A teen DOGE staffer recently given access to government systems worked at a startup known for hiring convicted hackers. Someone using a Telegram handle associated with him also solicited a cyberattack-for-hire service in 2022. All raising questions about his vetting. www.wired.com/story/edward...

ABC News reported Marco Rubio has been acting as head of the National Archives for weeks. This is news to everyone at the National Archives, including, apparently, the current head of NARA:

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections.

Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

Less than 24 hours after the call last night, folks already showing up at Tillis' in-state offices to tell him to vote against Vought.

If you see this and think, "Hey that doesn't look hard - I could do that." You're right. You could do this. You should do this.
Had a great turnout calling on Thom Tillis to stand up for North Carolinians, thank you for the tools @leahgreenberg.bsky.social @ezralevin.bsky.social! We had 3 local media outlets join us, will post links when stories are up.

Trump accomplished nothing with his trade war threat. He was talked down like a petulant toddler by the cooler heads of Claudia Sheinbaum and Justin Trudeau. They prioritized averting economic catastrophe above political noise and allowed Trump to think it was his idea. That's what happened.

Well played, President Claudia Sheinbaum, for committing troops already at the border since 2021, knowing perfectly well President Man Baby would have no idea and take it as a win.

Removing this from its original context today so as to avoid turning it into a dunk, but for the thousandth time:

The word "till" in the sense of "until" predates the word "until" by a century and has been in regular use for a millennium, give or take.

It's not an abbreviation; it's a word.

Black American history feels more important this month. Remembering all the ways in which past & present black defenders of this democracy put their blood & tears into our nation holds more purpose today than only informative. Black history helps us remember *why* America is great.
