    Wow, Elon Musk told his company to flag Bill Burr just for roasting him. That same Elon Musk who half of you told us is buying Twitter to make speech freer. This is starting to get eerie.

    Bill asks: How is it ok for a South African (foreign) guy to come to our country and decide we need less freedom?

    The irony in that statement is just too much for a Middle Easterner.

    @deb4rockets all fake savings. Firing millions of workers just so he can run fake advertisements. Unbelievable how his cultists think he's somehow saving money

    [The Guardian] Judge orders Trump admin to rescind memo directing mass firing of federal workers

    William Alsup says US Office of Personnel Management lacks power to order firings, including those of probationary employees

    A federal judge in California has ruled that the Office of Personnel Management must rescind memos directing agencies to carry out mass terminations of probationary employees, stating that the agency exceeded its legal authority.

    OPM is also required to inform other federal agencies that it had no power to issue such a directive.

    While the ruling does not prevent individual agencies from terminating probationary employees at their discretion, the judge emphasized that OPM cannot mandate such actions.

    Here is the thing
    IF Trump refuses. . . how do we stop him?
    What is the Mechanism to sTop a President gone amuck?
    Until now it has been the President's Conscience and obediance to the Law
    but this President does not appear to have either

    Federal Task Force to Combat Antisemitism Announces Visits to 10 College Campuses that Experienced Incidents of Antisemitism

    Friday, February 28, 2025

    For Immediate Release
    Office of Public Affairs

    The Federal Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism announced that it will be visiting 10 university campuses that have experienced antisemitic incidents since October 2023. Created pursuant to President Trump’s Executive Order on Additional Measures to Combat Anti-Semitism, the Task Force set as its first priority to eradicate antisemitic harassment in schools and on college campuses.

    Leading Task Force member and Senior Counsel to the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Leo Terrell informed the 10 universities yesterday that the Task Force was aware of allegations that the schools may have failed to protect Jewish students and faculty members from unlawful discrimination, in potential violation of federal law. Mr. Terrell said he intends for the Task Force to meet with university leadership, impacted students and staff, local law enforcement, and community members as it gathers information about these incidents and considers whether remedial action is warranted.

    “The President, Attorney General Pamela Bondi, and the entire Administration are committed to ensuring that no one should feel unsafe or unwelcome on campus because of their religion,” said Mr. Terrell. “The Task Force’s mandate is to bring the full force of the federal government to bear in our effort to eradicate Anti-Semitism, particularly in schools. These visits are just one of many steps this Administration is taking to deliver on that commitment.”

    The 10 universities identified by the Task Force are: Columbia University; George Washington University; Harvard University; Johns Hopkins University; New York University; Northwestern University; the University of California, Los Angeles; the University of California, Berkeley; the University of Minnesota; and the University of Southern California.

    If you have been discriminated against, you can file a complaint with the Civil Rights Division at civilrights.justice.gov. President Trump’s Executive Order can be found at www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/additional-measures-to-combat-anti-semitism/.

    More 4d chess from Trump.

    Donald Trump is not a serious person.


    Looming Trump Tariffs Make US Steel Too Expensive at Home

    US President Donald Trump’s threatened steel tariffs that don’t kick in for two weeks are impacting US buyers who already are seeing American-made metal cost more than imports.

    The benchmark price for domestic steel touched more than $900 a ton this week, up almost one-fourth this year, in anticipation of the imminent 25% levy on foreign supplies. That surge means US prices have now moved above par with imported steel, according to people active in the market who asked not to be named discussing non-public information.

    “What we’re seeing so far happen is mills capitalize on the tariffs and uncertainty of tariffs, and they’ve been able to raise prices such that at $900 a ton it’s more than what would happen to price with an actual 25% tariff implemented,” Timna Tanners, an analyst at Wolfe Research, said during a telephone interview. “This isn’t the desired outcome Trump has articulated.”

    Metal shipments are pouring into the US from all over the world, including cargoes from Egypt, Algeria, Malaysia, Brazil and Vietnam, according to a person familiar with the flows. The influx comes amid relatively anemic US steel demand as high borrowing costs make it expensive for buyers to move ahead with projects in everything from construction to appliance manufacturing.
