Imagine for a moment what it would be like to have all the money in the world. Being able to buy anything you want, eat what you want, spend your time how you'd like, travel wherever you'd like to go, and live anywhere on earth. Think of what it must be like to spend millions of dollars a day and not even think about it. Money you'll never spend and that can't be taken with you when you dìe.

Now consider how many ways in which the world's richest man could make people's lives better. Instead of buying another yacht, mansion, or rocket, he could build housing for families, hospitals for the sick, or nursing homes for the elderly. He wouldn't even feel it. If he really cared in the slightest and made the smallest amount of effort, he could do amazing things in this country.

But instead, he spends his weekend figuring out ways to mock the world's most vulnerable people while deciding whether or not they deserve food and healthcare.

This is no longer about left vs. right, Democrats vs. Republicans or liberals vs. conservatives. This is the ultra rich vs. everyone else, cruel vs. humane, and good vs. evil. This isn't funny and it isn't ok. The world deserves better ❤🤍💙

At the press conference outside of USAID headquarters, Senator Brian Schatz:

"If you want to change an agency, introduce a bill and pass a law. You cannot wave away an agency that you don't like or that you disagree with by executive order, or by literally storming into the building and taking over the servers. That is not how the American system of government works."

Nailed it!

Wow. This is how news becomes propaganda. It’s begun. Pay attention.

Read/copy/repost if you can
From an anonymous OPM employee on Reddit. submitted 3 hours ago by Throwaway918284: "I'm a current employee at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). This is a throwaway account for obvious reasons. I’m posting this because people need to know what’s going on at OPM. I’ve been an OPM employee for nearly a decade and a Federal Employee for almost 20 years. I’ve never witnessed anything even remotely close to what’s happening right now. In short, there's a hostile takeover of the federal civil service.
Let me say this in no uncertain terms — OPM has been compromised and taken over. The very backbone of American Government, the HR of all HR in the U.S. Government has been taken over by outside politicals. In just five days, they managed to push aside dozens of non-political, career civil servants who were there specifically to prevent the civil service from becoming the President's henchmen.
The current Acting Director, Charles (Chuck) Ezell is a low-level branch chief. He's the friendliest “yes man” you'll ever meet. He never says no. It’s clear they pushed aside all the high-level non political civil servants who refused to do Donald Trump's bidding, until they found Chuck.
Under his name, they’ve sent numerous requests to all the agencies to collect information on gov't employees that they see as a threat to their agenda. Instructions say to send these lists to Amanda Scales. But Amanda is not actually an OPM employee, she works for Elon Musk. She wasn’t even properly cleared by OPM Personnel Security.
Our CIO, Melvin Brown, (also a non political career public servant) was pushed aside just one week into his tenure because he refused to setup email lists to send out direct communications to all career civil servants. Such communications are normally left up to each agency.
Instead, an on-prem (on-site) email server was setup. Someone literally walked into our building and plugged in an email server to our network to make it appear that emails were coming from OPM. It's been the one sending those various “test” message you've all seen. We think they're building a massive email list of all federal employees to generate mass RIF notices down the road.
The non-political civil servants here at OPM are watching helplessly as our government is being systematically dismantled bit by bit. Even the IGs are being fired to prevent them from investigating the numerous whistleblower complaints we've filed.
Please share this and tell the world that OPM is not the bad guy. We're just as helpless to stop this as the rest of our fellow public servants. Hopefully someone out there can help us, but it’s looking pretty grim."

It is a lesson worth learning

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

Board Certified Surgeon in Austin, Texas is whistleblower on US Health Insurance Companies

She was just PULLED OUT OF SURGERY
while her patient was asleep and forced to speak with UnitedHealthcare who tries to cancel patients inpatient stay after surgery who has CANCER

“It's 2025 and insurance just keeps getting worse”

“I've never had this happen before. But during the second deep, I had a phone call into the operating room saying that UnitedHealthcare wanted me to call them about one of the patients who was having surgery”

“So I scrubbed outta my case and I called UnitedHealthcare and the gentleman said he needed some information about her, wanna know her diagnosis and whether whether her inpatient stay should be justified. — I was like, do you understand that she's asleep right now and she has breast cancer?”

“It's out of control. It insurance is out of control. I have no other words.”

[Leah McElrath @leahmcelrath]

A DOCTOR SPEAKS OUT:

“I want to talk a little bit about UnitedHealthcare and why certain recent events may have happened against their CEO. In my opinion, UnitedHealthcare is the most evil company in the United States right now.”

He then lays out their business practices.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

Republicans seem a lot more concerned to protect women on the Hill from the imaginary problem of being in a stall next to Rep. Sarah McBride, than to acknowledge and protect women from the very real depredations of men like Matt Gaetz, Pete Hegseth, and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

Hey @NancyMace

[Liz Cheney @Liz_Cheney]

Our nation’s democratic system functioned last night and we have a new President-elect.  All Americans are bound, whether we like the outcome or not, to accept the results of our elections. We now have a special responsibility, as citizens of the greatest nation on earth, to do everything we can to support and defend our Constitution, preserve the rule of law, and ensure that our institutions hold over these coming four years. Citizens across this country, our courts, members of the press and those serving in our federal, state and local governments must now be the guardrails of democracy.

In the coming days there's gonna be a lot of opining about what the Harris campaign did wrong, but this election was not an indictment of Kamala Harris. It was an indictment of America.

Sorry kids, you have to do your own bedtime tonight. I have to stay glued to the TV to see if our country picked an insurrectionist psychopath cult leader or an extremely qualified woman.

Michigan voter: I voted for Kamala Harris. I have three daughters. Women's rights is pretty important to them. I'm sorry, I'm getting a little emotional. Their bodies, their choice. I want them to grow up in a world that's welcoming to everybody
