The "Department of Government Efficiency" has disbanded eight months early. DOGE sowed chaos throughout the government and disrupted services relied upon by millions, while finding hardly any savings. Here's what you should know about damage that DOGE leaves behind.

We’re about to invade Venezuela because trump wants their oil. No other reason. The airspace has been cleared. Embassies are being evacuated. Flights are being canceled. He’s going to kill people for oil.

Want peace in Ukraine? Here’s the plan: Russia, GET THE FUCK OUT. There. Simple. Get it done. #SlavaUkraine

The only “peace plan” that makes sense is the one from Sanna Marin, Finland’s former Prime Minister: “The way out of the conflict is for Russia to leave Ukraine. That is the way out of the conflict.”

Word of the day is ‘quockerwodger’ (19th century): a puppet politician whose strings are pulled entirely by someone else.

ICYMI due to all the other breaking ⚖️ news yesterday:

Lying liars lie. Seeing lying Mike Johnson get called out so exquisitely is something I wanted to share. @lawrenceodonnelljr.bsky.social Well done, sir! #EpsteinFiles are bigger than tRump. This is a global network that requires accountability.⚖️ youtu.be/svoaBLhc8O0?...

Whoa, this is wild. Either Thune played Johnson or Johnson tried to play us and failed. Either way, Johnson looks like a fool and Trump has lost his grip on Congress. @lawrenceodonnelljr.bsky.social just blew it open 🔥

All that waffling on by Mike Johnson (not-so-convertly directing the Senate to alter the House bill and then further delay their vote), the Senate unanimously signs off on the House Bill. Over to you now, tRump. Sign it, and let the enforcement battle begin. ⚖️ #EpsteinFiles #ListenToTheSurvivors

This is the reporter that Donald Trump called "Piggy." She is Catherine Lucey, currently with Bloomberg. I don't think it is a coincidence that, back in 2018, Lucey was the first reporter to ask Trump about Stormy Daniels. Trump responded with a lie, but, clearly, did not forget the question.

“The largest company you’ve never heard of” ~ responsible for defending websites against malicious attacks, etc….what could possibly go wrong? 😳 FBI, US Depts of State, Interior … just some of their clients. It’s not just “Twitter is down”…. apple.news/Ar700VmcNR1K...

Annie and Maria, I am so sorry. I’m so angry on your behalves. 1996 — nearly 30 years ago, if only someone would have listened…💔💔💔 You’re right: this has been institutional betrayal.💔

Today’s Daily Stoic: “.. The call to courage is not simply the call to conquer fear. It is the call to conquer fear in service of something greater than yourself. To speak the truth, even when it costs you. To do what’s right, even when it’s hard.” @dailystoic.com.web.brid.gy dailystoic.com

Amidst all the chaos of the week, I can always count on the music of Tim Minchin @timminchin.bsky.social to escape me to another plane…sometimes via an airport piano. 🩵🎹🩵 youtu.be/ZAFMSplS4y8?...

The BBC needs to take a leaf out of his book on the Trump threat to sue.

Peak irony. 🤬

Release the #EpsteinFiles.

“Once upon a time, two pedos/paedos had a pissing contest over a property in Florida….” That’s how this revenge story starts…. Never underestimate the fragility and reactivity of the male ego. Whomever coined the phrase about a woman scorned and her fury…well, Epstein said, “Hold my beer.”

Very true…..

Just remember: a short month ago, “Randy Andy” was still a “Prince” — so keep going, keep demanding transparency, keep fighting for all the victims.✊⚖️

after reading today's avalanche of #Epstein news it's clear we need to broaden our thinking in terms of who—and which companies—deserve scorn for colluding with sexual predators and, yes, rapists 🎩 @melissjpeltier.bsky.social @themaltesemama.bsky.social @loveon9.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/arab...

Just a reminder: Matt Gaetz was tRump’s first pick for Attorney General to lead the Department of Justice (now led by Pam Bondi)—the same Matt Gaetz who stepped away from being a re-elected congressman because an ethics investigation against him was about to divulge his activities and proclivities.

🧵 Seriously. The interconnectedness of all these predators is a tightly woven web. Failure of imagination is no excuse for not facing how far and wide (and for how long!!!) they have conducted their hypocritical power grabs.👇 #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

New Post: Katie Wilson is Seattle’s Next Mayor seattletransitblog.com/2025/11/13/k...

Michael Wolff wasn’t blind; he was complicit. He advised Epstein, shielded Trump, and let a sexual predator, felon, misogynist, liar, authoritarian, and traitor ascend to the presidency. He could have stopped everything. Instead, he sold survivors out for access and a paycheck.

Epstein: I’m best friends with this pedo running for President, here’s a bunch of stories about how big a pedo he is NYT: but her emails

Beware of scammer. Please report this account to @safety.bsky.app as I have:

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

Abortion access is healthcare access. There is no acceptable compromise in this regard. MAGAts need to get the f*ck out of women’s healthcare and reproductive decisions. #Resist #EnoughIsEnough #FuckThePatriarchy

BREAKING: The Supreme Court rejects a call to overturn its decision legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide.

Yep

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

The Democrats who caved just taught Republicans that using mass starvation as a weapon works.

As long as NYT is asking “Did women ruin the workplace” can they also ask: •Did men ruin safe workplaces? •Did men ruin domestic safety? •Did men ruin public safety? •Did men ruin global peace? Or is a clear “YES” to all these questions just too difficult for fragile men to accept—so NYT avoids it?🤔

Don’t be a catchfart.

Another calculation I hear says that Climate change has made hurricanes on average 10 miles an hour stronger but that extra 10 mile an hour winds speeds are responsible for 45% of the damage. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

Remember, remember the 5th of November! #GuyFawkes

Actually, NYC Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani first said (in his acceptance speech) four words to tRump — because he *knew* tRump was watching: “Turn up the volume.”🗣️💙🗣️
