@lindarawles.bsky.social checking on you. Also asking a few people for history books they believe are truest to real history. Wanting some more hard copies

People already don't remember 9/11 Some..don't recall Covid shutdown. I fear many will not remember before Trump and our Constitutional norms. We can't go back, and maybe we shouldn't, but what is on the other side.

@lindarawles.bsky.social Thoughts? www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

In a dangerous and complex world, it’s not enough to be strong. You must also be smart. ~ H.Clinton www.nytimes.com/2025/03/28/o...

National security screw up bad/dangerous/lazy/foolish. Not adhering to the President's Records Act worse/criminal/sketchy The fact that no one in this administration will conduct an official investigation against itself. Lawless.

Walking toward the light

@sarahspain.com Based on the current trajectory of US foreign policy, do you think that there could be countries that boycott LA Olympics ? And our once Fandom across the globe turns to jeers and being villified on the sport stage?

Such a good article @jvl.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

@lindarawles.bsky.social checking in. How are you doing? As much as I've been thinking, all this destruction is abt $$; I think now it's about our data that was in govt silos...and now DOGE is crashing the silos/using AI to "audit"/farm our data ao Elon can have the most powerful AI

Follow the money. And don't send the fox into the hen house to "audit" government inefficiency.

Public GOP support of program cuts EXCEPT...when it impacts their state. --- VA Gov Younkin (R) wants aid package bc of cuts (federal employee cuts) AK Murkowski (R) wants an exception for cuts (DEI cuts Tribal impact) IA Senator Grassley (R) wants exceptions (farmers impacted)

This.

Comparing Hunter to Elon is ridiculous.

People from the tech world tend to assume that “efficiency” is easy to find. All you do is A-B test and then let the algorithm do its job. That's not how governments work. We don’t need to spend money on pandemic planning until we do. We We don’t need to spend money on weapons systems until we do.

As i prepto file my taxes electronically ... www.cbsnews.com/video/former...

I can relate to Elons approach to budget cuts. It's like my dieting strategy... if I stop eating candy I'll be healthier. Neglecting the importance of balanced nutrition and exercise.

If the court rules against your argument, one can rework your argument and file again. Which is different than defying the ruling. Unless the SCOTUS opens door to Presidential immunity. Welcome to gangster government.

Hypothetically... if you aren't registered to vote and the Save Act is passed, your legal name needs to match your name on your birth certificate. Who changes their names? Women. www.americanprogress.org/article/the-...

Dems..failure is fighting over the process. Maga...just breaking stuff

Elon doesn't care about polls....just $$ These cuts aren't about system improvement or backlash of DEI, it's about creating room for the tax cuts for the billionaire boys club.

Help me understand... I heard 47 say America First 1,000,000+ times and now... We are "cleaning up" Gaza Invade Greenland. Panama Canal and Canal. ?

Negotiation 101

"Trump is acting like a king because he is too weak to govern like a president. He is trying to substitute perception for reality. He is hoping that perception then becomes reality. That can only happen if we believe him." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/02/o...

Keep sharing the other people involved in 47s government dismantling. Accountability matters. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

IMO we must shift our arguments from DEI and January 6th (not forget them...they are just losing backwards thinking debates)... We must micro focus on the decisions 47 makes and the management of his team to implement. Focus on the legality, loss of rights, and constitutionality.
