The Rayburn Building is on fire with protest. People are swarming the halls during live hearings on Medicaid cuts. Security can’t contain it — because when the government wages war on the poor, the poor fight back. This isn’t chaos. This is a reckoning. (1/)

Musk claimed DOGE would save taxpayers $2 trillion, later revised to $1 trillion, then reduced to $150 billion. His cuts could cost $135 billion this year alone. All this chaos and the ‘savings’ amount to $15B, roughly one-third of the price he paid for Twitter. (NYT) www.nytimes.com/2025/04/24/u...

Why Abrego Garcia? Why now? Here’s why. Trump’s deportation numbers are actually less than Biden’s, even with all this noise. The high profile cruelty and defiance of court orders is a distraction tactic to cover up his low deportation numbers. With Trump it’s always a sleight of hand Ponzi scheme.
