The only two things I am sure about in life: 1) Life is a team sport, so be a good team player so you can play on a good team. 2) Life is weird, and then it gets weirder.

The fact that electronic voting systems can be bought and sold in this way, while their inner workings remain a proprietary secret kept from the public, is a wild conflict of interest and a massive threat to the security and integrity of American elections.

Lest you think that calling Congress doesn’t matter, GA’s QAnon-supporting Congresswoman MTG discussed the ACA on CNN this morning, noting how she “tracks all the calls coming into our office.” Kudos to CNN for bringing GOP leaders on the air (that MTG is a leader is not their fault).

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

I know Trump and his minions all have sneering contempt for kids with special needs, but trust me when I say that their parents will absolutely fucking destroy anyone who messes with the special education supports to which they are entitled by law.

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.

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages
Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.
