Good day to remember that DOGE has already lost the US government at least half a trillion dollars this year alone. And likely more.

"Listen Assholes: I have jurisdiction over YOU. And if you don't do as I order, those guys in El Salvador won't be the only ones in jail. Now, hop to it."

Haven’t seen anyone on my TL point out that what’s happening here is that DOGE and the US Marshals threatened civilian employees with violence
"The leaders refused to succumb to the efforts of Mr. Marocco & the [DOGE] team, overseen by Elon Musk, to assume control of their functions, dismiss staff members and install Mr. Marocco as the acting leader." HE CANNOT BE AN ACTING LEADER. NO STATUTE PERMITS IT. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/06/u...

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who killed so many children in Samoa they ran out of child-sized coffins, has been confirmed to lead Health and Human Services.
The vote was 52-48. All Dems and Mitch McConnell, whose fault this is, voted no. All other Republicans voted yes. The blood will be on their hands.

As we start another week, my law firm is litigating 46 voting and election cases in 19 states. A team starts trial to protect the Voting Rights Act in Alabama tomorrow!
