“To that end, I have created the brand new Department of Government Efficiency, DOGE, perhaps you’ve heard of it, which is headed by Elon Musk, who is in the gallery tonight,” he added.
Musk’s role may be news to a federal judge hearing cases regarding the mass firings of government workers who demanded to know who was in charge of DOGE and were told that person was Amy Gleason, who previously worked at the U.S. Digital Service.
Trump proceeded to reel off a list of "appalling waste” Musk and his team had identified, though none of that could be immediately verified and past claims of uncovering fraud have turned out to be overstated.
Congressman Al Green’s method of protest is compelling without a doubt…but these signs I don’t think are effective.

They look polite and soft.
If you’re going to hold up a sign, make it big and bold — or do what Al Green did.
People have been saying it looks like they’re at an auction.

Swalwell: The stock market is crashing, and prices are rising. This guy has gone to the Super Bowl, the Daytona 500, and a UFC fight. He should go to the fucking supermarket and see what people are spending to feed themselves

Halfway through the speech, Rep. Jasmine Crockett, Rep. Maxwell Frost and others walked out and removed their jackets—revealing t-shirts that read: “RESIST,” and “NO KINGS LIVE HERE.”

Here in WNC we are still in recovery mode, despite being forgotten and overshadowed by LA fires, Trump/Republicans and high prices. We have over 150 wildfires and last night extreme high winds. We hunkered down.
Love ya'll.
