Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

What DOGE is doing doesn’t meaningfully reduce govt spending and it in no way improves efficiency. What it does is weaken America and strengthen our enemies. It is time to focus on why that is the goal of Musk and Trump. Why is damaging the US their primary goal?

With all due respect to armed security guards (they are extremely important and valuable to securing buildings) I don't see them having ANY AUTHORITY to impede a member of congress. They don't even have arrest authority.

Prediction: By the time this dystopian shitshow is in full stride, the US will make the censorship structure of totalitarian China and the former Soviet Union look like child’s play. Disregard at your own will and risk, and fight like hell to prevent it from coming to fruition.

The thing I want to ask Trump supporters is this: How would you feel if a random 22 year old kid asked you for all your personal information. Would you hand it over? Would you be okay when he just took it? Because Musk has allowed that to happen.

They’ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We aren’t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.

"I just want a eugenic immigration policy, is that too much to ask" "You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity" "Normalize Indian hate" "I was racist before it was cool" These are things a DOGE staffer wrote. He resigned. Musk and his followers want to bring him back.

MLK was prescient, as usual, in his final days. Sadly and frighteningly, his conclusion (warning) 56 years ago has only grown exponentially more accurate in describing our present nightmare. We’re not just heading for the abyss; we’re on a bullet train to the abyss. youtu.be/OBVdVPw8xLA?...

So basically Elon Musk and his team of Dogie Howsers, none of whom have gone through any security clearances or background checks from what I can tell, are going from one federal agency to another doing a couple Edward Snowden's per day...and not even for any plausibly believable principled reason.

House Oversight Republicans spent two years subpoenaing and deposing every person who ever had a cup of coffee with Hunter Biden over the last 20 years, but now oppose a subpoena to hear from the person really running the government who hasn’t even had a confirmation hearing.

Based on what we’re hearing about the process, it sounds like any hacker or spy who wants access to a federal facility just needs to toss a cheap ill-fitting suit on a nearby teenager and have them show up claiming to be the new DoGE auditors.

Ezra Klein hits it on the nose. “Trump is acting like a King because he is too weak to govern like a president. He is trying to substitute perception for reality. He is hoping that perception then becomes reality. That can only happen if we believe him.” DON’T OBEY IN ADVANCE youtu.be/K8QLgLfqh6s

USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency
“On Friday, February 7, 2025, at 11:59 pm (EST) all USAID direct hire personnel will be placed on administrative leave globally, with the exception of designated personnel responsible for mission-critical functions, core leadership and specially designated programs. Essential personnel expected to continue working will be informed by Agency leadership by Thursday, February 6, at 3:00pm (EST).

For USAID personnel currently posted outside the United States, the Agency, in coordination with missions and the Department of State, is currently preparing a plan, in accordance with all applicable requirements and laws, under which the Agency would arrange and pay for return travel to the United States within 30 days and provide for the termination of PSC and ISC contracts that are not determined to be essential. The Agency will consider case-by-case exceptions and return travel extensions based on personal or family hardship, mobility or safety concerns, or other reasons. For example, the Agency will consider exceptions based on the timing of dependents’ school term, personal or familial medical needs, pregnancy, and other reasons. Further guidance on how to request an exception will be forthcoming.

Thank you for your service”
