Total BS from the Press Sec. They most certainly refused the court order. They flaunted the refusal. And they don't even have the common decency to own their own depravity.

The story of #ElonMusk's grandfather and his connections to the present crisis is bizarre and not well-enough known. Start with the idea that Musk's maternal grandfather, Joshua Haldeman, was expelled from Canada in 1943 because he was a prominent leader of a group called Technocracy Incorporated.

You may not be interested in climate change, Mr Hegseth, but I can assure you, climate change remains very much interested in you.

When doctors deal with critically ill measles patients their first impulse is invariably that it's especially tragic given the WE KNOW HOW TO PREVENT MEASLES!

The ransacking of #USAID continues, regardless of the so-called exemptions for "life saving" programs, regardless of the lawsuits and injunctions. They simply do not care. Rebuilding US foreign development and humanitarian assistance will be a generational project, if we do ever get to that point.

#GermanElection results so far ... Seems clear that if the left (SPD / Greens / Die Linke) weren't so fragmented the AfD surge wouldn't be quite such a big deal. Then again, that's also basically how Hitler came to power in the 1930s.

Another plane crash. This time Delta Airlines in Toronto. But this really starts to feel like something is seriously off in North American air traffic control.

Musk's minion BigBalls has a CSAM problem and a KKK problem. This is *horrible*, in so many ways. To be clear though - it's not just a problem with BigBalls and his views - it's the entire lack of vetting procedure for these teenage sociopaths that #DOGE has unleashed on the US government.

The Gulf Coast and the wildfire zones are hurtling towards uninsurability of property. And to the best of my knowledge, no one in power has any idea of what to do about it. #climatecrisis

Apparently Assad fled #Syria by plane yesterday.

#Syria rebels are in central Damascus. It's all but over. Prisoners fleeing. Flights cancelled. Assad not located yet.

1. Demonstrations work, particularly if they're backed by a significant faction of political elites. 2. The military is the key actor - where they turn the country likely turns as well. 3. Declarations of authoritarian intent are *not* guaranteed to work.

Yes, it's significant that these numbers split politically - but still, a *huge* majority of Americans understand that what amounts to Trump's *only* economic policy - high tariffs - is inherently inflationary. This follows an election where "inflation" was the primary explanation for his victory.

This NY Times map showing the losses in voters for Kamala Harris relative to 2020 honestly looks A LOT like a map of people who were constantly told that the election is only happening in 7 states really, so why bother to vote? This does not mean that LA, Chicago, and NYC suddenly went MAGA.

Meanwhile in Ann Arbor today - Nazis and white nationalists are demonstrating by Michigan Stadium. I'm sure this was just about the price of eggs.

There's no way the Wagnerians think they can actually take Moscow with a couple columns of few thousand soldiers, right? Either there's something else going on or they think public opinion is actually so far on their side at this point after 100,000 military deaths that they'll just walk in.
