Elon Musk has taken over two government agencies: USAID, the main U.S. humanitarian aid agency, and OPM, which oversees 2.2M government employees. He's locked employees out of their computer systems and, with help from young engineers, has accessed the Treasury Department's payment systems. Professor Don Moynihan at the Ford School of Public Policy, University of Michigan, said Americans are witnessing 'an extraordinary centralization of power in someone who lacks a top-level security clearance and has not been subject to any Senate confirmation process.'

The military isn’t meant to be political, but Trump is looking to change that. After he fired the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and five other admirals and generals, it's more important than ever for the military to remember their oath to the Constitution. A retired Army general and former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff appointed by Trump said it perfectly back in 2023.

‘The most powerless image of a president ever created by a camera’

They voted against 'preferred pronouns' and now they want people to use the ones they prefer? Seems a bit unfair 🤷

Adin Ross, a fervent Trump supporter, is reaping what he sowed, having lost over $10 million due to Trump's tariffs. Guess gifting a custom Tesla Cybertruck and Rolex didn't buy him economic immunity. #adinross #trump #tariffs

‘His cities are being bombed, and we're talking about his clothes? It was victim shaming, which is what Trump has been doing to Zelensky and Ukraine since before he got elected’ 🔥

Another reason to never underestimate feminine rage — because no one can chew you up and spit you out like a young woman.

The Atlantic published screenshots of the group chat revealing the Trump administration's attempts to downplay the severity of its communications. The publication shared the full conversation, including a complete list of members (excluding a CIA intelligence officer) and a screenshot clearly showing National Security Adviser Michael Waltz adding editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg to the chat. These revelations directly challenge the narrative pushed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and other Trump administration officials. Under sworn testimony yesterday, DNI Tulsi Gabbard stated that no classified information was shared. Today's hearing is expected to bring intense scrutiny. #trump #petehegseth #CIA

The system was already broken, and now Trump and Homan are making it worse. Imagine doing everything right, and still getting deported or separated from your family.

Larry showed up to the hearing intending to speak in support of the anti-trans bill. But once he was welcomed by the queer people there, his heart changed

Points were made! Shoutout to @franifio for calling out RFK Jr.'s bullsh*t.

Slashing the Department of Education is not going to help bring jobs to America

Here’s the story of how Elon Musk took over Tesla and forced them to give him a founder title

‘You ran out of really healthy, they had great arms, but they ran out. It’s called sports. It’s called baseball in particular.’

Didn't hear an answer to the question during Rollins' rant

It took just 2 weeks and 2 days for Trump to step so far out of line that a Democrat introduced articles of impeachment against him
