— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

My mother-in-law worked for a department store chain for decades and got company stock as her retirement plan. Before she retired, a larger company bought and stripped it of its assets. She got $53/month for her retirement and the big company made $$. This is what Musk intends for Social Security.

How do you “accidentally” fire someone? Can the media stop pretending these aren’t just incredibly stupid people making stupid decisions that they aren’t qualified (or legally allowed) to make?

Federal workers are the most committed patriots in America. Trump belittles them. Musk calls them parasites. MAGA thinks they’re all unqualified. They’re on the verge of losing their jobs. Their life’s work is being erased. And they will get up tomorrow and go serve the American people, anyway.

🚨 This is a direct message to Trump’s supporters that they can use violence and he will support/pardon them. Think Jan6 but anywhere and everywhere. We are in dangerous ground as this coup continues to unfold.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

Ending medical research will have far reaching negative effects. Medicines come from unusual or unlikely sources. The Musk/Trump regime has stopped medical research in its tracks at NIH. The entire world will pay for Musk’s ignorance in ending medical and scientific research at NIH. #ProudBlue
