The truth here is so ever relevant, is so simple and profound. I think I might pop it into my next book. Sharing yet again:

Someone is getting rich from war. No one is getting rich making our lives better.
No money for Medicaid or SNAP or museums or schools or sidewalks or gun violence prevention or art or libraries.

Always money for war.

This is not my America
Loyalty tests have officially arrived in the federal hiring process. The Trump administration just unveiled a so-called “Merit Hiring Plan”, which includes a quiz asking job applicants to name their favorite Trump policy or executive order.

Gotta meet him with some resistance. 😉 Despite RFK Jr.’s claims, the CDC did not remove COVID vaccines from the childhood immunization schedule.

The Supreme Court today allowed Trump to temporarily remove the leaders of two independent agencies, setting up a direct challenge to the legal principle that limits a president’s power to fire officials at will.

This is what an authoritarian regime would do. Hidden deep in Trump’s 1,100-page bill that passed the House today is a provision that would block federal courts from enforcing contempt charges against government officials who violate court orders.

The F.B.I. is disbanding a unit that investigates members of Congress and federal employee fraud just as the Trump administration moves to sideline divisions handling public corruption.

Elon Musk’s regulatory troubles? Vanishing fast. Since Trump returned to the White House, federal agencies that once scrutinized Musk’s empire are being gutted or redirected. At the USDA, Trump fired the official investigating Neuralink.

So many videos are circulating of ICE agents acting with cruelty and aggression. Behavior that eerily mirrors the “domestic terrorism” they claim to oppose. No one is forcing them to act this way; it’s a choice.

It was only ever about collecting our data, to be used against us
Just getting to this @nytimes.com article about what a jawdropping bullshit factory, failure and fraud DOGE is.

Musk is an historic disgrace, and what they've done is an incredible national scandal. Gift link. READ IT.

DOGE Is Far Short of Its Goal, and Still Overstating Its Progress (Gift Article)
Elon Musk now says his group will produce only 15 percent of the savings it promised. But even that estimate is inflated with errors and guesswork.

WT?
Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie.

America, people. Freedom and stuff.

Trump claims he didn’t sign the proclamation used to deport migrants under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 — but his signature is right there in the Federal Register. So… who is signing these things? And is that even legal? And did he sign any of these executive orders either?
