Trump: "We're gonna have tremendous goodies in the bag for women too. The women, between the fertilization and all the other things we're talking about, it's gonna be great. Fertilization. I'm still very proud of it, I don't care. I'll be known as the fertilization president and… pic.twitter.com/TjLuL8lb19

Greenland waste of plane ride:
Vance decided to go to Greenland even though they were clear they didn’t want him there. Today he cancelled all public events in the country.

Trump: "The cost of groceries. A word that I used a lot on the campaign. It's like an old fashioned word, but it's a beautiful word, very descriptive word."
Below that:
1
Every time I hear this man speak I shake my head remembering the countless hours I have spent studying for exams, reading and writing essays, and attaining academic degrees to improve my station in life—and this guy has literally just failed upwards, his entire life, directly into the United States Presidency.
2
Only someone completely detached from ordinary life could speak of groceries like it’s an old poem. Trump’s “beautiful word” moment is a symptom of elite bubble syndrome—where the fridge fills itself and dinner appears without a thought.

It’s rich—literally—for Trump to muse on groceries as if it’s some vintage Americana. For 99% of us, groceries are a necessity. For the gilded few like Trump, they’re abstract concepts, fetched by staff, managed by assistants, never touched by their hands.

What a 48 hours…..what a week….month…year…..decade. I never thought my retirement years would be like this. I am not just tired. I am exhausted by this man’s existence. His image and sound of his voice is abhorrent to me. I’m only slightly younger and pray I outlive him, even if it’s only one day so I can celebrate.

I think it’s especially hard for many of us who fought for women’s rights, civil rights, and peace in the late 1960’s and 1970’s. To see it all reversed is horrifying.

I agree %. i was all set to sell the estate and move to a +55 community with a pool and spa. Now I'm hoarding stuff in my basement and wondering when the Americans ate going to attack us.

I am increasingly convinced that the Turd Reich has learned at least one lesson from the mistakes of the Nazis in Germany: Don't build the gas chambers in your own backyard. They'll outsource the worst atrocities to foreign despots who will gladly take U.S. taxpayer money to quietly "dispose of" the "terrorists" that America sends them.

Thanks to the involvement of Elon Musk and the support of several other prominent technology industry figures, the second Trump administration has a techno-futurist strand that was completely missing from the nostalgia-soaked first. We’re hearing about robots, advanced rockets, artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies of tomorrow.

But underlying this forward-looking rhetorical glow is a multi-pronged attack on American scientific research that could genuinely cripple knowledge production and our long-term future.

In order to grasp the full scale of the assault, it’s important to recognize that these threats are converging from multiple directions at once. The centerpiece, politically at least, is a determination to destroy left-aligned institutions, of which universities are a salient example. But that’s hardly the only front:

Somewhat independent of the administration’s attack on institutions is the involvement of RFK Jr. and his admirers, who until recently, formed a crank anti-progress wing of the left.

On immigration, the administration’s paranoia extends well beyond a desire for a secure border, and systematically errs on the side of removing more people and making the United States a less desirable place to live and work.

DOGE’s core fiscal theory is that it’s possible to make large reductions in federal spending without any noticeable diminution of service levels, and this creates large, systematic incentives to do things with hidden long-term costs.

It’s not unique to this administration, but the traditional business community’s hostility to research agendas that might make the case for public interest regulation has not diminished.

And last but not least, there is a harder-to-define nexus of influence in Trump’s DC that includes both malign foreign actors who don’t want America to safeguard its national interests and believers in a short-term singularity who don’t believe there’s a long-term interest that needs to be secured.

Smithsonian exhibits can't have wrong ideology. Will cave men be converted to Aryans?

On threads:
A: The stories I'm reading about ICE detention are at the point where I'm genuinely worried about my green card holder spouse traveling outside the US. He's eligible for citizenship but always kept finding reasons the timing was bad. Normally I'd tell myself I was being paranoid and self centered and foolish -- he's British (I don't approve of US government racism but I'd never a fool not to admit it), he's been here and employed for 15 years, and he has a citizen wife and children. But now?

B: One problem there is that it will be easier to get a UK passport than a US one, which Trump is likely to wreck soon as well. You will probably get a "gold passport" for 5000 dollars soon.

Trump administration asks the supreme court to lift an order barring deportations under wartime law
This reported is from the Associated Press.
