Remote work doesn't thwart productivity. It boosts focus. Government workers are 12% more productive when randomly assigned to work from home. They're more efficient where it's quiet. Most people aren't shirking from home. They're escaping distractions and long commutes.

We had friends & allies around the world based on alliances & relationships that were built over many decades. In one month, Trump has torched them all. Now our friends are Putin, Orban, the crypto scammer in Argentina, and the guy in El Salvador offering us mercenary prisons.

When are we going to start acknowledging this is 100% on the shoulders of ALL Republicans from the 1990s until now? It’s not just Trump and MAGA. The GOP has enabled, emboldened and empowered everything that is happening today FOR DECADES.

Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

What part of authoritarian did you not understand?

For all us conscientious folks who tend to try to eat healthy things… this popular brand’s CEO is the father of the DOGE big balls guy whose grandfather was a KGB agent. You know what to do. www.dailydot.com/debug/lesser...

Alarmed leaders of the Social Security Admin opened investigation into an employee they believed was improperly sharing info with Musk DOGE, violating privacy & tax laws. So Trump has hired him as our new acting Social Security Chief www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

You fire all the JAGs if you don’t want to be held accountable for your actions. The pattern expands.

Republicans are getting rude awakenings in town halls across the United States. Here is our message:

This gets my vote for tweet/post of the year. This is a RED ALERT post. This is exactly why he’s doing it.

🚨Texas Measles Outbreak 💢From 58 cases - 90 in 3 days 💢Largest in over 30 years Senator Schatz (D-HI): For the first time ever, we will have a Health Secretary who has actively helped cause outbreak instead of to contain them." #Voices4Victory

At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

This hits hard.

The National Institutes of Health had to stop considering new grant applications, delaying funding for research into diseases ranging from heart disease and cancer to Alzheimer's and allergies.

Wise man…

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Der Spiegel is HUGE PUBLICATION NOT ONLY GERMANY BUT EUROPE "VERRATEN" German for BETRAYRD

Pay attention to this. Replacing JAGs with loyalists enables whatever orders Trump and Hegseth issue to be interpreted as lawful.

Doctors hold no greater oath than the one to their patient. It’s why I will continue to use the platform I have over the next 4+ years to tell you the truth, especially with our profession under attack. Professional ethics is all we have.

"I just hope Canada is proud. Cause every player in that room is proud to be a Canadian…Canada needed a win. The players beared that on their shoulders & took it seriously. This one was different. This wasn't a win for themselves. This was a win for 40+ million people...” - Coach Jon Cooper 🇨🇦
