NEWS: Sources tell me that DOGE is setting its sights on the Department of Labor next. DOL workers have been ordered to give DOGE access to whatever they ask for—or risk termination.
“We’re supposed to stop everything we’re doing and do whatever the DOGE kids ask… It feels dirty and illegal.”

Hear me out —
If parents call colleges freaked about their FAFSA data being leaked, schools may have to issue statements — which would reach a whole lot more families about how warped this is.
Organizing isn’t always calling electeds. Sometimes it’s just calling people with a bigger megaphone.

One of my favorite things to do while traveling is to watch a highly edited version of Titanic on cable because somehow it’s always on.

My new piece for @themeteor.bsky.social: “Unlike the manosphere, which thrives online by feeding anger and fear, I’m advocating for real, face-to-face relationships that foster compassion and collaboration. The womansphere won’t just build ideas, but bonds.”
Break Up With the Manosphere
Trump’s victory wasn’t just a loss for the women who voted against him; it was a cultural rejection of female power facilitated in large part by the manosphere.

Sen. Tim Kaine tells federal employees to ignore Trump’s offer to quit with pay for months. “Don’t be fooled. He’s tricked hundreds of people with that offer. If you accept that offer and resign he’ll stiff you just like he stiffed the contractors. He doesn’t have any authority to do this.”

If you’re a federal employee, you should know this is a lie. Congress hasn’t appropriated these monies and so it’s literally not there to be spent. Also, federal agencies are limited by law to a max $25K payout in the case of restructuring.
BREAKING 🚨 🚨 🚨
President Donald Trump's administration is set to offer every single federal worker the chance to take a "deferred resignation" with a severance package of roughly eight months of pay and benefits.

Hey Google, maybe New Mexico should be New America? (We are Idiocracy.)
Google said it would follow the Trump administration in renaming the Gulf of Mexico once the new name is updated in government sources.

I hope every Democrat in Congress understands there can be no deal, under any circumstances, that attaches conditions to disaster aid. Once you let them set that precedent, they’re going to use it to fuck with your state too.
REPORTER: Will you insist on voter ID as a condition for disaster aid for California?
MIKE JOHNSON: We have been lamenting the lack of voter security there for some time. We were deeply concerned in this last election cycle and we saw 3 of our seats frankly slip away from us in California.

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.
