“I really don’t want the focus to be on Trump. He’s not the fire; he’s just an accelerant. The fire is the free of the rich, their capture of government, & their constant shortsightedness when faced with the gleam of more wealth.” - @thomasneuburger.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/neuburge...

This seems to have taken off... The End of the Game neuburger.substack.com/p/the-end-of...

I believe this a very important short read. Our options are terrifying. It's crazy to acknowledge that in just over a year The USA, the mightiest country in the world, faces a Hobson's choice. Imagine that weaselly trump has done all that in such a short period of time because of the Epstein Files.

Getting clear, folks. Some data points prior to analysis By @thomasneuburger.bsky.social neuburger.substack.com/p/its-gettin...

OPM Director Scott Kupor: "DOGE has never been disbanded. Certainly the principles that we're all talking about here around efficiency is there." As we've said since Musk's exit from government, the principles of DOGE remain, now carried out in the shadows by OMB Director Russell Vought.

Rep. Pocan: Do we know how many DOGE employees are still embedded at other agencies? Kupor: I don't know the answer to that.

The Iran War Information Gap by @thomasneuburger.bsky.social neuburger.substack.com/p/war-on-ira...

“Around 30yrs after their violent takeover, the Alkhalifas struck a deal with the British to become a protectorate (to protect them from the Indigenous population).” Bahrain: Behind the News - @thomasneuburger.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/neuburge...

Has anyone asked John Thune or Mike Johnson whether if Trump told them to jump off a bridge, they'd do it?

Israel has set the world on fire, and Trump was the fuse. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPo8...

The implications of this are huge, most of them beyond the obvious. For example, Democratic Party leadership are about to separate themselves from the Party base — right before an election. This is the I've Had It crew: x.com/TrackAIPAC/s...

Thanks — quite a compliment, Tenney!

This one hits hard.

Normalizing the state’s inner thug

Has the Rate of Global Warming More Than Doubled? by @thomasneuburger.bsky.social h/t James Hansen neuburger.substack.com/p/has-the-ra...

Not sure I buy the age part. I'm worried about the "good Democrat" part. Is this what a "good Democrat" does? More specifically, did the caucus discuss which Reps would be the ones to pass this bill? Implies leadership wanted it to pass.
