Glad I filed my taxes last weekend. Just got my state return and my federal soon. Considering 1,000 people got laid off at the IRS with tax season people will be waiting months for their returns

I was downplaying Project 2025 thinking “Musk is just going to write recommendations to President Trump but they still have to go thru Congress for cuts, what can he do?” I am still in awe he just swooped in, took over systems and is brute force closing down agencies quicker than the legal or congressional system can react. At this rate at the end of the first 90 days this Goverment will be radically different for the worse

This is such a big setback that if Democrats win the White House, Senate and Congress in 2028 they’re going to spend 4 years just to rehire and build back a lot of the Executive branches as training etc takes a lot of time and money instead of moving the country forward.

Ai regulation is a joke because the tech evolves faster than legislation. Esp when you have open source LLMs out there. Not to mention Meta pirating Terrabytes of textbooks to train their models

The irony that a News Anchor is telling Federal Workers to get a "real job" when she could get one herself

Yup a Nixon move and he’ll be buddy busy with Patel trying to go after political rivals and whistle blowers. Democracy lasted 249 years
