It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved. * very unconstitutional

With Elon’s “tell us what you accomplished last week or you’re fired” emails: I can confirm that he didn’t limit himself to the executive branch. He sent them to employees of the judicial branch as well.

Trump's America Is in a Free Fall—Not a Slippery Slope—to Tyranny
He is instilling fear not just among lawmakers but every sector of society that dares to criticize him or hold him accountable

Fun group project: Call your R Representative's office, ask them how much of the Federal budget is Medicaid, ask them how much the bill cuts Medicaid by, then ask them to do the math for you.

Pssst: There actually isn’t a lot of waste, fraud, an abuse in the govt given its size. Big businesses typically have more. “Waste, fraud, and abuse” is what politicians (1) say to BS that they can save a lot of money without taking anything from anyone or (2) by “waste,” mean “thing I don’t like.”

Project 2025 was unpopular because of things like the plan for Trump to shut down the CFPB, which helps you get your money back if a bank cheats you.

Anecdotally, the Dems’ attempt to enter Treasury on Tues broke through to the public in a big way. At least according to..the Mom-o-meter. My Mom before Tues: You’re doing what? Where? This can’t be a national emergency. Mom on Tuesday: WHO ARE THESE KIDS AND WHAT ARE THEY DOING WITH MY MONEY?

An EEOC admin. judge sent a fiery all-department email this AM alleging: 1. Trump's exec orders & instructions to target private citizens with them are illegal. 2. the judge had sent an earlier email with a similar tone yesterday that later vanished from their sent folder & colleagues' inboxes.

For all federal employees: Before you are locked out of your systems, ensure you have copies of unclassified performance appraisals, awards & other relevant personnel docs. If you have access to your office, grab your more important personal items sooner rather than later.

project 2025 is probably the media's single largest failure I think. there's a lot of grey areas and you can't please everyone, but it is factually true that they are doing large parts of it, people said they were going to do this, they lied about not doing it, and that could have been reported.
