If you're going to grovel for money on the back of this horrific recission bill, at least have the decency to blame Republicans instead of "Congress." Democrats didn't vote for this. Democrats aren't taking away your money. Inform the public better if you want donations.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

We need ranked choice voting. Without it, the 2 party system will continue to deliver shit candidates.

Judge says administration can dismantle the Institute of Museum and Library Services A federal judge in Washington, D.C. has denied a request to halt the Trump administration’s further dismantling of an agency that funds and promotes libraries across the country.

I rode my bike to my public library several days a week as a kid and read hundreds of books, sometimes one a day. Books help you formulate new ideas, then create worlds in your mind, they expand your thinking at minimal cost. Another sad day for a terrible president.

I don't hear any of the hardcore 2nd amendment, don't treat on me folks complaining now that it's actually happening.

We don't want, or need, the military in our cities, and we certainly don't need them under the control of the president. Conservatives said for years this is what Obama would do. All they were doing is priming people for this moment when a corrupt authoritarian would actually do it.

Yep. You can spin up a Cassandra cluster in AWS and start benchmarking in 10 minutes.

It's basically a veneer around Packer to build the AMIs and OpenTofu to provision. Could definitely be applied elsewhere.

Trump keeps spreading lies about Social Security.

What he isn't telling you is that he's actively trying to dismantle it — firing thousands of SSA employees and shuttering regional offices.

Why? To pave the way for privatization so Wall Street can gamble with our retirement.

Creating a national reserve of crypto currency is basically a pump and dump handout to Russia and North Korea. They've been mining and stealing crypto for years. Putting a trillion $ into any of them will pump them up, and then these regimes will simply sell them. Your tax dollars at work.

The instruments of national power are diplomatic, informational, military, and economic. Trump and musk have kneecapped three of those and it hasn't even been two months. Leaving NATO would achieve the fourth.

Republicans have the majority, rip apart the govt, and you blame the democrats? This is the exact reason why Republicans have been able to acquire so much power. Never held accountable. Always dems fault.

About 15 years ago I was in Ukraine for 2 or 3 weeks to meet with a remote team. They made me feel welcome, we ate and drank together, and were always incredibly kind to me.
The people of Ukraine deserve peace and freedom, not to be extorted and humiliated on TV.
