Upon this response, JK burst into a million shards and a great wind scattered her unhappy soul beneath the arc of a newly formed rainbow.

Sending an email to employees asking them to list five things they did that week is a classic move from a manager who has no idea how to manage

we had a little worry that adjusting to being indoors would be hard for him, as he's been a stray most of his life, but i'm thinking that won't be a problem considering he looked outside briefly and then did this for 10 full minutes instead

This hits hard.

Just like we shouldn’t be firing FAA employees when commercial airliners are flipping upside down.

General CQ Brown is a patriot and hero. Firing him makes America less safe, but it will help bring about a Golden Age. For Putin.

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

Raskin: "It's becoming obvious to the American people that Elon Musk and Donald Trump are not opponents of corruption, they are agents of corruption."

Why did Hegseth just fire every top military branch lawyer? What did they refuse to sign off on? A Pulitzer awaits the reporters and outlet who can tell the public.

Here is the ad the Washington Post accepted and then rejected:

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” James Baldwin

🚨NEW: New York Attorney General Letitia James has won her federal lawsuit against Elon Musk, blocking DOGE from accessing American's private data. REPOST if you stand with James against Elon Musk!

firing for "too much DEI" is plainly firing a woman and a Black man on the presumption only white men can be qualified. this is disgusting biogtry.

that Trumpers think the US Postal *SERVICE* should be a profit-making enterprise exposes the fallacy in their conception of government

Up late watching the hockey last night, but still at his desk before 7:00 am. hard working cat!

Always stand up to a bully

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.
