Bluesky suspended Sarah Kendzior today for no reason whatsoever. She just shared excerpts of her articles, which were as always incisive and not offensive at all. Hey @pfrazee.com this is super not OK. I know her- we've interacted a fair bit via chats and her work is essential.

Since January, Trump's Treasury has quietly gutted enforcement of the corporate alternative minimum tax — a huge boon for big business and wealthy investors.

Meanwhile, he's led an all-out assault on Medicaid, SNAP, and other programs that help the poor.

According to data from Challenger, Gray & Christmas, a private firm that collects data on workplace reductions, Abha Bhattarai of the Washington Post reported, U.S. employers have announced 1.1 million #layoffs so far in 2025. That number rivals job cuts during the Great Recession of 2008 and 2009.
1.1 million • Total US casualties in major #military conflicts since the Revolution

1.2 million • Total US Dead from #Covid, so far. Additional 300/wk still dying. That’s a plane crash a week.

Please share these powerful lessons from Margaret Heffernan on the dangers of #WillfulBlindness

"Even so, the plagues shall not be slack to come upon the earth, and the world shall mourn, and sorrows shall come upon it on every side."
