When he returned to the White House in January 2025, he brought this tic with him. The plan to fire federal employees was ahead of schedule in March 2025, and bringing gas prices down was ahead of schedule a month later. Passage of the “One Big Beautiful Bill” was ahead of schedule in May and then again in July.
In October, the country learned that Trump had authorized the destruction of the East Wing of the White House, the first step in a massive project aimed at building a ballroom for official events. This would be a $200 million project, the White House website assured Americans, and — sure enough! — would be completed ahead of schedule.
“It’ll be under budget, ahead of schedule,” Trump said in March. “It’ll be $400 million or less.”
The project was delayed after preservationists sued to keep it from moving forward. But when a “schedule” exists solely as a rhetorical device, an abstraction that the president can be ahead of, such delays get shrugged aside as easily as a doubling of the budget.
For Trump, everything is always "ahead of schedule" for the same reason that everything is the "greatest" and has "never been seen before": it's a boastful superlative he has internalized regardless of whether there's any connection to reality.

Whistleblower claims ex-DOGE member says he took Social Security data to new job
The Social Security inspector general’s office is investigating allegations that the former DOGE engineer took sensitive data on a thumb drive in a major potential security breach, said people familia...
It was not enough for Elon Musk's minions to gut the Social Security Agency.
An ex-DOGE engineer allegedly took SSA's master databases of personal information to a job in the private sector.
DOGE was never about fighting fraud. It was about exposing Americans to more of it.

Morning Joe is getting on my nerves. His claim that the party in power always think they’re going to be in power forever isn’t true. I have never seen a party that actually thought they were never going to have to leave much less try to make it so until Republicans now or mainly MAGA.

Dems call for probe into 'troubling pattern' of legal wins for Pam Bondi's brother
Two Democrats are calling on the DOJ internal watchdog to launch a probe into what they say is a "troubling pattern" of favorable outcomes for Brad Bondi's clients.
Pam Bondi has failed to explain how her brother and his corporate clients continue to achieve unexpected and favorable outcomes in cases in which the Bondi Justice Department intervenes.
@congressmin.bsky.social and I are urging the DOJ Inspector General to launch an investigation.

As a congressman, Markwayne Mullin made not one but two solo trips to Afghanistan, ignoring State Department warnings so he could play action hero.
He’s a former amateur MMA fighter, not a veteran.
If he’d been captured or injured, American troops would’ve had to risk their lives to bail him out.

The richest Americans saw their net worth soar 120% from 2017 to 2025.
The top 1% now control $55.8 trillion in assets — more than the G.D.P. of the United States and China combined.
Meanwhile, millions of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.
Still wondering if inequality is out of control?
