A DOGE Bro Allegedly Walked Out Of Social Security With 500 Million Americans’ Records On A Thumb Drive And Expected A Pardon If Caught From the very beginning of the DOGE saga, many of us raised alarms about what would happen when a bunch of inexperienced twenty-somethings were handed unfettered access to the most sensitive databases in the federal government with essentially zero oversight and zero adherence to the security protocols that exist for very good reasons. We wrote about it when a 25-year-old was pushing untested code into the Treasury's $6 trillion payment system…

Ein Video, in dem man über eine Minute lang die Flammen zeigt, in denen sechs Menschen schrecklich getötet wurden, ohne jede Analyse oder Einordnung, hat nichts mit Journalismus zu tun. Das ist perverser Voyeurismus.

Sogar 20 Minuten sollte es besser wissen.

We Stopped Feeding the World to Buy Lobster The administration gutted global aid in the name of fighting government waste. At the same time, the Pentagon spent millions on steak, crab, furniture, and even a $98,000 piano.

DOGE said it was cutting government waste.
So they gutted USAID — the agency that feeds starving people around the world.

Meanwhile the Pentagon spent millions on lobster, ribeye, and even a $98,000 piano.

Seems troubling.

More troubling would be the idea that the Administration might have bombed Iran without expecting this.

Trump knows how to waste money.
Each Patriot missile costs the US government about $4 million, so Trump blew $3.2 Billion and he is unable to say for what.
This mindless waste of both funds & US military capability is just what you expect from a man opposed to thinking.

So far, we’ve gotten into:

1. The oil-tanker escort business
2. The shipping-insurance business
3. The militia-arms and finance business

And it’s only Tuesday.

Pres Trump told me tonight the US had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in the initial attack.

"The attack was so successful it knocked out most of the candidates," Trump told me. "It's not going to be anybody that we were thinking of because they are all dead. Second or third place is dead."

Footage of joint Russian-Iranian drills just two weeks ago, February 19, 2026.

When Iran turned to Putin for help, it was refused, even though Russia called Iran an important ally and signed a strategic partnership agreement with it a year ago.

ZELENSKYY ON IRAN: The situation in the Middle East shows how difficult it is to provide 100% protection against missiles and "Shahed" drones.

DOJ's recent 6th Circuit filing misspelled:

Voters as “Votors”
Emergency as "Emeregency"
United States as "United Staes"

And, it included a non-party in the caption.

These are the people who want access to your sensitive voting records and who my team fights in court every day.
