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.

NEW: The Iranian drone strike that killed 6 U.S. troops in Kuwait at the start of the war was far more devastating than previously disclosed.
Dozens suffered traumatic brain injuries, burns, and shrapnel wounds. At least one required an amputation. More than 30 remain hospitalized. (CBS News)
Not only is the president mentally unfit, all of his sycophants in the Congress and Senate are too.
Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws?
Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?
I think we’re past any sort of legitimate foreign policy strategy or even Trump giving free wars for the benefit of his foreign business partners.
We’re in the malignant narcissistic rage spiral of a guy who know he’s going to die soon & would rather break the world than it go on without him.
Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs
BREAKING IRAN:
☑️ US base in Kuwait “entirely decommissioned”’
☑️ US base in Bahrain hit by drones, severe damage
☑️ US carrier Abraham Lincoln attacked with 4 missiles
☑️ 560+US troops killed and wounded thus far
The President has launched our nation and our great military into a war of choice, risking American lives and resources, ignoring American law, and endangering our allies and partners. It does nothing to help with the urgent problems here at home that Americans face every day.
Morning.

Don’t turn on the State of the Union on Tuesday. Make it the lowest rated in history.
Newsom: And I think there’s going to be a hell of a State of the Union. I imagine that could mean more forays overseas — watch what happens with Iran. But this weakness is on display. World leaders have finally figured it out and the American people are seeing it, too.
“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔

How many do not have the resources to go through all of this as women? I am lucky enough to have a passport with my married name. $130. That’s a poll tax. How many women/others cannot afford the 1st app(has to be done in person)?This is voter suppression. I wish more people saw and understood that.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
WTF?
"We'll take our stand for this land & the stranger in our midst..."
Powerful. Brutal. Inspirational. A loving tribute to Renée Good, Alex Pretti & the good people of Minneapolis.
Plus, it name-checks all the villains: the Puppy Killer🐶, Pee-Wee German🇩🇪, the Orange Atrocity🍊💩 & above all: ICE🧊🚫

Across America and the world, people are realizing it’s not possible to appease America’s dictator.
The only way to deal with him is to stand up to him — and the only way to stand up to him is by joining together against him.
It's time for a massive general strike across the country.

It has been a hell of a week! Not sure if you saw this , but sure worth reposting.
We do not, in fact, 'hold all the cards,' you big stupid ignorant demented pedophile asshole.
Blood on their hands.
To those blaming Walz for not mobilizing the Guard, he did that six days ago. I have to say it's disturbing to see people angry at Walz instead of the government agents that just executed a man. As though we should all be experts about what to do when a secret police force invades an American city.
Our Shetland pony did that.
🇨🇦PM Carney just schooled our cowardly European leaders at #Davos. This speech was clearly aimed at them:
"We must actively take on the world as it is, not wait around for a world we wish to be."
"What does it mean for middle powers to live the truth? First it means naming reality..." (🧵1/6)
