But it's still way too early to drum up the hysterics, right?

Jesus H. Christ. "It'll never happen here," "he's all talk," "what he actually meant was;" What if we had never put ourselves in this situation to find out?

Elon Musk is offering people in Wisconsin $100 if they sign a petition. This is in the context of his efforts to swing the court to conservatives. https://www.axios.com/2025/03/21/elon-musk-pac-wisconsin-judges

Sh*t, if I was in Wisconsin, I would sign for $100. My vote is secret, at least it should be, so he wouldn't know, and I would have $100. Make up some bogus email contact and see what happens.

The Trump administration's efforts to end federal diversity, equity and inclusion programs has hit an unexpected target: In February, communities around the country learned that funding was canceled for a nationwide tree-planting program aimed at making neighborhoods cooler, healthier and more resilient to climate change.

The urban forestry initiative, administered by the nonprofit Arbor Day Foundation, was supposed to distribute $75 million in grant funding to about 100 different cities, nonprofit organizations and tribes to plant shade trees in neighborhoods that need them the most. The program was funded by the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, which included big investments in climate initiatives.

In a letter terminating the contract, the U.S. Forest Service stated the program "no longer aligns with agency priorities regarding diversity, equity and inclusion." The U.S. Department of Agriculture, which houses the Forest Service, said in an emailed statement that the agency was complying with President Trump's executive orders.

Just a reminder that the following states and territories have Filial Laws on the books, ranging from civil to criminal charges, making children (or some cases other relatives) financially responsible for their impoverished parents:

Alaska, Arkansas (mental care only), California, Connecticut (only if parents are under 65), Delaware, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Nevada (only enforced if written agreement), New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, and West Virginia.


On the upside, there's gonna be a Metric Fuck Ton of homes on the market when Social Security gets eliminated.
