@susancollins1981.bsky.social It blows my mind how many people think that I have anything to do with Susan Collins.

DOGE cut off payments for the electricity, cell phone, and internet service of U.S. government employees who work in a high-risk area in Central America. Meanwhile, DOGE apparently plans to spend $25,000 to install a washer and dryer for their own personal use in a federal office building in DC.

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to suggest that we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Should the US government be using your tax dollars to buy massive quantities of crypto? We asked a billionaire crypto whale who recently bought a membership to Mar-a-Lago.

I was just on American flight 3083, for LaGuardia. As we touched ground, the plane suddenly sped up and climbed back up. The plane strained to quickly gain altitude. After something like five harrowing minutes, the pilot finally announced, “there was a plane in the ground that was too close to us.”

i am reading an analysis of john yoo’s work justifying unilateral presidential authority over foreign affairs when he was in the bush OLC, and i am once again struck by shoddy dishonesty of his output! he moves as close as you can to just making stuff up without fully crossing the line.

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year. “'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'" Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/u...

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

Today in Black History: On Feb. 28, 1859, the Arkansas General Assembly passed a bill that banned the residency of free Black Americans and mixed-race Blacks anywhere within the bounds of Arkansas. IOW, they had to chose between exile and enslavement. Pure evil. #BlackHistoryMonth #EconomicBoycott

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.
