We’ll have estimates later today, but small towns are really showing up. You can tell, it’s catching local media off guard. Reporters are like, “Wow, we didn’t expect this kind of turnout here.” As for the comments on those stories, ignore the usual MAGA noise.

Since I don’t have a ton of folks I know IRL over here, my posts can have a bit more tea 🥴😂

Things no one prepares you for when you leave a toxic work place for a great work place: getting no substantive comments on a report and being told it was really nice 🥹🥹🥹

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

Of course the Democrats will be going to Houston to find and interview voters who were laid off , to ask them what their expectations of the new administration were and how they feel they are doing at the moment. And posting here and everywhere. Right ?
On Fox Business this morning, Chevron Chair and CEO Mike Wirth discusses all of the records that the company has broken last year.

"Record" production, record distributions to shareholders, etc...

Yet they're laying off 15%-20% of their workforce.

Vile.

This is extra dumb because “cultural heritage” is literally a field of study 🙃 almost all Section 106 work in the US is “cultural heritage” it’s the combination of archaeology and history
🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Demand prison time for Musk, only Congress has the legal mandate to get rid or cut USAID. Cutting off the aid will cause thousands of deaths, especially among women and children around the world. That’s called mass murder.

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.

Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.
We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.

The Trump Administration’s hiring freeze has led the National Parks Service to cancel job offers for seasonal employees. We are concerned this could leave our parks understaffed during the busy summer season, which sees over 100 million visitors annually.

Rep. Dan Goldman: "Matt Gaetz is currently under an ethics investigation that was started after a serious criminal investigation for sleeping with underage women... The idea that you would put somebody who clearly has such a vendetta against the DOJ *in control* of the DOJ... is scary."

Kind of a joke, kind of serious test of the wish factory - @bencollins.bsky.social y’all need any archaeologists/anthropologists to start combing through the Infowars collection and archive anytime soon? 😅😂 I have some very specific artifact curation and digital archives skills that may help!
