They are normalizing violence and a disregard for laws. Who is going to stop them? That's the question.

My desk this morning. Slight breeze, good internet (from the work trailer), and no interruptions. Getting caught up on emails.

The "elites" MAGAs should be worried about, that don't care about them (or any of us, actually) are the billionaires who are taking advantage of them and an entire nation.

Remember when the uber rich of the 20th century (Stanfords, Crockers, Ayers, Rockefellers) developed a conscience in the early 20th century? Can we skip the Great Depression and fast forward to that?

The problem is that our justice system is designed for addressing working class criminals. White collar crime has always been a slap on the wrist. Time to to fess up and do something about it?

The way things are going I'm considering getting a burn phone for traveling abroad. That said, looking for recommendations on travel insurance. Do you get it, annual or trip-by-trip, or?

Agreed. A steady diet of comics and movies that depict people as helpless until some superhero shows up hasn't helped. Superheroes are the people who organize to do something about problems.

Catch up. That was last week. Now they want to review every single contract, no matter what the amount. Projects that have taken three years and reviews by fund managers, experts and lawyers... are stalled.

Someone posted weeks ago that they'd be fine with being forced out and then rehired at a higher rate. Guess what's happening. Exactly that. FDA is having to recoup their staffing losses at a higher cost and... with additional HR expenses.
