This was today, and these guys knew they were going to fire their own employees because, says Trump, they are "Democrat oriented." bsky.app/profile/atru...

Q: How many layoffs have you authorized?

TRUMP: It'll be a lot. And it'll be Democrat-oriented.

RIFs can’t be done without agency leadership so this is RFK Jr extending his purge of CDC scientists to help Vought’s shutdown agenda. Genuine public health risks created by aggrieved men.

And would be an instant national scandal if a Democratic Cabinet Secretary every did it. Two totally different standards applied to two totally different parties. Every day. Every year. Every decade.

A lot of people think abusive behaviour is normal because that’s how they’ve rationalized being abused.

It’s also how they rationalize being abusers.

Seems like they are going after reporters who are women. They hit one w/pepper spray ammo in her car, the WGN reporter and now this.

Hey remember when they decided they weren't even primarily a LE agency? Good times.

“While the president’s authority to grant clemency for federal crimes is virtually unfettered, the power to impose vengeance via prison assignments isn’t clear.”

Actually, the Eighth Amendment to the Constitution prohibits cruel and unusual punishment. It’s in the Bill of Rights. It’s pretty clear.

“I’ve got no problem with gruel.” Under orders from Trump, officials seek to make the life sentences of 37 convicted killers more like a living hell. The men were spared the death penalty by Biden.
Biden Spared 37 Killers From Execution. Trump Ordered Up a Lifetime of Torment.
Even America’s harshest federal prison, where inmates spend 23 hours a day in solitary confinement, was too good, one official said. “I’ve got no problem with gruel.”

If Covid was a hoax, why the fuck did Trump get the vaccine today?

And why go to Walter Reed to get it when he has a full medical staff at The White House?

Something smells fishy…

I'm going to start calling essays like this "odes to whiteness" because the underlying premise is that they are like this because they don't anticipate any social cost to smelling bad.

This one is v. frustrating because it tries to lump in perfumes with the broader (problematic) beauty industry
I’m turning 50 next year. I rarely wear deodorant anymore. Many women I know have stopped, too. We don’t talk about it, but I catch it in the air — a faint musk of onion, goat, curry, mustard, salt, sage, fennel, ozone, and the muddy wet marrow of the earth itself. I’m kind of obsessed with this collective stink: the animal symphony of skin, of women being women, punk and unfiltered, taking up space with their scent. Raw, unapologetic BO. The more I live among it, the more I see it not as a hygiene failure but as a radical act of self-acceptance. It’s not polite, but it’s honest — and that feels hot. Hotter, even, than anything a Guess ad ever promised.

I hope they follow up their "I'm proud to smell bad" essay with "I'm proud to put my phone on speaker in public places" and "I'm proud to double park in urban areas."

It's very striking how clearly they seem to see what's right in front of their faces in way that so many others -- law firm partners, university presidents, members of congress, and on and on -- refuse to.

It may be—for now—a mild form of fascism. Political opponents aren’t being jailed or shot, entire opposition media outlets aren’t being shuttered, and books aren’t being burned.

But from Chicago to Portland, James Comey to Letitia James, and so much else—this is no longer America. trib.al/a0i8hTE
