Are liberals really aware of how much of a wedge issue the public land sale is? Even deeply consevative westerners are furious. Seems like something dems should be putting more of a spotlight on.

Most transparent(ly fascist) administration ever.
Holy hell. The second half of the video shows FBI agents forcing Senator Padilla to the ground and handcuffing him.

The Georgist Louis Post became a focal point for the first red scare when he dismissed charges against immigrants slated for deportation because of their radical politics. His observations about shallow "pagan patriots" wrapping themselves in the flag remain sadly relevant today.

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States
Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...
A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data
A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

Oh hey, I found some waste, fraud and abuse
The U.S. has spent $40 million to jail about 400 migrants at Guantanamo Bay
Early costs of the enterprise emerged over the weekend along with a statement from five senators who toured the base Friday and urged the Trump administration to “immediately cease this misguided mission.”

If Biden had forgotten he had signed an EO the NYTimes and Fox News would be running leading stories ok Bidens declined cognitive capacity
wait is he confessing that he doesn't even sign these EOs himself
Doocy: The judge wants to know why the proclamation was signed in the dark
Trump: I don’t know when it was signed. I didn’t sign it. Other people handled it.

This is worthy of Kafka
A Hmong American woman who has lived in the Milwaukee area since she was 8 months old was deported last week to Laos, a country she has never visited, and says she is stranded in a rooming house surrounded by military guards. www.jsonline.com/story/news/l...
Milwaukee-area woman deported to Laos though she's never been there, doesn't speak the language
As Donald Trump pushes the mass deportation of immigrants, Yang believes she is one of the first Hmong Americans to be deported to Laos recently.
