I used to work for the federal government. This is exactly the type of email that we would have assumed was a phishing attempt or testing us to see if we’d get suckered.

1/My statement on learning through news reports that my #securityclearance has just been revoked.

Nightmarish evil.

We were just told that they won’t let us in. They are denying entry to 2 dozen members of Congress. Elon Musk has all our private information & we have no idea what he’s doing with it. This is happening completely behind closed doors. HELL NO. It’s illegal. We demand oversight!

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

I mean, such a good friend that he amplifies the Great Replacement Theory and uplifts white supremacists and neo-Nazis on the regular…

On Martin Luther King Jr Day, we shall remember the woman who shattered ceilings to be to the first Black/Asian woman to be the American Vice President. Thank You Kamala Devi Harris for all of your work these past 4 years 🙏🏾 #kamalaharris #martinlutherkingjr #blacksky

Both halves of my family came through Ellis Island in the last 100ish years. My husband just got his citizenship a few years ago. Are we no longer Americans? Is my daughter not American as he wasn’t a citizen when she born?

The cruelty is the point…

Or work for the federal government and had to follow ethics rules as a Congressional staffer…

i'm moving away from a two column/week pace in favor of a single extended argument. here is this week's.

What’s frustrating about this is it’s still a dishonest framing. It’s not just insurance workers who would be impacted. Look at the collective freak out trying to lower the pay for anesthesiologists…imagine that but for every medical specialty. We aren’t prepared for that conversation.

Nearly every single Republican voted against releasing the Matt Gaetz ethics report. Remember this the next time they pretend to care about protecting minors.

Finally started getting interactions on Twitter and immediately got misogynistic and antisemitic responses. Not worth it. Happy to make the jump to bluesky.
