BREAKING: One of the most important and prominent reporters on the ground in Gaza has been Anas Al Sharif.
He - and several other Al Jazeera journalists - have just been assassinated by Israelis forces whilst in their press tent in central Gaza.

What happens if you don’t do background checks or training for thousands of people and you give them all total authority?
ICE has been caught looting and destroying property at Pittsburgh restaurants. They even tried to break into the safes. They loaded food, supplies and equipment into vehicles

1. The Social Security Administration and DOGE are GASLIGHTING AMERICANS.
They are telling millions of beneficiaries that reports they were closing SSA field offices were fake news.
Actually, these closures were PUBLICLY ANNOUNCED and LEASES WERE CANCELED.

How the Social Security Administration and DOGE are gaslighting Americans
The Social Security Administration (SSA) sent an email on March 27 to beneficiaries saying that reports that field offices were closing was an invention of fake news media.

This is not just a musing from a dude with some various ideas. The next step is to hollow out the judiciary and also not follow their rulings, which have been against Musk’s efforts. This is a very obvious coup, for those not paying attention.

A billionaire Trump donor is asking the Supreme Court to make it easier to sue journalists for defamation.
This is about silencing the press of criticism against the Trump administration. And it’s dangerous.

These are the people who monitor and publish Lake Superior's conditions every day. Minnesotans along the North Shore rely on NOAA to know whether or not it’s safe to go out on the water.
These agencies and their staff do real work that keeps us safe, it just goes unnoticed - until they’re gone.

Musk is unpopular because Americans can see that he’s running rampant inside the federal government and no one believes he’s doing this to help us — he’s doing it to help himself.
