I Should Have Seen This Coming

When David Brooks joined the conservative movement in the 1980s, there were two types of people: those who cared earnestly about ideas, and those who wanted only to shock the left. The reactionary fringe has won, Brooks writes.

Why Trump Says He’s β€˜Not Joking’ About a Third Term The prospect of smashing imagined limits on his power gives him an obvious thrill.

The Constitution is clear that Donald Trump cannot run for a third term as president, Jonathan Chait writes. "But as Trump has repeatedly demonstrated, questions of the law and the Constitution ultimately reduce to power struggles."

There’s a massive information purge happening at The Pentagon. Removing articles, images & information related to the Holocaust, 9/11, Sexual Abuse & Suicide Prevention have all been scrubbed.

This Administration isn’t fixing anything… They’re making it simply disappear, like it never happened.

Trump is 'not joking' about third term, though Constitution says he can't serve In remarks to NBC News, Trump also said "there are methods which you could do it." Trump would need either a two-thirds vote in Congress or a constitutional convention to serve a third term.

www.npr.org/2025/03/30/g...

So, that’s actually not allowed…The Constitution isn’t optional, sir. This isn’t a reality show β€” it’s reality. Two terms, that’s it.

The People Carrying Out Musk’s Plans at DOGE (Gift Article) The Times identified more than 50 people within the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, a group formed by Elon Musk that in a short few weeks has radically upended federal agencies.

Every opportunity I get, I share this article. It doesn’t have email or number but gives what kind of people they gathered. Please read and remember their names and profiles: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Seems to me that Mike Johnson should be the last politician in the country to slash Medicaid. His state has the second highest rate of Medicaid use, 32.4%, after NM. The federal government pays 68% of traditional Medicaid's costs, compared to 50% for NY and CA.

Republicans aren’t hiding anything. Their priorities are written in black and white: trillions of dollars in tax breaks to the rich, while making savage cuts to Medicaid, housing, nutrition and education. The reconciliation bill will make the rich even richer and the poor poorer.
