I HATE Trump! I hate his followers. They all have Duning Kruger Effect. It’s a cognitive bias whereby people. With limited ability in any given subject (e.g. politics and Trump.) They tend to greatly overestimate their own competence!

Good job, Louisiana! Voters rejected all 4 constitutional amendments on the March 29 ballot, keeping state's tax, legal, & judicial systems unchanged. Driven by unexpectedly high turnout, voters across the state delivered a blow to proposals pushed by Gov. Jeff Landry.

The media is failing abjectly in how it is framing what this administration is doing.
Has congress passed a law superseding or eliminating the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961?
Has the Supreme Court declared it unconstitutional?
Then why are journalists reporting that Trump and Musk are "shutting down" USAID. They are not authorized to do so.

NY just passed a new law aimed at stopping red states from prosecuting NY doctors who prescribe abortion pills. It lets doctors keep their names off of abortion pill prescriptions.

There's a current fetish for publishing primary source documents rather than having a reporter describe them, and I totally get it. But remember Reality Winner was caught almost immediately because the Intercept published what she printed out, unaware the NSA printer left an imperceptible watermark.
Any company or organization can use what's called a "canary trap" to try to ID leakers. Reporters - you can always just transcribe, describe or quote source materials like emails, memos, etc. if you're not sure if you'd reveal a source by showing a complete image of something leaked to you.
