Somewhere in America, a young Hispanic girl is hiding in an attic writing a diary.

If a bill is so bad that you have to exempt entire states from its consequences to win the votes you need—just don't pass the bill!

Why do people in Washington state deserve Medicaid & SNAP cuts, but others don't?

This is plain wrong, and it's just no way to legislate.

Powerful words. By Eric K. Ward, a longtime civil rights leader

“I will not moralize murder. I will not intellectualize annihilation. I will not accept an “either/or” world where only one people get to breathe.” …

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

The Secretary is unfit to lead.

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:
18f.org

Today, in a meeting at the White House, the only person actually defending American interests was Zelenskyy.

Let that sink in.

Hey, here’s some of what @thedemocraticparty.bsky.social did today 👋🏽
