Trump is calling a bill that he doesn’t understand the only way to save America, and 50 people who mostly DO understand it - and hate it - just voted for it because the guy who doesn’t know what’s in it told them to.
What a clusterfuck.

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

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.

Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out.
They gut the FAA.
Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted.
Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

Worry is unproductive anxiety, a loop of fear without action. It drains energy and fuels stress. Concern, on the other hand, is focused awareness; it identifies problems and seeks solutions. Worry traps you; concern empowers you. Shift from "What if?" to "What can I do?" and turn fear into progress.

If the IRS is a bureau of the Treas Dept - and Musk takes it over why isn’t that considered an illegitimate department that we no longer have to send our tax dollars to? He wasn’t elected/hired to run/interrupt etc that dept. Isn’t it now considered an illegitimate arm of the USA and its people? 🤷🏻♀️
