Good question. Has someone explained how fed workers can proceed?

Trump’s assault on the civil service was two-fold: grievously violate the rights of federal workers, then hobble the agencies responsible for protecting those rights so workers have no legal recourse.
Now the 4th Circuit says workers may be able to win relief straight from the courts instead.

Philosophy is a great thing for people to study but if it's the only elective you take while getting your engineering degree it can be a disaster.

the Cuyahoga River comeback has long been an international environmental success story.
something we can lose sight of so close to home is the intersection of 3 people and personalities in Cleveland in the late 1960s who led the comeback charge. neorsd.medium.com/sparking-cha...

This is true of domestic violence but also of situations involving groups of people and even entire nations. As Desmond Tutu famously said, “If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.”

ICE (or maybe DEA? who knows?) shows up again in the same quiet Berkshires town, at a landscaping job site.
This time business owners confronted the agents, demanded they show warrants or IDs. The agents refused.
“I felt like I was in North Korea,” owner says.

I'll add that I've directly seen several cases in my own reporting where the White House put out a story abt uni negotiating/trying for a deal that was open and shut false. And reporters ran with it.

A lot of it is specific to ICE and other police entities inside DHS. Within the federal govt they're notorious. More capable, experienced people go to the real fed law enforcement orgs. ICE/DHS police tends to get the rejects who just want a badge and swagger.

The unprecedented aspect of the attack is that the drones appear to have been launched from trucks inside Russia – and the drivers reportedly had no idea what they were transporting. Maskirovka is a game both sides can play. 2/2

An excoriating response from the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention:
“The US-backed distribution of aid in Gaza is a weaponization of food and a grotesque mockery of humanitarianism.
“Such action is as far away from humanitarian aid as one can go. We call it what it is: A tool of genocide.”
