This is a reminder that if you own a car, get a window breaker/seat belt cutter tool, and keep it in an easy-to-reach location in your car. They cost less than $10. After a crash, doors can get stuck or they may be locked, and seat belts may be hard to disengage. These tools are not only useful for your own car. If any bystander had that tool, they could have assisted regardless of the car model.

DOGE couldn’t have possibly worked, ever. I think everybody knows a situation where there’s an employee who is contributing far more than their own manager knows. So the point is that even if you asked everybody’s immediate managers to decide who to lay off, you’d have huge mistakes being made.

A central bureaucracy like DOGE is so much farther removed from that situation that it’s not even funny. There is simply no way that it has the expertise to conduct layoffs, and it was obvious from the beginning. Companies facing layoffs know that they will lose unreplaceable employees, but they have to do so due to immediate financial pressures, nothing like what the government faces.

So, DOGE was either a stupid idea created by absolute morons, or it was a cover for bad actors who never intended to do what they claimed. Or a little from column a, and a little from column b.

For these types of stories, I always think of traffic laws and speed limits, specifically because most people are familiar with breaking those laws.

“The speed limit here is 30 miles per hour. You should not drive over the speed limit.”

“We need to investigate this person because he is telling people to follow the law.”

This reasoning is sort of unthinkable and unfair.

I agree that they won’t be refiled, and that MAGA will probably act like it’s some conspiracy, that the rulings were fake or something, just like any election that MAGA doesn’t win must be fake.

One other reason that they won’t be refiled is that these cases have now been analyzed in public pretty thoroughly now. Any lawyer who is offered the job now knows for sure how high profile it is, and as a result, how likely they are to face some consequences for their actions.

his latest move could kill us all

This phrase could literally have been said at any point during Trump’s current term, and it will continue to be true for the rest of his term. Trump is regularly doing things that could kill us all.

I still can’t figure out why Greene resigned and talked about someday coming back to help her constituents. Like, lady, you’re literally already in the best place to help your constituents. You have a whole year left in your term. You don’t even have to get primaried if you just choose not to run again. What’s the deal with Republicans just deciding not to do the job that people voted for them to do?
