So here from USA Today
Is how the White Hose justified sending CA National Guard to Portland, today

Oregon’s lawsuit said that Trump announced the troop deployment after Fox News showed video clips from “substantially larger and more turbulent protests” in Portland in 2020.

Fear has a way of being contagious.

But courage is also contagious.

Wall Street keeps begging. Ackman keeps tongue bathing. Time they realize the only deliverance is Democrats and enough Republicans stripping Trump of all his (already frankly illegal) tariff powers. It’s a simple vote. Trump isn’t the one they need to beg or threaten.

In 1828, the "Tariff of Abominations" led to a populist uprising that put Andrew Jackson into the presidency

In 1930, the Smoot-Hawley Tariff led to a populist uprising that put FDR into the presidency

In 2025, Trump's tariffs will repeat history -- We the People will RISE UP

This is true: The Trump administration said it has imposed a 10% tariff on the British Indian Ocean Territory, whose only inhabitants are the U.S. and U.K. service members at the military base on Diego Garcia.
Incredibly, this appears to be true. We tariffed our own (jointly operated with the UK) military base.
We tariffed BIOT, Mike.

BIOT. Diego fucking Garcia.

We tarrifed our own military base.

This is important to resist. Please urge your congressperson to vote against the unwarranted slaughter of this native species.

I saw this on @propcazhpm.bsky.social ‘s TL and I would say , as someone who works in cybersecurity, that this is an excellent idea. Given all the government data ‘things’ that are happening lately.. you are going to want PDFs and hard copies.

Our seniors are not waste. Social Security is an EARNED benefit that Americans are entitled to.

The real fraud = GOP giving tax handouts to billionaires. And the real abuse = making it harder for seniors and people with disabilities to get their benefits.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

A reminder in dark times: kindness, mercy, decency, and respect towards the least of us enrages Trumpists. It burns them. It’s like a mirror that shows them how they fall short of humanity.

Kindness and decency towards the people Trumpists hate is not just right; it torments Trumpists.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

More trouble brewing.
The former head of the Social Security Administration says he expects the agency to miss on some payments over the next three months, interrupting some people's benefits, for the first time in Social Security's history of eight decades: www.cnbc.com/2025/03/01/d...
Social Security has never missed a payment. DOGE actions threaten 'interruption of benefits,' ex-agency head says
New changes at the U.S. Social Security Administration may put its ability to deliver monthly benefit checks at risk, former agency head says.

This is an amazing (and somewhat scary) tool that tracks the completion of the initiatives in Project 2025. Remarkably, they are already at 36% in just over a month.
