Here’s a good model for responding to this dipshit’s letters:

DOGE By The Numbers theonion.com/doge-by...

NEW: Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%. https://propub.li/43487Tj

This man is zooted into the next dimension

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

A reporter for Politico writes an article primarily about how she never sees any Democrats on Twitter/X anymore. She never for a second questions whether she should be getting most of her political information from a website owned and operated by the administration and designed to manipulate her.

Another way the dictatorship might kill you. This is from a friend who is a retired air traffic controller.

This is a program for teenagers with serious disabilities who are finishing high school and transitioning to their next steps in life. Trump just axed it, effective immediately, in the middle of the night, with no notice.

Musk now calling for people at 60 Minutes to go to prison.

this is really fucking bad. what the fuck.

If you claim to be a leader but are too scared to lead, fine -- sit down and let someone else take your place. It is easy to be bold when there is no threat. Now is a time for courage. www.cnn.com/2025/02/16/p...

The White House bans the AP indefinitely over the use of ‘Gulf of Mexico’ www.cnn.com/2025/02/14/m...

Attributed to Napoleon, who ended democracy in French, this quote was also used by Anders Breivik, the far-right anti-immigrant terrorist who murdered 77 people

Where law ends, tyranny begins.

NEW: At least three more DOJ Public Integrity Unit senior officials have resigned after meeting with Emil Bove on the Eric Adams case. Five in Public Integrity overall. That’s six officials who resigned, triple the number that happened during the Saturday Night Massacre.

One silver lining I hope comes from this is that ... all this ... is that it pushes law profs to move away from teaching in a way that too often (strongly) suggests that "the law" is almost entirely what is written in statutes and opinions, not how those charged w enforcement choose to follow them.

A quick search of Cotton’s accounts show that the first time he posted a single word critical of USAID was 5 days ago, despite serving in the Senate for 10 years and the House before that.

An unelected South African has taken control of the US Treasury and is deciding to stop payments on American obligations, in violation of numerous court orders, and admits in the Oval Office that he has done so upon incorrect information, while the President sits impotently behind the Resolute Desk.
