Who did a self-portrait with a frown

You can make the dude look happy

Well, get used to this, without a unified plan of attack to blunt Trump, the left is simply going to use the judiciary to stop him and grind to halt his agenda.
They did that last time, and it isn't going to work this time: Trump should just ignore that judge Because the SCOTUS has already said a district level judge does not have the power to issue nationwide injunctions.

The Office of Personnel Management is testing a system to send emails to roughly 2.3 million federal employees from a single email address, according to the agency's website. The new feature would allow senior Trump administration officials to communicate directly with staff across the government, rather than relying on managers to distribute information.
The workers argue that the OPM must first review how this new system collects and stores personal information about government employees, according to the complaint filed in the US District Court for the District of Columbia.

To the managers: "What is exactly that you do here?"
But really, this gives away the game: they shield lower level staffers from requests and updates from the current POTUS so that they can keep doing whatever they're doing instead of doing what the POTUS wants.

=========
13 nominations.
Nominations are chosen by the branch members, and then winners are voted on by the whole body of the Academy.
So, that means that the support for Emilia Perez is wide and deep within the Academy. It doesn't always mean that big nominees make big winners (The Irishman got 10 nominations and won nothing, for instance), but it seems to indicate to me that the massive influx of new, younger, more diverse members is making itself very known.
I suspect that the movie will win some but not many awards. Hopefully, for the dude in particular. The Oscars have always been a farce as public spectacle. We were on the right track through the 2010s when the Academy decided to be insular. Last year's Oppenheimer win seemed to indicate a desire to be relevant again. We'll see if it lasts.

I suspect that the movie will win some but not many awards. Hopefully, for the dude in particular. The Oscars have always been a farce as public spectacle. We were on the right track through the 2010s when the Academy decided to be insular. Last year's Oppenheimer win seemed to indicate a desire to be relevant again. We'll see if it lasts.

I REALLY want the dude to win as it will be hilarious, but he has been nominated for every lead up award and hasn't won any, which is never a good indicator for the coming Oscar winner. Demi Moore is the current fav at -100 with Mickey Madison second at +100, the dude is +800.

He has a history of stiffing his vendors and workers...So fed employees?? probably.
how ruthless would it be of all fed employees to reply 'yes to all' to his stupid email, and then not show up to work monday? Basically a 'paid' general strike like that, and that dumb fucker would be impeached in less than 60 days. Talk about rope to hang yourself with lol...
My first thought: He will say that the people who took the offer are disloyal, fire them, and have them fight for severance. Ask (former) Twitter employees how Musk treated them.
The whole thing is BS, but no additional money has to be allocated; IF it’s real, people who accept would be placed on paid admin leave, which comes out of the money allocated for civilian pay. The savings would come in FY26 when those positions are eliminated .
This will go down as a major embarrassment for Trump.

They'll win. It'll be appealed. They'll win the appeal. It'll be appealed en banc. They'll win the second appeal. It'll be appealed to SCOTUS. Assuming SCOTUS can be bothered to do their job, they'll finally lose. Assuming Trump abides by the, almost certain, restraining order, the policy will be delayed years and hundreds of thousands of dollars shall be wasted.
When the administration loses, they should announce that all employees will now assemble at 0600 in the parking lot and, after the roll is taken, any official communications from the President shall be read. The workday starts at 0900.

From IMDb:
Columbo's first name is never mentioned.
However, one episode briefly showed his badge, listing his full name as Frank Columbo.
A Canadian trivia game once claimed his first name was Phillip (although this was a deliberate and successful copyright trap).
Series co-creator William Link has said that as far as he is concerned,neither one is correct, and Columbo has no first name besides "Lieutenant".

Miss Linda got it from the library some years ago. But by mistake she got the "vision-impaired" version, in which every action taken by the characters is narrated in voice-over. After ten minutes of that, we gave up.
However! I do have a regular version lent to me by a former colleague who is an early Renaissance scholar, and liked teh film quite a bit. Maybe we'll watch it this weekend.

I think that was in the planning stages for the 1960s TV-movie Prescription: Murder, in which Gene Barry plays a doctor who murders his wife and disguises his girlfriend (Katherine Justice) as his wife to give him an alibi. No idea why the producers couldn't get Crosby; he'd have been an interesting choice.

What about the thousands who were censored and humiliated for speaking truth to power? Where does that leave them? “The axe forgets, but the tree remembers.”

The Emergency Alert System (EAS) is a national public warning system that requires radio and TV broadcasters, cable TV, wireless cable systems, satellite and wireline operators to provide the President with capability to address the American people within 10 minutes during a national emergency.
Broadcast, cable, and satellite operators are the stewards of this important public service in close partnership with state, local, tribal, and territorial authorities.
FEMA, in partnership with the Federal Communications Commission and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, is responsible for implementing, maintaining and operating the EAS at the federal level.

The executive order will allow the deportation of resident aliens — including students with visas — who broke laws as part of anti-Israel protests following the October 7th attacks in Israel...Wednesday's executive order is Trump's second focusing on anti-Semitism. He signed an executive order last week appeared to target foreign students who participated in pro-Hamas rallies following the October 7 attack on Israel.
The order calls for the removal of foreign visa holders who 'advocate for, aid, or support designated foreign terrorists and other threats to our national security."

Falk had quite the resume, even then. He'd garnered an Academy Award nom for playing killer Abe Reles in Murder, Inc., and had starred in his own lawyer series -- The Trials of O'Brien -- a couple of years after that.
Columbo was a character actor's dream role, especially since it was the lead.

I swear to you I spend about 8 minutes a year watching "political" videos (if you don't include MAGA girls Trump dancing and laughing at liberals of course), but I did see some of this one.
One of them says to her "what would you say my (aborted) child's feelings are about my abortion".
So the pro lifer answers and then the woman says "you don't get to speak for my child".
Sad on sooooo many levels.

Yes, everyone has heard. However, there have been MANY RIFs, base closures, and so on over many years affecting hundreds of thousands of federal workers. There were also no offers so generous in as far as $, time, and so on.
Again, here's the body of the letter, in part:
"If you choose to remain in your current position, we thank you for your renewed focus on serving the American people to the best of your abilities and look forward to working together as part of an improved federal workforce. At this time, we cannot give you full assurance regarding the certainty of your position or agency but should your position be eliminated you will be treated with dignity and will be afforded the protections in place for such positions.
If you choose not to continue in your current role with the federal workforce, we thank you for your service to your country and you will be provided with a dignified, fair departure from the federal government utilizing a deferred resignation program..."
