NEW: Meet the 22-Year-Old Trump’s Team Picked to Lead Terrorism Prevention One year out of college and with no apparent national security expertise, Thomas Fugate is the Department of Homeland Security official tasked with overseeing the government’s main hub for combating violent extremism.

“.. Upon receiving notice that it would be replaced with a new AI system, [Anthropic’s] Opus 4 will try to advocate for its continued existence through ethical pleas before it resorts to blackmail once it determines it is out of options.” @nbcnews.com www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

WSJ: BLS “told outside economists this week that a hiring freeze at the agency was forcing the survey to cut back on the number of businesses where it checks prices.” 🤡 @wsj.com www.wsj.com/economy/cpi-...

The Trump administration is trying to block politically inconvenient government data Tell them they can fuck right off www.gelliottmorris.com/p/the-trump-...

🤡

Taylor Swift getting her masters back on the same day that Elon Musk got a black eye really feels like the timeline is self-correcting

WSJ EDITORIAL BOARD: “.. The Trump EOs are an abuse of executive power that isn’t justified under any fair reading of the Constitution. “.. he would be wise to cut his losses before he goes zero for nine at the Supreme Court.” @wsj.com www.wsj.com/opinion/rich...

This happened because of you. You protested at TeslaTakedowns and made his name and his company’s product reviled. You protested outside federal agencies slated for DOGE cuts. You barred doors, protected data. You sued and won. You WORE HIM OUT. Don’t let them spin it any other way.

Federal workers are being indiscriminately fired – and they know firsthand what’s at stake, not just for their own lives, but for Americans who rely on vital federal services.   We held a press conference with SW Ohioans so they could speak out and share their stories. 🧵🎥👇🏼

Yup.

lol this is patently ridiculous, almost Inception levels of not giving an independent journalist credit. Subscribe to The Handbasket: www.thehandbasket.co

Hell hath frozen over. At Trump’s cabinet meeting, there were MAGA hats at every seat and the most enthusiastic ass kissing ever by grown ass adults. The fact that it was too much for Coulter is concerning.

Host: You could call and get Abrego Garcia back. Trump: I could Host: But the Supreme Court has ordered you to facilitate his release. Trump: I'm not the one making this decision Host: You're the president!

Lowest since April 2020. 🇺🇸 @cnbc.com

Trump's first 100 days in office can by summed up by just this one chart. This is the consensus estimate for GDP growth in 2025 among 79 economists surveyed by Bloomberg. As you can see, forecasted growth has collapsed:

Hey Paul Weiss associates—meet your new pro bono clients. It’s ok, the Skadden associates are getting the coal companies.

With each 4-year-old cancer victim deported to Honduras, the glorious socialist revolution draws closer! by Susan Sarandon

Leaving MAGA tales are stunning. No one comes around like you'd expect. "Now that I was sober, I started thinking rationally. I thought, 'Trump doesn’t know you, & the fact that you’re even thinking about his feelings proves you have an unhealthy obsession.'" open.substack.com/pub/virginia...

Trump Gets Brutal “F” Grade in Devastating Poll on First 100 Days #Trump

TELSEY begins tracking price increases over the past week. Some highlights: * Abercrombie jeans: up 33% * Amazon Echo: up 38.5% * Target / Barbie doll: up 42.9%

When does the winning start?

1. Clay Jackson, a Texas lawyer, provided basic legal advice to an immigrant family fearing deportation Then, two officers visited him at his home, accusing him of "obstructing an ongoing immigration investigation" Then, after speaking publicly, he was fired from his job at a Fortune 500 company

RIP Leonard Zeskind, whose book about the rise of white nationalism was just purged by the U.S. Naval Academy. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/24/u...

IDEA: Stop covering politics like its a fucking sporting event. The GOP spending cuts don't provide an "opening" for Democrats to attack. They are either going to harm people or not. Journalism is supposed to be about informing people.

Felon. Fraud. Liar. Wannabe Dictator. Loser. And now, Bumbler. www.wsj.com/opinion/is-t...

The Dallas Fed survey basically just rains fire at this point. 🔥

I feel like we need to keep saying this because it’s so insane: This is a legal U.S. resident who has been detained for over a month now for his political opinions.

REMINDER: Social Security has a fraud rate of 0.00625%, which is far lower than private sector retirement programs.
