If you don't need to, don't travel to the US. Cancel your plans and book somewhere else. Stop giving money to Trump.

Now they're bribing people to resign because they know how legally difficult it is to fire people.

Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

China's Commerce Ministry on Tuesday vowed to retaliate against fresh U.S. import tariffs set to take effect later in the day, reiterating its stance that the Trump administration was trying to "shift the blame" and "bully" Beijing over fentanyl flows.

NEW: A source tells me that response teams for FEMA set to deploy to the South Carolina wildfires are unable to travel because their government issued travel cards have had their limits reduced to $1. FEMA response team cards were supposed to be exempt.

My prediction is that they will fuck up the mail soon. I also predict that it will not be a popular move.

Nothing to worry about, just a US Senator calling for the prosecution of a member of Congress for political speech on the show of a(n unwitting) former Russian asset/dupe*

*Also Scott doesn't know that the immigration czar doesn't prosecute anyone
Rick Scott on AOC: "It sure seems like she's violating the law ... if she's done something wrong, I hope Tom Homan does his job and prosecutes her to the full extent of the law."

Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.

old Soviet joke for our times:

Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to.

Guy says: “looking for an obituary.”

Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.”

Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

He has no way of knowing this.

I've worked on convoy security ops that transported aid across Africa. People die just because the trucks are an hour late.

My spouse has volunteered with Drs w/o Borders, same thing... people die when stuff isn't on time.

After we published a public audit on Saturday, Elon Musk’s DOGE deleted hundreds more claims from its mistake-plagued “wall of receipts,” wiping out an additional $4 billion in so-called savings that the group had claimed to secure for U.S. taxpayers.

❗ALERT❗ There are 3 congressional seats up for election (FL-1, FL-6, NY-21), 2 with voting starting in 3 weeks (links below). Media has been strangely silent on this 🤔 Congress is 218 R, 215 D. If we pick up 3 seats, we gain control of the House. A major step towards stopping Trump’s agenda
