You don't fire Judge Advocates General unless you plan on issuing unlawful orders. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-f...

Of most concern to the purge going on at all levels of the military is that the Orange King is replacing honorable men and women who follow the laws & constitution. He’s putting in “loyalists” who serve only the King, and have no problem turning the military on US citizens. This is not hyperbole.

What’s your best honest guess on the probability of the Orange King creating the circumstances and declaring a national state of emergency and suspending the 2028 elections? Me: greater than 50%

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Appearing today in The Week:

A quick reminder for the folks who haven't been paying attention: The Russians are the bad guys. The Nazis were the bad guys. NATO is the greatest security alliance in history. The US dissing our allies and aligning with Team Bad Guys makes us less secure and more hated around the world.

The Economist: "America has just tried to grab Ukraine’s vast mineral wealth Team Trump’s shakedown diplomacy" www.economist.com/europe/2025/...

Trump treats diplomacy like a mafia protection racket. He's used to working with mobsters, which is why he likes Putin.

They're pressuring Romania to release rapist sex trafficker Andrew Tate at the same time they're trying to find a way to arrest @AOC who hasn't committed any crimes.

In the end we’ll find that life, including intelligent life, is not just highly probable across this vast universe, but inevitable. The real mystery will be - why? phys.org/news/2025-02...

Hijacking a journal as part of an effort to legitimize antiscience is a time-honored tactic of science deniers. It dates back decades in the arena of climate science as documented in the Hockey Stick & the Climate Wars: cup.columbia.edu/book/the-hoc... #HSCW

Elon Musk’s agenda takes aim at all of us including those who voted for Trump. Right now there are thousands of angry people as far as the eye can see at the treasury wondering who the hell elected Musk President?

The most demoralizing thing about the last year is losing all hope and faith in justice. The concept of justice now seems like a fantasy ... a fairytale. The idea of believing that good will win out over evil seems childish. The most we can hope for now is that the damage won't be irreparable.

Sen Tim Kaine (D-VA) speech about Trump Admin. "buyout" idea for federal workers "He's tricked hundreds of people with that offer. If you accept that offer and resign, he'll stiff you just like he stiffed the contractors. He doesn't have any authority to do this. Do not be fooled by this guy"

Trump just plunged the country into chaos, illegally freezing aid to millions—Medicaid portals went down in all 50 states. Meanwhile, Kristi Noem is cosplaying as ICE, Milley is under attack, and Caroline Kennedy torches RFK Jr. Today’s insanity, all in one place:

From Fox:

If no one stops him, he certainly can. And is.

A January 6 insurrectionist pardoned by Trump is now wanted for child sex solicitation. Andrew Taake, who pleaded guilty to attacking officers on J6, was already facing charges for soliciting sex from an undercover cop posing as a 15-year-old. Texas prosecutors are now seeking his arrest.

I thought the Orange Blob was going to write an executive order demanding the price of eggs come down and bird flu to go away?

Enjoy the last day before tomorrow. Then four years…

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Donald Trump, you’re a disgrace as a human being. While you may have gotten the presidency, you’re still a disgrace. You’re a convicted felon, a pervert, and you treat your allies with disdain while you kiss up to Putin. Anytime, anywhere, Donald—we will take you on.

Something many of us know but still it's useful to have it rigorously established and formalized in this manner:

Coffee is my God and that first sip in the morning is my daily baptism…

A little New Years humor for you. Of course I can't imagine why this would be so.🤷‍♀️ Donald Trump Jr. revealed that he dreaded attending the annual New Year's Eve party at Mar-a-Lago because his father's drunk friends treat him like a "freaking imbecile." www.rawstory.com/donald-trump...

In a March 2016 CNN debate, Trump had this to say: I know the H-1B very well. And it’s something that I frankly use and I shouldn’t be allowed to use it. We shouldn’t have it.… It’s very bad for our workers and it’s unfair for our workers. And we should end it. 1/3 newrepublic.com/article/1897...

Because for MAGAs, only white history matters.

Can we just admit that we NEED immigrants for our economy to run, from agriculture to high tech? We’re a goddamn nation of immigrants, aren’t we? Let’s be proud of our immigrant heritage!

Democrats just helped avert a government shutdown. President Musk and Trump failed to get what they demanded. Republicans threatened to stop paying millions of workers while Democrats once again showed that they’re the only adults in the room.

In case anyone was wondering, the sea ice thickness data shown by Zack below is very bad news for the Arctic and for the planet in general. The planets air conditioning system is breaking down. Eventually we’ll have a virtually ice-free summer Arctic. This is literally and figuratively not cool.

Some reactions to his return to Moscow. He appears to be repeating the basic nuclear this, nuclear that, US, Ukraine, NATO-something-or-other, go boom because Russia big mad. I think that covers it.

People are leaving Twitter because it’s not fun anymore and no one is obligated to be on a platform they don’t enjoy. It’s not rocket science.
