First IRS, Now DOGE Busts Its Way Into the Social Security Administration

Old friend just laid off by USDA, 1 mos short of his probationary period as senior researcher. Brilliant person who left a tenured faculty position several yrs ago to join USDA. Bright early-career researchers also being laid off. USDA is terminating a generation of highly-qualified scientists.

I’m walking along here right now and the thought occurred to me, β€œWhat if I spend the next four years in places like this? Off tv, social media and any news. Completely oblivious to what’s going on.”

Whoever said it would be a cold day in hell before Trump became president again turned out to be right. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/01/...

Rep. Jim Himes sounds off on Mike Johnson removing Turner from the House Intelligence Committee. "This place used to be considered a check and a balance on the power of the president. That's why we exist...the message just went out that if you check this president, you're fired" Fascism in action.

Now that's a headline.

My one wish for the inauguration is that there is a gift bag under the seats of Bezos, Zuck, Elon etc, with a single, embroidered , padded knee pad Need to protect themselves when they are on bended knee, kissing the ring πŸ€·πŸ˜†

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin gets a standing ovation at his farewell ceremony.

Our top story, from @byjustinmiller.bsky.social: Brooke Rollins to Elon Musk, meet a rogue's gallery of Lone Star megadonors, think tankers, and politicians poised to play big roles in Trump’s comeback tour.

In other words, Mike Turner did the right thing for our country a few times, so Trump ordered his removal. We obviously have a traitor moving into the White House.

What an honor to have one of my pieces make this list -- especially alongside @stevanzetti.bsky.social, @josephinelee.bsky.social, @francescadnunz.bsky.social, and other @texasobserver.org writers I admire! www.texasobserver.org/most-read-st...
