Gift link.

A small unelected, secretive crew now has free access to sensitive private data of everyone.

And Musk is already publicly targeting family members of judges who rule against the administration.

If this isn’t ringing alarm bells, I don’t know what would.

If you're not yet following Alt National Park Service, please do so. They're sharing important insider information.
A team of engineers who work for Musk’s SpaceX will visit the Federal Aviation Administration’s air traffic control system command center in Virginia as the Trump administration considers an overhaul of the agency, which was previously seen as exempt from government cuts.

I'm about to drop some random scripts and carousels tonight. It's not going to be as orderly as I normally am; there's just a LOT going on.

But follow this thread. Script 1: RFK has made it through committee. CALL. YOUR. SENATORS.

We have to do everything in our power to defeat him.

Okay, I want to say it again for anyone who needs to hear it right now:

Yes, calling is better for getting in touch with your reps. But right now? DO IT HOWEVER YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE.

I'm really concerned that the emphasis on calling right now is stopping people from getting in touch.

Today we really need dozens of members of Congress to physically enter buildings that have been commandeered by DOGE interns and refuse to leave until things are fixed, whatever that might mean. I can't think of another option.

Today is not a great day for biz as usual. Please take a moment to call your senators and demand they stop the illegal takeover of treasury functions (budgets and payments are approved by congress, not subject to unilateral decisions by presidents or their reps): www.senate.gov/senators/sen...

The Heritage Foundation is threatening to go after writers and editors of Wikipedia.

It’s time to donate some more money if you can.

It’s one of the only places that’s safeguarding facts.

Just finished watching Mike Schur's newest series, A Man on the Inside, and it was just as charming and full of heart as I'd hoped. Fans of The Good Place and Brooklyn 99 (and even Gilmore Girls) will recognize some familiar faces. Ted Danson is perfect, as always.

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.
