The Trump administration used Benny Johnson's claims that his house was "burned to the ground" and that "people were murdered in my front yard" to justify its federal takeover of DC. @kenbensinger.bsky.social found out that Johnson made it all up. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/30/b...

Suggesting that China - who is the main enabler of Russia’s genocidal war - should be part of a ‘peacekeeping’ mission to Ukraine, is beyond stupid. The level of incompetence in the American administration is staggering. You don’t ask the rapist to protect the victim. Unless you’re Trump.

This crime at Social Security might amount to the biggest data theft in human history. Committed by a government against its own citizens. I don’t think anyone has begun to grasp the sheer scale of corruption and institutional destruction that has occurred in the last few months. Era-defining.

From: Charles Borges, Chief Data Officer, Social Security Administration To: Frank Bisignano, Commissioner, Social Security Administration Subj: Forced Resignation from Social Security Administration I am regretfully involuntarily leaving my position at the Social Security Administration (SSA). This involuntary resignation is the result of SSA's actions against me, which make my duties impossible to perform legally and ethically, have caused me serious attendant mental, physical, and emotional distress, and constitute a constructive discharge. After reporting internally to management and externally to regulators serious data security and integrity concerns impacting our citizens' most sensitive personal data, I have suffered exclusion, isolation, internal strife, and a culture of fear, creating a hostile work environment and making work conditions intolerable. I have served this Country for almost my entire adult life, first as an Active-Duty Naval Officer for over 22 years, and now as a civil servant. I was deployed during 9/11, decorated for valor in combat during Operation Iraqi Freedom, and graduated from US Naval Test Pilot School. As a civil servant, I have served as a Presidential Innovation Fellow, in the Centers for Disease Control during COVID, within OMB on the Federal CIO Data Team, and now serve as the SSA Chief Data Officer (CDO). I have served in each of these roles with honor and integrity. As the SSA CDO, I am responsible for providing oversight and Governance to ensure the safety, integrity, and security of the public's data at SSA. My position requires full visibility into data access and exchange across all SSA systems and environments. My duties include ensuring compliance with federal data privacy, security, and regulatory requirements, as well as ensuring data is handled in accordance with internal and external policies, standards, and industry best practices. SSA data is among the most sensitive data in the Federal Government, and the CDO mus

“Today, there aren’t any bills on the floor for flood relief, no bills for tax reform, no bills to lighten the burden for Texas families. There’s only one item." "A radical, discriminatory, mid-decade redistricting that strips away minority representation in Congress.” - Rep. Chris Turner. #txlege

Y’all know what to do: cancel the subscription. (You’ll feel a whole lot better, and you can spend that money on something that doesn’t negatively impact democracy.)

Better yet: ‘You can talk to my attorney. I’m free to leave?’ (Say it over and over and over and over again - and over.)

Is this the same Apple that presented Authoritarian tRump with an honorary gift? I can’t get excited about anything Apple anymore. Not since Cook went down on tRump.

While I appreciate the ease with which we can all quickly share product information via Amazon, let’s be certain to vote with our wallets, and buy books locally - and, in doing so, send a signal to Jeff ‘Blows Trump’ Bezos that we’re not willing to enrich him at the cost of democracy.
