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.

Russia’s worsening economic climate, growing budget deficit, bleak forecasts, and now selling off its gold reserves, all point to a Kremlin growing desperate. Suddenly we’re handed a 28-point ‘peace plan’ with neither Ukraine nor Europe included.

Coincidence?

Twelve years ago today, Ukrainians began the Revolution of Dignity. Our fight for freedom continues to this day.

And today, more than ever, we must remind the world: we will not accept capitulation — no matter who tries to force it on us.

Good morning. I've got a banger new post out today that develops a new method for placing voters on the left-right ideological spectrum, and adds a new, "non-ideological"/affordability axis to usual way we chart & think about US voters (esp swing voters). www.gelliottmorris.com/p/not-just-l...
Not just left vs right: Most voters think about affordability and material wellbeing, not in ideological terms
Most voters want a party that emphasizes cost of living issues and makes the world a better place. Few Americans think in solidly ideologically terms. "Moderates" are mostly non-ideological.
