This is a senior Justice Department official.

Who is in charge of pardons.

And also in charge of investigating the “politicization” of the Justice Department.

Among the many errors this administration has made: 2019 was not the Biden administration. The VP tweets without first checking for obvious errors. If they make the easy ones, they're making the more subtle, less obvious ones too.

This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this.

The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

Ok, this is really worth watching if you’re concerned about what’s going on. Not sure how it helps with canceled federal office leases and illegally stopped government payments in the short term, but it gives me a bit of hope. Could it be he is going to just fail miserably once the courts catch up?

The fundamental issue that DOGE is failing to address isn’t the size of the government or how “efficient” it is — but who our government is for.

Should it work mainly for big corporations and billionaires — or for the rest of us?
The REAL Waste That DOGE Should Cut
DOGE is a trojan horse for Elon Musk to gut labor, consumer, and environmental protections. If he actually wanted to cut waste, he'd look at the massive tax ...

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

Something that I think we can all agree on is that the current generation of Democratic leadership is simply not optimized for the Attention Age. Not really their fault! And honestly, they may be better people for it, but it's a pretty pressing political problem.

Egg prices hit record highs this week.

Much of the increase is the result of egg shortages brought on by avian flu.

How has Trump responded? By ordering public health agencies to cease communications with the public.

His presidency is a threat to our health and our wallets.

Seems that what should be at the VERY LEAST competing for headline space is DJT’s appointment of Kash Patel as a loyalist who’ll convert the FBI into a tool of revenge.

And yet…all pardon, all the time.

Fascism is calmly walking into this country because no one will acknowledge that it’s there.

Great idea
Boston’s new bus shelter green roofs will help keep commuters cool, mitigate flooding, and create a citywide pollinator pathway.

Thanks for your kind words @cabellt.bsky.social. We’re really proud of this initiative and our amazing partners making it happen.
