I legit think this about most of the Treasury. DOGE was for establishing clearinghouse of sensitive data on the pulblic and packaging it for surveillance first, necrocapital second, and all those cuts were for unethical "contracts" to funnel resources to friends of authoritarians.

I'm willing to bet my favorite hat(which is a BIG bet for a bald man) that some of the SNAP money went to that tacky fucking gilded age party.

Oh now we believe Congress has power.

Unhinged demons, my GOD.

lol I said they spent that money. and therein lies the problem. lock them ppl up.

That was my first thought, but I also think several people in that regime have had their hand in every cookie jar that they can reach. And that DOGE served as cover for at least some of it.

Or so they say...I wouldn't put it pass that motherfucker just sticking the money in his pocket, thinking that this wouldn't get a lot of push back- especially since they let him get away with using ICE to snatch up folks.

I was thinking the same damn thing, cuz ain’t no fucking way! They have to be stealing every damn thing that ain’t nailed down right now. It feels so seedy and shady. Something is definitely off and has been for a stretch.

They even say it in their pleadings!!!

They for SURE spent that money.

This is so exciting!! I am brimming with schadenfreude! The comments include a fantastic interview with Khan that i really enjoyed listening to.

Very excited about this. Khan caused a whole rethink of modern monopoly.

Lina Khan, y'all. That is so metal. It means he's serious about affordability. Going after the big dogs who create structural economic inequality is her fucking JAM.

It’s basically saying to Silicon Valley and the crypto lobby that he’s not for sale and he won’t let them bully him.

There should be so much more noise about Lina Khan being a co-chair of the Mamdani transition team

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week. @wired.com #ICE www.wired.com/story/fbi-wa...

Bingo

Deep brown eyes + sunlight = Divine beauty

lol now i understand why the rich people were scared (positive)

BREAKING: Former FTC chair Lina Khan to serve as co-chair of Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral transition team.

No one gives broligarchs more nightmares than Lina Khan. This is gonna be great to witness.

Mamdani Brings Lina Khan Onto His Team After Historic Election Win newrepublic.com/post/202726/... via @newrepublic.com

Mamdani selecting Lina Khan as co-chair is absolutely incredible choice pick Mamdani might actually be the one to do it

Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani revealed an all-female transition team led by Elana Leopold as executive director. It also includes co-chairs Maria Torres-Springer, the former first deputy mayor; Lina Khan, the former federal trade commission chair... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Speaking at a morning press conference in Queens, the 34-year-old democratic socialist revealed an all-female transition team led by Elana Leopold as executive director. It also includes co-chairs Maria Torres-Springer, the former first deputy mayor; Lina Khan, the former federal trade commission

Lina Khan — former Chair of the Federal Trade Commission Maria Torres‑Springer — former First Deputy Mayor of #NYC Grace Bonilla — nonprofit sector leader  Melanie Hartzog — expert in city budgeting Elana Leopold — expert political strategist

For those who don’t know, Lina Khan is John Wick/Baba Yaga to Wall Street and billionaires

Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is playing chess and making really good moves. Tapping former FTC chair Lina Khan for his transition team has put fear into Wall Street. They absolutely loathe her John Wick approach to antitrust cases. She’s brilliant and unyielding. Great pick!

She is a rockstar! So glad to hear this. Congrats, Lina. The people have your back. If (when) Wall Street starts giving you crap, it will be time to revive the Occupy movement. No Kings!

yep, need more like her balls-to-the-wall deregulation never ends well #RiskManagement

"Lina Khan Is Just Getting Started (She Hopes) - Biden’s FTC chair has toughened merger oversight, taken on noncompetes, and made the donor class crazy. She hints that there’s a lot more to come, if she’s given the chance." www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

One of the reasons #KamalaHarris lost the election is that when the #Techbro #billionaires told her they wouldn't give her donations unless she got rid of #LinaKhan, Harris rolled over and abandoned Khan. So glad to see #Mamdani continue to embrace Lina. nypost.com/2024/07/31/u...

I was seeing the material and oh how much I smiled Good for y'all, really <3 This will only get stronger and go beyond boarders!

And not just to spite the tech bros, but to help consumers! In addition to her anti trust work, her FTC enacted policies like click to cancel so companies couldn't hassle customers into keeping service they didn't want. Maybe a small win, but more of that!

y'all coulda had a GENOCIDAL baddie in the white house & i'll never let you forget the bolded part you keep leaving out

OMGOMGOMG! Completely psyched to see this; one of the finest legal and organizational minds of our era who has remained dedicated to public service. Faster, please.

Yeah, Lina did not play around and she held very rich people's feet to the fire and lord knows they hate that shit. Love to see this. Hope it is a sign of things to come for the Democratic Party.

Democrats need to start becoming more vocally against AI and data centers if they wanna get ahead of the bubble burst.

She was fearless, pragmatic, strategic, and a great systems thinker who held power to account.

Ohhhhh Zohran is so much cooler than I thought, I'm praying that he is well protected 🙏🏻💜

Oh, I wish she was in her former position but this is good too.

Lina Khan stans we are SO BACK

Que Mamdani ha fichado a Linda Khan. Esta tía es BUENÍSIMA. Pero buenísima de verdad.

THIS is what we should be talking about

25 glorious minutes of Lina Khan & Heather Cox Richardson www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ydxk...

You see how many of these politicians CARRIED in their election races WITHOUT throwing trans people under the bus? Exactly, exactly.

For those who cant see it. It is hilarious how far they are going to protect a dead goblins feelings

BlueSky moderation is a fucking joke lmao

Wow. W O W . Just fucking WOW.

Dick Cheney going to hell and Zohran Mamdani getting elected on the same day are a win in my book.
