Sure, keep walking, but don’t forget to chew gum too. He thinks you can only watch one thing at a time. Make sure you spend some time, attention, and clicks-etc. on the other things going on right now that still matter too. He’s counting on you losing focus. Don’t.
Cost estimate of Senate tax cuts is out!
On an apples-to-apples basis, the Senate GOP tax bill costs $4.2 trillion, $403 bn more than the House.
However, the Senate has fewer (still some) "temporary" measures.
Take that into account, and it's more expensive, but the House is EVEN more expensive.

I need little indicators on social media that show how often a user uses “fuck”, because I actually don’t use it often, and very rarely at a person, but people don’t know that, so when I tell someone like Fetterman “F you” it just doesn’t carry the weight I’d like it to.

I thought you might like to know that I tracked down the origin of the “USAID gave $310 million to build a cement factory in Gaza” story.
A f***ing typo in a 2016 Palestinian press release. They accidentally wrote “USAID” instead of “USD.”

22 states are suing to block the Trump administration's illegal cuts to NIH research funding.
The lawsuit asks the court to declare the policy illegal and issue a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction preventing federal agencies from implementing the policy in the 22 states.

Senator Susan Collins is going to Mar-a-lago this weekend to meet with other R Reps. Call her and tell her not to betray the American people, that you know she knows full well what’s right, that you know she can get her courage back and STAND UP. (202) 224-2523

CALL YOUR REPUBLICAN REPS. Even if you’re a blue dot. Go on record with your opposition. It doesn’t take many calls to feel like a LOT to them. Make their phones ring off the hook. Force them to acknowledge that this situation is unprecedented.

This is an absolutely remarkable memo — and a betrayal of both the Constitution and the American political tradition. In the US, by *explicit contrast* with interwar fascist governments, the state is not supposed to be an extension of the personality of the chief executive.

Washington, D. C. 20530

MEMORANDUM FOR ALL DEPARTMENT EMPLOYEES
FROM:
SUBJECT:
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
GENERAL POLICY REGARDING ZEALOUS ADVOCACY ON BEHALF OF THE UNITED STATES'
"[E]xecutive Power." More broadly, attorneys are expected to zealously advance, protect, and defend their client's interests. Department of Justice attorneys have signed up for a job that requires zealously advocating for the United States.
The responsibilities of Department of Justice attorneys include not only aggressively enforcing criminal and civil laws enacted by Congress, but also vigorously defending presidential policies and actions against legal challenges on behalf of the United States. The discretion afforded Department attorneys entrusted with those responsibilities does not include latitude to substitute personal political views or judgments for those that prevailed in the election.
When Department of Justice attorneys, for example, refuse to advance good-faith arguments by declining to appear in court or sign briefs, it undermines the constitutional order and deprives the President of the benefit of his lawyers. It is therefore the policy of the Department of Justice that any attorney who because of their personal political views or judgments declines to sign a brief or appear in court, refuses to advance good-faith arguments on behalf of the Administration, or otherwise delays or impedes the Department's mission will be subject to discipline and potentially termination, consistent with applicable law.
' This guidance is not intended to, does not, and may not be relied upon to create, any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:y2tqoxl4zx7iuyh3rhbhdwv3/bafkreic4hwhm45xtfe5w2yb3y27ye4zw72ch2l2jydx3avbn6yxwllwbqi@jpeg)

Called my Senators and House Rep to demand they join the reps at USAID, or do the same thing at OPM or the Treasury.
One voicemail left, one mailbox full, one conversation with a staffer.
Tomorrow, telling the Senators to block all votes, & to address the tariffs before Canada turns off my power.

Government-wide censorship, freeze in funding, data compromise. Let's call this what it is: an authoritarian takeover. Nobody voted for this. They will take as much power as we give them. CALL your politicians now. Emails/letters are often ignored.

Trudeau’s speech is breaking my freaking heart. As a Michigander I’ve always considered myself a kind of honorary Canadian. We treat our coins interchangeably! At the risk of sounding frivolous, we’re *besties*.
