If the US Dept of Education is disappeared, who will enforce Section 504 in schools?

I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.

To fall asleep, I picture every CEO of every company secretly meeting with the military. And the CEOs all say “this is bad for Q2!” And the military says “look how they’ll treat us when we’re vets!” Then, with their own self-interest at heart, they all do something magnificent that saves us.

My latest for the @thebarbedwire.bsky.social makes the case that Trump and Musk are marching us into a "new fascism" that may not look exactly like its historical predecessors but nevertheless draws on the ideology to rend the democratic state and rule of law. thebarbedwire.com/2025/02/13/e...

Great sports reporters are an important part of the resistance to authoritarianism, making sense of the few events and performances millions of people still collectively see, regardless of the algorithms and info silos we’ve put ourselves in. www.erineenie.com/sports-repor...

“Up-and-coming journalists may steer clear of politics, opting instead to write about sports or culture.” Ah yes, there’s famously no politics in sports or culture

Made a deal with myself that I could only doomscroll if I’m riding my bike trainer and I’d like to announce that I’m ready to take on the Tour de France.

Forget yoga. Scouring your kids’ school district budget to see how much federal aid it gets is the new cool mom thing.

Proud of my CA school district for sending this out rn. All kids deserve a quality education regardless of immigration status.

It has come to my attention, after my child made me read her a book about poop, that there is likely someone who collects all of Trump’s literal crap. Like their job is Presidential Poo Collector. Just thought I’d throw that out there for any intrepid reporters looking for a scoop. A poop scoop.

In October, I predicted big name journos would no longer need legacy media to have an audience. I hope they find independent success. (I’d still be wary of not owning my platform.) www.erineenie.com/predictions-...
