Trump is protecting women again:
The Trump regime is pressuring Romania to lift restrictions on the Tate brothers.
Tristan and Andrew Tate have been charged with sexual misconduct, organized crime, and money laundering.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

If you do shitty things against women, minorities, gays, trans - Trump will protect you.
If you are a corrupt politician, Trump will protect you.

I don't see how Trump's heinous policies will result in anything other than people protesting and probably even in the civil unrest.
So maybe it's starting:
Protestors at the Kennedy Center protest Donald Trump’s take over of the center.

Well that's the plan, they need some excuse to declare an emergency and impose martial law.

FDA medtech regulators reportedly among latest Trump layoffs
https://www.massdevice.com/fda-medtech-r...p-layoffs/
"FDA firings have an interesting relation to Musk’s Neuralink
Reuters reports that the FDA cuts extended to some agency employees reviewing Elon Musk’s Neuralink brain-computer interface (BCI) company.
The report said the firings included around 20 people in the FDA’s office of Neurological and Physical Medicine Devices. Several of those employees worked on Neuralink and other BCI devices, the report said, citing two sources with knowledge of the matter.
Reuters said both sources did not believe the Trump administration — and Musk as head of the Dept. of Government Efficiency (DOGE) — specifically targeted them due to their work on Neuralink’s regulatory submissions. The report, however, quoted former FDA official, Victor Krauthamer, expressing concern over the impact the cuts could have. Krauthamer spent more than three decades at the FDA and spent time as acting director of the office that reviews human trial requests for BCIs.
“It’s intimidating to the FDA professionals who are overseeing Neuralink’s trial,” said Krauthamer. “We should be worried about the whole trial, and the protection of the people in the trial.”"
As someone who develops neurosurgical devices this really stinks.

Quote:'Honestly terrifying': Yosemite National Park is in chaos
Hamstrung by President Donald Trump’s hiring freeze, hundreds of rescinded job offers and the threat of coming layoffs, the park is poised to enter its busiest months of the year severely short-staffed. Not only that, but the park’s day-use reservation system — created to protect park resources and improve the visitor experience by reducing crowding — appears unlikely to return this year.
Worst of it all, say current and former National Park Service employees, nonprofit leaders and other Yosemite experts interviewed by SFGATE, is that decades of efforts to protect the park’s ecosystems for future generations are being derailed.

Only YOU can prevent forest fires. The Park Service doesn't have the staff.
