You might not see it in the mainstream media, but over 10,000 people protested today at Tesla showrooms across the country, another 10,000+ rallied in support of national parks, and more than 1,000 gathered in Vermont to protest Vance’s visit.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.
More accurate, fewer words;

"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.

I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai, you should be ashamed of yourself. Renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America on your app is embarrassing. I just deleted Google Maps. For now Apple Maps still lists it as the Gulf of Mexico, but I’ll be watching.

All that work to become a billionaire for nothing.

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.”

Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

The United States can no longer be counted on by anyone. Except Putin, that is.
“I’m here today to directly and unambiguously express that stark strategic realities prevent the United States from being the primary guarantor of security in Europe.”

The National Consumer Voice for Quality Long-Term Care has issued a report on the impact of staffing on resident care in nursing homes. Staffing requirements are under attack by the nursing home industry, whose lobbyists are arguing to reduce the current requirements.

Self-limiting beliefs are chains of anxiety and self-doubt that keep you stuck.

You have that power to change your mind. Go get it.

I'll summarize the whole podcast genre:

" If you are entertaining, people will listen to you and buy what you are selling. Including politics "

They will not check your background, your education or fact check you

It's a podcast. They are trying to kill time. Entertainment sells.
This is the SEMINAL POLITICAL PODCAST of 2025. Podcasts like this are EXACTLY how young men will consume and understand politics.

Dem strategists should study every single second of it and recognize this is their new reality for reaching young men. Guaranteed.
