You fought for habeas corpus, put it in your constitution, and now you’re just gonna let a game show host take it away? You’re not losing your rights. You’re handing them over.

National Security Agency chief ousted after far-right activist urged his removal Gen. Timothy Haugh was fired Thursday as director of the powerful wiretapping and cyberespionage service, according to U.S. officials.

The firing of one of our top cybersecurity officials at the urging of a known conspiracy theorist is outrageous. We are already facing unprecedented cybersecurity threats and this only makes America more vulnerable.

DOGE Plans to Rebuild SSA Codebase In Months, Risking Benefits and System Collapse Social Security systems contain tens of millions of lines of code written in COBOL, an archaic programming language. Safely rewriting that code would take yearsβ€”DOGE wants it done in months.

SCOOP: DOGE wants to rebuild SSA's codebase in months, risking benefits and system collapse, sources tell me.

The plan is to migrate all systems off COBOL quickly which would likely require the use of generative AI.

Do they realize how old he is? Though I suspect they have plans to keep him propped up while the Project 2025 people run the country, and get him to name a successor. That’s as long as the McDonald’s doesn’t catch up with his arteries, of course.

Please stop saying it saved money until you understand the value of what was cut. They are downsizing, and if the stuff getting cut had real value, its not a saving.

Excellent. Now let’s see if the DOGEbags listen to court orders, and who enforces this if and when they don’t.

Growing up, I was told that the demise of Christianity would be caused by our country rejecting God.

Now I believe it is actually caused by Christians blatantly rejecting the teachings of Jesus for the sake of political power.

This is really the full Trump experience in a nutshell - simultaneously both truly evil actions and absurd incompetence. This buffoonish malevolence seems like as good a reason to call it fascist as any.

In Iowa Senate District 35, Trump won by 21% in November.

Tonight, in a special election to fill what was a GOP-held Senate seat, Dem Mike Zimmer defeated Republican Katie Whittington by a 52-48 margin.

This is a huge deal β€” the flip of a GOP seat to a pro-union, pro-public education Democrat.

Tweet from the White House Press Secretary: β€œThis is NOT a rescission of the federal funding freeze. 

It is simply a rescission of the OMB memo.

Why? To end any confusion created by the court's injunction.

The President's EO's on federal funding remain in full force and effect, and will be rigorously implemented.”

Thanks. This clarifies nothing.
