More than 500 law firms rally behind embattled peers, declaring that Trump’s crackdown on the legal industry poses “a grave threat to our system of constitutional governance and to the rule of law itself.” But none of the top 20 firms join. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/b...

Sweet Baby Jesus,
Why did you take our brains from us? Was it the Trump bibles? Was it worshiping a golden oaf? How can we make amends?

From an FDA probationary employee: the firings are coming from outside the agency without cause and with zero input from supervisors (as promised.) More firings expected between now and Tuesday. Do not open the termination email before you download your documents and performance evals.

Please, please listen, I am literally begging you:
I'm a healthcare lawyer who is alive because of Medicaid. I just came from Hill meetings about Medicaid. I'm very plugged into "the groups" — if you're covered by Medicaid, do not cancel anything medical because of the OMB mess.

I would not cancel any pending medical care if you’re covered by Medicaid

yes. they couch it as restoring the constitutional order, but the plain fact is they want to bring back a legal regime that sanctioned apartheid
The medium-term goal here, which most of these people openly admit if you ask them, is the repeal of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which restores their ability to segregate by race, bar black people from businesses, and racially discriminate.

In 1659, the the Puritans in Massachusetts enacted a law that declared that Christmas was sacrilege and exchanging of gifts, greetings, and wearing fine clothing on that day was Satanic. Anyone caught celebrating was fined 5 shillings. (About 5 days wages.)
The "War on Christmas" was an inside job.

I think this should be kind of a big deal: Elon Musk tweeting at 1:03am, “Only the AfD can save Germany.”
The AfD is Germany’s neo-Nazi party.

Ever wondered why walking around museums is weirdly tiring? At normal speed our legs act like pendulums, swinging forward from the hip & saving us a huge amount of energy. In "museum shuffle" our muscles must do ALL the work of constant readjustment. So cake in the cafe is scientifically justified 🥳

So as it turns out, Trump is worse for Gaza. Had we only known!
Donald Trump tapped retired Lt. General Keith Kellogg to be an Assistant to the President and Special Envoy for Ukraine and Russia.
Here Keith is saying that "it makes no sense to have a Palestinian state. It's not going to happen."
How are all you Jill Stein voters feeling now? Clowns.

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.
