Noooooooooooooooooo! Aw man.

War on Women is a group I really like from Baltimore. feminist punk metal. https://waronwomen.bandcamp.com/track/white-lies

Both Stephen Miller and Jeffrey Clark have been saying that. They’re two of trumps top aides. Is something the have publicly stated they want the admin to do. First they said it for the southern border but they’ve also said protests like BLM should be enough to trigger the insurrection act.

Remember the last acting agent before this guy (sp four days ago) was Melanie Krause.

She stepped down rather than allow Americans private IRS filing data to be given to ICE. Scott bessett and Kristi noem signed that agreement without her knowing. She found out because it was on Fox News that the data had been given over. Again not clear that it was at all legal to do so.

Three days with this mini-mooch interim guy had at least one goal: (1) make the IRS remove Harvard’s statuses. He did that on day 1 of 3.

But possibly (2) could be just long enough to have approved other stuff that the serious acting admins wouldn’t do. Such as: additional data exfiltration by doge, more layoffs, or other sweeping decisions for political purposes…

What it is is the data they funneled from the NLRB and social security and others. See the hackathon at SSA last weekend of palantir being “evaluated” as a possible third party vendor. No contract signed. They just took the data. The NLRB whistleblower story is terrifying. They literally deleted the logs after doge visited.

Not sure if you’re putting a joke on a joke but these are the Three Stooges.

The constitution has plenty of checks for this and it starts with Congress (Article I).

Republicans can grow a spine and stop this today. They could have voted to impeach him twice. They don’t have to fund this! They choose to. This is the obeying in advance thing.

Three representatives in the house absolutely can pull a John McCain and 👎the slim margin and hold this up. From Rand Paul to Susan Collin’s and everyone in between they can find reasons to hold their vote and bring this action down. Just say hey they lied about social security or they lied about the tariffs and go from there.

Hey gamers: try bazzite Linux and you won’t ever have to worry about this. Try bringing one old machine over as a test and you’ll see for yourself.

I got it running in an afternoon recently. It reads all your windows docs off an external backup. The desktop version really can be a daily driver. The update script is a single click. Genuinely worth considering if you want at least some of your computer usage to not be recorded 24/7.

The US is paying El Salvador money to hold these people. Acting like there is nothing either can do is about as boldface a lie as there is. They can literally do anything they want and have control of both sides of any contracts.

This is them saying “what are you going to do about it?” And what should happen is people need to keep the pressure on so Congress sides with the courts asap (and this guys’ Senator is flying there next week to see him personally).

People have? The doge team have us Marshalls that let them in and push the staffers out of the way. It’s happened at the IRS, USAID, and others.

Here’s an agency which doge had no right to close still getting pushed out after blockading the office.

Don’t worry. For some of us, the riff started immediately. Still hasn’t quit.

Obviously AI is coming for sound designers too. You know that right? https://elevenlabs.io/sound-effects

And if you work on games and you haven’t seen your industry decimated in the past 16 months, I want to know what rock you have been living under and if there’s room for one more.

That’s an American not being recused by America. He’s had no due process. And unlike hostages held by the worst terrorists or oppressive regimes anywhere else in the world, they won’t even fight to get him back.

Leaving a comment to poll the chat: Who thinks the “existing contract with a credit rating agency” — who now thanks to this code injection will get a lot of new information that was previously filtered before it reached their part of the SS process — is tied to Peter Thiel?

(I honestly don’t know, just trying to ask the room)

Yeah it’s really more that since ten years ago, that the people who have been buying up homes are buying lots.

So the average person gets no house and the rich and corporations own many houses (then rent them out at high costs or sit on them as a private collection like a summer home or portfolio home).

There is a plan. Replace as much of the government as possible with third party vendors run by loyal donors. Aka how they do it in Russia. once the old systems are gone Who’s gonna stop ya?

Here’s what they’re doing to the IRS with or without waiting for the lawsuits to end. (Just posted in another thread about the article it comes from):

The agency is expected to partner with a third-party vendor to manage certain aspects of the data project. Palantir, a software company cofounded by billionaire and Musk associate Peter Thiel, has been brought up consistently by DOGE representatives as a possible candidate, sources tell WIRED.

This is it. This is the big one.

Two top DOGE operatives at the IRS, Sam Corcos and Gavin Kliger, are helping to orchestrate the hackathon, sources tell WIRED. Corcos is a health-tech CEO with ties to Musk’s SpaceX. Kliger attended UC Berkeley until 2020 and worked at the AI company Databricks before joining DOGE as a special adviser to the director at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). Corcos is also a special adviserto Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

Second reponse because I’m just blown away how you could say Bernie is silent. Here’s a live dream of the rally right the fuck now.
