Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

New — USAID staff received an email just a few minutes ago letting them know HQ would be closed to all personnel Monday. It’s likely some employees will miss the overnight email, show up and be turned away. It was sent by Gavin Kliger, one of the young guys at DOGE doing Musk’s bidding.

It would be very cool if we could all agree to delink the questions of "could any alternate strategy or messaging have won the 2024 election" from "what will help us win elections going forward." The ham-handed efforts to kludge these two things together are getting increasingly silly.

People who escape burning buildings stay cool.They look for any possible exit. The one's who don't do that don't survive. While it's important to be aware of the mortal danger of Trump 2.0 it is more important to stay calm and force open the exits. Focus on the ideas not the man.

If Trump wants to deport undocumented migrants, they will still need a hearing before an immigration judge. The next available final hearing date, based on current backlog of 1,478,623 asylum cases pending, is in 2029—after Trump has left office. They haven’t though this through. Shocking.
