I talked with Atlanta's 11Alive for their show "The Take" today to discuss the prospect of yet another shutdown and the continuing impacts of the recent one.

"The greatest risk of putting the tenure of all federal employees at the whim of the president is not that he will fire them all; it’s that people like Ms. Comey will not seek out the work in the first place.'

This is so fucking tin-eared. You could be better than this, instead of trying split semantic hairs so you can claim some very-online victory for yourself. Put your energy where it's better served, and stop mocking the legit lived experience of others.

Are you a US federal employee?
In the absence of the FEVS this year, the Partnership for Public Service is administering a survey to the fed workforce to assess today’s federal employee experience.
Learn more and take the survey: ourpublicservice.org/psvs
so, no actual audit or report of what doge cut exactly?

Really important work by folks like @billresh.bsky.social and @davidlewisvu.bsky.social. The FEVS is an invaluable tool for assessing the health of the civil service. It's even better off in the hands of private researchers.

41.7 million people are losing their SNAP support... illegally. But here's one of the shiny toilets from where our president will be online trolling these families.

Currently hooked on "Mussolini: Son of the Century" on MUBI. It strips away the myth and exposes a hollow showman driven almost entirely by self-preservation and power. It may also be the most singularly relevant entertainment at any point in the last 20 years.

“The United States is cutting off the kind of foreign aid that keeps children alive for 12 cents a day, but it’s willing to invest far larger sums in a dubious effort to prop up a distant economy — while effectively subsidizing tycoons who made bad investments,” Nicholas Kristof writes.
All the things folks pretended were happening in 2022-23 under Joe Biden are actually happening now under Donald Trump

"Any strategy that takes on Trump must find a way to incorporate and exploit this truth: Trump and his key followers are criminal parasites on American society."

take a moment to really think about how hard Democratic leaders have had to work to somehow be losing to Trump on the issue of corruption

"...it’s hard for the administration to make accusations that workers are redundant, non-essential, or not carrying out its priorities when it doesn’t appear to have a transparent 'accounting of exactly who is in what position and what they’re doing.'”
