Upon receiving the news that four of the City's Deputy Mayors have submitted their resignations, I sent the following letter to @nycmayor.

When I heard Musk say this on Tuesday, my assumption was that it was a programming issue. Because I can code and have written to databases and because I am familiar with other examples of default values being misinterpreted. Yet somehow Musk isn't.

NJ RESIDENTS: There's a very important bill in the NJ Assembly, which would make incremental growth via small 4-to-5-story buildings more feasible & allow new apartments to have more light & air: A4972 would allow towns to permit single-stair buildings <6 floors. njleg.state.nj.us/bill-search/...

A new statement from the White House makes it clear they’re going to reverse the Biden administration’s reforms on overdraft fees and blocking medical debt from being listed on credit reports.

i wonder why these guys hate the CFPB so much ohh

To all those saying "shouldn't we root out government inefficiency? What's wrong with DOGE?" a quick background on Constitutional law and why the WAY it is being violated exposes the true motives of the criminals:

It’s just bleak that there’s a considerable amount of people who are like “thank goodness the worlds richest human being is stopping the tyranny of the consumer financial protection bureau and that guy who collects atmospheric data”

This is why Musk is so upset his Hitler youth got exposed.

The #PEPFAR tracker is following the real time impact of each passing day of the funding suspensions spurred by the USAID funding freeze.

The Trump admin wants to imprison AMERICAN CITIZENS in a foreign country against their will. They want a prison where the US constitution has NO jurisdiction. El Salvador was specifically chosen because it's a Democratically back-sliding nation. Make no mistake, this is a direct step towards fascism

I work in nuclear missile controls and I just got called in to meet my new boss, @AryanGroyper1488. He told me I could keep my job if I explained to him why I shouldn't be fired without using any words of Arabic descent. Turns out "I protect the nuclear arsenal" doesn't count.

It’s pretty amazing that these guys are going with “Covid, which wasn’t a big deal, is the worlds greatest bio weapon, that we shouldn’t have cancelled school for a semester for, but also China did almost destroy the world, but don’t forget it’s also just the flu”

NEW: WIRED has identified six young men, all between the ages of 19-24, who have negligible experience but are now playing critical roles in Elon Musk's takeover of the U.S. government. From @telliotter.bsky.social @zoeschiffer.bsky.social @timmarchman.bsky.social www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Intelligence officials are starting to leak to me now too. Here’s a memo Defense Intelligence Agency personnel received instructing them to suspend observances including: - Holocaust Remembrance Day - MLK Day - Juneteenth
