Donald Trump’s “great federal-grant freeze of 2025 is over, but don’t expect it to be gone for good,” writes @dgraham.bsky.social. “It’s part of a carefully thought-out program of grabbing power for the executive branch.”
There Is a Strategy Behind the Chaos
The drama over federal-grant spending this week isn’t mere disorganization; it’s part of a broader effort to remake the government from the inside.

Edward Kelley, a Jan. 6 defendant, says President Trump's order to dismiss cases should also cover his conviction in Tennessee for conspiracy to murder the FBI agents who investigated him.

Good! I keep seeing people getting judgy about preemptive pardons. How about you mind your business? Not everyone has seven figures to defend themselves against a vengeful idiot with the full power of the U.S. Government. If I were offered a pardon, I’d absolutely take it.
Preemptive pardons for General Milley, Dr. Fauci, members of the j6 committee including Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, as well as Capitol/DC police who testified about what happened on J6.

Leaving us undefended is a strategy that benefits America's enemies
Nearly an hour after Trump’s inauguration, current and former Pentagon officials say they don’t know who is currently in charge of the Defense Department. It is unclear to them who is serving as Acting Secretary until Pete Hegseth gets confirmed, or whether one has even been appointed.

"We can disagree with each other and still be friends" does not apply if you're antisemitic or transphobic. Unfortunately, too many people on the left--people that I once thought were friends and allies--have shown themselves over the last year to be antisemitic and cut me out of their lives.

It is truly about who tells a better story — or really a story people want to hear and makes them see what they believe rather than believe what they see.
More jobs have been created under Biden than during the full terms of Trump, Obama, or Bush 43. @danprimack.bsky.social www.axios.com/2025/01/10/i...
