Don’t let the arrest of a Federal Judge distract you from the announcement that ICE can enter anyone’s home without a warrant to look for migrants.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Trump’s latest threat against me is as real as his 'perfect' phone calls and 'biggest crowds ever.' More whining, more victimhood, zero follow-through. Either do it or keep crying, fatso. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/the-tantru...

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

Imagine DOGE opens your mail and finds your household electric bill. To eliminate this cost, they burn your house down without warning. Then they total up the bills that, as a homeless person, you will never again pay. On its website, DOGE boasts about the money it has saved you.

The administration got rid of 18F under the cover of night. People who own skyscrapers are afraid of 100 people who make websites. Not because of the latest tech fad, but because we proved the government can be fixed, the government can be made better and the government can work for the people.

Sad to share the news that our colleagues at 18F were illegally fired overnight (emails coming in around 1am Sat.). About 90 people. 18Fers are technologists, like USDSers, and often would be co-deployed or work across different parts of the same agency.

If you're a first-time parent, tell your kids: Even if you are not the President, you need to - be kind, - keep your word, - be empathetic, - know right from wrong, and - always do what's right. So in the future, when you become the President, you'll know how to lead.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

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

👂We're hearing from Feds who are receiving the "what did you do last week" email from an unidentified "HR" account. To be clear, Feds will spend time (ehem, money): 📝 Writing and sending the email 🤖 Download and then upload ~2M emails to an LLM ...efficient use of tax dollars indeed 🤔💸
