Elon Musk is where he is because he spent almost $300 million on the election--which would have been illegal in 2008. Citizens United got us here. New York's public financing program shows another way. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/ana...

The U.S. government has experienced what may be the most consequential security breach in its history—not through a sophisticated cyberattack or an act of foreign espionage, but through official orders by a billionaire with a poorly defined government role, Bruce Schneier and Davi Ottenheimer write.

A gift to Hedge Fund and corporate landlords. Iowa has just theoretically made tenancy "at will." Landlords are no longer required to give a 30-day eviction notice. It's now just 72 hours. The inequality gap widens. #USDemocracy dailyiowan.com/2025/02/05/i...

DOGE is reportedly threatening NOAA with massive staff and budget cuts. NOAA houses the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center, which produce forecasts and warn people about storms. This attack on public safety is ripped straight from the pages of Project 2025.

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

It's really appalling that things are happening -- like firing career Department of Education officials because they attended a diversity conference -- that remind me of what I've read about Mao's mid-1960s Cultural Revolution in China, a humanitarian disaster we don't talk about nearly enough

Wow, that was fast. Irving Energy, company that provides propane/fuel oil customers in New England, says it will pass on the full 10% tariff cost to all their customers immediately (reposting with fixed figure - meant to say 10%, not 30%)

Bernie Sanders: "We are living in an unprecedented moment in American history. We are looking at a rapid growth of oligarchy. We are looking at a rapid growth of authoritarianism. And I fear we're looking at a rapid growth of kleptocracy as well."

I think I have finally figured out the tariffs thing. Eggs aren't going to get any cheaper but they will seem cheaper once everything else gets wildly more expensive.

A new era of government censorship has begun. It started with the silencing of scientific speech, when the admin blocked release of research on bird flu. But MAGA has also cracked down on other wrongthink—on race, geography (!), and of course Trump himself www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
