Just learned from NPR that the federal government is the largest employer in the great Kansas City area, for example. I found it helpful to be reminded that, of course, this isn’t just about people who work and live in DC. Federal employees are in all of our communities.

Under fascism, no one is safe.
Universities stayed quiet as the admin targeted DEI & foreign aid, censored research, etc.
Now, they face devastating cuts to indirect cost rates, threatening research & operations.
Silence won’t protect institutions. It won’t protect people; it never does.

Trying to figure out why my latest TikTok has barely any views.
Realised I was discussing a book about a coup. And said ‘coup’ a whole lot. And didn’t censor the captions.
Ffs TikTok. For once I’m not actually taking about politics. I’m talking about a gay book with magic. And a coup.

The order does NOT have the force of law, but some hospital systems are too scared of trump to defend trans kids in their care.

The Teamsters have endorsed Democrats for president since '96. And despite the Dems saving pensions and retirement benefits for 2 million Americans, the Teamsters didn't endorse a candidate this cycle. Now, within a week of taking office, Trump gutted the NLRB.
