Everyone who has paid into Social Security: 1. Create a Login.Gov account. 2. Go to the Social Security page and log in. 3. Do screen caps of your Earnings Record. 4. Because it may not be there tomorrow, thanks to Elon.

Trump tried to bury this story on a Friday night, but it’s extremely important: He’s planning to take land on the border controlled by the Dept. of Interior and sign it over to Dept. of Defense so migrants “would have trespassed on a military installation,” resulting in harsher punishment.

Hours ago, @politico.com revealed that DOGE is working with DHS on automating mass deportation efforts — likely explaining why many US citizens, green card holders, and even a Canadian (in Canada) got threatening emails last night terminating “your parole” and telling them to leave the US in 7 days.

Very good advice here for NIH and universities too. The Trump/MAGA lust for power can’t be satiated. If you do what they want, they just take more until they crush you. When they threaten you, the only way out is to fight. Find power and use it.

Tough language from JPMorgan tonight: “.. we view the full implementation of these policies as a substantial macro economic shock not currently incorporated in our forecasts. .. these policies, if sustained, would likely push the US and global economy into recession this year.”

That the DC police are doing Trump’s bidding is frightening

It is unfortunate that most Americans will not know or care about this issue until Trump persuades the Supreme Court to abolish agency independence, gains absolute power over the Federal Reserve, and crashes the economy. But that’s the direction in which we are ineluctably heading.

I’ve studied “los desaparecidos” (the disappeared) from Argentina, Chile, Peru, Guatemala, and Honduras. The regimes start with the students and the activists. They move onto the journalists and the lawyers. They target the priests and the nuns. Next, the grandmothers seeking the lost. Then, you.

It is urgent to realize that the case in front of Boasberg is a golden strategic opportunity. Legally, and I bet politically. Their legal position is terrible, the underlying facts look worse every day, and their attacks on the judge are batshit. Don't shrink from this fight, embrace it.
