Happy departure eve to me! My MIL has been visiting and it’s been less than stellar, so… a typical visit. She asked me if I’m able to find shoes that fit my size 11 feet because “OMG that’s huge!” Later, as I weeded the yard while she sat and watched, she asked me what I was making for dinner.

So they can plan airstrikes and conduct government business via text/chat apps but we have to stand in long lines to vote in person with a government issued picture id?!

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

NEW STATEMENT FROM CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS:

"For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose."

The White House claims planes bearing migrants to El Salvador were in international waters off the Yucatán, so that’s why they ignored the court order to turn them around.

International waters, eh? Isn’t that the Gulf of *America* now?

Holy shit. The United States was not invited to the NATO summit on Ukraine in Paris on March 11.

There’s no other meaning:

The United States was just benched for colluding with the enemy.

What happened to you, America...

#TrumpCrimeSyndicate represents something even worse than the end of the Transatlantic Alliance. We are facing a new threat from the West!

What went on in the Oval Office was disgusting. You know Trump and Vance went somewhere private afterwards and bro-gratulated themselves until Trump came in his diapers.

Far too many antivaxxers conveniently forget herd immunity is the reason why they don’t get polio and the like. They think they’re immune when in fact their community has been keeping them from major illness. When stupidity runs rampant, disease will follow.

I worked for an arch firm who has contracts with several NPS regions. 50% of their projects are government work. While they’re not federal employees they will be impacted by the layoffs/funding gaps. As will the engineers, contractors and suppliers. This is the ONLY trickle down that “works”
most people know someone who works for the federal government in some capacity

and even the assholes who think all federal employees are moochers tend to make a personal exception for their buddy Jim

everyone is going to hear stories of how cruel and capricious this is
im probably just being optimistic but it feels more and more like this strategy of rather indiscriminately and smugly firing a shitload of Americans who serve their country and don’t do political jobs will probably just start pissing off ppl who don’t pay attention to politics.

Having worked in the private sector as a contractor for the NPS I have a lot of thoughts about the DOGEy crew and the weekend email demanding accountability. The job I had in the private sector was extremely demanding. Someone I used to work with called it toxic perfectionism, which is accurate.

Start assembling a general strike with the public, be very public about potentially shutting down what’s left of the federal government by refusing to pass the debt ceiling, publicly call their Republican colleagues craven shitweasels, the list goes on and on and on and on and on and
