👀 @rephuffman.bsky.social on GOP's latest scheme to silence communities, gut environmental protections & shield billionaire polluters:

"Who is this legislation actually for? This bill is for corporate polluters & Big Oil donors so they can keep padding their pockets at the expense of Americans."

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

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!
Trump: "If you notice, every country that has the death penalty has no drug problem. They execute drug dealers. And when you think about it, it's very humane, because every drug dealer on average they say kills at least 500 people ... I don't know if our country is ready for it. I am ready for it."

I'm a huge fan of Dolly Parton. We're the same age and same height, but she can sing better.

We also share the same values, including that every child should have the chance to dream big and succeed.

Indiana Republicans should reverse these cuts. www.huffpost.com/entry/indian...
