GOD DAMN IT GOD DAMN IT

Yesterday morning, with no notice, ImmDef received a stop-work order from the Trump administration cutting off all funding for our legal services program for children. This order impacts more than 85 legal service providers nationally and 26,000 vulnerable children who are facing deportation.

Today ImmDef and other orgs received a subcontractor stop-work order from the U.S. Dept. of the Interior for all activities related to our legal defense programs for unaccompanied children. This slash will deprive 26,000 children of access to legal counsel nationwide. www.immdef.org/blog/urep_pr...

Can we start referring to “DEI” related cuts and EOs as Trump’s racial purity program?

Leaders should be terrified of their own people. Seems there’s not enough of that.

I want to know what’s inside of YOU. Not the LLM you’re using.

in 20 years the modern right has gone from sociopath John Galt fetishists in colonial cosplay to Silicon Valley Vlad Harkonnens who require an earth-eating LLM to show them how to put their underwear on; its no wonder why Andreessen-Horowitz fascism requires 20,000 serfs to every pissbaby mogul

If this doesn't end with Trump and Vance out of office... it doesn't end.

Tomorrow, NY people.
