i feel like the viral bus thread resonates because at every step of the way you're like "ok surely this will be resolved shortly, any second now," which seems like what all the passengers are also thinking. then the fact that the situation doesn't resolve and the bus just keeps going is an Allegory

It would take a two-word amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to subject ICE agents and other federal law enforcement officers to the same liability for constitutional violations that local and state officers currently face. If Congress actually cared about what it's seeing, it could pass that overnight.

Jerome Powell: "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."

everyone thinks they’re a foreign policy expert now huh

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

Impeach.

Impeach, convict and remove. I don't know what Congress is there for otherwise.

Impeachment proceedings are mandatory. You either believe the presidency is governed by rules or you don’t.

Impeach.

I hope this email finds you in contempt of Court.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

Got my performance review.

The ability to gather and report information without authorization from the government is pretty much the definition of a free press

Wow.. okay.. unfollowing now. I just liked his investment advice and some of his videos with his nephews were cute. I had no idea he dives into a giant pile of gold coins everyday :/

I hope this email finds you, no matter how far you go.

TIRED: “learn to code!” WIRED:

Today’s unsigned, unexplained #SCOTUS ruling clearing the way for removals of migrants to third countries without any additional process is a disaster—not just on the merits, but because of the government misbehavior that it not only refuses to punish, but effectively rewards. Me, via “One First”:

A small part of my legal job at Google 15+ yrs ago was to ensure we only listed products that had "launched" in a given country on the product directory page for that country's ccTLD. (This was back when Google's products all reasonably fit on one page). Good times... blog.google/products/sea...

18F, the federal government’s technology shop, was demolished by Musk’s team shortly after midnight. It was a cost-recoverable org, charging agencies for their expertise, using a consulting model. Its cost to government was negligible, its benefits huge. My team there once saved DoD $500 billion.
