Double-plus-ungood. It’s not just the particular terms or even the self-censorship by federal employees that’s scary. It’s the cultivation of an atmosphere in which language itself is a threat, your own tongue may be your enemy.

Sickly cows come from California. The latest USDA data says 74% of Cali's dairy herds have bird flu. This comes at a time when USDA funding is still frozen and CDC data on HPAI has "gone missing," amid mass layoffs and freezes in the latter agency.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

It's known to almost everyone at this point most members of Congress from both parties hate Trump's guts. It's not a secret that they are all feckless cowards. That is the frame you should take with this situation and exploit it ruthlessly. Make them cowards in your favor.

If "they" reactivate a retired LTG (3-Star) and make him CJCS, even though his record doesn't meet the service requirements to hold the position. They're going to be stepping on a LOT of toes. Trump will guarantee himself a military hostile to him. This could actually work out.

Hey uh if you're an artist and you go around commenting on the first chapters of fanfics with copypasta that pretends to have read the author's work but is really disguised as self-promotion for your art, maybe don't do that? I respect the grind, but not that way.

Trump just made a civilian the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The Chairman is legally required to be an active-duty military officer. Trump is scared of our officers, knowing full well they will absolutely deny an illegal order!

Folks this is why it literally doesn't matter if you have a Republican member of congress or a Democratic one. They all need votes to stay in power. And everyone is getting fleeced right now. This goes well beyond partisan politics.

I have identified at least two dozen pardoned Capitol Rioters that are currently attending CPAC in Washington, D.C. —including members of far right extremists groups such as the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers. Updates on Pardon Tracker's interactive visualization: embed.kumu.io/39b5108ec4a0...

Professor Eddie S. Glaude: “The irony, he holds a Black History Month Reception as he’s issued all these executive orders around DEI. Touts the importance of Black folk to the history of the country mentioning Tiger Woods, Kobe guess that’s what we’re reduced to, athletics entertainment I suppose.”
