To be clear, the FBI paid nearly $1M in overtime over a FIVE DAY PERIOD last March. And yes, part of it was to find and redact Trump's name. I spoke to sources who reviewed the files for the FBI and DOJ and wrote about it here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-epstei...

Bad News: if you described internment camps “but for illegals” to the median american voter, they would support it.
Good news: if the median American voter saw the internment camps, they would not support it.

we're going to have to do the whole thing again where we explain to people that "white nationalism" and "white supremacism" are the same thing, because mass expulsion of a certain people intrinsically requires murderous violence

we have to get out of this framing that the hard right has a point about immigration numbers, but they're saying it in a mean & racist way
even if they weren't racist at all (& they very much are), what they are calling for is still national suicide

The majority of DOGE's "work" is to use LLMs to search federal grants for the keywords "LGBTQ," "BIPOC," and similar, and then to cancel those grants.

The “poverty line” is’t 35,000, it’s $150,000, and making more than one, and less than the other is worse than being “poor”.
