Excellent work.
Good morning. After you've read about why renaming the DOD is the sign of silly and unserious nation, you can read my newest about why the world won't take Trump and America seriously anymore:

“Canada is killing our people.” I mean, for fuck’s sake, JD.
He isn’t even a bully. He’s the kid who doesn’t have the guts to bully anyone himself, so he waits until the real bullies are done, then walks over to take a parting shot.

Trumpists will continue to be furious at any dissent no matter how much power they steal. That’s because the administration is premised on pathological insecurity. They’re shitty people, they know it, and they will never stop resenting being seen as shitty people.

In retrospect, Trump was right. The country has indeed been taken over by an immigrant who was here illegally and doesn’t share our values.

Just a reminder that Musk couldn’t get a top level security clearance. And he was under investigation for violating the terms of the clearance he did have. Now he has your Social Security number, your tax returns, and is unilaterally deciding who the government does and does not pay.

Apartheid billionaire broligarch assumes control of the United States government.
Musk has not been elected to any public office. He has not been confirmed by the Senate to any office. Yet right now he seems to be the most powerful official in the federal government and seemingly more important than the president himself. www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

An unelected, erratic, ketamine-addled billionaire with far right/white nationalist views has taken control of the personnel and payment systems of the United States government. Not an exaggeration, not hyperbole.
