Top White House officials used disappearing messages on Signal for top-secret national security discussions—violating federal law & risking our security. Even worse? A participant was in Moscow.

Congress must investigate. This betrayal cannot stand .

On the 2-month anniversary of the start of the devastating LA wildfires, I’m extending the duration of my executive orders that ensure survivors aren’t exploited when seeking short-term housing.

It is still illegal to target survivors with price gouging on rentals and hotels.

In Minnesota, we value the people who care for our veterans, even if DOGE doesn’t.

If Trump fired you, come work for the State of Minnesota and help take care of our vets.

Make it make sense, doge.
Civil servant source says DOGE has made agencies much less efficient: "Work has ground down to a stunning degree and management is spending a significant amount of time responding & preparing to respond to the chaos incited by the never ending barrage of EOs & accompanying memos"
Many make no sense🧵
