18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people:

Direct File is live and having an incredible tax season. Taxpayers are able to successfully import info the IRS has about them and user satisfaction remains 🚀 high.

The product team is predominantly in house, increasing its ability to deliver an awesome product 👏

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:
18f.org

18F staffers- who were summarily fired en masse overnight- issue statement expressing shock, bewilderment:

"18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated."

Folks (and this thing has gone around quickly), it's still unclear *what* has been "deleted"; as many of you have noted DirectFile remains active. Part of the danger of Government-By-Unelected-Nutball is that what's actually *true* is a moving target.

If you RT'd my initial post, RT this as well.

And in other news, ending DEI through reporting and monitoring efforts feels like modern day McCarthyism

Just occurred to me that Elon is likely obsessed with naming everything X because of its semblance to the swastika

But since this post is change my advice a bit and recommend a meter socket adapter instead like ConnectDER

FCC boss Jessica Rosenworcel issues a statement saying she's stepping down from the FCC in the wake of Trump's victory. And while she discusses the great pride she's had in leading the FCC there's absolutely no indication given that her successor intends to dismantle the entirety of her accomplishments

FCC boss Jessica Rosenworcel announces she's stepping down in January.

At no point in the statement does she communicate even the faintest sense of ideological alarm to the public that her successor intends to demolish the entirety of broadband consumer protection and all of her accomplishments

Miss you too!

Anyway if you're a Democrat - or just care about democracy & ensuring more voter participation - you should be doing everything you can to bring mail-only voting to your state.

I know this isn’t exactly strategy but I’ve decided to surround myself with people I adore and have a good time, do a lot of yoga, and recharge. It’s going to be a tough four years ahead, but I’m in it for the long-haul. Let’s all take care of each other and find moments of joy ❤️

Theory: we won 2020 because of Covid and national vote-by-mail. A win was within reach this year but-for limited mail ballot access. Just look at WA, OR, UT, and CO!

I’m not ready to work alongside a hostile federal government. To my friends at DOE, FERC, and various other federal agencies: we need you. The states need you

Quite proud of being an early adopter even though I’m not quite active here. I need to take the plunge and switch over entirely!

USPS' long-awaited new mail truck makes its debut to rave reviews from carriers The Postal Service’s new delivery vehicles aren’t going to win a beauty contest. They're tall and ungainly, with outsize windshields, thick bumpers and duck-bill hoods.

The new US Postal Service truck looks like it was drawn from memory by a 6-year-old child and I’m here for it.

I just realized this is the first time I didn’t say “sorry for your loss” because losing Steve Albini felt like a collective loss for all of us
