"Quiet, Piggy" and "Things Happen" are the distillation of Trump to his very essence. One manifests his vileness and misogyny. The other his dangerous amorality. They are a window into where his soul would be if he had one.

1. Trump is pushing forward with his plans to create a "Crypto Strategic Reserve."

No one has bothered to explain why diverting government resources into crypto has ANY STRATEGIC BENEFIT FOR THE UNITED STATES.

The only benefit is for people who are current investors in crypto.

It's a grift.
Strategic corruption reserve
President Trump is hawking a memecoin and collecting most of the revenue from the sale of a separate coin from a company called World Liberty Financial.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

It's a coup.
The armed individual who blocked senators from entering federal property bears the insignia of "Triple Canopy", which merged with Blackwater in 2014.

This is a mercenary paramilitary guard for Musk and his minions. *Anyone wearing this insignia should be considered extremely dangerous.*

Elon Musk’s Team Now Has Access to Treasury’s Payments System

Musk asked to access the Treasury system that pays out federal benefits.

One of three things is up here:

1) rampant theft
2) crushing the poor and needy
3) all of the above
It's hard not to see what Elon Musk is doing as a soft coup. The world's richest dude is basically trying to take over the US government t.co/osw3wN4Taz

<whispers> DEI is just another word for democracy.

Democracy is diverse.
Democracy is equality.
Democracy is inclusive.

Every attack on “DEI” is actually an attack on democracy.

BREAKING: Amazon is closing its facilities in Quebec and cutting more than 1,700 jobs.

The moves comes after workers in Quebec successfully formed the first Canadian union at the company last year.

The workers were expecting Amazon to make a contract offer this month.

People say Tramp has no plan. Of course he has a plan!
His plan is to become a billionaire while committing vengeance on all the people who his paranoid lizard brain insists wrongly attacked him. That is all. The rest is fungible nonsense & circus performances for his cult members.
"Trump barely pretends to understand the broad outlines, much less the nuances, of his own agenda. Pressed on actual issues, he flatters himself and talks about how great he’s going to make everything. But he offers few details, and when he does, they're conspiracy theories and lies."
Trump's Time interview provides a sobering reminder
He's staggeringly unfit. Always has been. Always will be.

The GOP consistently & purposely opposes democracy & thwarts the will of the people.

This is their goal. Privatize everything.

And by “privatize” we mean steer billions to themselves and their friends, ending programs that serve those with the least under the guise of “efficiency”.

Rural areas will suffer. Prices will rise.

A big part of my job raising young men was paying attention to the right-wing media that was always trying to get its claws into my kids. Their games and podcasts and YouTube accounts would skew right within minutes. A trained algorithm. The right continuously radicalizes young white men.
