The brave men and women who serve in our national guards must not be used as political props. This is a moment where every American must speak up and help stop this madness.

​I call on Governor Abbott to immediately withdraw any support for this decision and refuse to coordinate. There is no reason a President should send military troops into a sovereign state without their knowledge, consent, or cooperation.

Democrats: Let's support the Ukrainians' defense of their nation, democracy, and prevent a Russian invasion into Europe.

Republicans: Let's roll out the red carpet for Putin and side with all the scum of the earth dictators who want to end democracy like we do.

Putin is a war criminal.

Another crime by Russia!

In the morning, the Russian occupiers struck the city of Marganets in the Dnipropetrovsk region with a suicide drone.

An enemy FPV drone hit a bus carrying employees

9 people were killed and 30 more were injured.

So let’s be very clear about this - DOGE isn’t saving America money. It is now among the costliest domestic programs in our history; and certainly the most significant wealth destroying.
🚨 Big SCOOP 🚨

Tax revenue could fall by as much as **10%** this year, per sources, as taxpayers and businesses see the Trump admin as less likely to challenge tax cheats.

That'd be **$500 BILLION** in lost revenue.

It'd nearly double the tax gap in a single year.
Tax revenue could drop by 10 percent amid turmoil at IRS
Staff cuts and disruptions related to the U.S. DOGE Service have officials bracing for a sharp loss of revenue.

I’m sure it’s just my TDS, but I think Trump is proving to be exactly as bad as we said he was going to be and people who acted like we were hysterical should be embarrassed they didn’t do more to try and stop it.

Elon Musk and Nancy Mace think they are going to scare me and silence me with a censure. They don’t want opposition as they raid the social safety net. Democrats need to fight harder, not retreat. I’m not backing down folks, I’m from Long Beach.

Johnson needs to read Article 1 again. I don’t see anything in there that says the president has a huge amount of discretion over what Congress has authorized.

There should be no presupposition that the president has good intentions when he is a convicted felon and has launched a seditious coup.
Mike Johnson is totes OK with Trump and Musk doing whatever they want with taxpayer dollars

Because when Congress appropriates funding they give the president “discretion”

“No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law”

US Constitution, Art 1, Sec 9

GOOD NEWS FOR DEMOCRACY:

Federal judges are furious with members of the Trump administration.

Numerous members of this administration are dangerously close to being found in CRIMINAL CONTEMPT OF COURT.

Trump may be immune from prosecution, but not the defiant cabinet secretaries, lawyers,…
NEW VIDEO: I have never seen as many federal judges angry with the federal government as there are right now. And one judge in Rhode Island seems poised to find someone in criminal contempt.

It seems DOGE is costing taxpayers at least $7 million a week. That's a lot of money for a court injunction making machine.
