Nice (if depressing) walk through the stressors the federal government has put schools under.

Glad to see he is back paying attention to his businesses.
“Between 12:19 pm and 3:20 pm Musk fired off 49 posts, reposts, or replies.

That’s an average of one new missive every 3.5 minutes, over a three-hour stretch.”

For my kids, Benji. They still talk about how I forced them to watch that awful video.

For me, Midnight Cowboy. My brother and I didn’t understand ratings etc and were left unsupervised.

Serious question, is there any person in this administration that is fit for their position?
Anyone who has worked on intelligence matters understands the importance of apolitical analysis and speaking truth to power.

In firing intel officials who did just that, Gabbard proved once again that she is unfit for her position.

Socialism is what they called public power. 

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

NYT and Washington Post, put your best reporters on this and place their stories on your front pages. MSNBC, hammer on this—you haven’t been. Democrats, talk about this every day, several times a day. Do not let Trump’s sewer standards jade us.
Trump Just Did the Most Corrupt Thing Any President Has Ever Done
He’s using the White House to get rich from anonymous investors—and it’s hardly even a news story.

Also if you’re someone who has additional information, documents, or emails about DOGE or its agents have *directing* agency actions, please get in touch (on a non-government issued computer or phone)!

NEW: Government officials insist that neither DOGE nor Musk have any real decision-making authority—they merely “advise” or “consult.”

But internal DOJ emails provide the most compelling evidence yet that DOGE is not simply advising—it’s calling the shots.
