We just want to say—we’re sorry. We know how emotionally exhausting all of this is, and we truly understand. But you’re not alone. We’re in this together.

If Donald Trump can override our elected officials’ control of the purse strings, we are effectively entering a period of taxation without representation.

We used that sound clip in one of our CS show opens.😂
Unfortunately it's more apropos than ever.

Republicans are going along with Elon Musk's unlawful power grab.

They're okay with an unelected billionaire who has no congressional authority having his hands on the Treasury's payment system and your Social Security number.

The image is a scanned letter on official-looking letterhead from the U.S. Department of Justice, dated February 3, 2025. The letter is addressed to Elon Musk and discusses working with the DOGE team, ensuring the safety of American government employees, and protecting workers from threats. It mentions taking legal action against those who impede work or issue threats.

US Attorney for DC threatens prosecution against anyone unmasking "DOGE" employees in blatant violation of the First Amendment.

DOJ is now Musk's personal army he will use to target his critics with baseless criminal investigations.

Been feeling a bit helpless lately so I thought I'd try to make something useful.

My desire to be well informed is at odds with my desire to keep my sanity

Totally normal stuff here

Um. What did I just watch?

A line of fine looking #landsknecht at our latest SCA war practice.
