Oddly enough, in media coverage of Dems' video warning against carrying out illegal orders, there's very little discussion of *whether it's actually reasonable to fear Trump is giving illegal commands or not.*

The evidence is strong that he is. Media should say so:

Difficult to overstate how profound a failure DOGE was. Spending in FY2025 was not only than in FY2024 – but higher than it was projected to be when Trump first took office.*

The little bit of spending DOGE cut has already killed hundreds of thousands and will eventually lead to millions of deaths.

"Soon after, Mr. Patel ripped into the SWAT team's commander, demanding an apology for one member's suggestion that Ms. Wilkins was 'a terrible singer and worse songwriter.'"

TAPPER: Dr Cassidy, RFK Jr lied to you

CASSIDY: First let me say what's most important -- vaccines are safe.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.

We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

There are going to be prominent Democrats and mainstream media voices who insist that we have to "turn the page" and "forgive and forget" and they should all be roundly ignored, if not mercilessly mocked.

So, special election next year for MTG seat. Here's the Democrat already in the race. 40-year military vet, retired as an Army Brigadier General. 5 children, 4 grandchildren. Wife Karla works as a family doctor. Plus, they run their grass-fed cattle farm. www.shawnforgeorgia.com/meet-the-can...

This is what the economically forgotten man in America has always needed as the elites have turned their nose at him - to strangle condors as they drink a jug of jet black water

Meets Zohran on Friday, dressing like an East Village poet who wrote something called "A Fairest Autumn" by Saturday.

She means it too, I can see it in her eyes.

This is the closest humans have gotten to achieving the Star Trek replicator

"May New Orleans remember exactly who the hell we are. May we lift our neighbors the way they lifted this city after the water came. May the dump trucks roll again if they must...[a]nd may the right words, however vulgar, however sacred, rise up like a brass band refusing to quit."

- Cheryl Gerber

'Suddenly exposed' DOGE employees fear prosecution after Musk abandoned them: report

don't threaten me with a really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really good time

Great point from @normornstein.bsky.social: Elon Musk has attached himself to Trump like Tony Curtis and Sidney Poitier handcuffed together in "The Defiant Ones."

It's hard to see how the brewing conflicts here don't end up splitting MAGA.

Our exchange on this:

Racial profiling is all they do. Lawless.

"Here’s what we don’t say out loud: There’s no money in journalism anymore. No fame, no glamour, no prestige. But there’s lots and lots of money in media—in being a brand, an influencer, a personality. We stopped paying journalists and started rewarding performers."

Marimar Martinez is a US citizen who was shot by ICE five times in Chicago.

She was then arrested, labelled a “domestic terrorist” and slandered on social media.

All charges against her have been dropped.

In this interview she shows on of the seven holes the ICE agent put in her body.

So Bezos is in them too then?

Archaeologist here. For 99.5% of human history (ca 300-400,000 years), we were peaceful (no war). There was conflict and smaller scale violence, but countless studies on the 119 known modern hunter gatherer groups show cooperation, negotiation, and peace instead of conflict. Please read books.
