“Going forward, the department will be led by a board mostly appointed by the Republican governor. The new law, which passed with the support of police unions, also requires St. Louis to commit 25 percent of its budget to policing by 2028.”
NEW at Bolts: Missouri officials have seized control of St. Louis Police, returning the city to a Civil War-era arrangement.
This adds to a series of moves by the state meant to shutter local reforms.

Big week for Trump’s agenda. Republicans are expecting a decision from the Senate parliamentarian on whether they can use a new budgeting method to score the cost of making Trump’s tax cuts permanent at $0. It’s key to what they can pass in the big bill. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

The parliamentarian may rule next week whether Republicans can use a novel accounting method to make Trump tax cuts permanent. Democrats call the idea "magic math."

A really powerful WWII era "don't be a sucker" piece, that explains how authoritarians have to separate and destroy groups of people so they can take power. I don't usually watch anything this long (22 min) but couldn't stop watching once I started this.
Please watch and rewatch this movie, in the U.S. Archives from the @usarmy.bsky.social #DontBeASucker a reminder of how the Nazis conned their country into becoming the cause of mass murder and all the other horrors that Nazis unleash. The lessons are true for the USA🇺🇸 , in 2025 youtu.be/vGAqYNFQdZ4
