This is Nathan Cavanaugh, another DOGE staffer explaining how he flagged grants at NEH for "DEI" which would be reviewed for termination. 404 Media has reviewed hours of this footage and we'll have more soon.

On the left is a black cat sort of squinting at the camera. On the right is a blurry pug with his tongue out. They’re both way too close to the camera to see much

As an American taxpayer I would like to spend taxes on helping people who are down, lifting people up, great schools, libraries and a taco truck on every corner.

Canceling lecture tomorrow so we can debate what ghosts we think Quinn Hughes is seeing. I’m voting for Visigoth ghosts, since he’s in Milan.

Noooo!

No lie, he was my first crush. When I was like 3 years old I told everyone I was going to marry him (I guess I saw him speaking on TV once and fell in love?). My mom got me a doll of him (yeah there was a Jesse Jackson doll) and I brought it everywhere with me.

WHAT DID PEOPLE THINK IT WAS USING TO BEGIN WITH?

Doesn't anyone remember that math has to come from numbers?
Percentages and graphs have to come from data. Where's the data?

AI doesn't "show its work" because it can't!
Everyone is going to fail their audits.
