 You might know us from the guides we have put together, like the de-risking guide and the UX guide. Governments all around the world have used them to make services more accessible and add more value to the public — all while saving millions of dollars. You can still find them here: 18f.org/guides/

Right, so, let’s be clear what’s going on here. A handful of shameless hacks are hoping to cozy up to power by putting an academic gloss on Trump’s crackpot notions. This allows political actors to pretend the plain meaning of the Birthright Citizenship Clause is fiercely contested by legal scholars

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.

The administration got rid of 18F under the cover of night. People who own skyscrapers are afraid of 100 people who make websites. Not because of the latest tech fad, but because we proved the government can be fixed, the government can be made better and the government can work for the people.

Let’s build a stronger Democratic Party that delivers for working people—across all our communities. Let's organize year-round, communicate everywhere, and remind everyone what we really stand for.

Genuinely curious how many people are grok-ing the AI subplot in Arcane. IMHO it’s a borderline masterful way of addressing it without being overly didactic.

One thing they're absolutely right about, and it is the tip of the iceberg. You actually look under the hood, it will immediately radicalize you that we should either have single-payer / UHC or get rid of insurance all together and replace it w/direct payments. www.startribune.com/rfk-jr-weigh...
