Garcia: "Elon Musk is sending his unqualified DOGE staff to carry out this agenda across all these agencies. And in some cases, actually teenage staffers. No accountability, no experience, and problematic records. They're trying to rob you, and they're probably a minorrrrrr."

Tonight, the Snow Moon rises. 🌕❄️ Named for February’s deep snows, this full moon was also called the Storm Moon or Ice Moon in Old English, reflecting winter’s cold grip. Look below its glow tonight, and you may spot Regulus...one of the brightest stars in the sky. Moonrise: 17:06*

NEW — OMB temporarily pauses all agency grants and loans programs. Per copy of memo: "The use of Federal resources to advance Marxist equity, transgenderism, and green new deal social engineering policies is a waste of taxpayer dollars that does not improve the day-to-day lives of those we serve."

As this "pause" hits you and your project, institution, workplace, etc: TELL SOMEONE ABOUT IT. Contact your MoC, esp if they're a Dem. Contact a relevant advocacy group. Contact the press, local, regional, movement, trade - and not just for an LtE, for a story. Tell real life stories of harm.

Great piece illustrating how the Post editorial board are lowering themselves to Trump’s degraded standards rather than treating his nominees as they should if they believed their own reporters. (And not clear why endorsing Cabinet officials was called for when they could not endorse a President).

Like many, I was surprised and delighted by the French election results, proving that the far right can be beaten with the right messaging and coalition work. That carries some important lessons for the U.S. in November. I explain in today’s piece, link in the replies.

Remember in 2016 when North Carolina passed a trans bathroom bill and the NCAA punished them by removing the basketball tournaments scheduled in the state and now like 20 states have passed similar bills and the NCAA is silent?

BECAUSE (say it with me, kids): Abortion bans are not only a violation of the 14th Amendment, but the 1st Amendment as well. You cannot enshrine one specific religious perspective into law and impose it upon an entire diverse nation of people.

The intros literally told us ahead the jr Sen from frkn Ala would call Biden “dithering & diminished.” They wrote that before he kicked butt in his #stateoftheunion speech. Her speech was nervous, flaky & just bad. I need to turn her off now. Ugh
