Before Trump took office, the number of people employed by the U.S. government was at about the same level it was 50 years ago…What has increased dramatically is spending on private contractors, who take profits from their taxpayer-funded contracts.

It was interesting touring the Edward R. Murrow shortwave transmitting station near Greenville, NC, yesterday. Seeing the equipment, kept working by skilled engineers, was like stepping back in a radio station time machine. Radio Marti broadcasts to Cuba from here.🎙️

More stories about the administration’s awful mismanagement need to be told. Some say government should be run like a business. Well no business would keep employees or managers who screw things up this much. Free article:

Sen. Duckworth makes an excellent point.
Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) said it's interesting Pete Hegseth is so up in arms about reducing standards for women in the military.
That's exactly what he's asking the Senate to do for him for SecDef.
