How is any of this "pro-life"? Like George Carlin used to say: "If you're pre-born, you're fine. If you're pre-school, you're fucked." www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZdR...

Obama didn’t make Oprah in charge of the federal government spending because she’s rich. Biden didn’t make Tom Hanks in charge of military because he played one in a war movie. Harris had zero intentions of nominating a podcaster to the FBI. That would be a joke, nobody does that …. Right?

Let me speak to the DOGE audit language. Many people who work in both the Treasury and specifically the IRS are CPAs. Most audit firms hire CPAs. A 19yo coder has absolutely no idea how to accurately identify waste or fraud. Calling what DOGE is doing as a audit, is a flat out lie.

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

I did a walkthrough, here’s a timelapse. This is probably the biggest demo in D.C. so far post-inauguration, brought together by the 50501 Movement which originated on Reddit. Everyone was chanting “fire Elon!” while I was filming this.

Project 2025 included "dismantling the Education Department, disregarding Congressional spending laws, ending DEI..." President Non-Elect Musk doesn't do press conferences. But why hasn't ANY reporter asked Trump since his inaugural about Project 2025?

Head Start childcare programs are still unable to access federal money after Trump's funding freeze

Programs serving 20,000 children have faced funding delays since Trump's administration announced (and then announced rescinding) a temporary freeze on federal aid last week.
