Analysis: "Whatโs Preventing a United Front against the Trump Regime?"
"The magnitude of the damage underway is virtually impossible for any individual to fully grasp."
"The federal government is now in the clutches of massively cruel & antidemocratic forces that have no intention of letting go."
However, Dems' "undue deference to party leaders" is hampering "real leverage against MAGA madness."

Main take-away for me (!) on switching to /e/OS*:
- when you do not use features which require a YubiKey, all should be relatively easy
- except for... contacts (when you have been using G. Contacts for 20 years) Long story short: DAVx5 fixed connection issues.
- I thought I fixed it by using Firefox, but apparently Github uses a different implementation of Yubi than Google, so the first one works, the latter no.
- I really do use a lot of Google services
