Fuck you and all those damn boxes, Jeff.

Opinion | President Trump has dismissed an unvetted DOGE worker for advocating racism and eugenics. Why didn't Biden do this two weeks into HIS presidency? by Hugh Hewitt

Can anyone confirm this story? Only sources I can find are Reddit and that Krassenstein guy. www.newsweek.com/us-flag-upsi...

A teen DOGE staffer recently given access to government systems worked at a startup known for hiring convicted hackers. Someone using a Telegram handle associated with him also solicited a cyberattack-for-hire service in 2022. All raising questions about his vetting. www.wired.com/story/edward...

If I had to kill off one federal agency to save money, without doubt & hesitation, it would be the DEA. These dickheads simply have too much power. Like this is the agency that refuses to move weed out of the Schedule 1 category. Whoever gave them such sweeping powers? It should not be up to them.

There is nothing illegal about naming inexperienced people currently accessing sensitive government data at the behest of Elon Musk. They are: Akash Bobba Edward Coristine Luke Farritor Gautier Cole Killian Gavin Kliger Ethan Shaotran This is a major security breach. SPREAD

Is there a word for when random people show up at a government building and announce that they're in charge

The workers were emailed by a little boy with no legal authority who interns for the richest Nazi in the world. It is an absolutely insane development and the social copy doesn’t come close to conveying it.

Remember to boost *all* footage you see of protests. Absolutely all of it. If there's the perception of protests, there will be more protests. Cover everyone's phone screens with it. It's a call to action

Back to business! #artist #illustrator #oilpainting

...and before the Philly crash.

American Spring

This story is bananas. "A team including current and former employees of Musk assumed command of OPM on Jan. 20 ... They have moved sofa beds onto the fifth floor of the agency's headquarters, which contains the director's office and can only be accessed with a security badge or a security escort."

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

Excited to see some of my old F.A.T Lab browser addon projects in this new show at ZKM. “Browser Art since the Beginnings of the World Wide Web”. zkm.de/en/2025/02/c...

the headline is not “trump blames deadly plane crash on DEI” but “trump seizes on deadly plane crash to attack minorities”

(former heroin addict and apparent steroid user who now looks like a boiled catcher's mitt and sounds like someone who gargles hot tar) "I just want Americans to be healthy!"

The new general counsel for OPM—the office issuing all those deranged memos—is Andrew Kloster, a self-described “raging misogynist” with a public history of racist comments and a temporary restraining order for domestic violence who most recently worked for Matt Gaetz. www.pogo.org/investigatio...

New White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt did her first press briefing today and told a number of demonstrable lies (about condoms for Gaza, the criminal records of undocumented migrants, and more). This is how the New York Times covered it.

Seeing lots of people on here hyping up Deep Seek and telling me how it’s so much better than ChatGPT. Maybe for some tasks, but don’t ask it about history. Here are the contrasting responses I got from both when I asked: What happened at Tiananmen Square in 1989?

The Capitol Breach Cases page is now down, as predicted - that's why it was archived earlier this week. This page linked to over 1200 Jan 6 cases, with charging documents (indictments, statements of fact, sentencing memos, etc.). This material is still on PACER but is also saved as a collection. 1/

"We can torture ourselves by trying to impose mental order on the chaos that is to come, but it is not the best use of our time."

Very interesting view from autocracy expert @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social on why picking a morally flawed man with no management experience to run the world’s biggest bureaucracy has logic for a strongman like Trump

So many good ones…
