The federal government knows your mother’s maiden name, your bank account number, the student debt you hold and more. President Trump and Elon Musk are trying to connect these records, raising the prospect of creating a kind of data trove about Americans that the government has never had before.
How Musk and Trump Are Working to Consolidate Government Data About You
Elon Musk’s team is leading an effort to link government databases, to the alarm of privacy and security experts.

All together, the 9 billionaires tapped by Trump to serve in his administration are worth at least $340 billion – higher than the GDP of 172 countries.

Why any working person in America would ever think Trump or his administration is looking out for your interests is a mystery to us.

Greed knows no end. This is a win for wild lands and wild horses, and the environment. At least we are dealing with the Department of the Interior instead of trying to effect change with Utah run special interests.

Tractor Supply sells pet and farm animal feed, fencing materials, tools, garden supplies, and quality children's toys for homes and small farms.
They planned to expand to the suburbs. Keep up the boycott.
BTW, DUM DUM MAGAs think they sell tractors.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Please remember there are billionaires spending money on outrage media to make you mad at federal civil servants instead of the Supreme Court they bought. Please save your outrage for the actual fascists.

Representative Deb Haaland was a supporter of wild horses. After her confirmation and a trip to Utah to visit cattle barons she completely reversed her position to support Trump!! There is no reason to expect that Trump's Interior Sect'y will change the policy.

Last time The Other Guy dominated my life. I went to sleep dreading the next morning. That had a price on health and mental well-being.
This time I will live my values but I will not let it destroy my peace. I've started painting in the evenings. It helps find my quiet center after the sh** show.

So along with more lives than a cat, Trump has an untold number of Get Out of Jail Free cards. Yes, he does.
I always suspected rules were different for the rich, but this I won't ever get used to.
Well it worked—mission accomplished for Donald Trump.

That f*cker ran for president to escape facing accountability for his crimes and in the process proves that he is above the law. The justice system failed America.

If you aren't aware of the round ups of wild Mustangs in the western US, this is a list of great resources. The BLM is setting to zero out many HMA's and these horses end up in holding facilities. Our tax dollars pay for it all. Please, look.
