FBI and DOJ personnel that I’ve spoken with, really have one message for him and that is, “go fuck yourself, traitor.'"
Trump’s feared DOJ enforcer has a secret: He, too, investigated Jan. 6
The acting DOJ official behind a potential witch hunt against prosecutors and FBI agents who investigated the Capitol riot worked on Jan. 6 cases himself.

We never freaking learn. Your protest votes/non-votes may have set us back 20 years… at best. The Harris-Walz was not perfect, but it sure as hell better than the hell President Musk is raising. Congrats, Clean Conscience Corp. Sleep well…

Hey @circle-cedarcity.bsky.social , the word is getting out.
Drove through Cedar City, Utah at 2:30 p.m. - there were at least 100 people demonstrating at a main intersection downtown, waving American and pride flags, showing support for democracy and opposition to oligarchy.
If that's happening in a college and farm town of 30,000 people in deep red Utah...

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.
You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?
Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.
You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Klobuchar: Ok. For any Republican Trump Administration person who wants to throw eggs at me because of that joke. You can’t because they’re too expensive.

I wonder why Musk is focused on the federal civilian workforce (4% of the budget) and not federal contractors, which account for 3x more annual spending and are more prone to waste, fraud, and abuse?
