Oh wow. This is *by far* the worst “President” in the 250y history of this country. It’s going to be tough to watch as international trade goes from 100 to 10 in an instant. Already far worse than when COVID hit. Put on your seatbelt.

It seems concerning that we’re not seeing more about the misinformation campaigns of #FauX news, which effectively looks like a state-run propaganda engine… that in part enabled what is the worst worst administration in 250 years.

I recognize how contentious my statement will be to many. I don't say it lightly. I've been there. You either:
1. Stand up for the law and potentially get fired
2. Knowingly violate a court order (aka articipate in criminal activity)
For most this shouldn't be a difficult choice.

A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

The media needs to label these "Trump flu deaths" - make him own this failure.
First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year.
“'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'"
Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder.

F.D.A. Cancels Meeting of Vaccine Experts Scheduled to Advise on Flu Shots
The cancellation plays into fears among scientists who worry that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will use his position as health secretary to sow doubts about vaccines.

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.
We made this website to tell our story:

This is straight up graft and self-dealing, robbing the public commons to enrich his billionaire cronies. We have to call this out for what it is. The anti-woke B.S. was a rationale to steal what belongs to the citizens.

Has anyone used Localstack and liked it?
I feel like I’m mostly hesitant because I haven’t had the need or been compelled that it’s the right thing to use.
