I read this yesterday, and the post stuck with me.
I believe if you’re here— you’re not in a “fuge state.”
You know what’s at stake; you’re taking action by staying aware and spreading the word.
It’s good to be here with you 💚

Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933.
I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.

Federal workers are held accountable to their supervisors and the American people - not Elon Musk and his DOGE cronies. It’s time for my colleagues on the other side of the aisle to stand up for our civil servants. It’s time to #pushback. See part one of my message here:

I just got a report that a terminated employee from another agency got their job back after replying to the termination email with their good perf appraisal.
If you are still connected, might as well try. It makes for good documentation if nothing else.
Let me know. So far only this one anecdote.
