Oh leave him alone. He’s harmless. I’m a Tesla owner and it’s a great car. I’m also an Elon hater and hope he dies with the dotard in a cyber truck joy ride. 

Interestingly I just got an employee survey with a ton of DEI questions… very right leaning management but maybe because it’s private?  I have a feeling there’s a lot of re-branding of DEI right now…

Been there, done that.  During a government shutdown during his first term, Trump forced Joshua Tree National Park to remain open with reduced staff.  This resulted in lots of damage to the fragile trees in the park.

According to a former park superintendent, "What’s happened to our park in the last 34 days is irreparable for the next 200 to 300 years".

DotARd not letting AP reporters into press briefings because they are still calling it the Gulf of Mexico. 

Seriously, all reporters should just boycott all doTArd press briefings. He would starve without the attention. Its not like they say anything that's not a lie anyway.

So this new republican budget doesn't include no tax on social security, doesn't include no tax on tips, and doesn't include no tax on overtime. Hmmm.

NEW: After Trump’s inauguration, the University of Michigan School of Nursing axed all its DEI programs.

Or so it appeared—until we dug deeper.

Turns out the school just renamed its DEI office the office of “community culture.” And all its DEI programs are still in effect.🧵

The main page for the school’s diversity office was taken down entirely, replaced with a new page for "Community Culture” that declares that "culture is at the heart of everything we do." None of the revised pages use the terms "diversity" or "DEI."

You've wanted the exact outcome we're experiencing for more than a few years.

The rest of us, on the other hand, warned and worked AGAINST this outcome.  This is NOT what we wanted, at all.  But....now that we the people have enthusiastically chosen it, so be it.  The only way out of this path is counting on the psychology of pain aversion - bolstered by actual experience of said pain - to do its work.  We picked a path where the only options are 1) continuous, long-term low to moderate level suffering, and continuing social decline, or 2) short term brutal suffering, so harsh that it prompts us to change course.  Given that circumstance....hell yes we root for the one that will lead to us changing course.

I mean, human society took a "burn it all down" approach in the 30s and 40s.  We learned a lot, and many things were improved afterwards.  Was it worth the price, and wouldn't it have been better to have avoided learning those lessons the hard way?

There were so many things that led to what happened in the 30’s and 40’s that it’s takes books being written about all of the different events. The Washington Naval Treaty of 1921 was a big middle finger to Japan. They felt they were relegated to being under the thumb of the United States and Britain in the Far East. That and many other things set them on their self-destruction tour from 1931-1945.

Emil Bove. There's a red dirt real American from the heartland you could have a beer with on the front porch and just shoot the shit with.

Weirdly enough, I know or knew a lawyer in Dallas named Emil.  Not pronounced ay-meel, but emmel, like emmett with an L. Crusty sumbitch, not exactly country, but fairly Texan.

Guy has a fairly standard DOJ/white collar resume, and, was involved in investigation and prosecution of 1/6 defendants.  https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/trumps-feared-doj-enforcer-secret-investigated-jan-6-rcna191796

While it would take a special kind of asshole to represent Trump, I am a bit shocked that he would be such a complete and compromised toady.

What's going to happen here, I suspect, is that they are going to run out all the decent trial lawyers at DOJ and be left with a bunch of incompetent ideologues.

Expect the federal conviction rate to plummet over the next four years.

Yeah, although I was thinking more in terms of criminal prosecutions.  I think it's easier to be an incompetent ideologue buffoon in a civil setting than criminal prosecution.

But of course USDOJ is really almost primarily a civil institution, like the Texas AG.

One thing, though.  Historically, the AGs office has been a decent landing place for those without great grades from the lower tier law schools (note that I am not saying they're shitty lawyers, just not Order of the Coif from UT).  Therefore, I suspect that the AGs office still has a lot of apolitical civil servants, despite its politics.

USDOJ has never been a landing place for anyone.  Always competitive and requiring a certain desire to do that kind of work at reduced salaries, because almost everyone at DOJ could be gainfully employed elsewhere at probably double the salary, or more.

Or the government will just start influencing/bribing judges and juries to give them the verdict they want, because who is gonna punish them?

120 people were laid off from Catholic Charities in Houston yesterday due to federal funding being withheld. Houston has a very large refugee population so this will absolutely be felt in the community.

Shit like this is why I hate this country. Yeah, we fucking remember. We're being led by people with no compass whatsoever, they are just for what the other side is against and make shit up as they go. Absolutely fucking pathetic.

May be an image of 1 person and text that says 'Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy Bring back the presidentia fitness test in schools. Serve healthier food in the cafeteria & start physical education earlier in school. The best way to save on health costs in the long run is to create a healthier population in the first place. Mike Ne... @MikeNellis Yeah, no shit shitMichelle Obama tried to do this and Republicans called her a radical communist.'
