Now that Wall Street correctly believes, in light of his tariffs, that Trump is insane, is it really going to look with favor upon the law firms that shamelessly caved to him?

#AcademicSky As reported by a UCLA prof: the faculty senate at Rutgers took up the attached mutual defense resolution. Their unions (full time faculty, grad workers, post docs + adjunct faculty) voted to endorse it. Michigan & Northwestern looking into it too.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.

Mother jones actually broke this story. The Washington Post failed to mention that, and in fact, took credit for the scoop.

As often as people have been ripped off or scammed, why would ANYONE in their right mind think it's a good idea to eliminate the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau?

Any politician who thinks it's OK needs to fucking resign.

"The user appeared to have a special dislike for Indian software engineers. β€œ99% of Indian H1Bs will be replaced by slightly smarter LLMs, they’re going back don’t worry guys,” the user posted in December.

It’s official: Elon Musk’s staffers have now illegally obtained classified information from the USAID office.

An Elon Musk staffer misused the U.S. Marshals Service by falsely invoking their authority to intimidate. USAID security personnel were threatened with action by the federal Marshals Service.

No one's blaming Democrats for causing this crisis, but yes, many of them are failing to meet this moment.

One Democratic senator could bring the chamber to a halt. House Dems can go to fed agencies being gutted by Musk with cameras in tow. Governors can push back. State AGs can bring lawsuits.

Anyone who has ever been in the military knows that if it happens on your watch, you own it. It was YOUR responsibility. No Commanding Officer wants to hear jack shit about what the guy on the watch before you did if the event in question happened on YOUR watch. So, thank you, DJT, for $7 a dz eggs.

Inside 45 hours of chaos: The brief life and quick death of Trump’s federal spending freeze | CNN Politics The Trump administration’s biggest swing at radically reshaping federal spending lasted just under 45 hours.

β€œThe reversal raised a fresh question of whether Trump’s second term will revive questions of competenceβ€”even among the president’s admirersβ€”about the administration’s ability to govern or adequately explain its decisions.”
