Lord knows I’m not a constitutional scholar not even a lawyer (and I’ve yet to check in with @kateshaw.bsky.social) but a legal regime in which “you can do crimes if you’re buddies with the president or praise him publicly” is *on its face* a violation the equal protection of the laws.

Let's all say it out loud. These people are fascists & this is a fascist take-over of the United States. You can couch your words more carefully, but the speed and ferocity of what is happening now is part-and-parcel of a coup. The GOP in Congress has surrendered. The Dems are out of their depth. 1/

President Musk says he’s going to dig into the F.A.A. technology systems and make safety upgrades.

The New York Times is reporting that Trump plans to fire 9,710 out of 10,000 USAID global employees.

So much for the aid suspension simply being a temporary review as Marco Rubio told the press just two days ago.

It would be pretty surreal for Democrats to negotiate over the budget... when GOP senators are explicitly saying it's alright for the Trump administration to ignore the budget & congressional authority, the constitution be damned.

I'm glad that America is doing real classic end of empire stuff. A king who is visibly losing his mind declaring a war based on a dream he had. Greedy courtiers feuding over access to the treasury. Some looks are timeless.
