“DOGE doesn’t care what we do and will treat us the same as all other agencies: with contempt,” an Energy Information Administration staffer emailed her bosses this year. “Shame on you for falling in line and giving up without any perceptible effort to fight.”

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines.

When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

To me, a Nazi salute means, "I want to murder your family." There can be no irony about it: It puts deep anger and hatred in my heart to see it done and I will never forgive anyone who justifies or minimizes it.

Donald Trump is a Russian asset; it no longer matters if it’s witting or unwitting. He routinely spreads disinformation that originates in the Kremlin and the FSB, and does it to hurt America and our friends.

If you support Trump, you have—morally speaking—betrayed your country.

The federal civilian worker payroll totaled $271 billion in 2022.

The annual cost of permanently extending Trump's tax cuts that primarily benefited rich individuals? $400 billion.

Keep this in mind as Trump and DOGE lay off thousands of federal workers.
