This story is extraordinary even by 2025 standards. Marco Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, made a deal with Bukele and agreed to renege on informant agreements in a years-long DOJ investigation into MS-13, totally undercutting credibility of such agreements.

Rubio promised to betray U.S. informants to get Trump’s El Salvador prison deal
To secure U.S. access to President Nayib Bukele’s notorious CECOT prison, Rubio agreed to turn over several MS-13 leaders central to a long-running Justice Department investigation.

Whoa! The shutdown’s ripple effect starting to hit.
Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages.
If you’re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

Think of this as equivalent to removing the merit system from government employment.
Your tax dollars deployed to serve the goals of a personalist authoritarian system. All the talk about banning DEI because of merit shown to be nonsense when they also remove merit-based processes.

Awarding scientific grants based on scientific merit? That pales in comparison to my strategy, giving grants based on political loyalty

It's very hard for a journalist to cancel a subscription to a newspaper they once loved. Here, @willbunch.bsky.social explains why he's canceled the Washington Post. "I can’t spare one thin dime to the enablers of this American fascism that I’d hoped to never see in my lifetime."
The Washington Post was the paper of my teen dreams -- whose courage helped convince me to chose a life in journalism. Monday's firing of the Post's moral beacon, Karen Attiah, proved that a newsroom I'd believed in is now dead to me
