Hey Baddies... OH MY LANTA.
We know. Our country's political climate has been a lot. It’s undoubtedly exhausting and infuriating. But you’re here, staying informed, and that matters more than ever. Let’s rip this bandaid off together. Here's "the latest" reported in the past 48 hours.
DOGE Break-In: WTF?
DOGE Break-In: WTF?
The US Institute of Peace’s Acting President George Moose said DOGE (Department of Government Ethics) literally broke into their building after being turned away with FBI agents. Yes, you read that right... they broke in. The Institute’s been fighting to stay independent from executive branch control, and this latest move screams “intimidation.”
Judge Boasberg vs. The Dept of Justice
Judge Boasberg vs. The Dept of Justice
Judge Boasberg straight-up called out the Department of Justice (DOJ) today, as he was shocked to discover that the DOJ argued he doesn’t have authority to stop deportation flights once they leave U.S. airspace. He reminded them that judicial authority covers this and a contempt ruling could drop soon. Someone pass the popcorn.
The DOJ, clearly not loving Boasberg’s energy, filed to kick him off a case challenging Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to fast-track deportations of alleged Venezuelan gang members. Shady? Absolutely.
Texas Cracks Down on Abortion Providers
Texas Cracks Down on Abortion Providers
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced the arrest of Maria Margarita Rojas, a Houston midwife accused of performing alleged illegal abortions and pretending to be a doctor. This is the first arrest under Texas’s dystopian 2022 abortion ban, and a painful reminder that our reproductive rights are still under siege. Just when you think things can’t get darker.
Trump Might Hand Crimea to Putin
Trump Might Hand Crimea to Putin
Trump is reportedly considering recognizing Crimea as Russian territory to “negotiate peace” in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. This move aligns with Putin's long-standing position, and if it moves forward, it would mark a massive geopolitical shift. It would basically be a gift-wrapped win for Putin. Seriously, what the hell?
Even worse, the United States is now quietly backing away from an international effort to prosecute Russian leaders for war crimes in Ukraine. No reason has been provided yet, but this is a shocking blow to the international justice system.
Seattle Man Declared Dead... by DOGE
Seattle Man Declared Dead... by DOGE
Ned Johnson, an 82-year-old Seattle man, found out the Social Security Administration declared him dead by mistake. His Social Security and Medicare got cut off, and they even yanked $5,201 from his bank account. This mess traces back to DOGE, which is Elon Musk’s project under Trump to cut government waste. Guess it’s working, huh? Especially in all the wrong places.
Trump Threatens Iran
Trump Threatens Iran
Trump warned Iran that any future attacks by Yemen’s Houthi rebels will be treated as an attack from Iran and Tehran will have to face “severe consequences." This exchange is a dangerous escalation that could potentially have global ramifications. Suppose we’re flirting with the having another war now? Cool... cool... cool.
It’s overwhelming, it’s infuriating, but staying informed is a rebellion in itself.
You’re here, and we appreciate the hell out of you for that. We’ve got each other. Let’s keep going.
