Great day for everyone whose 2024 brand move was claiming that Dems were exaggerating how bad Trump would be.

A Nazi owns Twitter, right wing billionaires own the Wall Street Journal and the LA Times, and CBS is run by a right wing nepo baby who just fired one of the network’s biggest stars for criticizing Donald Trump. Here’s why America has a left-wing media bias problem.

Say what you will about Trump threatening to strip citizenship from his critics and have immigrants put into concentration camps in a swamp, but he never did anything truly power-mad like forgive student loans.

Today will possibly set the all time record high for this date in Austin by 10 degrees
Do you know how hard it is to set a high temp record by 10 degrees?
It's almost impossible
Or so we thought

The fake Boston Globe front page of what a Trump presidency would look like from 2016 seems awfully fuckin' quaint now. All of it is happening, the only real difference is, in this fantasyland, the military refuses to do some of it.

It is essential for the rule of law that everyone involved in this end up in prison. Nothing else is a sufficient deterrent against the intentional, repeated abuse of government power to systematically deny fundamental rights.

Democrats should hold 435 town halls this weekend. The ones in Republican districts hosted by local Dems or nonpartisan local officials or even ex-Republicans, with everyone, Democrats and independents and Republicans, invited.
The chair of the House GOP's campaign arm told Republican lawmakers to stop holding in-person town halls amid a wave of angry backlash over the cuts undertaken by President Donald Trump's administration.
No more in-person town halls, NRCC chief tells House Republicans
Rep. Richard Hudson issued the edict after a spate of testy episodes.

18F, the federal government’s technology shop, was demolished by Musk’s team shortly after midnight. It was a cost-recoverable org, charging agencies for their expertise, using a consulting model. Its cost to government was negligible, its benefits huge. My team there once saved DoD $500 billion.

I just don’t think it’s appropriate for men to humiliate and degrade themselves in public in a way that debases the culture and teaches bad values to children.
That’s why the Texas A&M Board of Regents shouldn’t do this. Drag shows are fine of course.

Texas A&M University System bans student drag shows because they might offend someone. Utter disregard for basic First Amendment rights.
![[...] WHEREAS, the Board recognizes and supports the efforts of the Universities’ student, staff and faculty organizations, to foster a sense of community and belonging for the many students, staff and faculty of the Universities from varied backgrounds; and
WHEREAS, the Board is aware that each of the Universities operate and maintain meeting rooms, theaters, auditoriums, and other venues available to student, staff and faculty organizations in which the organizations periodically host events that are open to members of the public (Special Event Venues); and
WHEREAS, the Board recognizes a special interest in maintaining the Universities’ Special Event Venues as limited forums for the purpose of promoting the mission of the System to provide education, conduct research, commercialize technology, offer training and deliver services for the people of Texas and beyond; and
WHEREAS, the Board finds that it is inconsistent with the System’s mission and core values of its Universities, including the value of respect for others, to allow Special Event Venues of the Universities to be used for drag shows that involve biological males dressing in women’s clothing, wearing exaggerated female make up and/or exaggerated prosthetics meant to parody the female body type, and that are: open to the public; involve sexualized, vulgar or lewd conduct; and involve conduct that demeans women (Drag Show Events); and
WHEREAS, the Board finds that Drag Show Events are likely to create or contribute to a hostile environment for women contrary to System anti-discrimination policy and Title IX . . ., as these events often involve unwelcome and objectively offensive conduct based on sex for many members of the respective communities of the Universities, particularly when they involve the mockery or objectification of women; and](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:7r477jd7q7p2mzmyqfm7jmp7/bafkreiam2cuuz55ed6mkkmnb67eihep65fve7lqniwbzttg27nv3n5yd5e@jpeg)

The Republican Party is the weaker party, at its core. When I had a GOP Congressperson he had exactly zero town halls in the city and district he represented. Would go talk at private events in the wealthier parts of town. But never the gerrymandered part he actually represented. Weakness.
“.. this [DOGE] narrative should end very soon,” the official said. “Probably the best way for that to happen is no more town halls.”
