Please stop saying it saved money until you understand the value of what was cut. They are downsizing, and if the stuff getting cut had real value, its not a saving.

helluva thread from the hellsite about the comically bad “savings” doge claims to have found (sorry for the weirdly sized screenshots, I had to squeeze everything into only 4 of them)

History buffs will know that every authoritarian leader eventually converges on some version of: "I *am* the state. I can not break the law, I am the law, the law is instantiated in me." Our march to authoritarianism so far has been excruciatingly by-the-book. Hitting every beat. No surprises.

Who gets louder boos this year: Evander when FCC goes to Providence Park or Lucho when Dallas visits TQL?

Just received this photo from a friend of a warehouse in Kinshasa. These are tuberculosis medications--ALREADY PAID FOR--that aren't being distributed due to the Trump Administration's stop work order. TB treatment is being interrupted in SO many patients around the world. What does that mean? (1/2)

This is as good a summary as any of Trump's approach to government: it's awful and I don't know anything about it

the OTHER thing about the white house’s anti-diversity push is that like old fashioned segregation it is explicitly an effort to undermine unions! like c’mon! don’t be stupid!

What the hell. Annie Duke won the World Series of Poker. I have no doubt she can assess risks, perhaps she's even a "decision expert." But the first person to talk to is A LAWYER WHO KNOWS ABOUT FEDERAL EMPLOYMENT AND THUS THE VALIDITY OF THE DUBIOUS OFFER. Talk to one before literally anyone else.

At. Gunpoint. Musk is telling duly appointed and security cleared government officials that they will be shot if they don't turn over to Musk sensitive information to which he has no right. In any other country, we'd call it a coup.

Mainstream media outlets and social media platforms have found a way to legally bribe the President of the United States. Surely this won't encourage him to file more meritless lawsuits against anyone who dares speak against him. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/30/b...

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

If a Black President pardoned a Black man who immediately got into a fight with the cops and was killed, we’d literally never hear the end of it. So, please, Democrats, spin out your Matt Huttle ads. Just call him “Cletus Horton” and be done with it.
