Happy Friday to everyone except the CEO of PBS Paula Kerger who was one of the first to voluntarily get rid of all their DEI programming and its POC staff and is now being targeted for complete federal defunding anyway 🤡

For years, Trump has attacked our election security—most infamously on Jan 6 (and nearly every day since). Now, his team is slashing funding for the very agencies that protect against election cyberattacks. Pamela Smith warns: Our democracy only works when our elections work.

We can’t afford to defund election security
Not taking election security seriously irreparably harms our democracy.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

UPDATE: From the original poster of the letter on FB:
I just now got off the phone with Allan Schappert, the author of this letter. He’s not on social media. When I shared how his letter has travelled, he said, “I’m gobsmacked.” He wrote to share his story, and perhaps to let other veterans know they’re not alone, and he’s amazed that he touched a nerve. “The pen is mightier than the sword!” exclaimed this pilot who once wielded the nuclear sword at the controls of an American B52. Whew. He thanks you, Peter, for sharing his words. Allan and I have plans to grab a beer together this weekend.
