WHAT'S GOIN' ON:
President Trump and his sidekick from South Africa are undertaking an administrative and digital coup in Washington D.C., firing dozens of career government officials (not loyal to them,) pardoning convicted criminals, freezing funding programs crucial to human and economic health, illegally pawing for federal fund deposits. I will be running a series of bulletins, shared across multiple platforms, containing bite-sized accounts of what is happening. Call your congressperson and do not sit there as if it's not happening or that nothing can be done about it. Dare to share. It's your democracy.Bulletin #5
From Josh Marshall:
"...while the particulars are hard to pin down my impression is that the Musk takeover stuff is considerably worse than is being presented in the press...
...they already have [control] over key computer systems, payment systems, etc...
...They’re into the treasury payment system and claiming they’ve already found like $4B in “savings” a day. It’s important to know what this means. This is simple, his DOGE team is reviewing the US federal budget, law of the land and deciding which parts aren’t necessary. It sounds like they’re saying they will unilaterally cut these funds with control over the check writing at Treasury. "
