Before the device was removed from the airport, officers put a bomb blast suppression blanket over it and taped off the immediate area, according to the federal complaint. https://t.co/b62zRKCkbo

Never underestimate the damage DOGE did to the U.S. government and the American people, by design. While the billionaires now move to their homes outside the country.
Trumpโs budget director Russ Vought is the most dangerous person youโve never heard of.
And he just proposed turning every federal grant into a loyalty test.
His plan would make funding for cancer research, housing, transportation, and public health depend on one thing: whether it โadvances the Presidentโs policy priorities.โ
Not whether it works.
Not whether Congress authorized it.
Whether it pleases Trump.
This is the appropriations power. It belongs to Congress and to the people.
To my Republican colleagues: where are you?
Congress passed this funding. You voted for it.
Vought is telling you to your faces that your votes do not matter, that he and his enablers will override the law whenever it suits them. Every day you stay silent, you give away the institution you were elected to defend.
Grow a spine.
This is not about left or right.
It is about whether Congress still exists as a coequal branch, or whether we have quietly surrendered the purse to an unelected hack who holds the Constitution in contempt.
History will remember who stood up and who looked away.

Yesterday I told you the government is pulling 900 ocean monitoring instruments out of the water.
Here is the part that should make every American angry, regardless of where you stand on climate.
Congress voted to fund this network. Not once. Twice. The Trump administration proposed cutting it by 80 percent in 2025. Congress restored the money. Proposed the same cut in 2026. Congress restored the money again.
So the administration labeled it a "descope" and ordered the instruments pulled anyway.
That is not a budget disagreement. That is an executive branch telling the legislative branch that its votes do not matter. The public paid for this infrastructure. Congress protected it. One office in Washington decided the public should not have it.
This is the pattern I document in ๐พ๐ ๐จ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐๐๐. It is not about left or right. It is about who decides what Americans are allowed to know about their own planet.
Who should make that call?
@washingtonpost Trump did this. Tariffs, raising fertilizer prices thus feed prices, and how much of Texas voted for the orange conman? Wonder how much of their staff were underpaid illegal immigrants....
@ProjectLincoln Trump did a slash & burn on programs designed to protect us and this is the result. Screwworm can spread to wildlife and . Even people who work in close proximity to afflicted animals are at risk. See article. https://t.co/4Fs6FhwYZC
