I can't get over how stupid all of this is. None of this needs to happen.

After accessing nearly half of the statesβ full voter rolls, DOJ Civil Rights Division head Harmeet Dhillon said the department has only found βdozensβ of instances of noncitizen voting illegitimately.
The finding, contrary to GOP narratives, affirms that voter fraud is extremely rare.
If you canβt think for yourself you canβt rebel. If you become reliant on an external brain to think for you, you will soon need it desperately. If you do not find art important, no art can move you to action. A docile, listless, addicted population is the dream of an authoritarian.
The least shocking thing ever is learning DOGE used chatGPT to identify which grants were βDEI.β It is critical to understand that LLMs are an authoritarian technology meant to win the millennia-long war on critical thinking and art. They are a right wing wet dream.
It appears that Trump's OMB illegally sold off NCAR's space weather program to the for-profit company Lynker in January, before NSF publicly requested bids in a Dear Colleague Letter with a deadline of tomorrow.
Accountability? That's supposed to come from the voters. And as I wrote in my last book, the voters won't do it:
Trump has tremendous difficulty with principled people (even if as with the Iranian regime, the principles are bad). He assumes everyone is a transactional fraud like him. Works well with rich Americans and poorly with idealists of any stripe
I hate this Jedi Mind Trick explanation of how lenders magically convinced people who make X dollars a month that they could afford X + a mortgage. I've signed multiple mortgages, and you don't need to be a savvy consumer to look at the bottom line and say "That's more than I make."
ICE now has four warehouses for its βmegaβ detention centers, each which would individually be the largest prison in the country if filled to capacity.

#BREAKING Federal prosecutors in Chicago drop charges against Catherine Sharp and Joselyn Walsh, two of the so-called "Broadview Six" ICE protesters who were indicted for conspiracy.
This company should be nationalized, torn apart, and sold back to the industry as spare parts.
We would rather this than admit that Human knowledge and ALL the people who produce it matter
The reason choads like Duffy are afraid of public transit isnβt crime - itβs the fear of having to be in close proximity to people who donβt look like themselves. Law firm partners and investment bankers ride the same subway as home health care aides and construction workers.
the stink of gender resentment coming off Silicon Valley has been obvious for a while. these men hate women because they hate being told no.
I have suspected for awhile that we are already seeing the violence that runs downstream of (mostly) privileged (mostly) men with gambling addictions. And it will only get worse.
Everything will, in the end, have been about crypto and fossil fuels and we are mostly just casualties. Sigh.
βI see no sign that they knew what they were doing. It seemed to be just literally bomb, bomb, bomb. There didnβt seem to be a plan for how you were going to get that particular material. If there is one, it hasnβt emerged.β
All throughout history hate takes precedence, you see Michigan today and itβs not just reserved for Jewish people.

The genius businessman strikes again
Still no censure of Tommy Tuberville, Randy Fine, or Andy Ogles, who are openly promoting hate against Muslims while the US is bombing Iran, killing the Ayatollah, and people like Lindsey Graham are calling it a "religious war" DURING RAMADAN.
How do you think this all ends, folks?
Duffy is afraid of his daughter sees a sweet Black Family, or a nice queer person , or a Latina minding her business , or an INTERRACIAL COUPLE
Or anything that indicates life without him outside of his world in any direction he can not control
He will lose power
He fears that DEEPLY and Truly
Lawyer: You don't regret that people might have lost income?
Cavanaugh (DOGE): No, I think it was more important to reduce the federal deficit from two trillion dollars to close to zero.
Lawyer: Did you reduce the federal deficit?
Cavanaugh: No, we didn't.
I'll help 'em pack
The USPS has quietly been making changes that will have a big impact for people who mail their tax returns and ballots in this consequential election year. I've got questions about how these changes will hurt vote-by-mail states like Oregon this November.
This is white privilege in its young form.
NOW!
"Palantir CEO Alex Karp says his AI technology will lessen the power of βhighly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democratβ while increasing the power of working-class men."
Just saying it right out loud now.
