Unpopular opinion reboot: It's time for folks to post on Twitter. If engaging here is more comfortable, post on both but only engage here. But post there, too. The fight is over there.

This is all a good reminder that, “no help, no votes until the criminal conduct stops” is neither a big ask nor a politically perilous one.

There should be absolutely zero budget negotiations with the republicans until DOGE is completely shut down. Why would you negotiate any legislation with people who are illegally cutting previously funded legislation?

Where the fuck are the injunctions? How are there not 100's of lawsuits filed against the DOGE breach? Why is this not the top headline/story everywhere? What are letters demanding a hearing going to accomplish? When is a leader going to emerge to resist? Who is going to fight back?

If we're all standing around waiting for the #MAGA and #DOGE criminals to announce "This is a robbery!" before offering real, organized resistance, that's not how this works. They're breaking the law right in front of us, people need to rise up now or this game is over before it even started.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Before this week, I would guess 90+% of Americans had zero idea USAID even existed. I hate to say this because is sounds so defeatist, but it's going to take average Americans experiencing real pain in their own lives before they even start to pay attention to any one of these 5 alarm fires.

Andy Biggs helped plan January 6, according to Ali Alexander. He should be in federal prison, probably for the rest of his natural life. But Merrick Garland had to play politics first, so instead tens of millions of workers will lose all safety protections at work. That the size of it, basically?

The plan is for Musk to illegally gain access to our payment systems to illegally cut spending programs they will use to "pay" for their billionaire tax cut all while using tariffs as the shiny object to distract. It's literally Die Hard, but instead of Nakatomi Tower, they're robbing the Treasury.

Washington is full of rule-following valedictorians who were inspired by the West Wing and did Model UN and moot court and studied their heroes and who believe in using government to help people. That's nice, but you need to learn how to swing on the illiterate bullies who steal lunch money.

The best part is, this is likely the worst team they'll field for the next 3-4 years. If Hortiz can hit on a comparable draft to this year's, they have tons of cap space and good free agents will want to play for Harbaugh.
