Not sure “you don’t deserve nice things” is the economic selling point they think it is.
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

BIG NEWS: We’re calling for a nationwide moratorium on new data centers. These facilities increase energy costs, consume huge amounts of water and expand dirty energy.

Cutting SNAP funding for food assistance would "help pay for tax cuts for the wealthiest business owners and households." 😠

Millions of Low-Income Households Would Lose Food Aid Under Proposed House Republican SNAP Cuts | Center on Budget and Policy Priorities
Substantial cuts to SNAP would mean households with low incomes in every state would lose support they need to put food on the table, worsening food insecurity and hardship.

People saying the left (broadly defined) did poorly in Germany seem to forget the left there is fractured. But it is remarkable that Die Linke made late moves after Vance’s idiotic speech in Munich.
Could have been a lot worse. Bad night SDP FDP and BSW for sure. Late high turnout seems to have helped die Linke! Bad night for Vlad and Elon. All that propaganda for AfD and 80pc plus said nein Danke. If the smaller parties fail to get 5pc overall CSU-SDP coalition can work

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
