As Elon runs back to Tesla with his tail between his legs, one of the main authors of Project 2025 is set to take over DOGE. This is continuity for DOGE. Russ Vought leading the operation while Elon is part-time will still be just as dangerous for working people.

A fired fed talking about DOGE, quoted by @marcfisher.bsky.social: "They did no assessment of what works. They didn’t ... find out what made the most sense to cut. They’ve damaged agencies so badly that now they can say it’s not working. Maybe that’s what they wanted all along.” wapo.st/3RVdlKt 🎁

I simply cannot understand why a subcommittee claiming to be about delivering on government efficiency is holding a political stunt to attack trans people today. Standing strong with @nwlc.org and @equalityfed.bsky.social today – and against any sinister attempt to divide us.

This is a generational moment. Every time labor has been knocked down, we get back up stronger than before. Throughout the first 100 days of the Trump admin, America’s unions have been relentlessly fighting back against the billionaire takeover, and we’re winning.
