Waste and fraud? Has the Pentagon dropped its investigation into Musk's abuse of its own reporting rules? newrepublic.com/article/1913...
newrepublic.com
Did Trump Quietly Kill a Sensitive Pentagon Probe into Elon Musk?
The New York Times revealed last year that Musk and SpaceX failed to meet federal reporting requirements for Pentagon contractors. No one has asked: What’s going on with that today?

Elon Musk inherited a lot of money from his rich daddy, and he is currently driving his businesses into the ground with his ineptitude. Donald Trump inherited a lot of money from his rich daddy and drove his businesses into the ground with is ineptitude. America, stop thinking rich men are smart.

Whoa! Trump appointed judge, U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, has temporarily blocked the loathsome piece of shit from placing 2,200 USAID employees on administrative leave. It's a big win, but it's only temporary. The USAID employees would have lost their jobs tonight. 😳

I've heard reports that the military branches paused sexual assault prevention and response trainings. That's horrific, against the law, and disastrous for our ability to recruit, retain, and protect women. Secretary Hegseth, you have some explaining to do. Stay tuned for my oversight letter.

Independent media in Russia, Ukraine lose their funding with USAID freeze
Independent media in Russia and Ukraine have been critical of their governments and provide alternative reporting, but much of it relied on U.S. grants.

This is journalism's new favorite Trump trope: the result of totalitarian rule is not destruction, only "confusion" (and isn't journalism supposed to be the cure for confusion?). Trump threatened college research, culture and funding. Confusion reigns www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...

The funding freeze was lifted, but funding reviews and DEI prohibitions continue — leaving colleges at risk of losing support and programs.

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment. I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face. And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

It's ILLEGAL for special government employees to do government work that affects their own financial interests! Musk's companies got $3.3 BILLION in US government contracts in 2024, and now he's deciding who gets federal funding. House Judiciary Dems are calling on the DOJ to investigate NOW.
