He is admitting that he doesn’t want lawyers to stop him from breaking the law. No one would stop him from issuing lawful orders, so this has to be about unlawful ones.

When the wreckage and dust of what these people are doing to our country has settled and the people have finally had enough to throw these jackals out of office, we will never forget the people who enabled it, despite their protestations they weren’t willing accomplices. Never.

The lead prosecutor on the Adams investigation - Hagan Scotten - resigns from SDNY. “I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion [to dismiss Adams charges]. But it was never going to me.” www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

McConnell arguably saved Trump's butt by not voting to convict Trump in his second impeachment and pushing a bogus argument against a guilty vote. This is how Trump pays him back. All other Republicans should take note. Your cult leader will eat your face in a moment's notice.

Trump just suspended enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, a key anti-bribery law signed by Carter in 1977. For 50 years, it stopped corporations from bribing foreign officials. Now, Trump is letting corruption run wild.

Good. CFPB was created by Congress to protect consumers. Vought's plan is to ensure its employees do not fulfill that mission.

You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

Donald Trump tried to illegally shut down funding for programs that millions of people rely on. Community health centers, Head Start programs, and charities are still having trouble accessing funds. Meanwhile, the taxpayers are paying for Trump's trip to the Super Bowl.

This is a great thread. If you've managed complex data systems that need the ability to model the state of the data at a point in time, you understand how difficult this all is. These chucklefucks look at the data for an afternoon and think they've got it all figured out and can do better

It was always apparent but now it's increasingly undeniable that all these 20-something DOGE employees were chosen not in spite of inadequate vetting but because they would not pass vetting. Trump & Musk chose the people who seemed the most willing to commit illegal acts on their behalf.

Trump last July: These guys are the radical Right - Project 2025 - I don’t know what the hell it is. They read some of the things in that and it’s some pretty extreme stuff. But I don’t know anything about it.

Trump sold tariffs as fairer and more prosperous alternative to income tax. Except taxes haven't gone down at all, and won't until some sort of tax bill is passed. So for a while at least, maybe forever, you'll just be paying more for the same stuff you once paid less for.

This should be 25th amendment level conduct. The president ordered water to be released from a random dam in California nowhere near the wildfires and then claimed it would help. That’s literally Mad King behavior.

A clarification: If one is hiring for merit, the broadest pool of people to hire from is the most desirable. So including a wide range of people from different ethnic and gender groups in the hiring pool, and then as hires, is the best way to achieve merit.
