DOGE and Trump laid off 850 NOAA personnel, gave them early buyouts, and will pay their pensions. Then they realized their mistake and hiring 450 new employees that have to be trained in the middle of hurricane season. I thought the "E" in DOGE stood for efficiency.

Maybe Trump meant the gasoline price per liter, not gallon. If the price fell to $1.98/gallon the US oil producers and/or refiners would most likely be losing money and the industry would start shutting down marginal production.

If the price of oil collapses, US production will suffer. Lots of great paying jobs in rural areas are at stake.

He has signed the Alien Enemies Act. He is on the path to declare martial law, stop further elections, and try to stay in power. Personally, IF his goal is to declare martial law, then I think it’s time the American people give him a reason. Trump and his admin should go to sleep worried every day.

A consideration for MAGA. Trump was President in 2020 but lost the election because the Democrats "rigged" the election. In 2024, Biden was President but the Democrats couldn't "rig" the election for Harris. I'd like to see an explanation.

In 2020 they used the Big Lie (100s of misleading claims) of "voter fraud" to try to overturn an election. In 2024 they're using similar tactics to create/amplify misleading claims of "government waste and fraud" to justify dismantling huge sections of the U.S. government.
