An β€˜Administrative Error’ Sends a Maryland Father to a Salvadoran Prison The Trump administration says it mistakenly deported an immigrant with protected status but that courts are powerless to order his return.

If β€œprotected status” is no protection against extra-judicial imprisonment, what do the laws mean? www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Fall salmon returns to Sacramento and Klamath Rivers much lower than forecasted by fishery managers Despite the closure of salmon fishing in California river and ocean waters in 2023 and 2024, the number of Fall Chinook Salmon returning to both the Sacramento and Klamath River Basins was well below ...

California's salmon numbers continue to plummet

The National Science Foundation fired all its experts.

The National Science Foundation. Fired. All of its. Experts.

And they weren't even told to! The leadership worked toward the Fuhrer and went beyond the cuts demanded of them in anticipation of many, many more firingsβ€”up to *half* its staff.

The thing about destroying NIH is NIH’s scale in medical research just dwarfs everyone else.

For ex, in 2023 the American Cancer Society gave out $64.5 million worth of grants. Sounds big, right?
But NIH’s budget was $49 billion. With a B.

Kill NIH and the floor drops out of US science.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Americans Are Actually in a Position to Make Elon Musk Feel Our Rage His car company is in a precarious spot.

"Happily, today’s car buyers can find plenty of quality electric vehicles built by companies whose CEOs have neither destroyed a federal agency nor endorsed extremism. If you’re in the market for an EV, buy one of those."

Also, even a temporary or partial interruption in NOAA/NWS 24/7 lifesaving services--which are often used in an hour-by-hour (even minute-by-minute) context--would have this effect. The NWS is a critical public utility and it would be extremely difficult to rebuild if torn down.

While Trump has been distracting America with everything else, Elon Musk’s staffers are quietly taking over NOAA and the Department of Labor. They are also using AI to help rewrite a significant portion of the federal government’s computer systems.

This is what I think of as a specific kind of ignorance that heavily affects young white guys who work in tech. It says β€œi don’t know about this, so I assume no one else does either.” It’s new to them, so it must be new to everybody!
