1. Saw that the other day:

DOGE: Death Overcomes Gigantic Egos

2. Please don't slow the cuts

and take these little moments of victory away from me, knowing the likes of soft-handed desk mammal Chuck Grassley is all surprised and upset his welfare queen farmer constituents are big mad at him for losing all their free money funding for being white and loyal to trump all at the same time.

3. These Republicans

These Republicans in Congress need to wake up and act soon, otherwise the Federal Government will be wrecked and the power of Congress nullified. Trump and Musk are not going to stop unless they are forced to by the Courts and by Congress. The blatantly illegal and unconstitutional cuts have to be stopped, and only Congress has the power to do it. I realize that most Republicans are craven cowards, but this decimation of the government is going to hit their constituents hard. They should wake up soon and work with Dems before it gets worse. And unless Musk and Trump are stopped, it is going to get much worse.

4. Exactly.

It's crossed my mind that TFG chose to nominate the most objectionable and unqualified individuals to lead every department to test the "loyalty" of Republican senators. That's all I can think of. And in such a short time it's already gotten unimaginably worse.

5. they have been bought and paid for. And will do as they are told. Sickening, spineless, "Craven cowards."

[calimary]

6. Just another nightmare brought to you by trump.

And thoughtfully helped along by the Republican party.

STILL think there’s no difference between those spineless bastards and the Democrats?

[Skittles]

7. once again, I thought they would only hurt brown folk!
