In a private discussion today this came up: “We need the January 6th Commission hearings, for DOGE.” One could do a lot with NIH and NSF alone. There are clinical trials that ended, patients that died, young people leaving the US… and bad stuff that happened inside the agencies.

I know this isn't the biggest takeaway, but Pam Bondi claiming that Dow is at "over 50,000 dollars" is pretty funny, as it shows how ignorant she is. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is indexed. The 50,000 doesn't represent dollars. And if I did, the entire Dow couldn't afford a single Land Rover.
