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

Yesterday's Zelensky meeting was embarrassing. But to me it isn't nearly as embarrassing as other things that have occurred in the past four years. For example, all the innocent lives the U.S. has helped kill. Yesterday was the start of more innocent lives lost, however.

Sit silently as a group wearing shirts naming the concrete harms that DOGE cuts have caused with QR codes linking to fact sheets with more information on each issue. Musk. Ended. Ebola funding. It. Has. Still. Not. Been. Restored. Musk. Gutted. 18F. Which Saves. Taxpayers. $X billions. Each year.

It's pretty rich to hear a guy like Musk who is into crypto call Social Security, which has been in place for almost 90 years, a "Ponzi scheme." If rich people just paid the same percentage of their income in Social Security taxes the rest of us do, SSA would be solvent for generations to come.

Remember the warning issued to Trump last Nov by Putin aide Nikolay Patrushev, saying Trump's win came at the price of certain "obligations" he was expected to fulfil? I bet 1 of those obligations was the degradation of Zelenskyy staged on live TV from the Oval Office yesterday. Putin planned that.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share. snyder.substack.com/p/five-failu...

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

Republicans are increasingly uneasy with the Trump and Musk oligarchy and are now derailing Town Halls as infighting between ardent MAGA and those second thinking their positions escalates. #3E #EndOligarchy newrepublic.com/post/191891/...

Trump's US, where MAGA Nazis kidnap you if you speak out. This woman was assaulted and abducted for asking a question at a Town Hall. The MAGA speaker jeered on stage and thanked the staring crowd for being subservient. Those who tried to intervene were also attacked. #3E #EndImpunity

Israel supported Russia against Ukraine, now it’s trying to invade Syria. What more do you need?

Israel is trying to claim it’s “protecting” the Druze population just as Russia claimed it invaded to “protect” the Russian speaking population. However, Druze leaders have now come out to publicly reject Israel and embrace the new Syria government.

The uncomfortable truth about Israel is that it’s not just Netanyahu, it’s their entire system and right wing ideology which we allow to coerce our own policies and politicians. How many times in our lifetimes have we been told “we stand with Israel” despite Israel not once standing with us? Enough.

Mass protests in the territory Israel is invading, calling for Syria’s government to retaliate. The current government is trying to avoid being lured into a confrontation by Israel as it wants to prioritize rebuilding first. The signs read: “Syria has the right to defend itself”

Former Assadist troops and collaborators are now forming Israeli backed militias in Southern Syria. Israel may just implement terrorism on the new state to further justify its planned land grab. Expect Trump to back these efforts once the militias are ready to operate against Syrian troops.

Two software developers became quietly known in tech circles in the 2000s and were almost the reverse image of each other. Both developed web alternatives. Both developed alternatives to the current government model. The right has read Yarvin and it shows. The left has not read Marsh and it shows.

I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government.

Apparently for many in the disclosure movement, the executive branch ignoring the will of Congress only matters when it comes to UFOs. Federal funds for countless programs approved by Congress are now being unlawfully withheld, which seems to be applauded by those who railed against this for years.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.
