Для нашего же блага

1. Newsom tells Pacific Palisades property owners: "You can't rebuild the same. We have to rebuild with science. We have to build with climate reality in mind."
Короче, пиздец котёнку. "По науке" они там такого понастроят, что жить никто там не сможет. Впрочем, скорее всего, просто отнимут земли по eminent domain и устроят фавелы для угнетённых. Сами за это голосовали, теперь кушайте с маслом.

2. Who’s in charge of Palisades fire recovery? The answer has gotten complicated
Recovery czar Steve Soboroff will be paid $500,000 over three months, with funding coming from charitable groups.
Как мы теперь все знаем, charitable groups - это просто эвфемизм для отмытых через них налоговых денег. Впрочем, кажется, он уже передумал, как только выплыло на свет. 

3. There were 4,600 total non-structure encampment fires in San Jose in 2024 — more than 10 times the number of residential fires at 360 and close to nine and a half times the number of business and building fires at 491.

4. "The Biden Administration should ignore the court" - AOC, 2023
Совсем Другое Дело (ТМ)

5. FEMA employees did avoid pro-Trump homes last year, investigation finds

6. Federal workers just want the dignity and privileges all normal American workers have, like taking a Tuesday off to sing about throwing their boss in jail, without fear of repercussions
The basic stuff, you know?

7. How Federal Employee Retirements Are Processed Will Shock You
Manually, on paper, in underground cave in Pennsylvania. Yes, federal pensions are processed literally by cavemen (and cavewomen of course, no sexism!)

8. Donald Trump era FEMA has resolved 80% of the remaining Hurricane Helene victim cases in North Carolina in just 20 days. $54 million for 2,600 families that needed assistance. Joe Biden’s administration left these cases unresolved for 116 days.
Да они и не пытались, просто время тянули.

9. Larry Ellison Pushes for AI-Powered National Data Centralization and Mass Surveillance

Who let the DOGE out

10. FEMA spent $59 MILLION on luxury NYC hotels for illegal aliens LAST WEEK in violation of Trump’s EO.
They lied to us again, when they said no FEMA money is spent on illegals - while knowingly spending FEMA money on illegals at the same time.

50 billion here, 50 billion there, and soon we're talking real money.

They were spending our money like it's going out of fashion.

15. FEMA is being accused of illegally destroying records and deleting group chats.
Time for some jail time.

16. USAID: British politician complaining that his wife was supposed to get $1M in USAID grants before Trump cancelled the contract. Rory Stewart's wife runs Turquoise Mountain Foundation, which exposes modern art to puzzled Afghan women.
OK, nothing against Afghani women or modern art (ok maybe a little against modern art but let's leave it aside) but why exactly I should be paying for it? Let Soros and Gates pay for it if they'd like to.

17. Washington DC searches soar for "Swiss bank" (yellow), "offshore bank" (green), "wire money" (red) and "IBAN" (blue)
I'm sure it's just a coincidence, nobody in DC is in need of offshore accounts to stash the money they stole. It's just healthy curiosity.

18. Washington DC searches for "statute of limitations" soar (data from Google trends)
Help us, statute of limitations, you are our only hope.

19. HHS splurged more than $22B on grants for migrants — including cash for cars, home loans and startup businesses

Protesting the government gets you 22 years in jail. BLM murderer gets out in three.

26. 7 months later, yet we still know 0 about the guy who nearly took out Trump…
Why is that BTW? They got thousands of agents on Jan 6 grandmas, how many agents are working on investigating the President's assassination?

27. Over $151 Million Taken from Soldiers' Paychecks for Food Costs Spent Elsewhere by the Army

They came for your children, as promised.

29. Obama guy Ben Rhodes tries to convince the deplorables they didn't vote for Trump's actions

Если вы не поняли, в BLM тоже виноват Трамп.

40. Democrat rep says "manufacturing" is a sexist term because it has the word "man" in it.
This is a real person, ostensibly elected by real people, doing it in Congress. Not a parody.

Старый солдат партии.

45. The New York Post is reporting that DNC Vice Chair David Hogg, who has called for paying reparations to illegal aliens and abolishing police, has been using DNC resources to solicit donations to a PAC he controls and uses to pay himself.

Usual suspects - BBC, CNN and Guardian - always rooting for Hamas.

47. American Prospect: Trump should learn from Hitler how to be a socialist

48. The New York Times says “Musk Asserts Without Proof That Bureaucracy Is Rife With Fraud.”
The GAO — under Biden — estimated last year that we are losing $233-$521 billion *per year* to fraud.
That's because NYT is part of the fraud and profits directly from it.

49. NYT still claims there's no evidence the letter declaring Hunter laptop to be Russian disinformation is fradulent.
They never give up in the fact of facts.

50. 60 Minutes pulled in 2 comms consultants who were never actual employees of USAID and presented them as though they were longtime employees who were fired for lack of "loyalty."
And on top of that, lied about firing conditions - everybody got 8 months severance, which is insanely generous for private sector.

Международная панорама

51. Two nurses at Bankstown Hospital, located in Sydney's western suburbs, have been removed from their positions after declaring on video they would refuse to treat—and would kill—Israeli patients who presented for care.
Think about what environment made them think it's OK. They went to school, medical school, worked at the hospital - and nothing in this experience taught them it's not OK. That's what multi-culti gets you.

52. A healthcare worker tried to warn about antisemitism in Sydney hospitals shortly after October 7 over a year ago.

Наука

55. Last night I was talking to someone who has access to NIH’s All of Us database. He described the limits researchers must accept, including no study of IQ. Also no topic that might show offensive group differences.

Literally hitler, I am sure.

Institution’s Seeing Things Queerly tour claims people think the toy bricks are ‘gendered’ and reinforces idea ‘heterosexuality is the norm’
По-моему, как раз наоборот - кубики одинаковые, соединяются через back end, чистейшая гей-пропаганда, странно, что в России не запретили (или запретили таки?)

58. California professor refuses to use ‘chief’ in her CEO title, says it offends ‘Indigenous colleagues’
Well, it's California.
