Trump says he’s so concerned about keeping criminals out of this country, yet he just pardoned over 1,500 people convicted for the January 6 Capitol attack. Even two top police organizations are condemning the pardons.

Trump just revoked the Equal Employment Opportunity executive order of 1965, rolling back 60 years of progress on civil rights.
The order had prohibited employment discrimination in federal hiring based on race, religion, and gender.

I guess Trump won’t be bringing down the cost of eggs anytime soon.
The egg industry has been impacted by a surge of bird flu cases, with more than 13 million egg-laying hens dying in December. That means a dozen large, Grade A eggs cost an average of $4.15 -- a nearly 37% increase from the year before. via @kcur.org
Egg prices are soaring again. Here’s why and what to expect
Bird flu has killed millions of hens in recent weeks, shrinking the supply of eggs and hiking up prices at grocery stores.

Presenting one idea from Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE):
Vivek Ramaswamy wants to require federal workers to go into their offices more frequently, which, he hopes, will cause many of them to quit. Ramaswamy considers that a noble goal.

Kash Patel has been a danger to this country for years. John Bolton compared him to a Soviet secret police leader. Bill Barr said he’d let Trump appoint Kash to the # 2 spot in the FBI “over my dead body” saying the idea showed a “shocking detachment from reality.” Patel should never head the FBI.
