It’s 2025, and the American worker is under siege. Not from automation, not from globalization, no, this time, the hit is coming straight from Washington. The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), once meant to protect workers from corporate greed, has been hijacked by Trump’s administration and turned into a wrecking ball for labor rights. The…
The wolves have been let loose. The one agency that stood between you and the financial predators, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), is being gutted, stripped for parts, and left to rot. What does that mean for you? The banks, credit card companies, payday lenders, and mortgage servicers just got a free pass to…
The American education system has always been a battlefield, but now the tanks are rolling in, and they’ve got the Department of Education in their crosshairs. Trump’s administration, backed by Musk’s efficiency cult, is gutting public schools, rerouting money to private institutions, and leaving millions of kids to fend for themselves in underfunded, crumbling classrooms….
I don’t know what’s worse, the smell of a hospital waiting room or the stench of corruption rolling out of Washington. Either way, something foul is in the air, and if you rely on medication to stay alive, you might want to start hoarding your prescriptions now. The Food and Drug Administration, once the last…
I woke up today to the sound of jackhammers, metaphorical, of course, unless you count the endless din of democracy being torn apart one policy at a time.

Project 2025, a far-right blueprint for dismantling federal protections and restructuring government to favor corporate elites and conservative ideologues, is no longer just a…
The Food and Drug Administration, the agency tasked with keeping your food safe, your drugs effective, and your medical devices from exploding inside you, is being systematically transformed into something entirely different. Under Project 2025, the Trump administration, and Elon Musk’s unelected Department of Government Efficiency, the FDA is being reprogrammed into a tool for corporate deregulation and political ideology.

By Justin Jest – Gonzo Journalist, Reluctant Realist, Connoisseur of Chaos The financial industry’s worst nightmare used to be the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), an agency designed to keep banks, lenders, and credit card companies from screwing you over. But nightmares, like regulations, can be erased. Project 2025, the right-wing manifesto for dismantling government…
