Seen here in 1950, Hugo Gernsback

Inventor of the "television glasses" and a dry battery.

Today's tech-bros aren't that original, just wealthier and more brazen.

1 thing is clear after VP Vance’s outrageous speech this weekend, our allies & others are finally calling a thing, a thing. Putting ur head in the sand & acting like the GOP have not become full-blown fascists is a fools errand. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Forever, the courts have been an important arbiter of what a President can, and can’t do. That is under threat now:

I just noticed that USAID OIG had oversight of activities in GAZA & Ukraine. With Trump just announcing the takeover of GAZA days after USAID (and OIGs in general) gets put on ice - it puts a new spin on things...

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Trump & co. are the apotheosis of a methodical, relentless five-decade conservative anti-gov program.

Trump Doesn’t Want to Make Government Better—He Wants to Dismantle It
The assault on nearly every branch of gov is actually part of a plan reaching back decades.

The United States is under attack. Elon Musk—who has been elected to nothing and is a deeply troubled person—is literally destroying our government from the inside and doing so without authority or consent of the governed. Working on a report on this right now. It’s an emergency.

So, Musk employees have been given the personally identifying information of every federal employee?

Does this include Dod and State Dept staff?

How is this not a massive security breach?

The biggest argument the GOP made to kill DEI everywhere, is that mandating diversity will exclude the most qualified applicants.

Yet the Trump team has paraded out the least qualified individuals one can think of...and for very sensitive posts.

Yet the MAGA hordes don't see the problem...🤔

The intermittent blindness and hypocrisy of the GOP is quite something to behold. 🤨

Fani had a tête-à-tête with an assistant and gets thrown from a case. Trump broke business laws to hide a payment to a porn star, and he gets to be president.

I need an Ibuprofen.💊
A Georgia appeals court disqualified Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from prosecuting the 2020 election subversion case against President-elect Donald Trump and dozens of others but rejected a request to dismiss the indictment.

"Hitler set about destroying a constitutional republic through constitutional means."

Refusing to confirm judges. Stripping state offices of power if a Democrat wins an election...

This is how it happens.

One of the things I love searching for most on YouTube are covers of songs I love by lesser known or unknown artists. My current favorite find - Drew Peterson and the Dead Pigeons doing a cover of The Cure's "Just Like Heaven" in a raw, hillbilly style.

Nate Fischer/New Founding is also looking at building communities of "like-minded" people and investors. He recently received some seed capital from Marc Andreesen.

Someone's been showing Trump history flashcards, and he wants to rename a mountain for a president known for increasing tariffs and imperialistic land grabs. 🙄

McKinley was president when phones and automobiles were just becoming household items.

Sigh.
