Gov. Wes Moore Calls Out Trump’s Weakness, Chaos, and Attacks on Veterans

 


The nation sent PATRIOTS to combat zones where they were exposed to TOXIC CHEMICALS, BURN PITS, EXPLOSIVE DEVICES....some suffered disabling injuries...others suffered injuries that would not manifest for many years....

As we know, President Biden's son developed BRAIN CANCER as a consequence of his service. 

Senator Tammy Duckworth suffered catastrophic injuries. 

Recently in a VA Hospital, we met someone we had known years ago who has metastatic cancer from exposure in VIETNAM. 

An acquaintance has suffered from exposure to AGENT ORANGE & has 2 sons impaired as a consequence. 

A friend has a profound hearing loss from exploding ordinance without ear protection, as well as other health issues. 

Some are in wheelchairs. Some live with constant pain. This is our obligation to care for them! 

Because their 'conditions' or 'illnesses' are specific to their service exposure, they need specialized care at a facility that has done the research to care for those issues. 

NO CIVILIAN FACILITY CAN CARE FOR VETERANS AS WELL BECAUSE THEY LACK THE EXPERIENCE! 

In order to care for these injuries, the VA has conducted a great deal of research that, I understand recently became inaccessible for unknown reasons.

Thank you Gov. Moore for explaining MARYLAND's efficiency! 
MUSKRAT is slashing funding & firing people without any comprehension. 
Slashing NATIONAL PARKS? 
Who was the DIM WIT who posted FEDERAL BUILDINGS for SALE? 
How BRAIN DEAD do you have to be to eliminate THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE? 
It allows for REAL PEOPLE to prepare for their homes & families. Do they have to evacuate? Board up windows? Do they have enough food? 
Slashing the FORESTRY that was removing FUEL to prevent the next wildfire? 
Never mind the BRAIN DEAD who fired NUCLEAR WORKERS. 
Firing scientists tracking BIRD FLU, MEASLES or the foreign workers monitoring EBOLA? 
MUSKRAT continues to prove his incompetence & stupidity!

Trump administration must release part of $2 billion in frozen foreign aid

 

Friday, March 7


The Trump administration must release part of the $2 billion in frozen foreign aid, judge rules


  • A D.C. federal judge ordered President Donald Trump’s administration to release part of the $2 billion in frozen foreign aid funding by Monday. The funds will be paid to the nonprofits and aid organizations involved in the lawsuit.


A federal judge won’t restrict DOGE access to Treasury data


  • A federal judge declined to block the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from accessing Treasury Department data in a lawsuit from advocacy and union groups.


  • However, DOGE's access to Treasury data is restricted by a court order in a separate lawsuit from Democratic attorneys general.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSOR

Right-wing group drops Pennsylvania as defendant in legal effort to purge voters


  • Litigation will continue in the lawsuit filed by the right-wing 1789 Foundation aiming to remove more than 277,000 voters from Pennsylvania's rolls after the plaintiffs dropped the state as a defendant.


  • Secretary of the Commonwealth Al Schmidt and pro-voting groups AFT Pennsylvania and the Pennsylvania Alliance for Retired Americans remain in the case to defend the voter rolls.


Washington Supreme Court upholds the state’s ballot signature verification system


  • The state’s highest court ruled that the state’s ballot signature verification system — the process by which election officials compare a voter’s signature on a mail-in ballot envelope to the one that’s on file with election officials — doesn’t violate Washington’s constitution.


  • The pro-voting groups who filed the original lawsuit in 2022 alleged that the signature-matching process “is an inherently fraught endeavor” that could lead to voter disenfranchisement.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSOR

The so called Department of Government Efficiency is composed of unvetted outsiders who have forced their way into the government’s most protected systems without care or consideration for the safeguards created by Congress to keep our data safe. Join the ACLU in calling on Congress to step up and check the president’s violations of our rights.

A court hearing on Monday could  determine the fate of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau


  • A federal judge in Washington, D.C. will hold a hearing Monday in a lawsuit from the National Treasury Employees Union that is seeking to prevent the shutdown of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the nation's financial watchdog agency.


Don’t let the shock and awe distract you from the importance of state courts

  • “As Trump attempts to remake the federal government into an instrument of destruction, we must both hold the line on our federal courts and also turn to state courts as a critical defense for our civil rights, health and safety,” Democracy Docket Contributor Keith Thirion wrote.

Trump and Musk want to cut 80,000 jobs at the VA

 

Tammy Duckworth



Earlier this week, the AP reported that the Trump Administration is planning to cut more than 80,000 jobs at the VA.

This is a slap in the face to all who served, and it will make it harder for Veterans to get the care they’ve earned.

Every single area of the VA is in danger from cuts like these. It is a complete betrayal of our Veterans.

Trump and Musk want to gut the VA, then privatize it so they can cut taxes for their billionaire friends. And it’s our heroes that will pay the price.

I will ALWAYS advocate for our Veterans and servicemembers. But I need your help to demonstrate to Trump, Musk and everyone watching that we will not tolerate our heroes being treated this way.

If you can afford it, will you please chip in $5 today to help power this important work?

Thank you,
Tammy

Breaking: Musk's Deep Financial Ties to Top OPM Feds Revealed

 

Musk’s Deep Financial Ties to Top Feds Revealed

Several senior Office of Personnel Management (OPM) political appointees have deeper ties to Elon Musk’s businesses than previously known, according to financial disclosure records obtained by the Project On Government Oversight (POGO). The records show that three OPM officials have significant ties to Musk’s businesses, either holding large financial stakes in his companies or on a leave of absence from one of his enterprises. POGO is publicly reporting those details for the first time.

OPM provided the records to POGO on Thursday night in response to a formal request. The agency told POGO in an email that the officials’ financial disclosures “may be subject to changes” because they are still under review. OPM and the individuals named in this story did not respond to requests for comment.

An exclusive cartoon from Michael de Adder


Hi Meidas Mighty,

Thank you for the kind words on my first cartoon I shared on Meidas+ earlier this week.

This new piece highlights Donald Trump’s subservience to Vladimir Putin.
