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?

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

I've been saying this for years, but Rubio is a disgusting traitor. After this, there no longer exists a counterargument. He is not "serious." He is not a "statesman." He is not "the adult in the room." He was installed at State to humiliate himself before dictators & he's off to a great start.

Only a handful of the pieces, podcasts, publications in my latest #ScholarSunday thread deal with the current mis-administration. But I can think of no better way to celebrate Not My President's Day, along with protests & much else, than to share great public scholarship. @hcrichardson.bsky.social 🗃️

The idea that it's okay for presidents to lie is fairly new. The current president is so far afield from what was shocking at the time from Eisenhower, Nixon, Johnson...yet today it's a collective shrug. Excellent with @hcrichardson.bsky.social and @jenrubin.bsky.social #PresidentsDay #MustListen

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.
