Is it possible that all of this late night executive order chaos is NOT the work of a “very stable genius”?

It’s the Trump administration. Take the stupidest craziest shit you could imagine and put it to the power of 100. Of course your worst fears are confirmed . . . .

I know it’s a bit of joke, but this hearing to go after PBS and NPR was scheduled before the Signal group chat. But to make sure someone should audit all the Trumpers’ tax returns to see if they also donated to PBS or NPR. Or even have any PBS or NPR tote bags or coffee mugs in their possession.

ANYTHING in order to not offend their Lord - and to stay in office, of course. My response is: Let’s leave the union (blue and purple states). Isn’t that what they want? And take all of our tax revenue of course.

WaPo article (paywalled):
Federal officials are preparing for agencies to cut between 8 and 50 percent of their employees as part of a Trump administration push to shrink the federal government, according to an internal White House document obtained by The Washington Post that contains closely held draft plans for reshaping the 2.3-million-person bureaucracy.
Here’s my summary of RIF plans reported in the article:
Department of the Interior 25%
Department of Housing and Urban Development 50%
Internal Revenue Service 33%
Department of Justice 8%
National Science Foundation 28%
Department of Commerce 30%
Small Business Administration 43%
Environmental Protection Agency 10%
Treasury Department 30%
Department of Education 50%
The numbers in the document leaked to the paper appear to include employees who already took a deferred resignation offer or were illegally fired. The latter are supposed to be reinstated according to two court orders.

He’s not a Poliviere fan.
Looks like NATO will simply go on without us. Trump is at his core a coward. A large chunk of our military will not buy into “I vas only following orders” (worked great at Nuremberg), and ordering our troops against allies will be nothing less than cataclysmic. Denmark and Greenland show no signs of backing down.

Maybe he’ll be on the next Signal chatting about bombing Greenland into submission.

@txlawyer, LBJ understood a thing or two didn’t he.
To everyone else. Enjoy, this new season of Celebrity White House is just too f*cking weird. Part of me is dreading the season finale, and the other part is thinking, “Well, if he nukes Seattle at least it will be over quickly.”

Tone shift! U.S. President Donald Trump posted on his social media platform Truth Social that he’s spoken with Prime Minister Mark Carney.
And Trump actually called Carney prime minister, after repeatedly calling former prime minister Justin Trudeau “governor” — part of his annexation taunting.
Trump called it “an extremely productive call.”
“We agree on many things, and will be meeting immediately after Canada’s upcoming Election to work on elements of politics, business, and all other factors, that will end up being great for both the United States of America and Canada,” wrote Trump.
“Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
It’s a remarkable post in how normal and routine it is.
