If you were wondering if there is a word to describe how the United States is currently being governed, why, yes, there is: kakistocracy!

The last time I remember someone being called the king of New York it was John Gotti and he died in prison, so, you know, fingers crossed.

That was when they suspended the Constitution. They said it would be temporary. There wasn't even any rioting in the streets. People stayed home at night, watching television, looking for some direction. There wasn't even an enemy you could put your finger on. Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid's Tale

This is a reminder that no one can convince Trump voters to no longer support Trump, better than Trump can.

Want to know what a federal funding freeze does? It takes money from families that just lost their home in a wildfire. It takes resources away from vets. It leaves 72M Americans without access to healthcare. Trump, Elon, & their billionaire buddies laugh their way to the bank while Americans suffer.

During the campaign, Elon Musk promised a voluntary-retirement program for federal workers that would pay them for 2 years. The plan just came out and—no surprise—he was lying. It’s 9 months of pay maximum. Elon. Will. Always. Lie. Believe anything he says and you’re the fool.
