These two PhD students spoke about the importance of their work: "If they go to a hospital, they're gonna get treated, but they don't see that we're the ones that are coming up with those cures in the first place—even going back to basic biology research, basic science research."

Everyone will feel it if the Department of Education is shut down. Teachers. Schools. Programs to provide food for kids in need. Parents of kids with special needs and of course, the kids themselves. Everyone will feel it if the weather bureau shuts down and you can't get early warning of disasters.

"It's about time those DC insiders got their comeuppance." First, of all, most of these people are just people who have devoted their whole lives to public service, often eschewing career paths that could have brought them a great deal more wealth and security. They're not rich.

I do not know a single person in DC who has not been directly negatively impacted by the "sudden disassembly in flight" of the U.S. government. In most cases the impact is major and professional and pyschological as well as economical. You might shrug it off and say, "It's about time."

Trump's acting CFPB director (Scott Bessent) stopped the agency's work, which includes:

-Capping credit card rates and excessive fees
-Penalizing banks for ripping off consumers
-Preventing politically-motivated debanking

It's a victory for Wall Street at your expense.

Overwhelmed by unhinged government? Take a moment: You can make a difference by contacting your representatives.

I called Rep. Tom Emmer today. His office heard my concerns about:

1) Musk usurping Congress' finance powers.

2) Human suffering from USAID cuts, and holding immigrants at Guantánamo.

No surprise really. I've already seen increases in my grocery stores vs a month ago.
I had breakfast with a friend this morning who works in consumer marketing. They told me that many companies are planning massive price increases on consumer goods—cars, groceries, and appliances—after the Super Bowl. They’ve priced in the Trump tariff chaos and are going to take advantage.

“Here’s our spies, Kremlin asset!”
New via NYT — The CIA sent the White House an unclassified email listing all employees hired by the spy agency over the last two years to comply with an executive order to shrink the federal work force. One former agency officer called the reporting of names a “counterintelligence disaster.”

There's a report that #RoKhanna abstained from a vote to investigate #ElonMusk . Turns out it's not true. The vote was called without notice. He's requested a second vote.
