This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.
More accurate, fewer words;

"There are plenty of contractors going under".

A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.

PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

Trump and Vance confirmed that “America First” means “Russia First.” These “patriots” are puppets.

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.

Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

The American Bar Association has just called upon every attorney, regardless of their political views, to join them & stand up for the rule of law & at minimum insist that our government "follow the law."

Every lawyer has an ethical responsibility to do so.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a broad spectrum, meaning every individual experiences it differently. The DSM-5 categorizes ASD into three levels based on the level of support needed.
Autism is not a one-size-fits-all, each autistic person has unique strengths and challenges.

Been a basketball fan for a long time. Tonight was the first time I’ve seen someone involuntarily vomit during active play. Hope that Duke player is ok! #gopack

Trump, who has claimed undocumented immigrants are fueling a crime wave in America, has begun his mass deportations.

One of the oldest, ugliest lies is to falsely smear immigrants as criminals. Know the truth.

Dems would get much more traction finding and promoting people saying what they know and experience.

What has more impact, This man speaking his mind or the Dems speaking “in unison “ ?
You guys need to see this and take it in…

Wise words from someone who is a target. And he’s been listening.

“I got my critical thinking back and started doing my own research, which I’m guilty of not doing back then because they gaslight you so much,” Hemphill said. “It’s really weird when you come out of a cult. It’s like you look back and you go, what was I thinking?”

Does the South not know how to maintain roads during a winter storm?

Or

Does the South not have a budget to maintain roads during a winter storm?

Thoughts on reading vs. researching.

Was your “research” approved by an IRB or ERC?

Was your “research” accepted for publication by a peer reviewed journal?

Are you able to cite other peer reviewed references for your “research”?

Anyone else have this pet peeve? Just me, ok cool!
