Every. Single. One.
According to a federal court, Trump's IRS illegally shared confidential taxpayer information with ICE 42,695 times.

The United States can do both. This either/or argument just tries to validate neoliberal austerity economics.
As always, Benjamin can’t read the room
Awesome work, @pbump.com
I wonder if there's a way to overlay which of these entities have been mentioned in Trump's various grift schemes, and the amount of the grift. Then a side by side with his first term.
It's a lot of work. I'm a data geek. This is how I think. 🙂
Donald Trump’s White House is blocking top US intelligence agencies from warning law enforcement across the country about rising threats to the homeland tied to his war with Iran, the Daily Mail can reveal.

Kamala Harris: "I predicted a lot about what's happening right now. I'm not here to say 'I told you so,' but we did see it coming."
"It could last, you know, six days, six weeks. I doubt six months."
- Donald Rumsfeld speaking to US troops in February 2003 on the impending invasion of Iraq
Imperial hubris in a nutshell:

Then expect them to accept higher tariffs to help finance the war you started.
"Today, the world’s seven richest individuals are all major media barons, giving them extraordinary control over our media and public square, allowing them to set agendas, and suppress forms of speech they do not approve of."

Eat fucking shit.
MAGA confronts it‘s biggest challenge invading Iran - geography.
Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.
OpenAI head of robotics just resigned over company deal with the Pentagon saying…

Neoliberal austerity economics.

He never has and he never will.
And it makes me so fucking angry.
