Washington Post analysis of contract data found that many canceled contracts were already complete, canceling them didn’t yield any money back because they had been fully paid out, 417 of the deals on DOGE’s list indicate that they saved $0. Another 51 added up to savings of just under $1 million.

Sorry if others noted on Friday on unitary executive tea-leaves: In Bessent v. Dellinger, when the Court declined to lift a TRO against Trump's removal of Special Counsel Dellinger, Gorsuch (joined by Alito) signaled he is pushing Seila Law & removal next-level. (But only Gorsuch & Alito...)

My fear is Trump is "putting people in place for when that fateful day arrives & the suggestion is made, as it was in the Oval Office, 'should we just shoot them in the legs,' ... my fear is there will be officers in the room who say sure, we will shoot them," retired Rear Adm. James McPherson said.

The Justice Department is not the president's personal law firm. You are not his lawyers. The free press should be exactly that — free. If the facts they report don’t align with the president’s propaganda, tough. And this statement is a disgrace to the DOJ and the rule of law.

Musk intends to cut at least 50% of the total workforce at HUD, specifically targeting parts of the agency relating to disaster recovery, first-time homebuyers, discrimination, and rental subsidies. Tell me they aren’t trying to destroy the poorest and most vulnerable among us! #MAGANazism

BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism. As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

When America’s greatest generation fought the Nazis during World War 2, it’s doubtful they could have imagined a universe where Germany is a more trusted ally to the rest of Europe than the United States but here we are.

I find it incomprehensible that so many Democratic politicians post on Twitter but NOT on Bluesky. I post on both platforms whenever possible, but I’ll post on Bluesky FIRST. I mean, WTF? 🤬

Over the course of my career, @joyannreid.bsky.social has been one of the few to give me and so many other Black voices consistent airtime. In a time in which Black women’s voices are needed now more than ever— This cancellation hurts, but the bounce back will be impeccable. We got you, Joy.

Jeffries: "This budget is a betrayal of working-class Americans... We only need 3 House Republicans -- there are 215 Democrats in the House - we only need 3 to stand up on behalf of their constituents, and that is going to be an ongoing effort over these next few days, to identify those individuals"

This is one of those things that I have frankly never had cause to think about and is now going to become relevant for a bunch of people who shouldn't have to care. And this is just going to keep happening with more government functions, until the administration collapses or we all die.
