This is coming from the President’s office. This is an outright denial of the Supreme Courts and the ability for the legislative and judicial branches to enforce checks and balances. This silences the press. This is outright disinformation. It’s sick.

The Most Transparent Administration In History has stopped publishing regular official transcripts of speeches and press conferences. If you're in the media you can replace that (there are paid transcript services) but that's a lot of info that used to be easier to get.

Staying informed is so important. Now more than ever. Social media users must keep watch for misinformation, lest they risk falling into the far-right pipeline. This is just one way that misinformation can spread across social media with ease.

2) Wait to see how people react
3) If they don't push back hard enough, carry on
4) If they do push back hard enough, "pause" it

The fall of Twitter should be studied. From being a powerhouse in community building, it’s now morphed into an ugly beast with three AI-generated heads and its minion bots.

Damn shame.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.

Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.
