The Good Guys are Out; the Bad Guys are In. Up. Is. Down.
As a writer of dramatic fiction (science fiction and political thriller movies) and someone who has considered the Right a threat to the country going back 50+ years, there is no way I could have come up with what is now history.
It’s worse than that. The ICU MDs and Nurses are trying figure out who gets to mix the “cocktail” to cause flatlining. So many competing Angels of Death.
My concern is so many things are happening that the focus is so spread out. Musk developers making code changes to our government software and pushing those changes straight into Production is alarming and I only see Wired and TPM covering that. I called my representatives this morning raising the alarm and we all should be doing that right now.
Maybe inexplicably, Krugman’s cranking out a lot of posts, a lot of which no way could have run at the Times. But yesterday’s had *the* classic headline for these (open-ended) times: “Trump Is Doing Exactly What He Said He Would. Who Could Have Predicted That?”
Meanwhile, Semafor reports that CBS News are first lets say comprehending what’s going there. As ever, I am amazed how journalists are so often clueless about what’s going on around them which, in turn, begs the question: if they’re that clueless about what’s they’re in the midst, how can they know much about anything, let alone be better of a fake expert?
It looks very much like even if the Cabinet nominees don't get confirmed, there's been enough loyalist moles planted in the subordinate positions who will be able to carry out the noxious agenda.
Also, remember how we were reassured that the Department of Education could only be dissolved by law? Good times, good times.
I just wish the people working in all of these agencies would sue. I realize that maybe it's too expensive for them to do so, but someone has to stop musk.
An Active Adversary is roaming the halls of the treasury and Actively changing code in the most sensitive database!! Why isn't our military there in FULL FORCE?
While everybody has their knickers in a twist over "politicizing" the FBI, let us remember that the Bureau, under Hoover, had thousands of agents all over the country who were gleefully and ardently - with a strong ideological bias - disrupting, infiltrating, subverting, harassing, etc., dozens of civil-rights organizations AND individuals as part of multi-year attacks on "Commies, pinkos, radical 'Negro' organizers", MLK himself...the list is endless.
So, no tears shed by this senior, who has followed the Bureau's seedy, slimy history since the 1950s.

THANKS, TPM! KEEP IT UP!!!!!!
Your lead states the Trump is sworn is as Melanie holds the bible(s). Why didn’t you mention that Trump did not put his hand on the bible(s)?
He didn't touch the bible because he was afraid he would light on fire.
She was *technically* holding the Bible; Scheißenführer just had another book on top of it he placed his tiny hand on.
There are no guardrails; there are no adults in this administration.
The body of our Democratic Republic is lying in the ICU and has a "no code" order on the chart.
Good luck to us all.

We should really be calling
Musk and crew invasion into
the most sensitive
information and financial
areas of our government, as
well as the dismemberment
of other areas exactly what it
is: a coup. And by any other
name, it would be just as
rotten.

Why the authentication code?
