JUST IN: The FDA’s top vaccine official, Dr. Peter Marks, has been pushed out. In his resignation letter, he slams RFK Jr. for rejecting “truth and transparency” and pushing “misinformation and lies.” Marks warns of an “unprecedented assault on scientific truth.”

When I was in the Air Force, I would have been court-martialed for sharing mission plans and targets… Pete Hegseth is a disgrace to the military and our service members. He should resign immediately or be fired.

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this. The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

This brief statement regarding yet another example of dangerous rhetoric from President Trump, is “on-point.”

Kyle Clark@kylec.bsky.social

As a journalist who covers extremism at the local level, I think it’s a mistake to view Trump’s Napoleonic statement as solely about presidential power. Consider if it’s interpreted as a wink and a nod for any extremist to act outside the law to “save” the country as they see fit

File as many suits as possible, as soon as possible… Keep Pam Bondi busy defending the MAGA actions against our constitution.

Following pressure from their base for a more determined resistance to Trump, House Dems are putting together a task force that could lead to lawsuits against the administration.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

truthout.orgTesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3 Billion in IncomeThis brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.

Despicable move…

The New York Times@nytimes.com

The White House ordered the CIA to send an unclassified email listing all employees hired by the spy agency over the last two years to comply with an executive order to shrink the federal work force, in a move that former officials say risked the list leaking to adversaries.

Nancy Mace is a real piece of work. This Gaza takeover talk is nothing more (at present) than classic Trump diversion tactics from the real issue… a billionaire-led coup of the US Government

The Hegseth hearing is doing one thing incredibly well: it’s establishing that when his leadership at DoD fails, it’ll be clear that GOP Senators knew, excused it, and they own it. Serious concerns about experience & judgment are literally being laughed off.

NEW: William Webster, 100, The only man to lead both the FBI and CIA, urges the Senate to reject the nominations of Kash Patel & Tulsi Gabbard: “I urge you to weigh the critical importance of nonpartisan leadership and experience. The safety of the American people…depends on it”

AND, I submit, they want to stir-up the proverbial pot and keep everyone angry. That way you don’t realize how many millions are being to programs sponsored by very wealthy donors… ITS THE OLD WASHINGTON TWO-STEP!!

Mark Cuban@mcuban.bsky.social

I would be surprised if the government didn't shut down. It's the only way to find out what services people didn't know they were missing. Those are the ones Elon will say " see, no one noticed you were closed. Goodbye "
