To fix this, you'd have to fix the Constitution, the checks and balances has not worked at all.

You'll have to fix the Supreme court too.

You'll also have to remove every last Trump appointee everywhere in administration.

You'll need to rebuild every organisation he took down AND safeguard them.

I'd argue that this is one of many lesser known signs that it was time to get out of the country, that we don't hear about but still happened in Germany in the years between 1933 and 1938. By 1938 it was too late, the control was absolute.

Yesterday I was told that the class I’m scheduled to teach this month, Confronting Oppression & Injustice, is no longer part of our curriculum. This is a required class yet there was no discussion, no faculty vote, just an email saying the class no longer exists. This is what it’s like in Texas now.

"PRIDE GOETH BEFORE THE FALL"

Unless you live in Atlanta, where Pride is this weekend, right in the middle of the Fall.

Happy Pride, Atlanta!

Side note: I think my favorite thing in the world right now is the realization that everyone knows that AI hallucinates all day long, and yet vibe coders can't seem to figure out that AI is probably hallucinating dogsh** code all day long as well. lol

Who are the AI experts, again? lol

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

RFK Jr. just gutted America’s disease defense—firing over 1,000 CDC staff overnight. Outbreak tracking, data collection, and response teams—gone. This isn’t reform, it’s sabotage. The next pandemic won’t need to start abroad—it’ll start right here, thanks to him.

But it was easy to predict back in January.

And for 10 long months Democrat Governors have apparently not even made a contingency plan for that happening.

This is why I'm not sure Trump wont succeed in turning the US into a full blown military dictatorship.

And long before the 2026 elections.

Gavin Newsom: “What more evidence of authoritarianism do you need? These guys aren’t screwing around. We can no longer screw around. It’s all at stake. People need to wake up. We can’t continue to play by the old set of rules.“

A 15 year old boy with autism went missing earlier this week

He was selling fruit with his family in Springbranch when he disappeared

They filed a missing person’s report & begged the public to help find him

Turns out he was in a Houston ICE detention facility

They kidnapped a disabled child!

Which is why I constantly campaign to bring back the expression "The Village Idiot".

The Village Idiot in any one place was always the racist fool who spewed the dumbest conspiracy theories and was constantly drunk or high.

We shunned them. We gave them the silent treatment. And it was good.

It's amazing to think that there was a time before social media when, if you were a gobshite, everybody ignored you. There was no way to make money saying stupid, provocative things because nobody wanted anything to do with you.

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Hello?

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.
