Easy. The banks did. And the GOP did their bidding.

These are the dumbest times, led by the dumbest of people.
The image is a screenshot of a post on X by a user named Yaroslav Trofimov (@yarotrof ). The post includes a quote in quotation marks: "These two countries." Below this, there is a screenshot of a post by Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump ) that reads: "If the EUROPEAN UNION works with CANADA in order to do economic harm to the USA, large scale TARIFFS, far larger than currently planned, will be placed on them both in order to protect the best friend that each of those two countries has ever had!"

No horror is too low to go for them.

Andy Biggs introduces bill to abolish OSHA and completely eliminate federal workplace safety protections."

Trump just pulled Elise Stefanik’s nomination for UN Ambassador because he’s worried about her district flipping blue in a special election.

Her district voted for Trump by *20%.*

They know how deeply unpopular they have become.

From SCAD Savannah Film Festival to The Oscars: It was impressive to me that SCAD had the foresight to have already honored Mikey Madison, Kieran Culkin, Zoe Saldana, and Paul Tazewell at the 2024 Savannah Film Festival. The curators of the festival continue to impress! #TheOscars2025

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.

Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

One of the co-directors of NO OTHER LAND, Hamdan Ballal was beaten by Israeli settlers and seized by Israeli soldiers from the ambulance Ballal called, per co-director Yuval Abraham. No one knows where Ballal is. (Ballal is second from right in the below photo.)
Post by Yuval Abraham, announcing what has been done to Hamdan Ballal. NO OTHER LAND directors.

Would anyone blame them if they said “hell no” to that?
alt text A screenshot of a post on X by Karly Kingsley (@karlykingsley ): "Fair question." Below, a post by Mike Rothschild (@rothschildmd ) reads: "The US is scheduled to co-host the World Cup in 2026 and the Olympics in 2028. Why would thousands of international athletes and millions of fans from around the world come to a country where tourists, asylum seekers, and visa holders are being disappeared to foreign prisons?" Both accounts have blue checkmarks. Rothschild's profile picture shows a person in a suit.

Yet Republicans lost their minds over Hillary’s emails.
A tweet from Tim Walz (@Tim_Walz) reads, "Pete Hegseth texting out war plans like invites to a frat party." Below is a screenshot of a tweet from The Atlantic (@TheAtlantic) stating that American war planning usually takes place in secure facilities, but the Trump administration planned strikes on the Houthis using a group chat—and accidentally included The Atlantic’s editor.

here's another chunk
from today's post —
thanks for reading!

deal is here: bit.ly/4hHMHPG
a president who gave an actual shit about national security would have fired Hegseth on the spot — and a Secretary of Defense who cared about his own integrity would have resigned before Donny had the chance to fire him. that’s Donny’s Confederacy of Sewer Clowns for you. not one of them was hired for their expertise — or their integrity. they’re all a bunch of incompetent ideologues and toadies who fuck up spectacularly on a daily basis — and as long as they keep kissing Dear Leader’s ass, not one of them will ever face accountability.

“I love poorly uneducated.” — Donald Trump
The image is a screenshot of a post on X by the account Robert Reich (@RBReich ). The post reads: "Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy. Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media. That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, and the arts. Ignorance is the handmaiden of tyranny."

They’re gonna move the goal posts a lot for the DUI hire.
The image is a screenshot of a post on X by the account Jim Himes (@jahimes ). The post reads: "Last week, Tulsi Gabbard said 'any unauthorized release of classified information is a violation of law and will be treated as such.' By the Trump admin’s own 'standards' everyone on this chain would lose their access to classified info and be subject to criminal investigation." Below this, there is a reposted tweet from Shane Harris (@shaneharris ), which states: "In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on the Houthis in a Signal group—and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of..." (the message cuts off). The reposted tweet was made 6 hours prior, as indicated by the timestamp.

I’m no expert, but it’s looking more and more like hiring a bunch of Fox News pinheads and putting them in charge of agencies for which they have absolutely no skills or experience is the worst fucking way in the world to run a government. because here’s what happens when you do that: a bunch of them start casually texting each other about how they’re going to bomb the shit out of Yemen, like they were planning a neighborhood cookout. Pete’s in charge of bringing the kegs.
