How embarrassing that it was a woman (Amy) who knew that he was so misinformed that he confused the Iowa Hawkeyes with the Atlanta Hawks. Amy, my future Governor, was awesome! We know our sports in my State! What a sickening display of a petulant child. Please vote! 🗳️

“When food prices go up because farm workers go missing, that’s the ICE Tax. When construction grinds to a halt because no one is left to build homes, that’s the ICE Tax. When our elders can’t get the care they deserve because their caretakers and nurses are gone, that’s the ICE Tax.” #EndtheICETax

Five years ago, when a Seattle burger chain raised employee wages & benefits the Reicht wing lost their minds, screaming the result would be $20 burgers & the company would end in bankruptcy. Today, the chain is even more popular than ever. Never let them try to tell you a living wage can’t work.

I appreciate this, which articulates some of what was frustrating me during the peak of DOGE activity. DOGE was never compatible with producing public good because their motivations and methods were structurally opposed to the public's
A table contrasting civic tech and DOGE across roots, points of entry, motivation, role of government, structure & leverage, view of law/change, approach to public employees, and assumptions about building change. In general civic tech is more incremental, people focused, and bottom-up, while DOGE is technology-focused, anti-government, and top-down

This has always been my argument against using self-serve kiosks: in other businesses like gas stations you get a discount for self-service. Grocery and retail stores eliminate jobs to save money at the expense of customer service and convenience, but offer no discount as incentive.
