States Say in Lawsuit That Donald Trump Violated Constitution’s Basic Precepts Nineteen attorneys general, including New York’s Letitia James, accused the president of failing to faithfully execute the nation’s laws when he let Mr. Musk comb through federal computer systems.

Letitia James of New York, joined by 18 other Democratic state attorneys general, said in a lawsuit that when President Trump gave Elon Musk the run of government computer systems, he breached protections enshrined in the Constitution and β€œfailed to faithfully execute the laws enacted by Congress.”

I keep thinking about how at the end of Doctor Strangelove, the worlds richest most powerful people nonchalantly settle underground to wait out the total destruction of mankind they just caused.

I have to say that the fact that the people destroying the country are such fucking morons kind of stings.

After 11 years, my time at HuffPost is coming to an end tomorrow.

Last week, I learned HuffPost would be ending its dedicated coverage of energy and climate change.

So, I took a buyout.

DOGE Staffer Resigns Over Racist Posts A staffer for Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency whose access to U.S. Treasury payment systems was approved by a federal judge on Thursday has links to a deleted social-media account that...

I linked DOGE staffer Marko Elez to a deleted X account that advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act, backed a β€œeugenic immigration policy,” and wrote, β€œYou could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity."

He just resigned. www.wsj.com/tech/doge-st...

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.
