He voted for Trump. Now his wife sits in an ICE detention center.
ICE's deportation actions signal that anyone who isn't a US citizen is 'at risk – period,' immigration attorney says.

The first 6-weeks of this administration have been a primer on "How to wreck an economy", and I am not even touching the issue of the will-he-or-won't-he tarriffs. The ripple effects of the current cuts to thousands of jobs in the Federal sector may not personally effect you.../1

Why we need watchdog agencies 101.
Phenix Lumber was the deadliest workplace in America over the past five years. OSHA inspectors issued them more than 100 safety violations and millions in fines. Yet deaths and injuries continued.
It was the deadliest workplace in America. So why didn’t safety regulators shut it down?
OSHA issued over 180 citations and millions in fines to this Alabama sawmill, the deadliest workplace in America, but the mayhem didn’t stop.

Canadians booing the U.S. national anthem isn’t something I ever thought I’d see, but this is what happens when you let a psychopath criminal with isolationist and protectionist policies back into the White House.

I can't help but wonder if the demoralized Federal workers at the FAA had something to do with the tragedy at last night over the Potomac. We've been hearing about the Understaffed and Overworked Air Traffic Controllers for years. It's very possible.

...and then what? Federal workers are the glue that holds this country together and keep things running. I know they are "flooding the zone" but most of these directives wont hold up in a court and reek of not having been thought through. Stay tuned?

I am not certain that 47's Tariff threats are just distraction - a political performance piece to entertain us while he dismantles the Government. However, here's a great primer on what said Tariffs would affect.
President Trump has threatened to impose increased tariffs on products from Mexico, Canada and China as soon as Saturday — a move that could significantly increase prices on goods from three of America’s most important trading partners.
Here are the products that could be affected:

Here’s what could get more expensive if Trump enacts tariffs this week
Tomatoes, T-shirts and cars are among the vast array of goods that could become pricier if tariffs pledged by President Donald Trump go into effect.

Neat. "Rat on your co-workers for fun and profit, no strings attached!"
I'm not saying Musk wrote this—I'm saying if you've seen emails in which he's being crappy to his employees they sound a lot like this
What I said to my wife this evening is that I believe a lot of the actions happening now originated in the DOGE offices and are being distributed/executed by others

Many of these people belong in Guantanamo or some other suitable hell-hole for being the Terrorists they are, instead they are now free as birds. I am gutted.
Americans overwhelmingly opposed this.
He did it because he wants to send a signal to far-right domestic extremists all over the country that he will soon call on them to again commit violence to keep him in power—and if they do so well enough, they will face no consequences.
The message is clear.

I rarely check Threads anymore. It started out great, but the algorithm is weird. It started throwing up a lot of content I didn't care about, that Threads "thought" I wanted to see. BlueSky is much more like Twitter used to be, so I'll be hanging out here.
