This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.
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.

813 US billionaires held a record $6.72 trillion in wealth at the end of 2024.

The bottom 50% of Americans held roughly $3.9 trillion in wealth.

When 813 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Tulsi Gabbard huh? I’ll say this for Trump; he’s adept at getting the most wildly unqualified people into significant and impactful government roles. If the first three weeks is any indication these next four years are gonna be some kind of fuckery. Buckle up.

I am sick to my stomach at the sheer jubilation over on Twitter right now that Daniel Penny got away with murdering Jordan Neely, an unhoused Black man with mental issues.

It's disgusting.

The Bible-thumping Speaker of the House is working overtime to cover up credible allegations that Trump’s unqualified AG nominee committed sexual misconduct. We’re already plumbing new depths of depravity.

An attorney tells ABC News that one of his clients told the House Ethics Committee that she witnessed then-Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz having sex with a minor.

Gaetz may not make it; but the fact that Trump has rushed to name his personal lawyers to all of the top spots in the DOJ is of almost equal significance......
"If Gaetz becomes AG, he will take control of a department that recently was investigating whether to bring criminal charges against him for sex trafficking. It’s distressingly similar to Trump being able to take charge of a govt he sought to destroy."
Trump moves to burn down the rule of law
His cabinet nominations are obscene and augur dark days to come.

Now more than ever, it’s critically important for Democrats, progressives, and anyone concerned about social justice to see where the anger in America’s heartland has come from, to channel it toward its real causes, and to commit to taking power back from the big corporations, CEOs, and billionaires

Fascist regimes are run by liars, cheaters, and thieves. They do not solve problems, they create them through indifference. They’re incompatible with freedom. The stated goals of this fascist regime are to turn the US into a white christofascist nation.

Disturbing prediction from @pkrugman.bsky.social: If Trump's deportations really happen, inflation will spike, then MAGA loyalists will corrupt government info to mask it.

For autocrats, he says, "among their first targets are statistical agencies."

PSA: A religious think tank with close ties to Trump is a preparing a ‘Christian nationalist’ agenda for his second term. They're pushing for:
-Ending sex education in schools
-Ending surrogacy
-Ending no-fault divorce
-Revoking FDA approval of birth control
Be warned.

Amazon, Trader Joe’s, and SpaceX are all fighting in court to have the NLRB declared unconstitutional.
All three companies have a disgraceful history of worker abuse and union busting.
They can’t stop workers from organizing, so now they want to destroy the whole system.

"Hur’s report has given the media what they crave — a chance to engage in both-sidesism about Biden and Trump, allowing for breathless horse race political coverage rather than a solemn reckoning with the magnitude of the threat of another Trump presidency."
Why the Hur report triggers bad 2016 flashbacks
It's like James Comey and "but her emails" all over again.
