The Trump admin has shut down the CIA’s World Factbook, a country reference that for six decades has provided data on birth and death rates, major exports, and more. Long used by government officials and by researchers, educators, and journalists, the database was taken offline today.

This isn’t about lawlessness. It’s about a president throwing a tantrum because a judge followed the law.

But here’s the twist: the eight men at the center of this weren’t even covered by the paused injunction. Judge Murphy had already issued a separate order protecting them weeks earlier. So when the government asked to deport them anyway, he said no, and Trump threw a fit.

Another tantrum.
Trump is now accusing a federal judge of “lawless defiance” because the judge refused to greenlight deporting eight migrants to South Sudan, a country they’ve never lived in, without a chance to argue they’d face torture.

Like we said yesterday: speak out and you’re fired. The Trump administration has made it clear, if you report wrongdoing, you’ll be fired. A senior Justice Department official, Emil Bove III, told staff he was willing to ignore court orders to push Trump’s deportation agenda.

Congress didn’t just lose its power it gave it away. On war, trade, and policy, lawmakers have willingly let the executive branch rule unchecked.

But it’s not over yet. Provisions like the 10-year ban on state AI regulation and the forced sell-off of public lands are still in the bill. Keep spreading the word. Keep pushing back. This isn’t budget reform.

They’re going to try to make you feel insane for opposing this war. They’ll ignore protests and downplay any opposition. They’ll try to strongarm you into submission.
They did it with Iraq and they’ll do it again.
And then a few years later they’ll pretend they were with you all along.

Progressives get steamrolled all the time in Congress. We are an outnumbered bloc, especially on matters of defense. Shouldn’t be hard.
They know this isn’t “lefty” opposition. It is BROAD opposition from the American people across the board. The numbers show that. That’s why they’re pushing it.

With fewer protections and harsher reviews, workers become more disposable, more silent, and easier to replace. This is about control, not efficiency.

By artificially lowering performance ratings across the board, agencies can more easily justify removals. It sets a trap turn yesterday’s “high performer” into today’s “underperformer,” and suddenly, long-serving public servants find themselves on shaky ground.

By the way, the US striking Iran’s nuclear facilities and infrastructure gives Russia the green light to strike Ukraine’s nuclear facilities & infrastructure. This is another reason it’s forbidden under international law. Trump is escalating danger everywhere.
