Have we ever had a situation like this before, where a sitting president attempted to dismantle an agency created by Congress, by appointing someone like this. Obviously Trump made drastic changes within the EPA and such his first term, but has this more blatant scenario been tested?

For all of those saying UHC, obviously, but it sounds like Mark is thinking of something that could be accomplished outside of our political system, since clearly it is broken!

I appreciate AOC’s fervor but she is playing right into the right’s hands with verbiage like this.

Treasury access is not the least of our problems. They could be rerouting payments to themselves. Or Trump’s sovereign wealth fund. Who knows?

The issue is that with admin access to the code, it seems they could do anything they want. And to be clear, the Treasury did NOT state that Krause has read-only. They stated that Treasury staff members working with Krause do. Terrifying.

Didn’t wired say that?

The judge is literally about to stop all but the guys with admin privileges. This is a literal nightmare. How I’m about the very specific language about Medicare and SS payments not being re-routed? This entire letter is terrifying, and no one is catching on!!!!!

To all BUT the ones with admin privileges. Also note that the attorney hedged against perjury charges in the hearing by saying “to our knowledge.” Were Krause or Elez even called to testify?! Does the intentional verbiage around not rerouting Medicare and SS have significance?

PLEASE read the treasury letter with a more critical lens. It does NOT say that Krause has read-only. It says the “Treasury Staff members working with Krause” have read-only! This is intentionally worded to convey one thing while meaning something else, legally! The judge is about to block access…

A bystander recorded Chauvin kneeling on Floyd’s neck for 9 whole minutes while he slowly suffocated. It was barbaric.

Is there an alternative to Grok? Isn’t that Muskrat’s ai? Not surprised it fetishizes.

I agree that she is a Russian asset, but making her overweight in this ai drawing is offensive to larger women. Most of the women in trump’s orbit are skinny to an almost sickly level.

Really trying to convince me he’s an ant here. 🤣

Ant mimic? Here is one of mine:

Done!

Thanks! I remember you from Twitter!

WTF? So, basically, the conspiracy theorists had it mostly right, they were just looking at the wrong people? (They’ve been prattling about the WEF.)

Thank you! In 2017, during their first 6 month check in after the election they were told they had to start applying to other countries. They ended up moving to a friendlier state, but I’m worried about an emboldened admin. Hopefully that was just an overzealous agent.

I don’t dislike cats, I’d just like the feed to be a little more relevant to the current hurtle towards a fascist state. 🫤
