Embarrassing. No tax on tips will never be in this budget. Not happening. Promises made. Not kept.

Had a conversation with a non political person whose buddy works for the forest service and was 10 months into his job supplying hard to reach parts of a national forest and was fired. The guy talking to me was like “I don’t really think my buddy’s $50,000 salary is gonna balance the budget.”
most people know someone who works for the federal government in some capacity

and even the assholes who think all federal employees are moochers tend to make a personal exception for their buddy Jim

everyone is going to hear stories of how cruel and capricious this is
im probably just being optimistic but it feels more and more like this strategy of rather indiscriminately and smugly firing a shitload of Americans who serve their country and don’t do political jobs will probably just start pissing off ppl who don’t pay attention to politics.

Actor Issa Rae canceled her sold out event at the Kennedy Center after the orange felon placed himself as chairman to diminish, insult, trash the arts and calling it an infringement on the values of an institution that faithfully celebrated artists. This is how you do it. 💙👊👏

I’m going to continue to work until my computer access is revoked,” Lennox said. “Then I’m going to volunteer. I’m going to keep working as best I can to support the veterans. That’s what I’m here for.”

A Marine vet thought he found a 'home' working at the VA. Now he's one of 1,000 fired.
Andrew Lennox, who was terminated from the VA, noted the irony of the VA claiming it had fired some veterans to help veterans.

The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans.

Upholding our treaty obligations is not optional.

Trump is blocking the Associated Press from the Oval Office. Rather than stand up for freedom of the press, the rest of legacy media is taking advantage of AP's absence.

When this inevitably leads to AP cutbacks, the same legacy media will lament the plight of media decline.

Trump's democratic actions have been met with a litany of lawsuits. And though the courts have consistently ruled against him, some have suggested that Trump may ignore the orders.

At what point does the military step in? Isn’t that what often happens in dictatorships where the dictator goes insane? Isn’t the US military supposed to have a plan for everything?

Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this.

Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.
