What could go wrong? 🙄

BREAKING: The Food and Drug Administration is suspending a quality control program for testing milk and other dairy products. The agency is citing reduced capacity. It has 20,000 fewer employees as a result of the DOGE cuts under Trump and Musk.

Two headlines in the New York Times today.

Hegseth shared Yemen strike details in a separate signal chat that included his wife and brother. Cool, cool. Very normal administration we have here

I don’t think a better headline could have been written about what happened yesterday. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Your regular reminder that almost everything Trump is getting away with is not because of presidential strength, but because of congressional weakness and judicial deference. The constitutional tools are already there to fix this, but those who can fix it are refusing to do so.

Donald Trump is deporting legal US residents to a foreign gulag, and he has stated publicly that he is moving on to citizens next. This is a Constitutional crisis. Will a single Republican stand up for our Constitution?

Here you have two sitting presidents both claiming to not have the power to return a man they erroneously deported and detained. All while Trump also floated sending *US citizens* to El Salvador for crimes.

Here he is today, deeply concerned about economic hardship caused by his tariff scheme.

Never in my decade of filing FOIA requests have I gotten a response like this. Customs and Border Protection denies my request, saying "Due to law enforcement sensitivities we can neither confirm nor deny the existence of records." No exemption cited, no name of who wrote this.

White House: we’re going to raise taxes on the richest Americans to cover no tax on tips GOP Congress: the fuck you are The bridge too far, for anyone keeping track, appears to be their rich friends income.

just found out about this online "anti-woke" marketplace that lists local businesses that support "conservative values" -- in other words you can look up which places near you to avoid www.publicsquare.com/marketplace

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

If Biden had ever tried to prevent lawyers and firms representing Jan. 6 clients from entering federal buildings, or pulled the security clearances of lawyers representing Trump, there would have been calls for impeachment THE NEXT DAY. That’s all

“But no one in the wider world can appreciate how stressful it is to confront an executive order like this until one is directed at you.” --Brad Karp. Fuck you, you coward.

“Denmark is not being a good ally” because they just won’t turn over their land? Tough words from Vice President Maybelline

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

If the Supreme Court ultimately agrees with what the gov't is arguing today, that the President has broad Article II powers that would permit it to deport people & there can be no judicial review, then literally no one is safe.

This was always the math - it didn’t need a CBO scoring for people to realize this, but hopefully now they’ll wake up. The GOP is going after Medicaid and Medicare to give their rich friends a tax cut. Full stop.

In today’s hellscape news, the Trump administration is planning to cut 80,000 jobs from the Department of Veterans Affairs. The VA is already short-staffed and wait times are abhorrent. Veterans will die because of this move.

Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.

‘When a hero stands against a clown’ Had a few thousand requests for this over on my Instagram #trump #zelenskyy

Hegseth has ordered the Pentagon to STOP offensive cyber operations against Russia. This is insane. Russia is actively targeting the U.S., and the ability to conduct offensive operations (which was authorized by Trump in 2018!*) was at least one deterrent. Not anymore www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/u...
