Pathetic.
This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Trump and the GOP are trying to repeal a Biden admin rule that requires lead water pipes to be replaced.

Tens of millions of people, including children, would continue to have contaminated drinking water if the rules are revoked.

So the GOP is the party of lead poisoning now?
Republicans move to repeal lead limits imposed by Biden-era rules
US government would be prohibited from ever mandating lead pipe replacement or lowering lead limits in water

This is an understatement of the assault on the American constitutional system of government from Trump and the Project 2025 folks.
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

The first two weeks into President Trump's second tour in the White House "have seen so many lines crossed in the pursuit of his agenda that anyone who believes in the Constitution and honest governance should be worried," the editorial board writes.
Opinion | Trump’s Test of the Constitution
Two weeks in, the president is quickly moving to eliminate tools of accountability.

The reality is that these positions are more important than Sec of Defense because they will do all the work and define all strategies. He won't freelance decisions.

@mcuban.bsky.social can you start a news channel on cable television, and have Aaron Parnas as one of the main journalist? It’s time we get a truthful news program for people wanting truth.

Disgusting that Trump would release a dark web mastermind in addition to his insurrection henchmen
President Trump granted a pardon to Ross Ulbricht, the creator of the Silk Road drug marketplace. Ulbricht was serving a life sentence for creating a site in a shady corner of the internet to sell heroin, cocaine and other illicit substances.

Release of those who assaulted police at the capitol Jan 6 — from the perspective of one of the victims
Sergeant Gonell @sergeantaqgo.bsky.social sent me this picture. This is his call log. Each call is an automated Dept of "Justice" notification saying "The defendant you testified against is being released from the dept of corrections."
Each defendant assaulted him.

I’m concerned that Americans are flocking to a number of adversary-owned social media platforms. We still need a comprehensive and risk-based approach to assessing and mitigating the risks of foreign-owned apps.

We need a federal data privacy law now.

Or we’ll continue down the road of a piecemeal strategy of banning popular foreign apps, while the US data broker industry continues to monetize the data of all Americans, mostly without our consent or notice. #AIBillofRights
