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.
So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.
WOW! Former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe called Donald Trump and MAGA a "Nazi movement" and was arrested and carried out of a city council meeting by police.
1) This is the executive order that establishes Trump as dictator. It’s also how Trump is going to get around the court orders and defy them. By forcing federal employees to do it or be fired. So now the president alone interprets law. There’s a lot to cover, so let’s begin⬇️
Holy shit. Instead of admitting they were wrong, @DOGE literally changed FPDS data to try to cover their asses. The website now says $8B but you can easily verify that the real number is $8M by cross-referencing with any other source as noted below.
This is not true: the Clinton effort was led by VP Gore who assembled a task force of hundreds of federal workers to spend 6 months looking across gov’t and issue recommendations by September
1993. The recommendations became BIPARTISAN legislation that was passed into law.
14 people died in Kentucky, 1,000 have been rescued, and several states face massive flooding—yet Trump, who posted in recent days about Daytona 500, Elon Musk, Democrats and Ukraine, hasn't said a word about Kentucky and the victims.
Trump doesn't give a shit about ordinary Americans
After several delays, @DOGE has finally posted its purported savings. Why did it take so long to create a simple webpage with a 1000-row table? Who knows! Let's dig in.
Headline number: $55B saved. They list the savings per nixed contract. This should be easy to verify then.

This is why you fight these cowards.
The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.
Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.
He can threaten me with jail & call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.
“Utter nonsense.”
Andrew Natsios, Republican former USAID administrator, dismisses Trump and Musk’s allegations against the agency, calling it “the most accountable aid agency in the world.”
Musk is firing people who operate the Veterans Crisis Line. One of the most substantial and successful tools to fight veteran suicide today. They literally did a 2014 documentary about it that won an Oscar. Can someone point me to the outrage from the MAGA “we love the troops” crowd?
Nope…crickets. It’s always been a lie.
