None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Despite the strong opposition by @govpritzker.illinois.gov, @annecaprara.bsky.social even IL can't protect all of its citizens from MAGA mayhem. I'm sickened by this action but understand the institutional funding dynamics. The human harm is meaningless to too many Americans. The price of eggs.

Obviously did it on purpose to provoke a reaction …

Surprised he talked to NBC because his quote sounds like he only watches the propaganda channels.

And if they don’t comply, the judge will hold his breath.

Mr Garcia, I have drafted an appropriate response for you. You're welcome.

This is an excellent template and should be disseminated widely

The betting is open on who will win the handshake wrestle between Macron and Trump.

This completes the actual politization of the Federal Justice Department. There will be no rule of law at the federal level for the next four years. The lies we've been getting from the MAGA GOP is PROJECTION. Projection = Falsely accusing your opposition of doing something you're actually doing.

Obligatory groveling ...

In a normal time, our governmental leaders would be assessing systems and services provided by Musk companies to ensure that they can't be shut off by the whims of a kook.

Is the price of eggs worth their future in an insecure world?

Ordinary people concerned about sharing information. Maybe they need to be alarmed that Trump and Musk's X minions are accessing federal databases mining for private information.

Thank you for the data analysis which objectively confirms what astute observers have noted. Sadly, as @radiofreetom.bsky.social has so aptly written about, expert analysis doesn't move the needle with too much of our society nowadays.

Not exactly paying attention to the papers.

Trump's con games depend on lazy journalists and toady propagandists. This is your lazy reporter example. The EO asks for recommendations on reducing costs - which does nothing for folks now. Recommendations that will be as concrete as the ever-promised health plan.

MAGA GOP says believe our lies over the data.

American Godfather - Trump ...

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.

More backseat punditry feeding our angst about MAGA GOP destruction of the country's values and democracy but provides little in the way of constructive solutions. Dems are speaking out but not in ways this one or that one likes or feels effective. If you have a magic wand WAVE IT! FOCUS ON MAGA.

Father’s honor and respected service to the country is mocked by son’s support for the MAGA GOP destruction of American democracy.

It's a civil violation in MAGA America until and if the courts stand up. Punishments are already being imposed on people and institutions.
