DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Laws Are Not Suggestions: How the CFPB Is Delivering for the American People - American Economic Liberties Project Under Director Rohit Chopra, the CFPB has held scammers like Wells Fargo accountable, returning billions of dollars of Americans’ hard-earned money to their bank accounts; fought back against Wall Street and Big Tech’s discriminatory and anti-competitive behavior; ensured violating the law can no longer be written off as just a “cost of doing business;” and restored financial freedom to millions of Americans held hostage by the credit reporting cartel.

The CFPB has:

-Returned $20B to victims of financial fraud
-Cracked down on junk fees
-Fought against politically-motivated debanking
-Protected veterans from predatory lenders
-Protected consumers' data from corporate abuse

Oligarchs want to reverse all of this.

Monday dispatch from the closet

Realize that 49.6 million students are at risk of losing critical services right now. This administration is attempting to intellectually hobble our future.

Living through inequities for our kids—excluding none. Show up for them.

I possess so much rage for our world right now. Protesting in my heart and showing up and caring for students who deserve a better future than this.

Partied pretty hard this weekend…

Chaos. Godless.

Some students fight when you tell them to draw what they want and choose to draw “dumb stupid things that aren’t art”
But they are truly my favorite things to come from the classroom.

A chilly weekend.
