            This image captures a person holding up a sign prominently displaying a bold, impactful message: "WE AREN'T BEING GOVERNED WE'RE BEING LOOTED TRUMP 2.0." The sign is simple yet striking, with large black uppercase letters creating a sense of urgency and emphasis. The individual holding the sign is only partially visible, with their eyes just above the bottom edge of the sign, wearing a gray hat, which adds a human element without distracting from the message.

The content of the sign conveys a strong political statement, reflecting a critical view of governance, implying exploitation or corruption under a leadership described as "TRUMP 2.0," suggesting a continuation or resurgence of policies or political climate associated with Donald Trump. The phrase "being looted" evokes imagery of theft and injustice, framing the government's actions as harmful and illegitimate to the people.

Artistically, the simplicity of the black text on a white background framed by a brown board helps focus attention purely on the message without additional visual distractions. This kind of protest imagery is common in activist contexts where the power of the message is amplified by clarity and directness.

Culturally, this sign captures a moment of political dissent and could be seen as a reaction to perceived failures or grievances related to leadership and governance. The reference to "TRUMP 2.0" hints at political tensions, especially in contexts where Trump's influence or figures associated with him remain significant.

Overall, the image is powerful for its directness, emotionally charged language, and the fact that it visually unites an individual's voice with a broader socio-political critique.

NEW: Judge Walker partially grants Letitia James's motion related to Lindsey Halligan's Signal exchange.

The judge will require DOJ to preserve any communicationsโ€”including communications with the mediaโ€”about the case.

But he won't require the government to maintain a log of its media contacts.

Trump's 90,000-Square-Foot Ballroom Plan Puzzles the Experts His planned space would be much larger than luxury banquet halls in the US capital and a departure from traditional presidential style.

People focus on the sloppy drawings weโ€™ve seen of the Epstein Ballroom, but this article lays out the subtler ways it appears to be technically incompetent.

When Cory Doctorow coined the term enshittification, he was not just finding a funner way to say โ€œthings are getting worse.โ€ He was making a specific diagnosis about the state of the digital world and how it is affecting all of our lives (and not for the better).

Live updates: Trump administration must fund SNAP payments during the shutdown, judges rule Two federal judges ruled on Friday that President Donald Trumpโ€™s administration must continue to fund SNAP, the nationโ€™s biggest food aid program, during the government shutdown.

๐ŸšจItโ€™s completely insane that it takes a court order to prevent the Trump regime from starving people.

Insanity is the โ€œnormโ€ in an administration full of psychotic idiots.

Dozens of States Sue Trump Administration Over Planned Food Stamp Cuts

The Trump administration has a rainy day fund that will keep SNAP from expiring in November. Trump is refusing to use it.

Funding SNAP isn't a choice he can make. It's a legal obligation. USDA must release the funds and stop punishing the American people.

Handelsstreit mit China: Donald Trump hat sich verkalkuliert Peking verringert seit Jahren seine Abhรคngigkeiten und baut Druckpunkte auf. Ob die USA mit dieser Entschlossenheit mithalten kรถnnen, ist fraglich.

We're now a half year into Trump's latest trade war with China, and it's safe to call this war as a total victory for China. What did Trump get wrong? Or was it his object to help China and hurt America from the outset? www.sueddeutsche.de/meinung/chin...
