It’s surreal how fast the United States has fallen into a dictatorial regime.
Checks and balances are gone, the president disappears innocent people into foreign prison camps, words get banned, and the Overton window shifts at light speed.
I honestly wonder these days when they will come for me.

On today’s episode of “He’s Tearing This S**t Up”—Trump plans to dismantle NOAA, shutting down climate research and weather labs.
In Texas, that means fewer hurricane warnings, less drought data, & more risk to our communities.

The FTC has halted its lawsuit accusing OptumRX, CVS, and Express Scripts of breaking the law by inflating insulin prices.
Trump illegally fired the two Democratic members of the commission, and now these corporations are going to get away with price gauging insulin.

There are RULES for gov’t documents—who has them, sees them, keeps them, where they’re kept—because they’re a record of gov’t business.
Not open to all—but containing the doings & ACCOUNTABILITY of what our gov’t does.
The Nat’l Archives stores much of that vital data.

Republicans and DOGE are attacking public broadcasting, claiming it's "wasteful" and promotes an "agenda."
But spending on public broadcasting is just 0.01% of the federal budget — and funding has bipartisan support.
This is part of Trump's bigger war on an educated public.
