I think it is pretty simple, is there a plan written down in any way, shape, or form? If yes, the GOP did not do anything because theirs is still two weeks out.

I support your reluctance that why I was offering a specific contact.

I was under the impression they stopped towing due to the regressive costs to people who often cannot afford it. Have you called the police? With that damage, I am wondering if it might be an abandoned stolen car. I can DM you a non emergency contact if you wish.

I give Bsky and those that have made the tools to curate credit, it has made this experience better than Twitter. It's not hard, during the main wave it was almost easy with all of the Starter Packs, but there is a learning curve. Lists (follow and block), labels, etc. allows for good curation.

Agreed. But, also, I think MedSky had a really good month, even worldwide content was great, people just needed to learn how to curate their feeds in a more timely manner. Too many just got overwhelmed with junk posts.

The CR continues the cuts from the OBBB this summer. So, the cuts were already made and will now continue through next Sept.

@kaine.senate.gov What a weak response. If your decision was as strong as you suggest you would defend that as your response to your colleagues. You voted to capitulate any negotiating power and to randomly eliminate a $28B dollar industry at the same time. All of it is simply bad leadership.

After José's arrest sparked outrage in August, DHS attacked him in a press release, calling him a "criminal illegal alien, not a firefighter." DHS has cited a 12-year-old drug delivery charge while failing to acknowledge the charge was dismissed.
