Earlier this year, "DOGE" canceled an $8M/year contract with a contractor that ensured equal employment opportunities at ICE.

So far, Trump has spent over $30M of taxpayer dollars on his golf trips. He has spent 25% of his second term on the golf course, or one in every four days spent golfing.

Fun Fact: Under the U.S. Constitution, international students in the United States have the right to free speech and due process.

This means the government cannot legally detain international students just because of something they wrote or said.

"Okay, I'll go on NPR to talk about it. What do you want me to say when they ask for the grounds for his deportation?"

"You'll think of something."
Some pretty stunning answers here from DHS Deputy Secretary Troy Edgar in today's interview with NPR's Michel Martin, in which Edgar equates pro-Palestinian protests with terrorist activity and can't point to any crime committed by Mahmoud Khalil: npr.org/2025/03/13/n...

When the Nazis protested with tiki torches in Charlottesville, Trump called them “fine people”.

When college students protested the genocide in Gaza, Trump called them “domestic terrorist”.

Released yesterday, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries unveiled a 10-point war plan for House Democrats to counter many of the Trump Admin's actions to dismantle the government.

Democratic lawmakers have already introduced a bill to prevent a similar Elon Musk takeover of any dept. #NebDems

Pay attention.
Elon and Trump took down the direct file feature on the IRS site. You will now be forced to use a corporation to file your taxes. Elon and Trump are making things harder and more expensive for middle class and working families.

If the FAA director got fired over a business beef AND there was an air traffic controller hiring freeze despite huge shortages AND a chaotic blitz to hollow out federal bureaucracy, and then within a week the first American airliner crashes in 16 years, you would be insane not to talk about it all.
