I feel like this is what we’ve been hearing in DC recently #whatsthatsound
The booms rattle windows, frighten pets, and have raised concerns about threats to the structural integrity of private homes.
Falcon 9 sonic booms can feel more like seismic waves
Trajectories, wind shear, temperature gradients, topography, and weather can affect how a sonic boom spreads.

ICE Says It Will Stop 'Ideas' From Crossing The Border Illegally
In a since-deleted social media post, the immigration enforcement agency declared itself the border thought police in a country that is supposed to believe in freedom of speech and thought.

Agreed. All but one Dem in the house voted against the CR, and all but these 10 in the Senate.
Dems need restructuring and reform. @schumer.senate.gov needs to step down as minority leader.

Blaming "the Dems" for what MAGA DOGE is doing, is just wrong! Blame:
•Schumer,
•Durbin,
•Cortez Masto,
•Fetterman, •Gillibrand,
•Hassan,
•Peters,
•Schatz,
•Shaheen
•And EVERY REPUBLICAN but Sen. Rand Paul.
Spare me the Dem rage.

I think part of the cognitive dissonance some people are having in accepting what is happening is that we're used to seeing films and media about what happens to people after the coup has already taken place, not as it's happening.
As DOGE chaos spreads, a portion of the GSA office has been reportedly closed off except to people on an "access list." Security is keeping people away. More on that and other signs of Elon Musk's late-night takeover of the federal government: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Elon Musk's midnight takeover
The world's richest man and his allies are "avoiding office hours at all costs" as they take a wrecking ball to the US government.

How long will that take? Months? Years?
When most people see someone robbing a bank they call the cops. You are not up for this moment. Where is the urgency? GO OVER THERE AND DEMAND ENTRANCE. Lock yourself to the doors. Throw a fucking FIT.

If the Treasury Secretary does not remove DOGE’s access to the Treasury payment systems at once:
Congress must immediately act.
That is why Rep. Jeffries and I will work together on legislation to stop unlawful meddling in the Treasury Department’s payment systems.

“MAGA intellectual” is the definition of an oxymoron.
This would be like if Obama had named, say, Michael Parenti to a top position at the State Department.
