Sounds like Lisa Murkowski is voting NO on Matt Gaetz.

Here’s a key point about our mission at DOGE: eliminating bureaucratic regulations isn’t a mere policy preference. It’s a legal mandate from the U.S. Supreme Court:

• West Virginia v. EPA (2022) held that agencies cannot decide major questions of economic or political significance without "clear congressional authorization." This applies to thousands of rules that never passed Congress.

• In Loper Bright v. Raimondo (2024), the Court ended Chevron deference, which means agencies can't foist their own interpretations of the law onto the American people. Over 18,000 federal cases cited the Chevron doctrine, often to uphold regulations, many of which are now null & void.

• In SEC v. Jarkesy (2024), SCOTUS restricted the use of "administrative law judges" by agencies. The same agency that wrote the rules shouldn't be able to prosecute citizens in “courts” that it controls.

• In Corner Post v. Board of Governors (2024), the Court held that new businesses can challenge old regulations, greatly expanding the statute of limitations & opening many more rules up for scrutiny. So we shouldn't just look at rules passed in the last 4 years, but over the past 4 decades (or more).

DOGE is ready help the U.S. government conform to the U.S. Constitution once again.

It is critically important to defund + investigate the NGOs who facilitated the migrant crisis with billions of federal taxpayer dollars.

Corrupt federal officials have quite literally been the architects of an incentive structure in which taxpayers pay them billions of dollars to destroy our nation.

This is why Democrats attempted to hide a $1.4 BILLION allocation just for NGOs in their disastrous border bill. That allocation was set to be disbursed by FEMA to the NGOs if certain metrics were hit such as detention beds being filled.

In other words, all the NGOs had to do to unlock another $1.4 billion is get more people to come here illegally.

Officials such as Mayorkas have been using these organizations such as HAIS for far too long to launder money and rip the fabric of America.

Defund and investigate every last NGO who received any federal funding above $10 million during the Biden-Harris Administration. A lot of people have made a lot of money off of this crisis and it’s time for transparency.

Most of these NGOs facilitating the migrant crisis have no business being called NGOs when their primary source of funding is from the government while also doing operations on behalf of the government!

The Babylon Bee Is Graciously Offering To Hire Any Laid-Off Employee From Fake News Rival CNN

U.S. — In one of the most truly magnanimous gestures in all of human history, the Babylon Bee is officially offering to hire all the employees being laid off by Fake News rival CNN.

"We're not here to gloat. We're here to help," said Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon. "Look, the Fake News industry is fiercely competitive, and CNN has incredible talent. We may be rivals, but at the end of the day, we're human beings – human beings who love making up the news."

CNN announced yesterday that due to massive declines in viewership, several top anchors would soon be let go along with a large number of support staff. "We knew right away that we had to step in to help," said Babylon Bee Editor-In-Chief Kyle Mann. "CNN was such an inspiration to the Bee when we first started. They've been a leading voice in the Fake News sector for decades now. We are proud to be in a position now to help these struggling satire writers get back on their feet."

Pundits across the nation hailed the Bee's offer as "the nicest thing anyone has ever done" and "probably good enough for sainthood." Sources within CNN say several notable anchors are considering making the jump to the Bee as soon as the layoffs are official, including a doughy, spud-shaped guy whose name rhymes with "Frian."

At publishing time, Dillon had also kindly responded to Comcast's offer to sell MSNBC, offering a generous sum of $50 and some gum he found in his pocket.
