Texas is preparing emergency resources for wildfires and floods. The Texas National Guard should be THERE — not in Illinois.

We stand ready to support their return home so they are best positioned for helping Texans respond to any natural disasters.
Abbott activates emergency resources ahead of growing wildfire threat, flood risk in Texas
With expected growing wildfire danger across Texas and the potential for a flood risk this weekend, Gov. Greg Abbott is activating more state emergency response resources Friday.

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.

Dems floated a narrow bill to fund the military, which can’t move because the House isn’t in session. Meanwhile, DoD is now going to spend funds not appropriated by Congress to ensure military paychecks continue.

POTUS now both commands and provisions the military. Unconstitutional and SO dangerous
The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News.
A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC
News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.

“We can give $20 billion to Argentina but we can’t afford the CDC’s measles experts” is a hell of an argument

Historians sometimes say that when societies are descending into fascism, it can be hard for the people to notice it in real time. Well, historians of the future, I’m here to tell you: We are noticing. Millions of us are noticing. And we are horrified and enraged.

From Chicago to Portland, James Comey to Letitia James, and so much else—this is no longer America.

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

The Trump Regime has been wildly successful.

No, I’m not joking.

Their goal, stated by the now Senate-confirmed OMB Director Russell Vought, HAS BEEN ACHIEVED.

The stated goal was to put civil servants “in trauma.” Project 2025 said it out loud.

A producer and editor for WGN-TV was violently forced to the ground this morning by two Border Patrol agents, before having her hands cuffed behind her back, during an ICE action in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood.

Debbie Brockman has worked for the local television station since 2011.

This is intentional. It’s in Project 2025. They want to break every aspect of our government and privatize the functions so billionaires can profit. It’s just more of making rich people richer. Making robber barons fashionable again. Think Hunger Games.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

And tariffs have devastated our farmers because China has now gone to Argentina for their soybeans leaving our farmers holding rotting crops with no buyers. This regime is finally seeing that the old adage “you reap what you sow” is true.

But we can’t hire more air traffic controllers or upgrade their systems to modern technology because why? And NOAA can’t staff properly to predict hurricanes and flash floods to save lives because why again? Big corporations and billionaires need tax breaks?

[the Digital Command Centre is
staffed 24/7, w personnel redundancies built in to make sure someone’s always watching]

…and people worry about vegan propaganda 😑 (aka, animal rights activists exposing the truth of the violent, environmental disaster that is the livestock industry)
Screenshot of a post by the guardian, showing a photograph of a NASA-like control room, with caption:

The beef industry has developed a “Digital Command Centre” that tracks media outlets $ social media for more than 200 #beef related topics. Hosted in Denver in a space that looks like a military operation, it’s staffed 24 hours a day 7 days a week, w personnel redundancies built in to make sure someone’s always watching.

Donald Trump just got a COVID booster at Walter Reed, per the White House physician.

Let’s be clear this is the same guy who downplayed the virus, mocked masks, and turned lifesaving vaccines into a political wedge that cost hundreds of thousands of lives.
