Trump and Elon's whole march and baiting of government workers will leave illness and a mess that will take years or decades to mend. Nobody should have to go through this.

Lord of Flies, indeed.

Ghislaine Maxwell's attorney has gone public with her offer to "clear" Donald Trump in exchange for a pardon. So if Donald gives her one, that would be an admission that she has information about him that could lead to criminal convictions.

Stupid of the lawyer to say the quiet part out loud.

🚨BREAKING: Puerto Rico has been part of the United States since 1898, and people still act confused that Puerto Ricans are American.

States that joined after Puerto Rico:
• Oklahoma — 1907
• New Mexico — 1912
• Arizona — 1912
• Alaska — 1959
• Hawaii — 1959

Yet somehow this is still news to folks.

Ossoff: We would be naive not to expect dirty tricks. This man tried to steal the presidency when he lost it the first time. The best insurance against dirty tricks is landslide margins of victory.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Bakaj: Intelligence was gathered that captured activity being conducted by someone close to the president. Gabbard was given a heads-up.

She went to Susie Wiles and discussed it.

When she returned to the DNI’s office, she directed that the intelligence not be distributed any further…

Ghislaine Maxwell hopes to get out of jail by engaging in extortion.

I'm beginning to get the impression that Ghislaine Maxwell enjoys criming.

From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social, the press release that *pre-dated* Epstein's death. Speculation abounds, yet it adds more layers to the corruption of the Trump Administration.

Russia’s GDP: ~$2 trillion.
Russia’s offer to the U.S.: $12 trillion.
That’s not a deal. That’s a scam pitch.
And somehow, Trump and Witkoff leaned in.

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.

If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

I see an awful lot of new Follows pretending to be foreigners in need, or especially Ukrainian or Palestinian folks. Doubtless, they are scammers, and thus blocked.

Yet, it occurs to me that a part of this march is to attempt to drain one's empathy? It is a world of psychopathic aims, so perhaps...

Industrial heat is one of the hardest parts of the energy transition.

This sand battery is now delivering fossil-free heat for industry, storing renewable electricity as high-temperature heat and releasing it when needed. Simple idea, big impact.

The President says elections should be nationalized. Isn't that what is done in Russia? GOP preaches "states rights" until things are done they don't like, then the Feds take it over. World's biggest hypocrites.
