US, pay attention
It is no longer safe for Canadians (or people of any nationality) to enter the United States.

Border guards are seizing phones, and going through your emails looking for messages saying you don’t like Trump.

They will turn you away, or send you to a “facility.”

The people Attorney General Bondi is calling “terrorists” have had no trial and no chance to defend themselves. We do not know who they are. Ignoring the Constitution does not make us safe. It puts us all in peril.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help

Hegseth has ordered the Pentagon to STOP offensive cyber operations against Russia. This is insane. Russia is actively targeting the U.S., and the ability to conduct offensive operations (which was authorized by Trump in 2018!*) was at least one deterrent. Not anymore www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/u...
Hegseth Orders Pentagon to Stop Offensive Cyberoperations Against Russia
The defense secretary’s instructions, which were given before President Trump’s blowup with the Ukrainian president, are apparently part of an effort to draw Russia into talks on the war.

Elon fucking Musk does NOT appropriate federal funds.
That is the job of CONGRESS.
Not some foreign born private citizen jumping bean exploding penis rocket car melting nepo-baby conspiracy theorist womanizer who exchanges horses for handjobs.

Congress needs to stand the fuck up. All of them!!!

Having ordinary civil servants turn against one another is a critical aspect of the authoritarian project.

Again, the gateway is racism.
These emails, sent across agencies, compel all federal employees to snitch on any colleague whose work might have some vague DEIA inflection. Those who refuse to snitch will be disciplined.

Seems designed to put all workers who aren’t white men under a cloud of suspicion. Truly vile stuff.
The acting director of the Office of Personnel Management (the feds' H.R. department) is telling federal employees to rat out their DEIA (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility) colleagues by emailing "DEIAtruth@opm.gov."

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

Jean-Marie Le Pen, the French far right leader, died today.

If you wonder how many French people feel about that, these are the scenes of celebration on the streets of Paris this evening.

One sign reads “The dirty racist is dead”.
