"There are plenty of contractors going under".
A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.
PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

We told you it was about whiteness. If it was clear enough before, it’s clear now.
Trump paused the refugee program, but when it comes back online, it will focus on resettling white South Africans (Afrikaners) who are “victims of racial discrimination.” (Camilo/CBS)

Palestine is not a symbol. Not a metaphor. Not a trending topic. It is a land with a people who sing, grieve, love, and fight for a future they are told they do not deserve. And yet, they exist. And yet, they resist. And yet, they will win.
