A trove of nearly 3,200 disclosure records, which ProPublica made public this week, reveals a web of financial ties between Trump officials and the industries they help regulate.

In honor of no Noem, post a cute dog.

McClatchy wants you to invest in a Sacramento Bee subscription, but the company doesn’t want to invest in its reporters. Under management’s latest offer, seven local journalists would still make salaries low enough to qualify them for low-income housing.

Definitely in our regular rotation.

Some news. No big deal.

No Kings is reporting that 7,000,000 Americans turned out to rally against Trump today. That's over THREE TIMES the number of votes Donald Trump claims to have gotten over Kamala Harris.

Gotta block ‘em all! Here’s the one-stop shopping blocklist to disappear the Trump regime accounts that swarmed Bluesky yesterday. Flush these turds HERE - bsky.app/profile/did:...

If a military parade marches down a street and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

Opuntia blooming again.

On April 5, we’re uniting to say Hands Off! Join me to fight back against Trump’s unprecedented power grab. app.sosha.ai/s/5WMJzkdm

Omg this 💥

Guess what? Elon’s government email address just went public. Do with this what you will 😉 [email protected] newrepublic.com/maz/post/192...

Behold the failure of mainstream media

Pam Bondi, the former U.S. Attorney General, was allegedly on Qatar’s payroll, pocketing $115,000 a month as a registered foreign agent. The same Qatar that has allegedly funneled over $1.8 billion to Hamas. But sure, let’s keep pretending foreign influence in U.S. politics is only a problem

Trump and Musk are doing a $350 billion pump and dump with your tax money. Trump’s “Crypto Reserve” is a money laundering scheme and you are being robbed blind.

Some are saying Democrats shouldn't attend Donald Trump's State of the Union. I disagree. They should attend. And the minute he starts speaking, start getting up, one-by-one, and solemnly leave the chamber. It will be all anyone talks about the next day. And will drive Donald crazy.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Every accusation is an intention.

Perspective.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

The TL is bleak but Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, donated her Tesla to @npr

Follow the money.

The BBC is quite correct.

Good morning. The House voted yesterday to kick millions of off their health care, close rural hospitals, and shut down addiction clinics. All in order to afford a giant tax cut for Elon Musk, Donald Trump and their billionaire and corporate friends.

This is what House Republicans voted for tonight. Another reminder that we have socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for the rest.

Part of an answer to my anguished question about what to do in defense.

Not a good look.

They are stealing from you.

When companies invest in DEI, they invest in people. Now's the time for Target to stand firm in its values, not retreat. Will you add your name to call on Target's leadership to reinstate its DEI programs? sign.moveon.org/petitions/ta...

Selecting another right-wing Fox personality and internet troll — Dan Bongino — as Deputy FBI Director means two things: Trump installs another loyalist who won’t say no to any immoral or unethical act. And our law enforcement agencies — and the public safety — are further degraded.

Surprise, surprise: Donald Trump's pick for Education Secretary wants to abolish the entire Education Department. Students will pay the price.

Hmmm.

Musk called DOGE “maximally transparent,” but it has refused to release info about its spending and operations — including the names of its employees. ProPublica has identified 46 of them, including 12 new names we've just added.

If you're looking for a word to describe Donald Trump & Elon Musk, the Germans are seven decades ahead of you.

If Republicans pass their budget and you make less than $157,500 then you will pay more taxes so that you can fund tax breaks for people who make more than $360,000. Does that seem fair to you?

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

America's first gender neutral bathroom was Rush Limbaugh's gravesite.

10% of NASA’s workforce has been laid off—guess that’ll be a boost for SpaceX.

More media controlling the narrative—The Washington Post refused to run an ad that said, “Fire Elon Musk.”
