i mean, i could understand the shooter getting away, but it doesn’t sound like they even have any suspects. normally, by now, they’ve released some kind of grainy surveillance footage or description or sketch or *something*, but it seems like they’ve got nothing

I think that escalatory civil violence is very bad. But I swear to fucking God if anyone even attempts to suggest that Trump hasn't been the primary actor over the last decade fueling the normalization of civil violence in America, I'm going to lose it.

thinking about what might have possibly caused that recent uprising in Nepal

Wednesday 23 April 2025, by Nehal Singh

United States Agency for International Development (USAID) sudden funding disruption has severely impacted Nepal’s community development efforts at a pivotal time in the country’s growth trajectory.

The termination of 34 projects worth an estimated $329 million has disrupted healthcare, education, energy, and infrastructure development efforts, affecting over 400 organizations and placing an estimated 30,000 to 35,000 youth jobs at risk (Bhattarai, 2025). These projects were meant to boost Nepal’s progress in the direction of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in rural and marginalized communities. The timing of this withdrawal couldn’t be more wrong as it coincides with Nepal’s anticipated graduation from Least Developed Country (LDC) status, compounds its impact and introduces heightened uncertainty for the nation’s economic and social future. This reflects a severe loss of resources as well as breach of trust in the continuity of global development partnerships. If left unaddressed, the consequences may reverse years of development progress and deepen inequalities. Nepal now faces the dual challenge of sustaining its momentum while navigating a more constrained international support landscape.

reasonable people can quibble about how USAID does some of this, but that’s not what’s on the table—the question on the table is stark: do we want the might of the US state to provide people w/aid & assistance, or do we just want it to crush people? Do we want to protect the people who provide aid?

the first fatal commercial plane crash in 16 years happened just days after Trump froze hiring of air traffic controllers that were already stretched thin

TRUMP'S DANGEROUS
FREEZE OF AIR
TRAFFIC CONTROL
HIRING
Washington, D.C. — Today, Ranking Member of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure Rick Larsen (D-WA) and Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Aviation Steve Cohen (D-TN) released the following statements after President Trump froze the hiring of Air Traffic Controllers, among other safety-critical positions.
"The bipartisan FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 directs the Administration to hire the maximum number of air traffic controllers. That's what the law says, so the Administration must rescind this ridiculous executive order," Ranking Member Larsen said. "Hiring air traffic controllers is the number one safety issue according to the entire aviation industry. Instead of working to improve aviation safety and lower costs for hardworking American families, the Administration is choosing to spread bogus DEl claims to justify this decision. I'm not surprised by the President's dangerous and divisive actions, but the Administration must reverse course. Let's get back to aviation safety and allow the FAA to do its job protecting the flying public."
"Our top priority must be the safety of the flying public so an order freezing the hiring of air traffic controllers is a misguided decision and goes against the directives of our
FAA Reauthorization bill," Ranking Member Cohen said. "The aviation community will speak with one voice in condemning this short-sighted policy and reaffirm our

To put the OMB grant freeze in context, roughly 17.5% of Wisconsin’s revenue comes from federal grants in aid last I checked. Overall, federal grants account for roughly 36% of all state government budgets in US. In a number of states the federal share is even higher.
