The nominations reinforce how completely the Trump WH will consolidate policy-making, and the way they have been announced (with key sr staff and transition leadership in the dark) reinforces how completely forked that process will be. Dangerous dingdongs, but still dingdongs
“Paralysis through chaos”
A Joseph Stalin card trick where he intentionally created a chaotic environment within his government and society. This strategy kept people uncertain and dependent on his authority, limiting opposition and consolidating his control.

Cat litter isn’t on the teacher’s Amazon supply list—because schools aren’t putting litter boxes in classrooms.
Texas is picking a fight with fiction while teachers are fighting for pencils.

Greg Abbott is pushing the “FURRIES Act” claiming schools are giving litter boxes to students who act like cats.
But when I asked the bill author, he couldn’t name one school providing litter boxes to kids.
This is all part of Abbott’s smear campaign against our public schools.

Trump promised we’d all be rich in March.
It’s April now — his tariffs are canceling Christmas and jacking up prices on half the internet.
Congrats to the 1%—the rest of us are just trying to afford wrapping paper.

Tariffs are basically taxes we pay at the register. I’m honestly surprised this administration pulled off such a huge tax hike without congressional approval.
At this pace, someone better launch a bartering app—we might be trading socks for groceries by summer.

Trump circumvented Congress on tariffs by declaring a Fentanyl emergency. A handful of Republicans in Congress can stop the tariffs by joining with Democrats. Call your electeds and tell them.

The Trump administration placed a 10% tariff on uninhabited—Heard and McDonald Islands—which have zero exports to the U.S. and are home to seals, penguins, and a bunch of cold rocks.

Denying anyone the right to due process in America is unconstitutional.
If you’ve rationalized your silence or support for any of it because it’s happening to those you disagree with, give it a minute…

Wait… so the Trump admin, with Elon’s help, just yoinked $80 million in FEMA funds straight from NYC’s accounts? I wonder how they hacked the system?
Pretty sure that’s called theft when regular people do it.

Hey “price of eggs” Trump voters, your rotting gourd god said that prices are going to go up for a “little while” thanks to his tariffs, and that it will cause some “pain”, but that it’s ok, because you “understand.”
