It’s not about right and wrong with them. It certainly isn’t about looting Its about control. Do as you are told. Don’t question them. And certainly don’t challenge them in protest. The wrongs don’t matter as long as there is compliance. Only when there is disobedience is there issue. Control.

Serious question. Kristi Noem was pictured with a Rolex in El Salvador, and got 3k in cash stolen.

She has been on a govt salary for years.

Vote NO on the SAVE Act!
The SAVE Act is a trick to undermine our voting rights. Urge Congress to vote no on the SAVE ACT.

DOGE Oversight Subcommittee held a hearing on reducing federal property. All they said was “fire sale” this, “fire sale” that. Meanwhile, they’re lighting all of this s**t on fire — while their incompetent leader wastes millions of taxpayer dollars golfing, all while steering us towards a recession.

This truly is horrifying. We are straight abducting people at this point. This is the kind of story you expect for people visiting Russia or North Korea. Not America.

How far we’ve fallen.

An important watch to see how Trump will funnel government funds farther into his pockets, and those close with him.

This is the type of National coverage I expected to see all over the TVs since this weekend. Much respect to @maddow.msnbc.com for having the courage to show it where others (MSM) have not. Coverage may need to be grassroots-up as well. Share and see you on the 19th!

The lie du jour from Maga is that the protestors yesterday were paid and bussed in.

Paying 3+ million people? The absurdity of it and how very few people would even be able to afford it. Such nonsense only actually occurs in Elon’s wettest of dreams.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.

Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

A hero and a coward are meeting in the Oval Office today.

And when the meeting is over, the hero will return home to Ukraine.

Inviting the president of Ukraine over for a public SHAKEDOWN. Every day I think I can’t be more disgusted and embarrassed by this administration, and every day they prove me wrong. Absolutely abhorrent.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.
