"Reforms" Shaping Up To Be Another Kneeling Kente Cloth
Moment
"Body cams" vague demands of "accountability," but no attempt to cut DHS's obscene budget is a recipe for status quo maintenance.

Trump bought over $1 million in SpaceX debt days before unveiling space policy
The purchase, revealed in his latest financial disclosure, involved a firm directly affected by his administration’s actions — and led by presidential ally Elon Musk.

People forget that J6 was successful. Everyone who participated was let out of jail and the guy who perpetrated it is President again. There were no consequences. They have plenty of incentive to do a much bigger and worse version.

Lafayette Square isn't "a historic protest site." It's a fucking park. And it's packed on nice days. Calling it a protest site is White House framing. They're closing a popular public park to create a presidential palace Saddam Hussein would love.

Another very 👀 tidbit from this week’s roundup:
A proposal that would have required FedEx to produce a report on how it manages the potential legal risks of shipping abortion pills in light of the Comstock Act failed at the company’s annual shareholder meeting. The proposal was introduced by a Catholic “values investing” firm called IWP Capital, and authored by none other than Christian nationalist law firm Alliance Defending Freedom, a leading proponent of the theory that Comstock bans mailing abortion pills, if not all medical devices used in abortion care.

Just a reminder: Tillis persuaded the woman Hegseth allegedly raped to come forward with her story, and told her that if she did, it would sink the nomination. She did. At great risk to herself. Tillis then cast the deciding vote for Hegseth. Because he’s a goddamned coward.

Due to traffic congestion, that journey can currently take up to 2.5 hours. @BoringCompany can reduce that to a consistent <30 mins.
