Talk like this should galvanize those who care about freedom.
I think it's very important to note that when you want to run human misery like a business--a business based on rounding up people to ship them to a country they aren't from to work in forced labor camps--you're a slaver.

In Nigeria, "maga" is a slang term that refers to someone who is gullible or easily deceived, often in the context of scams or trickery. It is commonly used in conversations about fraud, particularly in relation to internet scams. Yes, share.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

This is called fraudulent accounting, and it’s what Trump was found criminally guilty of by a New York court.
Trump Administration may be on track to put its thumb on critical GDP data: “Doing so could potentially complicate or distort a fundamental measure of the U.S. economy’s health.” Via AP.
The Trump administration may exclude government spending from GDP, obscuring the impact of DOGE cuts

The people in power intend to completely annihilate scientific infrastructure, capacity, & research in the US. No institution will be spared if its mission is to advance science.
Everyone is already a target, whether you speak up or not. So, institutions, consider speaking up.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
