I don't really know how to shout this from the rooftops any louder: If this actually happens, it would spell the end of U.S. numerical weather prediction--the scientific models, run on supercomputers, used to create virtually all weather forecasts. www.axios.com/2025/0...

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Here I react to the shameful behavior of American leaders and media toward the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share. snyder.substack.com/p/five-failu...

I thought the whole point was to elect leaders who will make our lives better. All they’ve done is make life as miserable as possible.

Dear #MAGA when they cut your Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, and SNAP, when they take away your overtime & unemployment benefits & cut your wages, when your food is no longer safe to eat, know that we liberals/Dems weren't fighting against you, we were fighting for you.

Virtually guaranteeing more loss, suffering, and deaths of Americans. Why would you deconstruct the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration? The people who track storms and offer warnings? If not to stoke chaos and invite privatization and authoritarianism?

You mean the water he dumped into the ground, preventing farmers from using it this summer? There was no pipeline, the water couldn’t get anywhere near L.A.

"Amazon deliveries." This is Jason Calacanis, a venture capitalist & prominent Musk toady. And he does not know a big percentage of Amazon deliveries are made by the USPS. I will never get over how stupid the people at the top of US society are.

Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.

Trump just laughing it up with his reprehensible Commerce Secretary about selling US citizenship to Russian oligarchs for $5 million. Disgusting. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Trump is SHUTTING DOWN all 8000 EV chargers at federal facilities These EV chargers were already bought, paid for with our tax dollars, installed, and operational THIS is what real government waste looks like And what does Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, think of this?

I’m kinda blown away by all these TikToks of people showing up to Republican reps’ town halls & letting them have it over Musk/Trump/DOGE. It seems grassroots. If it becomes a lasting trend to go to town halls, shout down people who are lying to you, and post it online, we might all survive this.
