Mike has been a friend of mine since we were young reporters at the @washingtonpost.com in the 1980s. He brims with talent, integrity and commitment to the truth. This is exactly what I expected and he had hoped he could stave off, which is a trash move by trash people. Throw them out.

Nebraska is going to get crushed between Tariffs and Medicaid cuts. They have to balance their state budget and it looks like at least a 200m shortfall this year. BEFORE tariff impacts. And Nebraska Republicans here ! Curious what you think www.1011now.com/2025/03/05/t...

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

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

For the past 18 months, the Anti-Defamation League has been calling out people who criticise Israel, accusing them of antisemitism. Yet they're willing to give Elon Musk the benefit of the doubt over his nazi salute. That's not 'a bit of grace'. that's a revealing double-standard
