Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...
A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data
A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

Who are the people behind DOGE? ProPublica has confirmed the identities of 66 staffers affiliated with Elon Musk.

On Thursday, April 17 at 4 p.m. ET, hear directly from our reporters about their findings.

I wrote an open letter to Trump supporters.

Not to argue about policy—but to ask if the dismantling of constitutional government is what they truly meant to vote for.

I hope you’ll read it.
An Open Letter to Trump Supporters
I want to speak directly to those of you who have supported Donald Trump, whether in 2016, 2020, or now.

When we connect personally, emotionally, and through community we can defeat ingrained fear and prejudice. Facts and figures don’t resonate as a cohesive message to the public. It takes intelligence and courage to admit your beliefs were based on ignorance and are willing to change.

Rolling back EPA protections is something that all Americans should oppose. Here is my grandfather in 1937 with his firefighter buddies in Etna, PA. A blast furnace released so much pollution that people had to change their clothes at noon from all the ash. Is this really what we want?
