When I cast my vote, I’m representing the nearly 8 million people in Washington state. In this democracy their voices count for something—so you better believe I am not handing over my vote in exchange for nothing. I am voting NO on the House Republicans' slush fund CR.

Excellent thread by @jrothst.bsky.social refuting the facts of this op-ed. Also, what an odd choice for this writer to use their time, expertise, and access to the NYT editorial page at this moment. Of all the things that could be said...

There’s been a lot of talk recently about cutting funding and staffing at the IRS. New work from the Budget Lab shows that if the IRS shrinks by 50% we estimate that this would result in 350 billion net forgone revenue over the 10-year budget window. 1/ @budgetlab.bsky.social

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

I’m struck by the Trump administration’s attempt to redefine equality as discrimination against white people. This is a deeply racist idea that equal outcomes must be unfair, assuming white people are naturally at the top of the hierarchy. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/11/c...

NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more. The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law. No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

The Trump admin is going after students who have used their first amendment, Constitutional rights. This is unacceptable. Deporting legal residents solely for expressing their political opinions is a violation of free speech rights. Who's next? Citizens? apnews.com/article/colu...

Fwiw one thing university faculty can do is provide simple explainers for their students on how federal funding works and how cuts to higher ed & endowment taxes will concretely damage their education and possibly spike tuition costs Many students don’t know how university finances work!

They want federal employees to suffer psychological abuse and not speak to press about it. It’s not difficult to imagine them coming after members of the media next. Scary shit, but silence is not an option.
