SCOOP! Court documents released earlier this year show Kara Voorhies, who DHS employees described as a "shadow administrator," became a contractor, employed under a startup founded by a DOGE member, after serving as a special government employee. @wired.com www.wired.com/story/femas-...

Details from recent court filings show that DOGE's influence within government—and potential conflicts of interest—extend further than previously known.

When a handful of men have more money than 4 billion people combined, families relying on food stamps or Medicaid aren't the problem.

Businesses ranging from Meta to Target who once rushed to embrace #DEI “initiatives” and celebrate Black History Month have rushed to erase their solidarity following #Trump’s Executive Orders. My latest op-ed on Forbes “Big Tech Are Forgetting About The Majority." www.forbes.com/sites/allyso...

How Corporate America And Big Tech Are Forgetting About The Majority
All of this makes the head-spinning declarations of loyalty to the Trump Administration that many companies have shown in recent weeks rather curious.

This morning, I sent a letter to the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) regarding Elon Musk’s potential conflicts of interest. Within minutes, the White House confirmed receipt. By noon, President Trump fired the Director of OGE. I want to know: Was this to prevent his answer?

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

The executive branch does not have the legal right to cancel appropriated spending or eliminate agencies created by Congress. Trump and Musk are doing both. Entirely lawless and unconstitutional. The world's largest provider of food assistance shut down. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Musk tweet boasting of "feeding USAID into the chipper"“I went over it with him in detail, and he agreed that we should shut it down,” Musk said. “And I actually checked with him a few times [and] said ‘are you sure?’”

The answer was yes, he said.

“And so we’re shutting it down,” Musk said.

USAID staffers were told that the agency’s headquarters in Washington will be closed Monday amid the turmoil.

In an email to staff early Monday, the agency’s leadership said: “Agency personnel normally assigned to work at USAID headquarters will work remotely … with the exception of personnel with essential on-site and building maintenance functions individually contacted by senior leadership.”

Let’s make this crystal clear. If Congress can’t get this house in order you’ll be voted out. You work for the US people not Elon Musk. It’s illegal for private citizens who are not government employees, don’t have security clearance, or background checks to be handling sensitive data! #resist
