Serious question: Instead of dismantling SS as Trump/Musk and the billionaire cabal want to do, why not position it as the framework for UBI in our post-AGI economy? Like it or not, our workforce will become a no-workforce with this decade.

Republicans are so accustomed to whining from the minority that when they’re actually in the majority and still can’t manage to pass a bill, their automatic reflex is to blame the Democrats.

Republicans wanted the majority. They got it. Learn how to fucking govern.

Seems reasonable.
Former FBI AD for Counterintelligence says that if Trump doesn't want the bureau to vet his ridiculous Cabinet picks, then President Biden should go ahead and order the investigations anyways.

This is actually an ingenious idea!

Opinion | Biden should order background checks of Trump’s Cabinet picks
The FBI has conducted background investigations of White House nominees since at least the tenure of President Dwight Eisenhower’s time in office.

Whelp, we’re about to see what America has the stomach for. I don’t think it’s for this
At 4:03 AM Trump posts that he is prepared to use the military to round up migrants in a mass deportation effort after Mike Johnson, Tony Gonzales & other Republicans spent the weekend saying this was not the case.

Exactly. I’d actually go further and say he wants to purge the military until it is loyal only to him.
If this MSNBC story about courts-martial is confirmed, I'm begging people - especially writers and reporters - do not fall for the Trump line that this is about Afghanistan. This is about Trump seeking revenge on the people who woudn't him do things like shoot American protesters.

The reason we know about RFK Jr’s brain worm is that he mentioned it during a divorce deposition, to argue that he was cognitively impaired and therefore had limited earning potential.
Now he’s up for a cabinet post

That would explain why he's weirdly confident in his ability to get this clown car of a cabinet approved.
Is the recess appointments gambit the "little secret" between Trump and Speaker Johnson?
