25 y/o vet George Retes, a citizen, was ICE-napped en route to work—tear-gassed, cuffed, ghosted for 3 days. No charges. No calls. No clue. “Oops” won’t cut it. The Empire eats its own. Fnords howl. Chaos knows the truth: this isn’t justice—it’s ritual abuse. Investigate everything. 🌀🇺🇸

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people:

At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.
NEW — 19-year-old DOGE engineer Edward Coristine turns out to be the grandson of former KGB spy Valery Martynov, who played a role in a sprawling 1980s espionage saga.

Trump just fired hundreds of employees with the FAA — weeks after the fatal D.C. crash exposed agency understaffing.

The union repping the employees called the firings a "hastily made decision" that would increase the workload of a workforce already stretched thin. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...
Hundreds of FAA employees are let go as Trump's mass layoffs continue
The firing of nearly 300 Federal Aviation Administration employees comes just weeks after a midair collision in Washington, D.C., killed 67 people.

In times of trouble we all need a vision to inspire us. This is from a Bertold Brecht play “ Mother Courage”. *sold* I painted this preparing for cancer treatment. I urge everyone to create their own powerful image to be their guiding star.

NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

When the Patriot Act was passed, libraries got requests for patrons’ borrowing history. We were prohibited from disclosing those requests.

We deleted and shredded those records and stopped tracking reading history for that reason.

ALSO.

He’s the president’s biggest donor, he gets a west wing office, he gets to oust the administrator of the federal aviation administration, he gets to send emails to the entire federal workforce trying to scam them out of their pensions, and he’s a nazi.

"No thanks is a massive understatement! PGE's 'Harborton Project' isn't just a cut; it's corporate vandalism of Forest Park! They'll bulldoze centuries-old trees & wetlands for data centers, not residents. Ratepayers pay, and nature dies. Greed, not need.

“In 2024, Donald Trump won the popular vote by 1.5 points,” writes the columnist @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social. “Trump and Democrats alike treated this result as an overwhelming repudiation of the left and a broad mandate for the MAGA movement. But by any historical measure, it was a squeaker.”

The president-elect’s cultural victory has lapped his political victory.
