Trump’s team is taking a hatchet to the First Amendment, and waging a war against the media and against universities that is starting to look remarkably similar to wars in other countries that have embraced autocratic leaders in recent years.

You're plugged in and have heard comparisons of DOGE and Gamergate in passing.
I took a deeper dive — but still a short, breezy read — explaining how it goes much deeper than a comparison.
Gamergate was whiner boot camp. DOGE is the Loser Invasion.

One month in, and things are bleak. But it does seem personal resistance matters.
MAGA voters didn't want tariffs and DOGE. They wanted "cat ladies" to give up and marry some MAGA douche.
Not giving them the satisfaction isn't just fun. It's strategic.

“As the serious material implications of Trump's far-right agenda hit his voters in their pocketbooks and doctors' offices, it offers a daily reminder that Republicans didn't get the one thing they wanted, which was to strip us of our joy and our pride.”

RFK's not-so-veiled threat to take mental health drugs away is even worse than it looks at first blush.
He wants to replace these medications with labor camps.
This fits with the larger, eugenics-informed Trump/Musk agenda.

An asteroid that measures up to 300 feet across could smack into Earth in 2032, and while NASA says the chances of a collision are “extremely low,” the probability has been increasing since the space rock was discovered weeks ago.
NASA says that, yes, an asteroid buzzing by in 2023 could hit Earth
But — importantly — the chances are still "extremely low," though they have ticked up since the object was first detected.
