A local nonprofit found out that NOAA cancelled a grant for $75k. Last month, NOAA published a news update on how they were restoring the Chesapeake Bay with this same org (ERP). It's not national news, but the ERP shouldn't have to lose money already spent. www.fisheries.noaa.gov/chesapeake-b...

Judge Allison Burroughs is also assigned to the case regarding the government freeze of Harvard's NIH funding. I assume that she is already thoroughly done with the DoJ and their shenanigans. Thankfully, her poor clerks are already up to date on the relevant issues from the other case?

Justice Kagan just wrote "Fuck you, I'm done playing these games" dissent and called out Roberts for this ridiculous bullshit ruling regarding Humphrey's and the Fed. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Fuck yes. Hopefully those IoP employees get their jobs back, but at very least GSA has to return the building and the Board goes back to work.

Republicans are voting tonight at 10PM—in the dead of night—on their Big Bad Billionaire Bill: $1.1 trillion in tax cuts for the rich paid for by Medicaid cuts and hungry children. They hope you won’t notice. But we will call out Republican’s betrayal of America’s families.

Hear me out, we impeach Alito and Thomas. I mean, if we're doing Trump and Vance and everyone else ...why not?

Absolutely criminal behavior by the administration. How many deaths will be their hands?

Called my dad today to ask for some advice on how to deal with an employee: "Well, kid, you can never go wrong being kind. It might not go well, but at least you know you were kind." Very thankful I still can call and ask, and even more thankful that he's here to say things like this.

this is getting beyond cartoonish. I mean, who approved this and how did they do it with their mouth apparently wrapped around Trump's dick?

Anyone else wake up every morning dreading the morning news cycle? I really miss the days of not really having to worry about the continued existence of my Constitutional rights.

1. Secretary Pete sounded the alarm years ago. 2. The ATC community has been screaming into the void that the system was at risk and that they were overworked. 3. If you want good controllers, how about we don't work them 6 days a week? They retire as soon as they can because they're exhausted!

I've never felt more like an English major than when I described the Doll Discourse as a metaphor. (I didn't get good grades in my high school English classes.) But I felt comfortable because it's a metaphor for a very economic idea: Tariffs mean we're all going to get by with less.

Absolutely terrifying. At this point it is time to just close traffic to Newark so these controllers can have a break.

Not even Catholic, but I'm enjoying how many people are devastated that the new Pope actually cares about people. Let's take the victories when we can get 'em.
