I was (probably mass) sent this via Handshake. I can’t believe how much money and effort goes into propaganda and brainwashing youth. “Committed to relentless execution” is scary. In my work, I also am pretty committed to relentless execution or excellence, but mine has a conscience.

Some Americans Have Already Been Caught in Trump’s Immigration Dragnet. More Will Be. Federal immigration authorities have a history of wrongfully detaining U.S. citizens. Advocates warn that the Trump administration’s immigration policies mean that more citizens will get caught up in ...

ICE's indiscriminate arrests put everyone's civil liberties at risk.

chatgpt has fully broken-through to every facet of the corporate environment. I'm spending a not-insignificant amount of my time every week now explaining to people that just because chatgpt told you that something was possible doesn't mean that it a) is or b) even exists

The guy whose daddy bought his way into Wharton, the guy whose grades were so shitty he's never disclosed them – that guy just destroyed the Department of Education. This is what dystopia looks like. This is what Fascism looks like.

This isn’t Donald Trump’s America.
This isn’t any president’s America.

It’s ours, and we the people will fight for it.

Money talks

Just wonderful writing on the 60 Minutes piece on President aMusk dismantling of USAID

"The world's richest man cut off aid for the world's poorest people."

Well done.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

Mmm, middle-aged romance.

More of this, America.

Supporting strikes are important. Our local King Soopers (Kroger) are on strike for two weeks. Is that a convenient place to shop? Yes. Are we going to shop there? No.

Today I showed support with supplies and said how proud I am of them. It’s not much, it’s not perfect, but it’s something.

HIV, transgender care and other federal websites go dark Several CDC pages were taken down Friday afternoon. Some redirected users to other sections of the site.

I wonder how this will trend and if it’s a reliable poll. It was higher even though it is showing an increase here. It’s up and down as time passes like a stock’s prices, but I’m interested in the overall trend.

54% is crazy 😭

This is intentional.

It’s ridiculous. This is dangerous and wasteful and serves no good purpose. How can a government do this to its people? And if it can and does, it should be clear to anyone that it’s not a government that serves its people but rather one that abuses them. There should be loud outcries everywhere.
