Trump’s biggest corruption yet

A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
There comes a point when a man must refuse to answer to his leader if he is also to answer to his own conscience. -Hartley Shawcross, barrister, politician, and prosecutor at the Nuremberg War Crimes tribunal (4 Feb 1902-2003)
Irony is dead in this moment along with common sense. Trump who squawked “but her emails” incessantly, let Musk (unelected/not a govt employee) send his crew of kids in to review classified information & plug devices of unknown origin into the government computer system, compromising everything.

oh wait, Donny can’t call up the Aviation Safety Committee — because right now, there’s no one at the other end to pick up the phone. Donny can’t get the answers he’s demanding because there’s no one left in government with the expertise to figure out what the fuck just happened. the stupid shit fired them all.

Repubs have gerrymandered US congress seats such that 6 of WI’s 8 seats in the House went to Repubs. Hope for redistricting is to elect Judge Susan Crawford elected April 1. [Sen] Tammy [Baldwin] asks for support of Judge Crawford.

Might be behind a paywall. From the article: “In a hearing held three days after Trump’s EO, Federal District Court judge, John C. Coughenour, sided at least for the moment with four states that sued. “This is a blatantly unconstitutional order,” he said.
