Bending to public outrage, the Trump administration rescinded its executive order to freeze federal spending. They showed us who they are and what they are willing to do at our children's expense to push their agenda. This reversal only demonstrates the need for all of us to speak truth to power.

Please subscribe to this very wholesome and funny YouTube channel run by my former colleague's 8-year-old son, who is currently going through chemotherapy ahead of a life-saving stem cell transplant.

If we can get him to 1K subscribers, he said he'll chug mustard!

Is the "temporary pause" of disbursement of all federal grants/loans an unlawful impoundment? It almost certainly is. A brief 🧵
NEW — OMB temporarily pauses all agency grants and loans programs.

Per copy of memo: "The use of Federal resources to advance Marxist equity, transgenderism, and green new deal social engineering policies is a waste of taxpayer dollars that does not improve the day-to-day lives of those we serve."

The Q for every member of Congress, above all, is what exactly they plan to do to defend the existence of an independent legislative branch. I believe the courts will eventually act, perhaps sooner than later. In the meantime, I might just put Schoolhouse Rock on repeat outside Grassley's door. /end

In 2014 Dutch scientists left a hamster wheel outside, to see if wild animals would use it like their domesticated counterparts.

The answer: hell yes! 734 visits from wild mice - plus rats, shrews, slugs ("running" being subjective here) & even frogs and snails.

The apparent reason: fun. Just fun.

The people now in charge of the Office of Personnel Management apparently don’t know how to scrub PDF metadata, and have exposed the original authors of the guidance they’re publishing. Two, Noah Peters and James Sherk, have links to the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025.
