If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.
If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

hey for anyone who might want to actually own their kindle books instead of renting them, or who might be thinking of switching to kobo etc and will want to convert them to epubs, you now only have one week before amazon kills your ability to download its ebooks www.theverge.com/news/612898/...
Amazon’s killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books
It’s bad if you like to keep ebook backup copies.

First the Super Bowl.
Now the Daytona 500.
He's not a real president -- he just plays one on TV.
And it's costing the American people TENS OF MILLIONS in extra, unnecessary, wasteful spending.
Maybe THAT is what "DOGE" should be cutting?

This. Especially Senate Republicans.
The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

Co-sign. Your phone number can get released unexpectedly if you send it to someone who is FOIA’d or sunshined. Academics, that includes emails to state university colleagues. Nuisance FOIAs are exploding. Send signal usernames.
Big ups to @signal.org @meredithmeredith.bsky.social for allowing usernames instead of phone numbers last year (signal.org/blog/phone-n...).
Washington basically runs on Signal right now and that one change has made reporting and whistleblowing way more private and secure.
