Not a specific show only on that, no, but I’m sure it will come up on this week’s episode.
@joeypowell.bsky.social Is Inside Carolina gonna do a podcast on UNC's lack of a proven wing and if they missed out on Stojakovic because of a lack of money, or an unwillingness to pay?

So if he IS trying to crater the economy to gain fealty from major corporations and make in self leader forever, what are we supposed to do about it? Who is driving the Democratic Party right now to illuminate everything? We’re only two and a half months into this shit.

How firm is the hold of antivax beliefs?

How the anti-vaccine movement weaponized a 6-year-old’s measles death
Anti-vaccine influencers see the child’s death as proof — not of the danger of measles, but of their own debunked theories.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

Remember that time Biden cornered the entire Republican Party into denying they’d cut Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid for a $1T tax break for billionaires?
That was only a year ago. Now, the biggest earned benefits cut in history is in their budget.

More accurate, fewer words;
"There are plenty of contractors going under".
A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.
PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.
It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.
They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.
I’m happy to invest and/or help
