Picture how big the Hoover Dam is. An absolute unit. The Hoover Dam has a power capacity of 2 gigawatts (GW).

President Donald Trump’s new scheme to transform the federal government into a pharmacy is already raising red flags for legal and health experts.

Especially since the Trump administration has a history of playing it fast and loose with Americans’ private information. trib.al/qV0IKgm

Democrats remain united in our strong opposition to the dangerous GOP budget.

There are 220 Republicans in the House.

All we need are 4 to join us and we can kill the One Big Ugly Bill.

We’re witnessing a broad assault on that genuinely meritocratic achievement, the civil service—one that could enable right-wing elites to corruptly loot the place, or install a highly “personalist” government marked above all by loyalty to Trump himself, or some combination of the two.
Trump and Elon Musk Just Pulled Off Another Purge—and It’s a Scary One
Did Musk’s alleged effort to access the government’s payment systems have Trump’s blessing? Or was he going rogue? Either scenario is bad, but one’s a little worse.

News Analysis: President Trump abruptly fired dozens of officials in the past few days in ways that apparently violated federal laws, setting up the possibility of lawsuits. But the prospect of getting dragged into court may be exactly what Trump’s lawyers are hoping for.
