Market being up after last night's speech makes me feel like most "smart" people don't see the danger ahead.

Anyone that appreciates, makes their living by or just wants new technology should be pissed with this administration.
We have such a head start in technology and we are going to squander it.

The Trump administration’s cuts to university research grants will make America sicker and poorer in the long run, David Deming writes. DOGE should stop "confusing efficiency with ill-conceived budget cuts."

I want all companies who "donated" to Trump's inauguration to answer on the record their opinions on concentration camps. If they support these "deportation camps" then they need to be held liable for how this turns out....

First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.

Pete Hegseth is the most incompetent of all Trump’s Cabinet picks. He's an alcoholic serial abuser who is unqualified for the job, and he will make our nation less safe. This was a completely reckless confirmation.

If insurance companies add value, great compete. Otherwise move to a public option with additional insurance optional.
The facts are, the ACA saved millions with pre-existing conditions and set standards for care.
But now, more than a decade later, with what we now know, it’s time to take the insurance companies out of the mix.
The subsidies they get are enormous. We don’t need them as middlemen.

A Mole Infiltrated the Highest Ranks of American Militias. This Is What He Found.
Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias. He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends....

Only reinforces his lack of qualifications for the job
Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.

2024 BYD Seal Review: If You Could Buy One, You'd Probably Want To
BYD has made a car that’s good to drive, doesn’t cost the earth, looks great, and is a truly viable alternative to what’s out there.

Sad but true - nuisances and getting into the details is hard!
The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

If you make under $94k, your tax bill would go up under Trump's tax and tariff plans.
The middle 20% of Americans would see an average tax hike of $1,530 in 2026 alone.
The richest 5% would get a tax break.
And the whole thing would cost America $7.5 trillion.
Unacceptable.

You can't crusade to cut government spending and then turn around and give trillions of dollars in tax cuts to the wealthy and corporations.
That's a great way to crash the economy.
Just ask Liz Truss.
