DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.

It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

Sheesh it's depressing watching the rubes fall for Trump’s obvious media ploy with Zohran. It shows you how we got here. People are credulous and gullible to the end.

New from me: I talked to CDC staffers about the new vaccines and autism page. They said things like:

“The best way I can put it is it feels like we’re on a hijacked airplane.”

“I think people are starting to see that we can’t fulfill our mission here.”

They’ve put a 45-day statute of limitations on swastikas. A two-month old swastika apparently has more legal protections in the Coast Guard than a Coastie with a shave waiver.

“Seems like a sure-fire business opportunity.” Why? Outlets with millions of views and proper funding are dying before our eyes, budgets are vanishing, and no one knows how another Google update will disrupt the industry as-is.

So few people understand what it takes to build an outlet from scratch.
People keep saying this and let me tell you, as one of way too many freelancers without a steady job, it is annoying!
