This morning, Trump thanked the National Guard for handling protests they weren’t even present for. That’s how far they’ll go to sell the lie. Trump wants this fight, not to keep peace, but to justify using the military against Americans. A textbook authoritarian move.

People will say this is the result of a presidential election, and that’s partly true. But the Constitution does not delegate tariff power to the president, and he is only able to impose these ruinous, peace-destroying taxes because Congress has let him do so. Congress can end this at any time.

Secure release from CECOT prison, rectify deportation injustice
Text SIGN PTBCPK to 50409 — The Trump administration's wrongful deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland resident with legal protected status, to the notoriously abusive CECOT prison in El Salvador is a grave injustice. Despite acknowledging this egregious error, the administration claims it lacks the ability to secure Garcia's return from Salvadoran custody. This stance is unacceptable. The U.S. government has a moral and legal obligation to rectify this injustice swiftly. Moreover, credible reports suggest other innocent individuals may also be unjustly imprisoned at CECOT under the guise of targeting gang members. The administration must urgently investigate these cases and expedite the release and repatriation of any wrongfully detained persons. Failure to take immediate corrective action would constitute a shameful dereliction of duty and a violation of human rights. The request is clear - mobilize all available diplomatic channels and resources to secure the unconditional release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia and any other unlawfully incarcerated individuals from the brutal conditions at CECOT. Continued inaction is inexcusable when the freedom and well-being of U.S. nationals and innocent people are at stake. Decisive action to right these wrongs is imperative.

Wow- in response to questioning from Sen. Jack Reed, Tulsi Gabbard just testified that she was overseas while participating in the signal chat on bombing Yemen. He followed up by asking whether she was using a personal phone for the conversation and she refused to answer. Seems bad!

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help

I’m amazed by the lack of journalistic scrutiny American politicians are exposed to from the media.

Fact-checking wasn’t “biased” against conservatives. Conservatives just shared more false content. If there’s a sportsball game and one team fouls four times as much, it’s not “biased” for the ref to call four times as many fouls against that team.

Meta is dropping fact-checking to avoid anti-conservative bias- but is there actually evidence of bias?
We this test empirically & find that conservatives

So suspension isn't necessarily evidence of bias www.nature.com/articles/s41...
