DOGE Fall Girl

Wednesday, February 26th, 2025

Today, the VA has laid off another 1400 workers and over 6,000 veterans have been laid off government wide; a federal judge has given the Trump administration 36 hours to make foreign aid contract payments; the Trump regime has announced that the administration and not the WHCA will decide what media outlets are in the press pool; a federal judge has blocked Trump’s pause of the refugee admissions program, DOGE is working on software that automates the firing of federal employees; a White House official says that someone named Amy Gleason is the acting DOGE administrator; the prosecutor in Coeur d'Alene has dropped the charges against Teresa Borrenpohl in the interest of justice; DOGE staffers resign en masse to protest Elon Musk; DOGE quietly deletes five of its receipts from its website; the controversy surrounding Cory Mills becomes even more serious; and Allison and Dana deliver your Good News.
