We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

Maybe I wasn’t clear about this. I wanted more egg and no plane crash, not many plane crash and no egg.

Murphy: "That's just fancy talk to say, 'we're gonna give money to people who pledge loyalty to Trump, and we're not gonna give money to people who don't pledge loyalty.' Today it may be government contracts, but tomorrow it may be your tax refund."

A tweet from Chris Murphy reads: "An unaccountable billionaire is seizing control of the government. Now he has access to your tax information. Maybe because he wants to decide who gets refunds and who doesn't. Before it's too late, this is the moment for Americans stand up and say: we want our government back." Below the tweet, there is an image of a CNN breaking news segment with the headline: "MUSK TEAM GAINS ACCESS TO SYSTEM THAT WRITES AMERICA'S CHECKS".

I said this after the election and I'll say it again: take up knitting/crocheting. It can be done on the cheap, it's portable, there are millions of free resources to help you learn, and it's useful.

Hi friends!

I just wanted to give a quick update on The Onion’s purchase of InfoWars, which we can’t wait to relaunch as the dumbest website on the internet.

The long and short of it: We won the auction and — you're not going to believe this — the previous InfoWars folks aren't taking it well.

I enjoy your posts very much! Much love from someone who saw the announcement in her Weekly Reader in first grade for a new children’s show coming to PBS in 1969. 🙂

(3/3)
- Limiting State Authority Under the Clean Water Act: Restricted states’ ability to block energy projects, reducing local water quality control.
- Relaxation of Lead and Copper Regulations: Slowed efforts to replace lead service lines, prolonging potential lead exposure.

I’ve spent five hours today just trying to replace the supply lines under the kitchen sink. The cold water one went fine. The hot water one won’t come off because one of the joins is badly corroded.
