Vought at OMB and CFPB, Patel at FBI and AFT, all the layoffs in the federal government stretching people thin. Waiting for a skit mirrored on the classic from In Living Color about how many jobs these guys hold www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEnQ...

General Brown is a brilliant, amazing leader. I worked at the Air Staff for three years and it was known that he read everything the staff wrote for him. He believes if an analyst took the time to write it, it’s his responsibility to read it. Very few generals do this.

The New York Yankees will allow their players to have facial hair this season. The Yanks should have a special night to commemorate the famous House of David baseball team. mashable.com/feature/hous... Babe Ruth once played with House of David. Not so much with that celibate thing though #Yankees

Amazing that it has come to this. Just when Trump/Musk are demoralizing the US military and stifling the recruitment of necessary personnel.

If you look at all the firings across the government over the last two weeks it's frequently been taken as a given that any black or woman official or officer is either a DEI hire or supports DEI and is summarily fired on that basis. Seems like the same model here.

Another #FridayNightMassacre. Now at the Pentagon. Trump fired a distinguished African American Joint Chiefs Chairman and the highest ranking woman in the Navy. Military recruitment will surely suffer. Trump weakens US military defense. Only Russian and Chinese dictators benefit.

The enormous backlash against Trump/Musk in 2026 will put Florida in the mix for Democrats. They must start now uniting behind the best possible candidate for Governor to defeat MAGA flunky Byron Donalds. #bluewave

When New York needs revenue to modernize mass transit and for the social safety net and when the state faces federal government cutbacks, it has an easy way to raise more funds sitting in its back pocket www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...?

“Zelensky survived a dozen Russian assassination attempts including a special forces assault on his presidential complex.He stood up to Trump. I’m sure he’ll be deeply impressed to learn our Congressional Republicans live as terrified hostages of their own party leader.” ~ @michaeldweiss.bsky.social

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

Michael leaves us with questions: (1) What weapons do Trump's lawyers have to delay a trial? i.e. discovery as of right with possible interlocutory appeals on the scope of discovery; motions to dismiss the entire case on a variety of grounds, and (2) Trump no longer needs Musk to do his dirty work?

"Law and order" in the Trump era: if you bow down to the head of the U.S. government, he may help you - whether you're awaiting trial for sex crimes in Europe or doing time in the USA for physically assaulting police.

The first rule of negotiating is you do not negotiate against yourself or your client. Trump and Hegseth publicly gave away Ukrainian territory and NATO security protection for nothing in return. That is the opposite of the art of the deal.
