Hey @aoc.bsky.social my rep, @gluesenkampperez.house.gov is ducking us here in WA-03. Would love it if someone else could come meet with us here in SW Washington.
@aoc.bsky.social: "You have a right to see your elected member of Congress... Our job is to hear from people. And if you aren't doing town halls because your own residents and members of your community are upset with what you're doing, the answer is you’ve got to own your decisions."

The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster.
Why is SpaceX getting a free pass from DOGE cuts? 🤔

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.
We made this website to tell our story:

Dusting off my old Oxford English Dictionary and consulting carefully, I could not find "attack friends and submit to enemies" as a definition of the word "strength."

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

Please fix this headline, @financialtimes.com. There was _no_ meltdown from Volodymyr Zelenskyy. It was the allies of Putin—Trump and Vance—who melted down while a TASS reporter they invited into the Oval Office looked on to report back to the Kremlin. Don’t tarnish Zelenskyy over a Kremlinist plot.
