One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.

The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.

But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

So glad to have seen Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney absolutely humiliate the orange felon on the world stage at the G7. That’s how you deal with a deranged tyrannical bully.

BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity.

This is a major win for public health.

DOGE wasn’t meant to save taxpayers money. 💵 💰

It was a successful attempt to gut agencies who regulate and audit billionaires like Musk to enrich them.

A senate investigation estimates Elon Musk alone will benefit by at least 2.37 billion. (see article below by TylerMcBrien)

If the judge is looking for an attorney to prosecute the Trump administration for contempt of court... 🙋‍♂️
What’s next?

(1) The gov can “purge” the contempt by asserting custody of people removed to El Salvador and by allowing them to pursue habeas claims

(2) If not, Boasberg will initiate proceedings to ID contemnor

(3) Refer to DOJ

(4) If DOJ refuses, "appoint another attorney to prosecute"

A very, very good question.
Is there any link between the Trump admin’s “deal” with El Salvador and Bukele’s plan for a “Bitcoin City,” which was going to be scaled back in order to receive loans from the IMF — and Trump admin’s plans to use gold reserves to buy Bitcoin?

Or all just coincidence theweek.com/business/eco...
