We just won a court order stopping DOGE and unauthorized, unelected, and unvetted individuals like Elon Musk from accessing people's private data and blocking federal funds.

We will keep fighting to protect all Americans from this administration’s destruction.

CNN — The Trump administration has begun drafting an executive order that would kick off the process of eliminating the Department of Education, the latest move by President Donald Trump to swiftly carry out his campaign promises, two sources familiar with the plans told CNN. The move would come in two parts, the sources said. The order would direct the secretary of Education to create a plan to diminish the department through executive action. Trump would also push for Congress to pass legislation to end the department, as those working on the order acknowledge that shuttering the department would require Congress’ involvement.

Huge caveat, but *if* true it's a sign public pressure is reaching the Trump admin. Trump can ask the Secretary to come up with a plan to eliminate Dept of Edu, and he can suggest Congress do it.

What he's been doing—unilateral shut down, like USAID—is unconstitutional.

Laura McMurray I heartily advocate raising hell, but for now raising hell in manners which cannot be scapegoated for the economic harm Trump is unleashing. So for now, no general strike. For now no huge outdoor
Protests which can be driven into an excuse for violence and declarations which expand 1)

The NYC Chapter of the Historical Novel Society held their holiday party tonight, graciously hosted by Christina Britton Conroy. A sampling of novels were read by the authors and new friends were made. Nothing beats in-person socializing.

Flora, our 17-year-old cat, loves nothing better than to sleep behind our December Christmas tree. She has many other places decreed fit for her but this time of year, she is our littlest/biggest present. #NYC #christmastree #oldcat

All those are good, especially Kerri Russell in “Austenland,” but I’d rather watch the several “Persuasions” or the “Emmas.”

Escapism from the world’s worries - will Lizzy’s £50 a year will be enough to entice a husband? What’s your choice- the Pride & Prejudice from 1995 or the 2005 version?

Ok, my pick.

It may take awhile to figure out how to fight this tide of graft, incompetence, and evil, but we will do it.

Terrifying - the man with a worm in his brain is in charge of these departments.
