In a blistering statement, the American Bar Association describes "attacks on constitutionally protected birthright citizenship, the dismantling of USAID and the attempts to criminalize" diversity initiatives as "wide-scale affronts to the rule of law itself."

This is correct.
The question is no longer "what will trump do"? The only question now is what will congress do and what will the courts do?
I spoke to former Treasury and OMB officials, and they said Elon Musk accessing government payment systems could give him the power to selectively turn off payments. They described what this really means in very clarifying terms. See below:

We are 11 days into this term. Dems need to figure out how to throw up some serious roadblocks because we have a long way to go.
So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.

Jesus…. This is some eugenics type shit.
A reporter directly asked Trump press secretary if disabled people still have a place in federal jobs and whether they still have protections.

Her answer? “We will be taking a common sense approach”

Please stand with disabled people. Fight for us to maintain jobs, accessibility & the ADA

From a tech point of view, he is literally taking control of the government. This is incredibly dangerous and unstable in the short and long term. Unless Dems get injunctions, this will be horrendous. Mass actions for privacy breaches should follow techcrunch.com/2025/01/31/e...

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.
