When DOGE entered the USIP building IN March to replace its leadership, fire its staff, and assume building ownership, it demonstrated some more developed techniques than those employed by Hitler in his government's early days of becoming a dictatorship.

Without any legitimate vetting by a federal court or legislature,Trump alone ordered DOGE to wreak havoc on the databases and information systems of any congressionally-funded organization he wanted to silence, disable or kill. Just like any would-be dictator would do.

Some of USIP's former leadership contested the legality of these moves in court, citing the agency's independent structure, and on May 19, Judge Beryl Howell ruled in favor of USIP.

DOGE is arguably an illegal misappropriation of a congressionally created and funded agency of the government with a chartered mission to make government computer systems that are used by the public more accessible to the vast majority of potential users. What DOGE is now is apparently a privacy invading, data-harvesting vehicle of Elon Musk and a tool forTrump to weaken agencies of government that have any potential to interfere with the narcissist/megalomaniac-in-chief's powers.

There are so many people around the world whose problems have only worsened under the chaos wrought by the 2-month old Trump/Vance administration. No wonder the Bizhop of Rome put a low priority on meeting with a co-author of America's national policy to embrace war criminals and dictators and to burn the lifelines that so many needed.

I agree with so many others here; I thought this was news of a federal court ruling against the type of extortion used by this administration against the press and news media. Maybe the Preakness event win is a good omen for news media?

If your entire life had been on the cutting edge scientific research and your funding stopped because the country around you became hostile and as wary of scientists as Salem's Puritans were of so-called "witches", would you stay? And if universities or corporations in France, England, Germany, Sweden, Panama, Brazil, Israel, or Japan, etc, would welcome you, would you stay?

Lamplighter. Trump's been on the KGB list of potential influential Russian assets to be groomed since the 1970s when he began consorting with Ivana, his future wife, and the daughter of Czechoslovakian communist secret police informants. Don, Jr, learned just speak, fluent Czech from his secret communist informant grandfather.

All 3 of Ivana's Trump kids were fully dossiered by KGB allies their entire lives and groomed to trust the Russians as their friends. And knowing how well the KGB trained its agents to befriend and groom potential assets, one can only guess to what extremes the KGB & Putin would go to have s famous and "rich" bloviator like Trump groomed to become an asset.

Heck, when Trump's liquidity was in jeopardy, Putin had the Bank of Russia lend Trump 100s of millions, which is a sure way to get Trump's attention.

Trump would never have qualified for a security clearsnce but he has to have one. But it's a real risk to the free world letting him have one.

America should send Benedict Arnold Trump to Siberia to rot in some g*dd&mn Gulag!

Now he's encouraging his puppet master to pour on the bombs on Ukraine now that Ukraine isn't getting Patriot air defense systems and not getting any US satellite data and with Musk screwing around with Ukraine's Starlink comms. And Maxsr's now switched sides and giving Putin the satellite info that it had been giving to Ukraine!

What a great bloody negotiator the turncoat president is!

President "Benedict Arnold" Tchump will eventually be successfully impeached once the GOP understand he's a phony scam artist and a traitor to democracy's values.

On those tariffs, the stock market just took a dive. What a vote of confidence on the economy of Dumbass & Dumber & Musk the Ghoul.

Time to swap our US/Ukraine lapel pins and start wearing Russian Federation lapel pins? President Benedict Arnold would like us to. He doesn't want Putin to have any doubt about Trump's turncoat commitment.
