This is a bigger scandal than people realize.
It really makes it look as though this entire meeting was a setup by Trump that was planned in advance.
If you watch the video it is clear that they are deliberately and almost derangedly blindsiding Zelenskyy. Now we know who the audience was.

Treasury Department officials admitted today that the agency “mistakenly” and “briefly” gave a member of Musk’s DOGE team the power to alter a sensitive federal payments database. The disclosure undercuts the Trump administration’s repeated claims that access was limited to a “read-only” basis.

Trump's funding-freeze fiasco should demonstrate to Democrats that speaking loudly in unison is a pretty good way to set the media agenda and to alert voters that something is gravely amiss with his assaults on rule of law and constitutional governance:

I came across this page while looking up stats about coffee production around the world.
It’s more of a rabbit hole for me, but I also wonder how long this and other resources like it will remain available to us on gov websites.

Chris Murphy: "Here's the message. If you beat a police officer in this country, you're going to jail for a long time, with one exception. You don't go to jail if you beat the hell out of a police officer in service of Donald Trump ... it put Democrats' lives in jeopardy in particular."

Aleksandr Dugin isn’t well known in Western circles. He’s a Russian geopolitical strategist… he’s often referred to as “Putin’s Brain”.
Now that you know who he is… tell me if you see the pattern here…

On the FIRST day of the new GOP-controlled Congress, a 78-year-old chose their Speaker, an 81-year-old GOP rep fell down the stairs and a 91-year-old GOP sen. is now 3rd in line for the presidency.
This after an election where 'age' was a 'top concern' for voters🙄.

The combined net worth of America's twelve wealthiest people passed $2 trillion last year.
12 people. $2 trillion.
Meanwhile, U.S. homelessness increased 18% in 2024.
Our problem isn’t an issue of resources.
Our problem is ever-expanding wealth inequality.
