This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I’m Jewish and the son of Jewish refugees who immigrated to America, so some might accuse me of seeing antisemitism where it doesn’t exist. So it’s sadly reassuring to see that the great historian Timothy Snyder saw the Oval Office debacle the way I did: open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

There is no government waste. I stand by that. Every dime spent is vital to somebody. Getting a gov grant is like pulling teeth. It’s never enough funding. Even our military has unmet needs. We don’t have a spending problem, we have a revenue problem. Not all of us are paying our fair share.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

We're not done yet | 18F

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

More evidence Musk and the DOGE Boys have no clue as to what they are doing. I hope they don’t purge those 150 year olds.

I’m told US Capitol switchboard is swamped and that it’s better for us constituents to call rather than than emailing or writing a letter. Call and leave a message, talk to an intern, whatever is on offer, but the volume of communication, is noted and it matters. 202.224.3121 ☎️ We live in hope!

Needed this so much right now. I just called out the fact that Kendrick Lamar carried that red, white, and blue theme through. He owned it! My fam knew what that meant. THEY don’t want us here, but they do not own the flag. “Not Like Us”

Once again, Teen Vogue steps up with the activist journalism we need. "ICE agents almost never carry judicial warrants, so they wait to make an arrest when the person leaves their home or car. And in every case, when the agents realized they were being watched, they abandoned their stakeout."
