    All they had to do fix things was restore the pre Trump tax rates and do sensible cost cutting. None of which gibes with the current plan of course.

    It's possible Trump has seen enough chaos and ups from El0n. One litmus test will be whether people continue to get fired for resisting DOGE.

    President Donald Trump convened his Cabinet in person on Thursday to deliver a message: You’re in charge of your departments, not Elon Musk.

    According to two administration officials, Trump told top members of his administration that Musk was empowered to make recommendations to the departments but not to issue unilateral decisions on staffing and policy. Musk was also in the room.

    these guys managed to lodge a lawsuit before they got canned

    “The threatened termination of Brehm from his position as President of USADF, whether by Marocco, President Trump, Director Gao, or any of the remaining Defendants, is unlawful. None of the Defendants is lawfully a member of the Board of USADF, and only the Board has the authority to remove Brehm from his position,” the plaintiffs said in the lawsuit, adding the “purported termination of Brehm and the purported appointment of Marocco are ultra vires and are clear violations of USADF’s organic statute.”

    The USADF in a statement also said it did not believe Marocco or DOGE officials were authorized to represent it.
    “The United States African Development Foundation (USADF) offices were entered today by Mr. Peter Marocco and others who we do not believe are authorized to represent the agency. USADF is fully complying with its statutory obligations,” USADF told The Hill in an emailed statement.

    SpaceX’s Starship spiraled out of control while in space during a test flight Thursday, marking thesecond launch in a row that the vehicle has run into a fatal problem on its way to orbit.

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) briefly haltedflights into major Florida airports and appears to have diverted some others out of caution of “space launch debris.” The agency told TechCrunch that it is requiring SpaceX to perform what’s known as a mishap investigation into the failure.

    The company launched Starship using its Super Heavy booster and things looked normal for the first eight minutes of the flight. The ship successfully separated and headed into space, while the booster came back to the company’s launchpad in Texas, where it was caught for a third time by the launch tower.

    But at around eight minutes and nine seconds into the flight, SpaceX’s broadcast graphics showed Starship lose multiple Raptor engines on the vehicle. On-board footage showed the ship started spiraling end over end over the ocean.

    “We just saw some engines go out, it looks like we are losing at ude control of the ship,” SpaceX communications manager Dan Huot said on the broadcast. “At this point we have lost contact with the ship.”

    Footage posted to social media showed the ship breaking up over the Bahamas and the Dominican Republic a few minutes later. The company posted to X that it “immediately began coordination with safety officials to implement pre-planned contingency responses.”

    has DOGE broken the US system of payment and can't fix it?

    this pause was only supposed to last for 15 days


    When an Ohio University international student woke up last Friday, he was expecting to see a deposit in his bank account, but he found an email in his inbox instead.

    Now, he’s scrambling to find money for rent, groceries and other living expenses – things that would normally be covered under the stipend he receives every month from his scholarship agency.

    The student is among thousands of people participating in one of the scholarship programs administered through the U.S. State Department who learned last week their funding has been frozen indefinitely.

    This includes U.S. and international students in the Fulbright program, one of the most prestigious scholarships in the world.

    Fulbright scholars received notice last Friday that their funding has been suspended indefinitely. [Screenshot from a Reddit post]This has left some U.S. students in foreign countries and international students in the U.S. feeling stranded. “It’s just the time where everybody’s just scared, like we don’t know what’s going to happen next,” said the OU student, John. This is not the student’s real name. He asked to remain anonymous because he receives a scholarship that is restrictive on what he can say. WOUB has verified his iden y.

    WOUB reached out to other students in affected scholarship programs but was told they had been informed not to talk to the media about the funding situation.

    The freeze was first imposed in mid-February and was supposed to last 15 days, which would have ended Feb. 27, but instead students received an email informing them the funding pause would continue until further notice.

    Anger at Elon Musk turns violent with molotov tails and gunfire at Tesla lots

    ...
    Since President Donald Trump’s inauguration, more than a dozen violent or destructive acts have been directed at Tesla facilities, according to court do ents, surveillance photographs, police records and local media reports reviewed by The Washington Post. The incidents come as Elon Musk has rocketed to prominence as Trump’s best-known backer and as a conservative provocateur in his own right. The ire directed at the tech billionaire online has increasingly spilled into real life, with vandalism directed at Tesla storefronts, charging stations and vehicles.

    In March, several Tesla superchargers at a shopping center in Littleton, Massachusetts, were set ablaze. Vandals in Maryland also spray-painted “No Musk” onto a Tesla building, alongside a swastika-like symbol. In February, a man brandishing an AR-style semiautomatic weapon fired at a Tesla storefront in Salem, Oregon. Just a few weeks earlier, investigators say, the same man attacked the same dealership by throwing molotov tails at Tesla vehicles and through the store window. He caused an estimated $500,000 in damages, according to court do ents.

    wildly indiscriminate and illegal

    wonder what's going to happen to the appropriated funds?

    The government is preparing to shed up to a quarter of its 360 million square feet of real estate in the coming months, an NPR analysis of DOGE's "receipts" page of lease terminations and lists of possible cuts circulating at federal agencies found.

    At the same time the General Services Administration, which manages federal real estate, is identifying property to divest, the agency has abruptly fired more than 1,000 workers and is targeting an overall 63% reduction in headcount at its Public Building Service division, according to multiple current and former GSA employees. They are among more than a dozen people who spoke to NPR for this story and requested anonymity because they fear speaking publicly would make them targets for reprisal from the Trump administration in their jobs and future employment prospects.

    Some current and former GSA employees told NPR they think the firings are illegal and that the proposed cutbacks are indiscriminate.

    "There's just been no time," said one GSA manager who was fired earlier this week. They said it appeared that the agency is just " cutting buildings and people without even, like, analyzing anything."
