Brave to @jeffstein.bsky.social, WaPo's chief economics correspondent, for not wasting any time in stating what must be stated. Hopefully the first of many.

Delighted with with our group in Referral Worthy. We've planted some strong seeds, and I can't wait to see where everyone lands in 10 weeks. No matter what you think, "Oh man, I've gotta get that handled this quarter/year/etc" - there's 100% another biz owner feeling the same thing.

Yesterday was the first time since the inauguration that I found myself caught in a very particular kind of indecision—the kind that doesn’t just hum in the background but takes up residence in your chest. The kind that divides you clean in two.

I was nine the first time I signed a permission slip for my mom.

She was a bartender. Nights, weekends. By the time she got home, the forms were crumpled at the bottom of my backpack, and the decision was already made: forge the signature or miss out.

Hold the fuck on — the Department of Government Efficiency, the entity which claims its mission is to end “wasteful spending”, was given SEVEN MILLION TAXPAYER DOLLARS to cover its “expenses” in the span of a single week?!?!

Are you fucking kidding me?!?

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

I see more criticism here of Democrats in Congress than I do condemnation of Republicans.

And yet it is the GOP who are enabling Trump.

It tells me a lot when I see you regularly bash our side but say nothing, ever, about the other.

Reflect on your choices. You may be helping the fascists.

Got caught saying nice things behind my colleagues back. GUILTY! It's gonna happen again. I'm a repeat offender.

Nothing reminds you what a dweeb you are faster than video editing and having to see all the dumb faces you make on repeat.

Anyone who thinks content creators don't have a real job should be forced to sit in front of a camera and try not to look/sound like an asshat for an entire hour.

Ngl, the emails I written for my list that go out over the next 10 days? Top tier. Easily some of my best work ever.

One of them I've been dying to share for the last month. (It is hilarious, and yes, I will share it here because everyone deserves the story that's in it.)

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran.

Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.
