Among the many amazing/disgraceful things about America 2025 is how completely Republicans in Congress have neutered themselves.
President Trump on Wednesday signed a memorandum expanding his administration’s authority to repurpose unspent federal funds to pay members of the military during the government shutdown, escalating his challenge to the authority of Congress on spending matters.
Trump Signs Memo Expanding His Authority to Spend Federal Money
The president gave Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth wide authority to repurpose funds to pay members of the military without approval from Congress, which has the sole constitutional authority to decide federal spending.

The Nobel Prizes, 5 of 6 having so far gone to US based scientists, are a reminder of why we must stand up for science against this horrid administration. Here are some great Scientist Activists to follow.

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

Mets will be better without him, imo. This is a loser’s attitude to essentially say I’m better than this team on the last day of the season. Really damages his legacy with the club. He could’ve waited until November to opt out.
NEWS: Mets All-Star 1B Pete Alonso said Sunday he plans to opt out of his contract and will enter free agency shortly after New York missed the postseason.

Good news: The largest landlord in the US has agreed to stop using anticompetitive algorithms to raise rents. I pushed for this. Carried through by DOJ Antitrust in two administrations and by state AGs.
We must now pass my bill to stop this conduct across the economy.

It’s hard to know at this point if Republican congressmen are actually ignorant or are just deliberately fanning the flames of ignorance as a political tactic. Whichever it is, it’s profoundly damaging to the country. It would take 30 seconds to look up the FOMC and how it actually works.
