I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

Trump’s “Freedom Cities” are weird, but let's go deeper. Peter Thiel & other pro-Trump tech billionaires are OBSESSED with building new corporate-run territories -- “network states.” They want to change how the entire planet is governed. #NetworkState www.thenerdreich.com/trumps-weird...

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025. This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

If only Luke Farritor were still interning at SpaceX rather than firing lifetime experts from govt, I'm sure Elon might have avoided that embarrassing crash.

Here’s a nice story, I re-met this gentleman in Appleton WI last night, he was my opponents tracker in 2010, would come and record me, but was always polite. We got along well, despite being on opposite sides. Now we’re both on the same side!

They’re not trying to improve anything. They’re gutting things and making it more difficult for Americans to have access to services. They’re Russian assets.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Brilliant but devastating editorial in the Financial Times. “In the past 10 days, he [Trump] has all but incinerated 80 years of postwar American leadership. If you are not at the table, you are on the menu. America has turned.”

Most of us have used Global Positioning System (GPS) for navigation & we can thank Gladys West for creating the foundation for GPS. She used her mathematical & programming expertise to invent an accurate model of the Earth. She was inducted into the US Air Force Hall of Fame.

The CFPB is one of the American people’s best defenses against waste, fraud, and abuse. Demolishing it will, of course, lead to more waste, fraud, and abuse.

A thing to understand here is that Wired + Teen Vogue is Condé Nast — this is the Newhouse family being basically the only good billionaire publishers. Other than them, it’s the indies of the new alt media and stalwarts like ProPublica and then basically crickets.
