At OPM, Musk’s staffers won’t leaveβ€”they work around the clock and have even installed sofa beds in the office. Our access to data systems has been restricted, raising serious concerns about cybersecurity and a complete lack of oversight. We are keeping our heads down and documenting everything.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Last I checked the House still controls the power of the purse, not an unelected racist. Where is Congress in stopping this man from destroying our economy?

If I may, the press: Do not write "Trump blamed DEI." Spell out what he's saying. "Trump blamed women, black people, and other minorities for the mid-air collision." Follow that up with: "He did not specify which black people or women."

Trump Guts Key Aviation Safety Committee, Fires Heads Of TSA, Coast Guard The committee will technically continue to exist, but it won't have any members to carry out the work of examining safety issues at airlines and airports.

Dems should call for immediate hearings on what caused tonight’s plane crash, including the impact of the removal of FAA safety protocols and personnel.

A screenshot from ADS-B Exchange displaying live aircraft tracking over Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) and the surrounding area. The map shows multiple aircraft icons, with some on the ground at DCA and others in flight. Aircraft callsigns such as 'JBU2523,' 'AAL5307,' and 'PAT25' are labeled. 'PAT25' and 'JIA5342' appear to be on a collison course at the same altitude, following an orange flight path along the Potomac River. The background includes a map of Washington, D.C., Arlington, and the surrounding areas, with notable landmarks like the Pentagon and the Defense Intelligence Agency visible.

From initial information appears PSA Airlines 5342, a CRJ 700 collided with PAT25, an Army transport helicopter on the approach end of runway 33 at DCA, Reagan National Airport

iirc the PAT helos are gold top UH-60s used for VIP transport

Donald Trump has just released a national under 18 trans care ban executive order. I am working through specifically how it tries to do this, and will live tweet here section by section as I read through it.

It is not yet on the website, but has been released via press release.

What OMB is doing violates the constitution itself. The ICA fills in the details of how congress and the executive interact over the spending power, but finding the ICA unconstitutional and ratifying OMB’s action here would mean overthrowing the most fundamental constitutional design.

Two parties running at different speeds.

Senate Dems are holding a press conference today to condemn the pardoning of J6ers. That was done a week ago.

Unclear if there is a presser today to go after the OMB's power play to take over all federal grant money.

SUBJECT:
Temporary Pause of Agency Grant, Loan, and Other Financial Assistance Programs
'The American people elected Donald J. Trump to be President of the United States and gave him a mandate to increase the impact of every federal taxpayer dollar. In Fiscal Year 2024. of the nearly $10 trillion that the Federal Government spent, more than $3 trillion was Federal financial assistance, such as grants and loans. Career and political appointees in the Executive Branch have a duty to align Federal spending and action with the will of the American people as expressed through Presidential priorities. Financial assistance should be dedicated to advancing Administration priorities, focusing taxpayer dollars to advance a stronger and safer America, eliminating the financial burden of inflation for citizens, unleashing American energy and manufacturing, ending wokeness" and the weaponization of government, promoting efficiency in government, and Making America Healthy Again. The use of Federal resources to advance Marxist equity, transgenderism, and green new deal social engineering policies is a waste of taxpayer dollars that does not improve the day-to-day lives of those we serve.
This memorandum requires Federal agencies to identify and review all Federal financial assistance programs and supporting activities consistent with the President's policies and requirements. For example, during the initial days of his Administration, President Donald J Trump issued a series of executive orders to protect the American people and safeguard valuable taxpayer resources, including Protecting the American People Against Invasion (Jan. 20, 2025).
