Baking and resisting the fascist takeover of America.
It would be a shame if the protesters began making their signs out of quarter-inch-thick plywood to stop rubber bullets, forming a tight shield wall to prevent police from singling out and mobbing individual protesters.

I think I agree with Jamelle.
i personally do not think the administration is actually prepared for what happens if they are facing mass protests in every major city in the country

I cannot tell you how bad this is. We've handed over the health of all Americans to this deranged zealot and his flunkies and mini-Mes. This is going to get people sick, some will die. Nothing good will come of this.

This is irresponsible coverage from Jonathan Swan, Maggie Haberman, Nicholas Nehamas, Theodore Schleifer and David A. Fahrenthold. @larryglickman.bsky.social unpacks it here, but this is repulsive work by this @NYTimes team
Poor guy. The strain of cruelly destroying dozens of important, life-saving agencies/programs that make our society healthier, smarter, and more resilient, with no clear legal authorization, no transparency, no attempt to understand what agencies do, and no justification must be a lot to bear.

Who is DOGE? In fact, there are two DOGEs: the repurposed US Digital Service, now known as the US DOGE Service, and a temporary organization within it called, naturally, the US DOGE Service Temporary Organization, which is tasked with carrying out the DOGE agenda.

Confused? Let us break it down:
‘Who Is Doge?’ Has Become a Metaphysical Question
The acting head of the General Services Administration says it has no DOGE team. It merely lists at least a half-dozen DOGE affiliates on payroll and has a section of its building for DOGE use only.

And since January, people with ties to Elon Musk have popped up all over the federal government, even if they’re not listed DOGE team members.

All of this means that the line between who is working for DOGE and who is *doing* DOGE is blurry at best. It’s Schrödinger’s DOGE.
