We’ve just had three more drops coming in from different directions. laz, to runner: You’re coming in from the wrong direction! Runner: I left my sense of humor behind. #BM100

Quick interloopal turnarounds and we have our first two runners on Loop 2. One runner described the course as “on the verge of perfection; there is no margin for error.” #BM100

Four drops so far and we know more are coming. The thing is, they are coming back to camp from all directions and in some cases cannot describe where they were. This is old school Barkley. #BM100

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

Donald Trump has reportedly spent an estimated $10.7 million worth of taxpayer money to play golf since his inauguration. This is happening as Head Start programs have struggled to access previously approved federal funding due to the Trump admin's illegal impoundment. Hello?

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Not just foreign aid: ALL federal aid. And clearly from the language used this garbage isn't coming from Trump. This smells like Stephen Miller and Heritage/Project 2025. And it's going to whollup Trump voters, who mainly live in impoverished red, taker states, hard. www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

Please remember that this administration is not “the government.” They are not governing. The government is not the bad guy. Trump and the oligarchs are the bad guys. They are dismantling “the government.”

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

While I’ve gratefully watched Bishop Budde's act of bravery remind us of the power of a single voice, my greatest fear is that she will be the only one of her kind; that in a few days she will prove to be an outlier, just a beautiful aberration. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dont-let-b...
