I just watched a story about a teacher in Idaho fighting back after being forced to take down a sign that said, "Everyone is Welcome Here."
This kind of stuff is beyond STUPID.
If someone is offended by a "Everyone is Welcome Here" sign, they have psychological issues that need to be dealt with.

A federal judge in Washington, D.C., ruled that DOGE is subject to government transparency laws, allowing the public to access government records—a legal defeat for the White House, which had designated DOGE as an office exempt from open records laws.

If you're a billionaire, $10 eggs might be just a "little disturbance." For most Americans it's a real issue.

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.
It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.
They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.
I’m happy to invest and/or help

Donald Trump's tax breaks for billionaires and billionaire corporations are NOT "cost free".
The real cost will be health care cuts for:
- New moms and their babies
- Grandma in the nursing home
- Kids with disabilities
Threatening your health care for billionaire handouts.

Lost in some of the outrage over this is that Trump's pick is LITERALLY unqualified. The law says a Chairman has to have been a vice chair, a service chief or held a combatant command. Caine hasn't done any of those and I don't think he was even the senior service general at a combatant command.

"Law and order" in the Trump era: if you bow down to the head of the U.S. government, he may help you - whether you're awaiting trial for sex crimes in Europe or doing time in the USA for physically assaulting police.
