On Wednesday I was the first to report Leland Dudek was on the verge of losing his job at the Social Security Administration when he was suddenly promoted to acting commissioner by Elon Musk. Thursday I published a story with more details. I’ll let you guess if I got any credit in this Post story:

The attacks on DEI are a pretext for a much more radical agenda of reversing the gains of the civil rights movement, an objective the Trump administration is pursuing with zeal. A Great Resegregation. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Last week: Correspondent @stevanzetti.bsky.social identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media, and courtroom observation.

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social the poem is "Traveling through the Dark" by William Stafford. The point is not that the driver stops and feels bad; it's that he feels pity for the dead doe and the dying faun, but still shoves them into the ravine to prevent accidents.

Correct. If the birthdate field contains corrupt or mismatched data, it defaults to 1875-05-20, which serves as a flag. May 20, 1875, is the day the international standards and metrics treaty was signed. Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t know how anything works.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

I told the country as an academic Middle East expert not to invade Iraq. If they had listened to me it would have saved several trillion dollars . What return on investment would that have been?

I think he might be our very best poster?

lawyers: your bat signal has been activated

I'm glad that DOGE was able to scrape together enough savings at USAID by cutting funding for food to poor children for Trump to be able to afford the $20 million in enhanced security required to allow him to attend three quarters of the Super Bowl.

Today's Low Quality Ad is for the HOKEEPER Clothing Rack. There are many ways to present a picture of a clothing rack. But there is one best way. This is it. This is objectively the best picture of a clothing rack you will ever see. www.amazon.com/dp/B0DG2MDSY...

As the forces of hatred are on the march, my promise is this: Our trans neighbors will continue to be safe, protected, and welcome in Minnesota.

This potential undercutting of US farmers reminds me of Kathleen Belew's analysis of how the farm crisis in the 1970s created ripe ground for white power groups to recruit ppl to violently hate the federal government. theconversation.com/white-power-...

i'll be blunt, if you are someone who is vocal about the ways that diversity efforts "divide the working class" but silent about the ways that *actual racism and discrimination* divide the working class, then i think you're just an opportunist

the fucking enforcement arm of the federal government is launching a war on integration an effort to push tens of millions of americans to the bottom of an arbitrary hierarchy of value and yeah, it pisses me off to see nominal allies say “oh yeah maybe they have a point”

I'm glad that America is doing real classic end of empire stuff. A king who is visibly losing his mind declaring a war based on a dream he had. Greedy courtiers feuding over access to the treasury. Some looks are timeless.

Are the next 4 years really going to be logging on everyday to sentences like "a 19 year old doge intern called Big Balls has your social security number" because I'm already at capacity for this sort of thing

this 2021 Musk post seems worth revisiting

This is what happens when you ask me to help sanewash the Trump tariffs.

The richest man in the world has taken over the US government and his first order of business is taking revenge for the fall of apartheid in South Africa www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
