Always wondered how the Star Wars Emperor could start with a battle-hardened army and end up with an "entire legion of his best troops" being beaten to death by teddybears with sticks.

Then Hegseth ended up as US Defence Sec. And now yeah that makes sense.

A long but important read.
“There’s too much going on. It’s overwhelming.” If that sounds familiar, this piece is for you. Jay Kuo breaks up Donald's latest power plays into three categories: bad, worse, and worst. It may sound heavy, but understanding them makes it easier to stay informed without feeling buried.

Garrett Graff is a former editor of Politico. Take note, scientists 🧪, he is deeply informed about politics.

American institutions—from the media to Congress—continue to underreact to the unraveling of our democracy. Overseas our media would not hesitate to call what we’re living through a full-blown autocratic coup. Here's my attempt at the story they should write: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-trump...

This is New York Times columnist @jamellebouie.net, one of the most thoughtful and scholarly American writers today, saying that the US Constitution is over.

The Supreme Court has ignored its clear meaning and now Trump and Musk ignore it.

Tonight’s newest EO lays out a plan to fire (RIF) roughly 75% of the federal workforce outright. Any non-essential personnel will be removed from their posts and all new hired must be approved by DOGE team leaders.

THIS IS AN FULL ON ATTACK ON OUR GOVERNMENT.

When you solve for the wrong problem, not only do you not get the solution, you can cause harm. The President wasted water that was being saved for farmers for a PR stunt.

This was harmful, ludicrous, and solved nothing.

THIS IS A NATIONAL EMERGENCY.

This week, Elon Musk and a literal handful of 18 to 24-year olds have illegally taken over the US Treasury Department computers and now have access to all our nation's (both individual and collective) financial data.

Remember how Trump said he "sent the military in and opened up the water flow" in CA? It appears he forced the Army Corps to just drain reservoirs into recently flooded farmland without telling local farmers or leaders. “In 25 years, I’ve never seen anything like this.”
