Laid-off IRS employee said he had voted for Trump: "I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason." www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/p...

Mark my words—He is going to try to shut down mail-in voting. When he does, we will sue and we will win. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

I don’t believe it.

Sell the team.

BREAKING — USDA says it accidentally fired officials working to combat bird flu and says it’s trying to rehire them www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog... by @allansmith.bsky.social

A labor economist told KCUR's Up To Date that Kansas City does not have enough available jobs in the area to make up for all the local federal workers getting laid off by the Trump administration.

Oscar campaigns getting crazier and crazier

Why are people still subscribed to this?

This is hugely important, contact your members of congress, especially Republicans, and tell them to not turn over our Social Security data to Elon Musk.

Yes, investigate the most popular member of the opposition. Pump her broader appeal with steroids. Barbara Streisand approves.

A quiet rebellion among Republicans representing working-class and low-income areas against Donald Trump’s legislative agenda has picked up some powerful new allies: US hospitals and conservative agitator Steve Bannon.

Omg

“two-thirty o’clock”

reading this sure is a trip

Currently reading: “Little Bosses Everywhere” by @bridgetgillard.bsky.social, a history of the bizarro MLM industry which btw is responsible for the “independent contractor” category that is destroying the American social contract. Fascinating. Preorder it: www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/715421...

Senator, I have a bridge for sale.

This took 2 minutes of my time (half of which were screenshotting).

Me to switch from Axios.

Oh Jennifer...

Correct. If the birthdate field contains corrupt or mismatched data, it defaults to 1875-05-20, which serves as a flag. May 20, 1875, is the day the international standards and metrics treaty was signed. Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t know how anything works.

This is bananas, like the movie

NEW — In an alarming email last night reviewed by me, Coast Guard members learned that 1,135 members' direct deposit account routing information was compromised due to a data breach from unauthorized access. It was only discovered because an officer “reported anomalous activity” on their account.

Here's what Harvard Law School said about this alum

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Never mind.

What are some shows.

From Greg Storey, a list of “ways to take in information without getting pulled under”. Including the Control Test: “Is this within my control? If yes, what’s my next step? If no, how do I adjust to move forward anyway?” [brilliantcrank.com]

500,000 metric tons of food may have spoiled due to the agency’s destruction. My god.

The resistance can be joyful, soulful, and Black as hell. @daniellemoodie.bsky.social and I talk about Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl show and why it was so important. www.youtube.com/watch?v=46GE...
