#Legislative

[usnatarchives]

The National Archives holds over 13.5 BILLION pieces of paper, and some fascinating pieces can be found in The Center for Legislative Archives. In recognition of #AmericanArchivesMonth, explore the records available within The Center: https://archives.gov/legislative. The Center for Legislative Archives preserves and makes available the historical records of the U.S. House of Representatives, the U.S. Senate, and other legislative branch organizations and commissions.

The Center uses these historical records to enhance public understanding of Congress through reference and public outreach.

We'll share more about The Center and highlight some of their records throughout week!

Oh the fucking irony, a man who gets tax breaks and federal contracts whining about others doing the same. Mind the stocks of his companies jumped in price when DOGE was announced, he directly benefits from being in governmen. Boycott any and all Elon owned products and services, don't give him a single cent while he's stealing your tax dollars.

[Fakedex] Ferros 142: Legiceras [v3]

The latest entry for my Fakedex series, a three-region series that splits off from the official Pokémon games after B2/W2. Everything gen 6 and beyond is non-canon to my series, partially to make things easier on myself, and partially because I hate the direction Pokémon has taken.

I'm sure at least some here are familiar with my earlier work, especially that "Arceus Gospel Form" that I made back in 2016 (often incorrectly referred to as "Mega Arceus"). I used to be pretty dedicated to my Fakedex series, hoping to one day to work for Pokémon/Nintendo. Now though... I still enjoy it, and I'll still make Fakemon here and there, but it's not my main thing anymore.

Unfortunately, there isn't enough room for the full description or the Pokedex stat/entries, so you can see the full description here: https://www.deviantart.com/legendguard/art/Ferros-142-Legiceras-v3-1166658747

ELON MUSK "special" government employee alert

On Tuesday, millions of federal employees received an email from the Office of Personnel Management demanding that they either accept a huge set of changes to the workplace or resign. a copy of Musk gutting Twitter when he purchased it - you know the social media platform that has lost more than 60-80% of it's value.

Musk is acting without consulting Trump’s inner circle - this is what money can buy you if you offer to keep Trump out of jail.

Musk and a team of college age kids “have locked fed officials and employees out of computer systems that contain the personal data of millions of people. And security officers were suspended for trying to stop these people Who Have No Security Clearances.

Musk cronies are being put into the Office of Personnel Management, the General Services Administration and the Commerce Department.

The highest-ranking career official at the Treasury Department retiring in protest of Musk breaking into sensitive payment systems that disburses trillions of dollars - affecting the lives of tens of millions of Americans who, among other things, receive support from Social Security and Medicare.

Musk also had Investigators General removed, including a woman who was investigating his company Neuralink.

Musk forced out the Head of the Federal Aviation Administration was investigating Space X.

Musk and the Trump are attempting to take over both the Legislative Branch (Congress) and the Judicial Branch (The US Court System) - by STEALING the power of the purse from the House and Senate and OVERRIDING the power of the Courts by stating that they Will Not Follow Court Orders.

The Department of Justice is now threatening lawsuits against anyone who attempts to bring Musk and any of his cohorts to account.

Musk is in the General Services Administration terminating leases for federal offices. This will affect federal contracting and technology services (including those business rivals of Elon Musk) across the government.

Musk demolished Twitters value and sparked a mass exodus of users. It’s deeply disturbing to think what he could do to something as complex and consequential as the U.S. government.

You know how sometimes you don't really dare talk about politics with your family as a leftist because you know they'll look at you like you're just a naive child. Not because they're particularly racist but because they think the leftist sense of economy is that of idealists.

Well I do have one exception where I do so love stating my honest opinion. Especially with what's going on in France right now with the Legislatives. Because they're "scared" of Melanchon (biggest leftist figure right now) especially the possibility of him becoming prime minister. See imo LFI, JL Melanchon's party is like.... The bare minimum of what the left should aim for (turns out the general left alliance, NFP, managed to dilute this bare minimum but they still keep the skeleton so, it's...something). The thing is, if I could get the Prime minister I wanted that's part of the NFP, we'll I'd chose one of my two darlings which are Philippe Poutou and Olivier Besancenot.

Which usually gets me the best fucking reactions. Because they're like technically much more threatening as they're much farther on the left (furthest on the left spectrum of the NFP alliance), but they're also.... So chill and the people in my family I talk to don't know which they'd think is the worst. And it shows on their faces and in their voices.

And just... They think I'm even more naive now but the troll in me can't help but think "worth it" (also I'd think logically Bompard and Panot are just as likely to be chosen as prime minister within LFI if not more than JLM but that's my opinion)

Brooks and CAPEHART of the Republican Republican Party passing through Trump's legislative agenda

David Brooks: Yes. It is not an effort to destroy Harvard. Now I have beef with Harvard like us all. I went. Harvard Square has a bookstore called COOP. And I used to go there and there is a part where Harvard faculty has a book. And I had thrilled this section. I should not admit this on TV. But Sam Huntington, Eo Wilson, Skip Gates, Helen Vendler, like this legendary scholars. And you will…
