Every senator and member of Congress should immediately and voluntarily disclose any stock, bond, or similar trades they have made in the last ten days.

And me.

This. Exactly this. @cortezmasto.senate.gov. You're complicit now.

No one - and I mean no one - thought he and other Senate Democrats would stand up. Worthless ...

I am begging people to read a history book

Stay in the service. Stick to the work."

In solidarity.

For all the federal employees out there.

From Gifford Pinchot, the 1st Chief of the Forest Service after being fired by Pres. Taft: "You are engaged in a piece of work that lies at the foundation of the new patriotism of conservation. Don't let the spirit of the service decline one-half inch. 1/2

Again, not a buyout. You will work through September and then resign. This is no buyout.

That’s not how the memo reads. You can let them know you resign now but you work through the end of September. That’s your resignation date (and probably the date the hiring freeze ends so cronies and those who will offer fealty to the king can replace those who left).

Amen.

Is there a “people in Reno who post about Reno things” starter pack? If not, I’d like to create one. Who would you suggest be included on it? Tag/link them here?

Go people. It’s exceptional! #oscars

@culinary226.bsky.social. This is who you’ve helped (and it’s not workers). I know you’re thinking that it’ll be different when they’re in Las Vegas. Be ready to perpetually fight; saving money on the backs of employees is a John Fisher hallmark. #FJF #selltheteam

Yep. What a bunch of snowflakes.
