THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “TRADE DEFICIT”—IT’S JUST CALLED “BUYING THINGS.” YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

There is absolutely no way Greenland should let in a representative of an overtly hostile nation, in fact the wife of someone explicitly threatening to “take” it. Turn her plane back.

Police are investigating a report of fake ICE agents targeting a Ukrainian grocery store. An SUV with an “ICE” decal circled Sunday—then bolted when security showed up. These impostors are appearing nationwide,, preying on people already living in fear— in the shadows. It’s calculated and cruel.

Technical question: if you don't have the power to fire someone, are they fired? If so, I have a list.... But seriously, this is a constant with the attacks on civil servants since Jan. 20th.

Look folks, when it comes to making good policy there are two primary questions that are foundational: 1. What is the experience that everyone should have? 2. What is the experience that no one should have? 🧪 #EduSky @aeraedresearch.bsky.social @aaas.org @cossa.bsky.social @fabbs.org @chronicle.com

Republicans have been advised to avoid in-person town halls after confrontations over layoffs go viral. Meaning those fucking cowards are ashamed to look their constituents in the eye after what they did. Don’t take no for an answer. If they refuse to talk to you go to them and demand answers...

Ya’ll Anchorage did it again. March from Town Square to senator’s office. The demand: an in person town hall. None of that online crap. Entire city block filled with angry constituents. Sullivan, Murkowski, Begich—set the date for a REAL town hall or Alaskans will.

One thing about the ridiculous email Musk sent to Federal employees: The focus should be less on how unfair the email was or how poorly employees were treated, because Trump doesn't give a shit. But if the focus is that Musk's incompetence has become an embarrassment to Trump, that he'd care about.

Belated thanks to my alma mater for hosting me. 👉It's the question I get constantly. "Why did publication A or B do this or that?" People, the ad-based revenue model that sustained newspapers -- and their relative independence -- for much of our young history is collapsing. Fast. go.msu.edu/MPk5
