Yesterday I told you the government is pulling 900 ocean monitoring instruments out of the water.
Here is the part that should make every American angry, regardless of where you stand on climate.
Congress voted to fund this network. Not once. Twice. The Trump administration proposed cutting it by 80 percent in 2025. Congress restored the money. Proposed the same cut in 2026. Congress restored the money again.
So the administration labeled it a "descope" and ordered the instruments pulled anyway.
That is not a budget disagreement. That is an executive branch telling the legislative branch that its votes do not matter. The public paid for this infrastructure. Congress protected it. One office in Washington decided the public should not have it.
This is the pattern I document in 𝑾𝒆 𝑨𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑩𝒂𝒅 𝑮𝒖𝒚𝒔. It is not about left or right. It is about who decides what Americans are allowed to know about their own planet.
Who should make that call?

@KyleLascoShow @HunterBiden Yea, Hunter made soooo much money he's buying fortress islands in Albania with the proceeds, oops that orange foolius' offspring!

What I’ve learned over the years is that the full story is often more complicated than the version people see at first.
Hunter you’re not fooling me or anyone for that matter. We know there’s more about your history than just “paintings”
Just like we know there’s more to all of this bullshit. You’re using headlines as your argument and that’s a FULL STOP. Time always proves Donald Trump right more than not. Let’s see how you and your family do with time huh?

So let me get this straight.
Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom.
Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.
Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.
Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.
And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”
Please.

Acting AG Todd Blanche sat with Sean Hannity for an hour and a half interview and they spent so much of it talking about uncharged people who are targets of President Trump that the video ends with this notable disclaimer -->

The Trump administration is sending ships to rip 900 ocean sensors out of the Atlantic and Pacific — and Congress already told them twice they couldn't do it.**
They're doing it anyway.

And then they expire for everyone except corporations and the top 1% just after the midterms.
Congressman Mike Simpson@CongMikeSimpson
HISTORIC tax relief = DELIVERED. @USTreasury's tax return data confirms that the Working Families Tax Cuts benefited millions of hardworking American families. This may have been the most important vote I've cast in Congress, while every Democrat voted NO.

Literally the only explanation for why Trump would install Pulte in this position is to have him use the resources and authorities of the US intelligence community against his political enemies. Democrats should fight this tooth and nail starting with Section 702 reauthorization
Shelby Talcott@ShelbyTalcott
Trump taps Bill Pulte as Acting Director of National Intelligence — says he will also remain in his current roles as well (director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency and chairman of Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac)

The working class is just cannon fodder for capitalism, and nothing will ever change until we put the prosperity of the many over the greed and corruption of a mega-wealthy few.
This isn’t a Right vs Left issue.
It’s a handful of oligarchs vs the rest of us issue.

Rule changes for the SpaceX $SPCX IPO: Index providers waived the profitability requirement and cut the seasoning window from 90 days to 5. This forces over $30 trillion in passive 401k and retirement money to buy SpaceX at IPO valuations. Bloomberg Intelligence estimates S&P 500 funds must absorb 19% of SpaceX's float within 6 months. Russell 1000 and Nasdaq 100 funds will absorb 24%. The rules built to protect passive investors: 1. S&P 500 has required 12 months of trading and 4 quarters of GAAP profitability since 2002. Both waived. 2. Nasdaq cut its inclusion window from 90 trading days to 15. 3. FTSE Russell cut its to 5. All three benchmarks are now structured to buy SpaceX at IPO pricing.

John Oliver: The hypocrisy here is just so flagrant. Just last week, administration officials triumphantly announced indictments as part of their ongoing crackdown on health care fraud. But, as reporters quickly pointed out, some of those fraud cases seem strikingly similar to those for which Trump has granted clemency, when people have had connections to him.

Friendly reminder
Instead of governments
creating Digital IDs
to track citizens…
Maybe citizens
should have Digital IDs
for politicians.
Track who they meet with.
Track who lobbies them.
Track where our tax dollars go.
They work for us.
Not the other way around.

In the US, spending on data center construction now exceeds spending on public transportation infrastructure — including airports, marine terminals, and all mass transit.

It doesn’t matter if Palantir eliminates all crime.
We don’t want to live in a dystopian surveillance state.
When Patrick Henry said ‘Give me liberty or give me death,’ he wasn’t just talking about the British.
He was talking about all tyrants. Foreign or domestic.
