I can’t overstate how dangerous this is. ‘White House reviewing Smithsonian exhibits to make sure they align with Trump’s vision’ Translation: Donald Trump and his administration are continuing their assault on Black history, and on any history that doesn’t center and glorify the white man…

If you have a Republican senator please take the time to call and write them. Regularly. They won't care about the cruelty, so hammer them on the deficit. Tell them the only way to avoid bankrupting the country is to ditch the tax cuts for billionaires.

Just a friendly reminder that while voters won't have another chance to remove Schumer until 2028, the Dem senators can remove him at any time if they just get together. He may be able to stay in the senate, but he doesn't have to remain leader. It's time for something new.

The 1986 Chernobyl accident was the result of a flawed reactor design that was taken over by inadequately trained party apparatchiks who shut down the power-regulating system & cut emergency safety systems to perform tests. What DOGE is doing is the Chernobylization of a flawed federal government.

The goal is to terrorize federal workers into quitting. That’s it. Constant changes. Canceling work from home then closing offices. Laying off probationary employees. It’s designed to break the government. Then privatize it for profit. It’s not efficiency. It’s collapse. Only peasants will suffer.

it’s so bad I’m getting “political” on LinkedIn
As a former consultant to about a dozen federal agencies, I know as well as anyone that there is room for improvement in effectiveness and efficiency across our government.
Every problem requires a different tool, and improving how government works - a central focus of my career - requires a broad array of tools.
DOGE's actions, however, are like a doctor using a machete when they should've used a consultation with the patient, an MRI, and a scalpel.
Sure, the doctor may have gotten rid of some cancerous tissue in the foot, but now they've amputated a leg. And without anesthesia.
I don't pretend to know what comes next, but I know that such unstrategic sloppiness creates even more risk to our national security, our economy and our society overall.
You, too, will be affected — if you haven't been already.
Devoted public servants protect our communities from disasters, keep our airplanes safely in the sky, combat child trafficking, and ensure our water is safe to drink.
Don't mistake these mass layoffs as affecting only "other people," as their impact will ripple outwards in the weeks and months to come. This is only the beginning.
