Third in line for the presidency, can marshal the votes of the bicameral congressional majority to pass just about any bill.

“Helpless”

Oh, this is very cool — assume I can install via BRAT? Do wish Obsidian also had iOS Widget support. I have also used @bearnotesapp.bsky.social and they have a lovely random note widget (with the ability to target a specific tag). This has come in wildly handy in resurfacing notes on mobile.

Best of luck. Have never had a problem with Obsidian Sync.

Protests

I'd really like better coverage of protest numbers from yesterday. I'm seeing estimates of 1 to 5 million, but then news headlines that say "thousands protest across America." Please update with your city info if you have a published estimate: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Trump tried to illegally remove the head of the FEC and she told him she's not leaving until it's done legally. This is an abhorrent headline from Bloomberg. It's disinformation.

The ordinary questions you might ask: Is Elon Musk a government employee? Are his lieutenants? Does he personally hold a security clearance and do his “lieutenants”? Have they all undergone a background check? Are they subject to foreign influence? Have they ever done a sieg heil on stage?

Uh, I use @bearnotesapp.bsky.social and == is the method I use for highlights.
