@JoyAnnReid If MLK were alive today, he would be disappointed that we as a nation are still battling the three major evils—the evil of racism, the evil of poverty, and the evil of war.

This was a devastating, targeted act of political violence against two elected officials. To equate a peaceful protest and the Governor’s exercise of First Amendment rights with such violence is outrageous, disgusting, and unbecoming of a member of Congress.

Leaked audio of JD Vance in a jealous rant… Let’s just say JD Vance is no fan of Elon Musk and thinks he makes him look bad. But the truth is—Trump and Vance don’t need Elon to make them look bad.

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. 🧵

Since @elonmusk @DOGE haven't found the receipts they promised us on Friday, reupping this from earlier: One of the guys Trump fired on day four, Larry Turner, found $191B in improper COVID payments, much of it fraud, and was chasing $135B more when he was fired. Those are

When DOGE launched a website earlier this week, it promised to post “receipts” of its work “no later than Valentine’s Day 💘.” Valentine’s Day came and went. But the receipts never materialized. Now DOGE has amended its deadline: “Receipts coming over the weekend!”

Elon Musk's DOGE website promised "receipts" for the savings DOGE has secured "no later than Valentine's Day." The Saturday after Valentine's Day, there was a new message: "Receipts coming over the weekend!" The weekend is over. Still no receipts.

Hey! @elonmusk your doge minions just fired me and my colleagues at CMMI. We were working on improving maternal health outcomes AT LOWER COSTS so that less pregnant women would die in this county. I thought that would fit nicely into your agenda?

NEW: Documents DOGE posted to social media included potentially sensitive info including tax ID numbers of two private companies. DOGE edited its post and published redacted versions of the docs, but the originals are still visible in the edit history. https://t.co/aM8W0ivZ0o

Despite DOGE’s attempt to redact the information, it is still readily visible in the post on X.

The documents shared by DOGE below are cropped and redacted to block out tax ID numbers, the name of a contractor and other presumably sensitive info. The fully unreacted pages were viewed two million times earlier today (and can still be found in the edit history of the post.)
