It kind of all plays like a sitcom

It sucks that it’s reality and not fictional but better to chuckle at the absurdity rather than stress about it

Only major takeaway from today was that the tech giants and billionaires were front and center for the most part.

Otherwise, just start wrecking stuff and get it over with.

I know the dude is socially awkward and makes odd movements. I know his brain is likely beyond repair from drug damage and he was just really freaking amped up. I know he probably didn't mean to do a Nazi salute... but the dude just did a Nazi salute. lol

Being obsessed with birth rates is usually a pretty good sign that you’re a nazi. But in case there was doubt.

Come on guys. Calling them Nazis is more of a problem than them acting like Nazis and its why the Dems are just as bad. Or something like that.

He's out there deliberately emboldening neo-Nazis because he knows that no one can stop him. We now have a ruling class that has absolutely zero fear any kind of consequences, no matter how vile their actions are.

It's gonna get really bad, folks.

The verbiage for the federal workforce executive order has a lot of vague language, holes you could drive a truck through:
Heads of all departments and agencies in the executive branch of Government shall, as soon as practicable, take all necessary steps to terminate remote work arrangements and require employees to return to work in-person at their respective duty stations on a full-time basis, provided that the department and agency heads shall make exemptions they deem necessary.

This memorandum shall be implemented consistent with applicable law.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential ... rson-work/
I'm not too worried. I'm full remote, my workplace is my house and my direct reports are all over the country. It would take considerable organizational incompetence for this to get to my level.

That said, we hoped it would attack telework by name, not remote work . I have worked remote since 2019.

Trump also commuted the sentences of Proud Boys and Oath Keepers who were charged with plotting to forcibly halt the peaceful transfer of power in 2020 to time served. However, Proud Boys national chairman Enrique Tarrio — who is serving a 22-year prison term, the longest handed down in connection with the attack — received a pardon.
...
Trump also ordered his Justice Department to take steps to throw out all pending indictments against Jan. 6 defendants whose cases have not yet been fully adjudicated — a decision that would shut down roughly 470 ongoing cases.
