DOGE said it was cutting government waste.
So they gutted USAID β the agency that feeds starving people around the world.
Meanwhile the Pentagon spent millions on lobster, ribeye, and even a $98,000 piano.

Ukraine is actively protecting our troops and Russia is actively helping Iran target them.
But every single time he's tested, Trump sides with Putin. It's the most consistent he is on any topic. No matter what they do, Trump is on Team-Russia.
At this point it really doesn't matter why.
Yeah. Trump is sick in the head! We don't need a brain surgeon to tell us what we already know, but there it is. This explains it. So why is this lunatic still allowed to ruin our country?
Watch the end of the video.
Minnesotans canβt afford the Trump economy.

Told yβall Elonβs DOGE team werenβt data analysts.
They were hackers!
A whistleblower says a DOGE engineer stole Social Security data and put it on a thumb drive, including personal information on hundreds of millions of Americans.
People need to go to prison for this shit.
There are signals from various sources that Russia knows it is going to lose in its illegal invasion of Ukraine. We must prevent Donald Trump from assisting Vladimir Putin any further with one of his bullshit deals. Keep the pressure on.
If youβre not willing to be on the front lines, you shouldnβt be allowed to start a war.
Dumb Shit just started a war where Iran, Saudi Arabia and Israel are going to wipe out each others oil infrastructure. Only rich people will be able to afford gas after that.

Trump & his push to pass the SAVE ACT
Trump cannot just decree we don't have mail-in voting
The CONSTITUTION states that each state gets to set it's own rules for running elections
Once again, please call your Representatives 202 224-3121
Vote NO on the SAVE ACT
A quiet contradiction is unfolding in Washington. War with Iran⦠while cutting pieces of the government machinery that supports those efforts.
That tension deserves a closer look.

(cartoon Dave Granlund)
So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.
That's $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.
$11,574 per second.
Thousands of lives lost.
People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
If there's a draft, ICE agents should be first in line.
The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.
We're at war with Iran because the President of the United States likes to fuck kids
That's super clear, right?
He fucks kids
Children
Trump fucks Children
That needs to be very clear
My godβ¦
What sane person, much less a president of the United States, talks like this?
Trump IS insaneβTrump IS NOT a president.
He is an insane, convicted felon, pedophile dictator destroying a free America and now the world.
Killing American soldiers and Iraqi civilians at $1 billion a day.
STOP NOW

US CITIZEN Sunny Naqvi, born & raised outside Chicago, 2 other citizens & 3 legal residents were detained at O'Hare Airport.
CBP took Sunny to Broadview Detention, then moved her to a Wisconsin facility & finally abandoned her at a gas station after 2 days of lies to her family & police.
Now ICE is stealing our journalists. Fucking cowards.
We can throw another $500,000,000,000 at the Pentagon this year and spend $1,000,000,000/day on a wholly useless war, but we can't afford to hire doctors and nurses to take care of our veterans? The United States is such an irresponsible, messed up country right now.
ICE is STILL in Minnesota and STILL terrorizing communities. Reporters that say otherwise are either uninformed (which....) or lazy (which... ) or just repeating regime lies (which... is also extremely bad).
People are still missing, people are and will be traumatized, businesses demolished...

The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. Theyβre tapping in to get in on the violence.
And then he bragged about it on X later.
The Trump Administration is considering asking Congress for new emergency spending for the Iran War.
Hell no. This is our chance to draw a line in the sand and use our power to stop this war before it kills more Americans and sends the Middle East into more chaos.
The Trump DOJ has been taking down Epstein files.
The massive tranche of files the Justice Department currently maintains is more than 65,000 pages shorter than what the agency initially released, according to a CBS analysis β and the number continues to fluctuate.
[TW: graphic fracture, sound of breaking bone]
Sen Tim Sheehy (R-Montana) badly breaking the arm of a Marine veteran protesting the war Iran.
Private bounty hunters are pointing weapons at Minnesota residents, and the local Sheriffβs office is refusing to take action.
Americans are dead. Prices are skyrocketing. The Middle East is on fire. Civil war is brewing in Iran.
And for what? A war that will leave the same hardliners in charge? A war that can't actually destroy their nuclear program?
This is incompetence. Plain and simple.
