@thebandcake.bsky.social now I can’t get out of my car because never there is on the radio! ❤️

Security expert Bruce Schneier & digital ethicist Davi Ottenheimer: “The U.S. government has experienced what may be the most consequential security breach in its history.” And: “This is beyond politics — this is a matter of national security.” (via @anildash.com) [foreignpolicy.com]

A search is underway in Alaska after a small plane with 10 people on board never arrived in Nome when scheduled, officials say.

Flu is so bad right now that schools across the country are closing. Schools around the U.S. are closing due to surges of flu and other illnesses which are sickening students and staff. 📌At least 41 states are currently reporting "very high" or "high" influenza-like illness activity

Senator Schiff (as Dems filibuster the nomination of Project 2025 author Russ Vought): “The moment you say it’s ok to violate the law to shut down USAID you have said it is ok to violate the law and shut down anything.”

"If the 'DOGE' endeavor is working, why can’t the White House just tell the truth about what it's doing?" www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Who needs nuclear secrets in government when the only real secrets in government are: Who is doing things at DOGE? What is DOGE doing? And How many laws is DOGE going to break?

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

America has been taken hostage by a convicted criminal who is supposed to be sitting behind bars.

Apparently, allowing Americans to file their tax returns for free is a bad thing. A big gift to the Big Tax lobby and a big middle finger to Americans.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: So here’s how it’s going to go down—this is going to be very rough. But the big wake-up call is for our American friends. For example, Kentucky—the number one purchaser of Kentucky spirits in the world is Canada, and all our provinces have just pulled it off the shelves.

Welcome to the New Gilded Age! Modern-day robber barons have infiltrated our government agencies and taken control of their computer systems to enrich themselves further; all at the expense of hardworking Americans. Is this what you voted for?

Absolutely brutal scroll on Fox.

Tariffs will shut down North American auto production within a week, the industry warns. Canada’s auto sector exported $51 billion worth of vehicles in 2023 and 93% of them went to the U.S. Within days, the entire industry could shut down.

Americans are about to learn some economics.

We knew it!

A case of tuberculosis has been confirmed at a Michigan school. Just as the Senate considers an avowed anti-vaxxer to lead our nation’s health agencies.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

🚨WATCH: This powerful video will move you. No matter what comes next, we’ll face it together 💙

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Trump's still in his second week and planes are literally falling from the sky! A military plane in Alaska, then 67 dead in the Washington DC disaster, and now a lear jet goes down in Philadelphia. Plus we now know there've been several near misses since President Musk's slash-and-burn at FAA.

A Learjet isn't exactly a "small plane" as initial reports indicated in the Philadelphia crash. Small planes do crash quite often, business class jets not so much. And right on the heels of one of the worst aviation disasters in 40 years in this country. Something isn't right.

I swear I thought this first tweet from Trump was fake. Wtf indeed.

There is no tragedy so great that Donald Trump won't use it to prove he's an unfeeling sociopath.

MAGA blamed President Biden for the Baltimore Bridge collapse even though a Cargo ship crashed into it, but they don’t want orange felon blamed for a mid-air collision even though he placed a hiring freeze on air traffic controllers and gutted an air safety advisory committee.🤔

Currently no survivors of the D.C. crash have been found. There are a number of confirmed fatalities. 64 total souls involved in the incident. This is just horrifying—a tragedy beyond measure.

the first fatal commercial plane crash in 16 years happened just days after Trump froze hiring of air traffic controllers that were already stretched thin
