Musk’s staffers are now forcing federal employees at several agencies including the FAA to sign non-disclosure agreements. The goal is simple: silence the resistance through more threats and now, forced agreements. Maybe we’re not supposed to be talking about being forced to sign NDAs… oops, lol.

A colleague at Stanford’s business school used The Stanford Daily to argue—poorly—against DEI. The piece was riddled with historical errors and left one searching for fact, so I broke my public writing hiatus to respond.

I hope you’ll read and share the piece.

What DEI threatens isn’t merit. It’s monopoly.
Political science professor Hakeem Jefferson argues for DEI's importance to de-monopolizing universities.

Gorgeous photo from The Color Nature Library: CATS by Peggy Wratten, 1977. I can't find the photographer's name, unfortunately. None is noted anywhere in the book.

Proud of all of you worldwide! The boycott is working—Tesla shares are now in their seventh straight week of declines, marking the company’s longest losing streak since going public in 2010. Look at the stock today—beautiful work!

he's going to do this for every special and every midterm race unless we can break tesla first
Musk has now poured $8.3 million into buying the tie-breaking Wisconsin Supreme Court seat for Brad Schimel. That is vastly more than any other single donor—to eliminate a state-level check on his and Trump's power.

Remembering a lot of people saying stuff like “I don’t agree with RFK Jr. on everything but at least he’s going to do something about the food that’s making us sick”
USDA has eliminated two food safety advisory committees for microbiological contamination and meat inspection. Most recently, they had been reviewing regulatory approaches in response to the fatal Listeria outbreak from Boar’s Head meats and fatal Cronobacter contamination in powdered infant formula
USDA eliminates two food safety advisory committees
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has eliminated two committees that advise it on food safety, the agency said on Friday, raising concerns about government oversight of the food supply as the Trump administration seeks to downsize the federal bureaucracy and slash costs.

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025.

This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

Donald Trump promised to lower food prices.

Instead, he fired the experts in charge of containing the bird flu.

Yep – the same bird flu that’s part of the reason egg prices are surging.

It’s almost like none of this was fraud waste or abuse, but simply a bunch of un- and misinformed narcissists who didn’t understand how much a government does for its people.
Chaos continues. Musk has basically frozen vast amounts of day to day spending that keeps agencies functioning. This includes "contractors who help identify U.S. soldiers killed in combat who were told to pause their efforts." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
