I lost my faith in NYT several months ago, so this isn’t surprising to me at all.

I think you answered your own question. They won’t distribute the funds, and they’ll say it’s because there’s no staff to do it.

Also I’d be deeply interested in seeing which nations are on which side of their ledger these days.

And yet this motherfucker is certain he has all these powers and there’s remarkably little happening to stop him from exercising them.

In my yard the squirrels are all named Ron Weasley, so that I can shout, β€œRon Weasley, behave yourself!” out the back door.

I hope that Congressional action, if it is taken, is enough. The administration hasn’t had any respect for Congressionally mandated funding so far.

If you and other Dems aren’t attending, what prevents Republicans from taking up all the seats and saying Democrats have abandoned their responsibilities? I don’t love the look of empty Dem seats.

I’ve been paying into Social Security since I got my first paycheck at 14 years old, and I’m sure as hell not going to roll over and let this administration decide I shouldn’t get the benefits I’ve funded for the past 34 years.

Returning to the US today after a week in London and I’m overcome by a feeling of dread about going back home. It’s been so nice to be in a place where the political leadership knows that Putin isn’t a role model for good governance.

Covid has some share in the responsibility for the 2020 drop, but this one he did all by himself.

I’m so glad you’re still here. You’ve re-taught me the library joy of my childhood.
