Hey, that’s my book! But these are the uncorrected proofs with a slightly different cover. I didn’t even know this existed until I saw it on eBay one day.

Identifying this as a child support database undersells it. By an accident of history (they needed it to enforce child support), the child support system is responsible maintaining in aggregate all state UI wage records. It's called the National Directory of New Hires. Extremely critical stuff.
New: DOGE sought access to a sensitive database kept by federal child-support office
Powerful system contains income info, Social Security numbers for *nearly all U.S. workers*

Trump’s purge at the Pentagon is just the start.
Last night he fired the highly-regarded General C Q Brown, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and replaced him with a retired three-star general, Dan Caine, who on their first meeting put on a MAGA cap and said ‘I love you, sir.’
