There are over 1,000 victims of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking and abuse. But Donald Trump and Ghislaine Maxwell are not victims; they are collaborators and participants. Neither deserves a moment of peace before they rejoin their partner in Hell.

Trump can’t fire Fed officials. It’s as simple as that. No need to complicate it.
Unlike most government officials, Cook's salary isn't paid out by the Treasury. The Fed is self-financing, it turns a profit and is authorized by law to use that to pay its expenses.
If they just keep paying her, and continue to let her participate, it's not even clear what he could do about that.

It’s Time for Americans to Start Talking About “Soft Secession”
Blue states are finally learning what red states have known all along: you don’t need federal permission to govern.

SCOTUS thought they could ride the tiger and get what they wanted ideologically. In exchange, they would give him everything he wanted except the Fed. Just leave the Fed alone and you can ignore all federal law. But it ended the same way it has for everyone who tried to ride the tiger since 2016.

Jordy: I call it the leaky fascist faucet. You have CEOs giving Trump gold, then it's let's do a little gerrymandering, let's send the National Guard into this one city, and the next. And then? It'll be:
We need to deploy the military during elections to make sure no "election fraud" is happening.

They say they’re worried about a “shrinking workforce,” but they’re silent when ICE rips apart documented families who all have jobs. And a $5,000 “baby bonus” won’t fix what $310,000 in real costs breaks. This is not about the workforce.

Maybe Doge should look into some savings here eh?
Starship blowing up is a bigger deal than you think. It’s not a prototype in a sandbox anymore, it’s a $4B NASA contract to land humans on the Moon ($2.8B initially, $4B with follow-ons). Every explosion is taxpayer-funded hardware going up in flames.

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference.
But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

Trump’s pretense that he’s fighting antisemitism has always been a transparent fig leaf for using real antisemitism to destroy universities, as illustrated by his hosting on May 23 of cryptocurrency investors whose coins bear slogans like “F*CK THE JEWS.”

Trump will reportedly end the IRS Direct File program that allowed taxpayers to file taxes for free.
This comes after Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the government for years to block IRS free file.
Intuit donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration.
