  1. Leavitt said on Fox that flights are taking migrants to Gitmo today.
  2. This is the most insane thing I’ve read this morning. They’re not industry targeted- just blanket on every single thing imported, right? And China hasn’t begun retaliating. Does anyone remember the last Trump trade war with China? Ag industry needed a massive bailout. And that had an end game in some trade deal ostensibly about protecting American IP - but where is the off ramp this time?
  3. Yeah amazing so many people are distracted by 200+ years of Constitutional order being steamrolled by an unelected billionaire. If GOP doesn’t like it- they’ve got both houses of Congress. Never mind the costs to privacy, national security and literal human lives. *waves hands* it’s just so unimportant
  4. Not unless he gets rid of Congress with the blessing of the Supreme Court. It’s like none of you watched the second half of Hamilton
  5. In case everyone was getting carried away ranting about how Trump put out a fire he started Let’s not forget about this bullshit
  6. It’s certainly too many to be a coincidence
  7. he needs an act of Congress for this- there is a whole popular musical about it and everything. he can’t appropriate taxpayer dollars into a slush fund by decree. Honestly the press is failing at showing the weaknesses of attempting to govern by lawless EOs and doing little more than repeating verbatim the press releases from the White House
  8. I’m not clicking through but the headline is some bull shit framing. GOP controls the House, Senate, and Presidency. If the government shuts down, it’s because Republicans couldn’t get the funding bill passed with their own votes.
  9. This is the Central Valley lakes that were released into a flood zone miles away- great job by the press on the follow up.
  10. I’ll take any action in opposition to this lawless dictatorship bullshit than inaction fueled by cynicism. “When have protests or civil unrest ever changed anything in government?” See how dumb that sounds?
  11. some Dems in senate/house are trying to make some noise
  12. Biden got the same concession about increasing Mexican troops at the border but somehow he didn’t have to crash our economy to achieve it
  13. Ever since Bin Ladin was killed (at least) foreign actors have accused the government from using USAID as a front for intelligence operations- I don’t think it’s a coincidence that this is the first agency Musk and Trump are trying to close down. I don’t believe for a minute this is about illegally stopping funding for things like supplies and education programs to combat Ebola in Africa
  14. I’m legit ready to march in DC to protest this dictatorial bullshit. If anyone has any info on some civil action- please post it here.
  15. USAID was created by an act of Congress and can’t be closed on a whim of an unelected billionaire. What the actual fuck is happening
  16. USAID is an agency created by Congress and it can’t be closed by presidential fiat - or whatever role Musk pretends to have. Is there really going to be no pushback at all? Where is Congress?
