The name "Alligator Alcatraz" reminds us that America is currently run by adults who are like malicious, giggling children using magnifying glasses to burn ants.

It’s one thing to say they want to deport 20 million people, it’s even one thing to go nuts brazenly doing whatever you can as the executive branch to make it happen, but the fact that they’re going to give ICE an additional 45B shows how committed they are to seeing this through.

“Rome is the mob. He’ll conjure magic for them, and they’ll be distracted. He’ll take their lives, and he’ll take their freedom. And still they’ll roar. The beating heart of Rome is not the marble of the Senate, it’s the sand of the Colosseum. He’ll bring them death — and they will love him for it.”

Blank Canvas

A blank canvas is much easier to control.

There are no lines to stay within and no image to complete.

You can design your perfect scene, adhering only to your self esteem.

For no one will know you’ve crossed over the line if it was never there to begin with.

Too often joy and fulfillment take a backseat to fear and the avoidance of monsters you only ever hear about.

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes.

The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds.

This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen

Phenomenal summary of the major things that happened on day 18 of Trump’s presidency.

“Donald Trump’s dramatic and vile dismantling of #USAID came as USAID’s inspector general was conducting an investigation involving Musk’s company, #Starlink. In three steps, Trump’s administration killed the investigation that was sure to embarrass Elon’s company.”

Living in Florida, I am used to obsessively checking NOAA’s website during hurricane season. The idea we may be relatively or completely blind during hurricanes is terrifying.
Now NOAA has been seized — just like the Department of Treasury, USAID, and Department of Education.

Elon Musk and his DOGE gang are at it again — storming past security and demanding access to IT systems. Insisting on access to confidential information.

Increasingly emboldened staffers of…

The U.S. failed to rebuild Iraq & Afghanistan—now Trump wants to “develop” Gaza after erasing its people? Colonialism with extra steps is still colonialism. #GazaCrisis #HistoryRepeats

Trump’s proposal for the U.S. to “take over” Gaza raises serious ethical and legal concerns. Forcibly relocating 2M Palestinians would violate international law, risk instability in the region, and set a dangerous precedent for U.S. interventionism. A bad idea wrapped in a worse idea. #Gaza #Trump
