He might not know why we're invading Venezuela either. Rubio said please, and Trump isn't going to say no to half his administration, so here we are.

The White House promises to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research
Congressman Joe Neguse claims the move is retaliation for Colorado's refusal to release former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters.

Could go in the climate thread, but there's talk of it also being "retaliation" for not releasing that one lady that Trump tried to issue an illegal pardon for.
I'm inclined to believe they were planning on doing this anyway.
Wonder who put this bug in his ear.... reclassifying Marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III, same as ketamine and Tylenol with codeine: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-order-reclassifying-marijuana-schedule-iii-drug-expected/
According to the article as it reads now, it's already been signed.

5-year-olds can't write. I think this is more like 8.People say Trump is the oldest president the US has had (79 years old) but in some ways he's also the youngest president the US has had (mental age of 5)

Per @garretthaake.bsky.social, the extremely tacky "presidential wall of fame" that lines the colonnade to the West Wing now has obviously-Trump-penned plaques insulting or praising the presidents.bsky.app
I could write when I was 5! Pretty standard kindergarten stuff, really....
When I was in kindergarten we did standardized test prep. It wasn't fun.
I remember being taught to write in kindergarten. Mostly because part of it was learning to write our names, and my last name is only three letters, so I could finish and go play faster than the other kids.
Basic literacy was a hard requirement for kindergarten up here.
Edit: back then... dunno about now though.

You got to do what you wanted when you were finished? When I was done with my work I had to sit there and stare at a wall until the bell rang.
I would have read a book but they said no.
Turns out one of the photos in the Epstein File dump that got released was actually a partially redacted publicity shot of Clinton, Michael Jackson and Diana Ross:

There must surely be enough pictures of Clinton in the actual files already?

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

We all knew Trump would be messing with the Epstein files, but I had only considered what he would be removing. Adding things to it hadn't even crossed my mind, and seeing as we're living in the age of deepfakes, it's very lucky they were dumb and lazy enough to do this instead.
Especially considering trumps propensity to use AI to indulge his dementia fantasies.
Regardless: now that the DOJ is technically releasing the files; opposition can go after the originals. Trump can excise or insert anything he wants and it'll be proven he's engaging in a cover up.

And with each new version, confidence in the list will fade. This isn't just a coverup, it's deliberate undermining.
Why would he waste effort hiding it when he's been shown repeatedly that he won't face consequences?
Pretty much, and even if he DOES live long enough to get dragged into court over it: he'll be completely checked out from the dementia. Trump will face no repercussions in any way. He'll get tax payer funded end of life care, or he'll get a state funeral.
He's fucked his kids over though. To the surprise of no one.
