“Because you see, there are not three branches in our government as most of us were taught in school. There are four…..Washington famously rejected a monarch’s title. Rather, our Constitution confers the power of the sovereign to the American people—“we the people.” ‼️

SCOOP: The US Treasury claimed a DOGE's Marco Elez didn’t have ‘write access,’ when he actually did. Sources tell WIRED that his ability to alter code controlling trillions in federal spending was rescinded, days after officials said it didn't exist.

Somebody yelled at me for posting about Ganymede instead of /the state of things/ last night.

I know we’re (almost) all on the same page here, but a Bluesky without cute cats, science facts, and dumb jokes would be bad for everyone.

Alan Dershowitz...the guy who defended Jeffrey Epstein and wrote an op-ed about wanting to drop the age of consent for sex with minors...doesn't want people to call Donald Trump a convicted felon.

You know what to do.

Donald Trump is a 34x felon.

Do what the GOP does: the message is all about blame and repeated ad nauseum.

E.g., "these fires are worse and more frequent because of global warming, which Republicans want to make worse while cutting billionaire's taxes so we can't pay for firefighters or rebuilding."

Then say it over and over.
Just wrapped up an interview w a House Dem about Laken Riley Act (he's against it) and the party is still unsure of how to handle this info environment. While you're approving a press release Elon has convinced 100 million people that you personally started the fire to enact Agenda 21.
I think it also should be mentioned that the person who really got this going was Rick Caruso, the West Coast Trump/developer who Bass kicked the ass of in the election, and who falsely spread conspiracy theories about fire hydrants in the same radio interview.

Also this: Between 2019 and 2021, Trump cut funding for the critical wildfire suppression program by nearly $600 million, even though his administration acknowledged that 63 million acres of federal forest lands and 70,000 communities were at risk of uncharacteristically severe wildfires.
