"The Department of Government Efficiency, or #DOGE, has been trying to access the massive amounts of Americans' personal information held in databases throughout the federal government. Now, more than a dozen lawsuits are invoking a little known law from 1974 that was designed to safeguard exactly this kind of data from federal #overreach."
In an opinion handed down on Thurs morning, Judge John J. McConnell Jr. of the Federal Dist Court for RI said the suit came down to a case of executive #overreach, in which top admin ofcls had required agencies to withhold funds authorized by #Congress.
A memo from the WH #OMB [#RussVought of #Project2025] had demanded a pause on billions in grants until the admin could determine that the funding complied w/ #Trump’s priorities….

#Greenland, #Canada, #Panama, #Gaza - has this man’s megalomania got any limits?
And as much to the point, are there any assurances that he shows any signs at all of mental stability?
My partner, A long standing US refugee in Scotland once told me that both mental and physical heals checks were mandatory for El Presidento. I’m not so sure that they have (a) been carried out or (b) done so competently.
“Can True Promise III reshape Iran’s geopolitical fate?”
by Shivan Mahendrarajah in The Cradle
“A likely but for-now hypothetical military operation, True Promise III presents Iran with a critical opportunity to #neutralize US and Israeli #overreach in West Asia and secure a decisive settlement for its domestic challenges.”

USpol; Trump has no mandate
Remember that Trump and his allies' claims of a "mandate" aren't just inaccurate, they're part of a propaganda effort meant to convince you to comply.
This is part of how fascists take power: by claiming they already have it, even when they don't. They convince us to *give it* to them.
Do. Not. Comply.
Refute "mandate" claims wherever you hear them. Say Trump is overreaching.

"The 1970s reforms were developed to prevent a powerful, unaccountable, out-of-control #secret bureaucracy. They reined in executive #overreach, established congressional #oversight, ensured greater #accountability and have provided the legal basis on which the #intelligence community has operated for the past half-century."

In January 2020, Robert Williams was arrested by Detroit police for a crime he had not committed. The officers were acting on a tip not from a witness or informant. In fact, not from a person at all.
So, what's going on with the #GorhamSpur seems a lot like what happened with the #CMPCorridor (which #Mainers voted against). Despite public opposition, #MTA will say, "Oh, well we already bought most of the land, so we have to keep going!" The same tactic was used with the CMP corridor through the North Woods, when CMP said, "Well, we already started the project -- we plan on completing if, even if the public opposes it!"

In a Shelby-like act of defiance, the governor is invoking the state’s right to defend itself against what he sees as an invasion. #Abbott made national headlines when he seized the park in #EaglePass this month & shut out U.S. #Border Patrol agents who had long used the terrain as a staging point — action the governor’s supporters saw as a take-charge move, while his detractors viewed it as a dangerous #overreach of #state #power.

The article only talks about Apple but the proposed amendments of the IPA (sadly not the beer but the Investigatory Powers Act) would require any manufacturer WORLDWIDE to stop fixing a software bug which is exploited by UK law enforcement or secret services. Such an overreach is unprecedented.
They're so delusional to think they could enforce that worldwide.
"Your computerized electric car bricks itself in your driveway after downloading a software update, and has to be towed away because it’s impossible to repair. Have any of these things been improved in their function? No, quite the opposite. But they are more complex!"

This essay is framed as an analysis of the failure of the barrier between Israel and Gaza. But it draws more general lessons.

#DonaldTrump is trying to hide behind the #1stAmendment.
Guess what? This basic #civicright indeed is under attack in the #UnitedStates. But not as you may be made to think by rightwing #media outlets.
A real attack is unfolding in #MarionCounty, #Kansas. Here the local #police has raided both the editorial offices and the home of the veteran editor of the local newspaper in what looks to be an obvious #overreach to serve a #GQP politician.

The arrest warrants issued by #HongKong's *government* against eight #democracy and #civicrights activists are the latest example of crass #overreach by #China's #CCP.
EVERY democratic state under the #ruleoflaw has to ignore these arrest warrants. Additionally, chief executive #JohnLee and security chief #ChrisTang should be declared unwanted persons from here. They have shown their true faces and should not be welcome anywhere outside China and Hong Kong.

No higher education for the poor and minorities - unless they risk their lives in armed services beforehand.
No control over their own bodies for women.
What's next, #SCOTUS? When exactly did these reactionary judges got to call the shots and not elected #politicians?
This is blatant #overreach.

"The bunker, not the boardroom."
Nothing new with #reactionary idiots in the #UnitedStates: #minorities are welcome to fight the wars of the elites, but not to have a say - certainly NOT in corporate #Uhmerica.
This #Scotus is too bad for words and its #overreach is blatant.
