Horrifying for all Americans. A mentally unstable POS is in charge of weapons of mass destruction and millions of babies and children. Sounds like a recipe for many deaths.

Both speeches from Hegseth and Trump sickened me. They want our military people turned into raging animals. We need to watch closely as they are probably beginning to apply dangerous experiments to those who enlist.

No, Secretary Lutnick, the independence of federal statistical agencies is not “nonsense.”

It’s essential that government data is free from political interference and bias, especially given that the American people’s trust in our government is dwindling.
After firing of BLS chief, Lutnick tells federal statisticians that independence is ‘nonsense’
Employees should only focus on accuracy and getting “the right answer,” Commerce secretary says.

RFA sources report plans for DC-wide sweeps of homeless tonight. Involve Feds and local police.

Be careful out there, especially around Union Station.

Rejoice, Americans, Your Stuff Is Getting More Expensive - WhoWhatWhy
The Trump tariffs are finally here. While the president is celebrating, regular Americans should be prepared to start paying a lot more for the things they need.

A little math about that prison camp in Florida. $450 million per year for 3,000 people is $150,000/person per year. The cost for one person receiving SNAP for one year is $2256, yet they're telling us that's too expensive. threads.com/@unapologeticallyzae

Funding for ICE is now nearly twice the funding for the entire U.S. Marine Corps.

As MAGA is fond of saying, let that sink in.

Marines - yes.

Masked fascists - no.
