I'm reading Parable of the Talents by Octavia E Butler. As an American, this part sings loudly to me right now. I carry so much angst about our situation, doubled by the obliviousness of my neighbors who ignore or celebrate our fate. Why are we so blind? Our democracy has a shorter life expectancy than Mitch McConnell.

NEW: ProPublica reviewed hundreds of cases in which judges criticized the actions of Justice Department lawyers.
We found judges nominated by both parties who are frustrated that they can no longer take the government at its word.

Six months after ICE apprehended 47 people, including nine kids, in Hays County, Tex., County Judge Ruben Becerra says DHS has ignored his attempts to get answers:
“We’re not told why they took them, and we’re not told where they took them. By definition, that’s a kidnapping.”

The DOJ indicted “Bitcoin Jesus” Roger Ver in one of the largest-ever crypto tax fraud cases.
Those familiar with the case said the evidence was “rock solid” and that prosecutors were confident of a conviction.
Then Donald Trump won a second term.

The Trump administration is testing the waters regarding the law and states’ rights, and we as citizens of the United States of America must educate ourselves and inform others so we can push back within the framework of the law and states’ rights. We must share information to help educate others.
I now realize that for myself the sharing of memes on social media has become a form of entertainment and self-validation, and to me this provides only a distraction rather than a chance to inform others therefore I am going to focus as much as possible on posting information to inform others.
Wag the Dog, #Venezuela: #Democrats Must Relentlessly Expose #Trump
Rep Seth Moulton & Sen Ruben Gallego are leading the way responding to Trump’s unconstitutional, int #war crimes
But Venezuela, #ICE, #Epstein, tariffs, Trump’s billionaire-fluffing, are all of a piece. So the broader narrative goes like this

#USA gov't map of #Africa mislabels every country at global conference ‼️
The map contained an #AI watermark indicating it was made with OpenAI tools. 👀
It had:
• Nigeria (where #US currently has several hundred troops deployed) as landlocked in the Sahara Desert
• Mozambique, which is in southeastern Africa, relocated to the Horn of Africa
• Ivory Coast in West Africa placed on the other side of the continent
The State Dept blamed a staffer.

The new directive asks workers to check the backgrounds of foreign nationals collaborating with the department’s scientists for evidence of “subversive or criminal activity.” Their names are being sent to national security experts at the agency.

A Department of Veterans Affairs memo obtained by ProPublica erects new roadblocks to care for veterans with the rare but deadly cancer.
The agency cites no new science but relies on an executive order about “restoring biological truth” in government.

Tear gas — currently being deployed in Minneapolis — can cause long-term health consequences by making people more susceptible to contracting respiratory illnesses.
The chemical agent can also hurt people inside their homes if it seeps into residential neighborhoods.
From our 2020 investigation:

About 90,000 people living near larger chemical plants face an unacceptable risk of developing cancer, the EPA says.
New rules adopted last year could’ve cut that number to 3,000 residents — a drop of 97%.
But Trump has halted those efforts.

Red State Workers Could Lose Out on Disability Benefits as Trump Administration Rewrites Eligibility Rules

Planned changes to Social Security’s disability program could leave hundreds of thousands of older blue-collar workers ineligible for aid. These changes would fall disproportionately on some of President Trump’s most loyal supporters.

Legal experts called DHS’ move to use driver’s license data for citizenship checks more evidence of federal overreach.
“The administration wants to get as much data as it can, however it can, whenever it can.”

Tim Miller: Trump’s Hunger Crisis Hits His Own Voters
https://www.thebulwark.com/p/tim-miller-trumps-hunger-crisis-hits
I think that's a no-brainer right now that Europe should pursue digital sovereignty aggressively.
It's not about MS Office vs Libre Office, it's about banking apps, cloud services, your phone, your daily life. Which is a way bigger leverage #Trump has about your daily life. #FOSS is security.
