Kudos to the @thepolicypractice.bsky.social! It is important to preserve this #library and body of knowledge resource - hard to believe that this has been erased in the last 80 days of one U.S. administration.
To make USAID documents on PEA and TWP accessible, and preserve institutional knowledge, The Policy Practice has created a dedicated section in their online library for USAID materials.

This historic filibuster from Corey Booker is so uplifting - filled with love for America which I've heard little of lately!
I'm not a programming guy but MSNBC and CNN should be airing this Cory Booker thing in the same way you take over programming if there's a no-hitter or a basketball player with 60 points in three quarters. It's a physical feat! Cut in for this kind of thing. Costs nothing, gooses ratings, good TV.
