Unlike Twitter , @bsky.app has a public firehose that anyone can analyze. The numbers I posted aren’t from bluesky. They are from their party software. If you look at the post, it shows posts, follows, likes. All are real. That’s real transparency

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

“The U.S. Department of Agriculture said Tuesday that, over the weekend, it accidentally fired "several" agency employees who are working on the federal government's response to the H5N1 avian flu outbreak. The agency said it is now trying to quickly reverse the firings.”

It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

Anyone want to explain to me how it makes any sense that the US and Russia are trying to negotiate the end to the war in Ukraine without any sort of Ukrainian delegation?

On Friday, a federal judge extended the temporary restraining order that bars DOGE staffers from accessing US Treasury data. The proceeding lifted the veil on just how little is known about DOGE’s access to information—and where it has gone.

SCOOP: The top US election security watchdog has frozen all of its efforts to aid states in securing elections. The move represents the first major example of the country’s cyber defense agency accommodating Trump’s false claims of election fraud and online censorship.

Vivint consistently refuses to let people cancel their accounts, refuses to provide refunds for unauthorized charges, and has 1000’s of BBB complaints b/c of deceptive billing practices. Fun fact: you have to ASK to cancel. They can (and do) deny cancellations. How is this company allowed to exist
