It’s almost as if USAID was a pillar of American soft power and influence in the world

It’s almost as if it was entirely predictable that America’s adversaries would work to fill the void left by USAID’s destruction

It’s well known that I was on The Apprentice. We were all covered by NDAs at the time, but mine has now expired. And do I ever have some tea to spill. I’ll post it later today after consulting once again with my attorneys.

The Trump administration has canceled every grant for the Bureau of International Labor Affairs, which is devoted to combating child labor & forced labor. Two former cabinet members, Labor Secy Julie Su & US trade rep Katherine Tai, argue that this will harm workers in the US as well as abroad.
Global Working Conditions Matter for American Workers
The Trump administration has cut programs that help prevent forced labor and child labor. This will suppress wages everywhere, including the U.S.

SCOOP: DOGE notified the Institute of Museum and Library Sciences (IMLS) today that the entire staff is being put on administrative leave effective immediately, I’ve learned from an agency source.

They’ll be cancelling huge swaths of grants/contracts and starting a Reduction in Force (RIF).

Assuming we make it through the whole “prevent fascists from taking over our government” thing, this country needs to follow through with a very uncomfortable conversation on getting rid of Fox News permanently.

They are a hostile propaganda arm for evangelical white nationalists.
ABC News: "An unthinkable breach of national security."

CBS News: "An unthinkable breach of national security."

MSNBC: "An unthinkable breach of national security."

CNN: "An unthinkable breach of national security."

Fox News: "We've all texted the wrong person before."

This letter from Paul Weiss chair Brad Karp makes things worse. Basically offers rationale and justification for everyone else following in Paul Weiss’s footsteps and capitulating to Trump. BLUF: We capitulated and everyone else should as well.

This will be Paul Weiss' most enduring shame. Performatively denouncing an honorable man and a former partner in order to please an autocrat.

"Paul Weiss has acknowledged the wrongdoing of its former partner Mark Pomerantz."

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

I’m sick to death of people saying we’re “descending” into fascism. The fascism is ALREADY here. THIS IS WHAT IF FEELS LIKE.
And if you’re not feeling it, it’s probably because you’re one of the “good Germans.”

The 'Threat to Democracy' Is Over
It's time to admit that the fascism we feared is already here.

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:

“It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...
NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates
The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help
