WTAF? 🤬 Now, Elon Musk is going to advise the Pentagon on the future of war? Do you remember what an epic failure the billionaire’s DOGE was which didn’t save a cent but instead, dismantled life saving agencies, fired thousands of Americans, stole our personal data, all while getting himself millions in federal contracts? It should be concerning to all Americans that he is back on good terms with Trump, right before the midterm election.
BREAKING WaPo:
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson just slammed the Supreme Court's use of its "emergency docket" — suggesting the court has misused the process in allowing the Trump admin to move forward with a host of controversial policies while challenges play out in lower court. https://t.co/Kb7ZsQQXEF
SCOTUS was wrong to allow Trump to overhaul a federal system to initiate voter registration purges, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wrote in her dissent.
Jackson said the court’s decision could potentially disenfranchise legitimate voters, including naturalized citizens: https://t.co/kjbNUHIID2
The Cornell University r@pist. These men drugged a young woman and took turns r@ping her. In a group chat, they took a picture of her and invited others to rape her. Only two of them were expelled the others had to write an essay. You should be outraged by the outcome. This young woman will forever be changed by what happened to her and these young men get a slap on the hand.
🚨 A federal judge just threatened AG Todd Blanche with civil contempt for withholding handwritten FBI interview notes from the Epstein files. Stop the coverup this Saturday morning. Demand Congress force the unredacted release now: https://t.co/eUYf2TdHc2
Russ Vought is Donald Trump's budget director and the most dangerous person you've never heard of. He helped write Project 2025, and he has spent years arguing that a president should be free to ignore spending laws he doesn't like.
Now he's doing exactly that.
Last night, with no vote and no debate, Trump canceled nearly $1 billion that Congress passed and he had previously signed into law.
The trick is called a "pocket rescission."
The White House sits on money for months, then sends Congress a cancellation request so late in the fiscal year that the funds simply expire on September 30.
Last year they used the same move to wipe out $4.9 billion.
I sit on the House Appropriations Committee. Under the Constitution, Congress decides how taxpayer dollars are spent. Republicans and Democrats negotiated these bills in good faith.
If a president can erase any spending law by running out the clock, the power of the purse means nothing.
I'll keep fighting to restore these funds and close this loophole for good. Congress writes the budget, and it's time more of my Republican colleagues stood up and said so.

Trump is clearly demented and has fallen back on what he’s good at- promoting himself and labeling everything in his path with his name. And like a dog leaving a golden thread
He’s also still a great con man -lying about the war, isn’t not a war just a military conflict.
BREAKING: House Republicans are canceling the final two weeks of September and plan to stop voting after September 14, leaving Washington until after the midterms.
The timing? Thomas Massie’s bipartisan push to force action on millions of unreleased Epstein files is gaining signatures.
They were elected to govern, not run from accountability.
Stay in Washington. Release the files.
🚨BREAKING: DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said Tuesday that ICE agents could enter polling places to make arrests this November, raising fresh concerns about the Trump administration contemplating actions that federal law has long prohibited. https://t.co/0XAevTDyHO
BREAKING: The US Senate could pass a Bill that will Reduce Elon Musk's Election spending to Just $5,000
This will ban billionaires from single-handedly buying Elections.
This is Maj. Alex Klinner. He was killed March 12 during Operation Epic Fury. His widow said Sunday death benefits aren’t being provided as the war wasn't formally declared. MAGA is too weak to actually declare war & is leaving dead soldiers’ families holding the bag. Pathetic.
In a 5-4 decision, the Court’s conservative majority can’t find the spine to tell Trump no about the ballroom. Chief Justice Roberts is joined by the 3 liberal Justices in dissent, calling what Trump is doing “likely unlawful.”
This is a must-read piece. Russ Vought, the most destructive budget director of all time, has spent the last 18 months undermining Congress and trying to burn down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
When courts wouldn’t let him destroy the CFBP, he turned it into a lapdog for those who would harm consumers.
Vought and Trump couldn’t care less about the average consumer getting scammed or defrauded.

A whistleblower just disclosed that USPS is secretly enacting Trump's order to restrict mail-in ballots:
"If even one bar code on one single ballot in a bulk-mailing of 10,000 ballots fails to properly scan during the verification process, the entire batch is rejected and sent back to the state - effectively stopping the ballots from being mailed to voters."
