It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

The police in Seattle are investigating a fire that damaged four Tesla Cybertrucks Sunday night, the authorities said. It wasn’t immediately clear what had caused the fire, but it came after a series of attacks against Tesla since its chief executive, Elon Musk, became an adviser to President Trump.

Remember, the president does not have the authority to unilaterally shut down the Education Department. Doing so would require an act of Congress and at least 60 votes in the Senate.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

The upside to being a theater artist is that it is rooted in the human being, in our gathering and our ritual of imagining and reflecting together. Defunded, funded or refunded the show will always go on. The stories never die

In Iowa Senate District 35, Trump won by 21% in November.

Tonight, in a special election to fill what was a GOP-held Senate seat, Dem Mike Zimmer defeated Republican Katie Whittington by a 52-48 margin.

This is a huge deal — the flip of a GOP seat to a pro-union, pro-public education Democrat.

The irony of course is we are seeing exactly WHY we needed DEI and antiracism and civil rights movement and black history month and on and on and on.....because this is what America has and continues to do if left unchecked

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.

Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.

But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.

They aren’t firing for a reason.
